FOOD A~DULTERATION.
Evidence TINT Germans Are Masters
in Imposing ON Consumers.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-It is to be
hoped that American food products are
purer than those sold in Germany, for,
according to a special report submitted to
the Department of State by United States
Consul Stephan at Annaberg, the Society
for the Prevention of Adulteration in Sax
ony in the past year has shown, by analy-
sis that no less than I7.9 per cent. of the
substances xamined in rs analyses con-
tanned Objectionable adulteration. The
only American product was dried fruits,
which were prohibited on the ground of
traces of zinc absorbed from the drying
tables. Oil of citron contained of that oil
only a small per cent, the remainder being
other ingredients and alcohol. Butter, par
ticularly from Austria, contained c%ocoanut
oil, tallow, cotton seed oil, ETC. Textile
fabrics We're dyed with poisonous colors
and wool stuffs, cotton mixtures up to So
per cent. The spices with which meats had
been prepared contained tannin; SauSageS,
living parasites. Fruit juices We're colored
with chemicals. A sample OF coffee was
i~mpregnated with a filthy ingredient. Wheat
flour was adulterated with rye -four, buck
wheat flour with starch. Bran was a COM
position of wheat bran, rye bran, sand,
dust, mites and mite eggs. Olive oil was
found to be nothing but grape seed oil per-
adulteration made that even experienced
merchants could not defect it. Wine sold
sour as vinegar. The sweet tokay vine was
adulterated with large additions of sugar.
In summing up the imports into Switz-
erland OF beef cattle for the first three
quarters of 1894, United States Consul Ger
maine, at Zurich, shows that 81, 1893 head
were imported at q cost of 26, 209, coo francs,
and he notes with regret that of this enor-
nous amount the United States furnished
but 226 head. which came by way of a trial
shipment via Genoa.
In a report to the State Department,
United States Consul Matthews, at Para,
