OUR FLOUR IN GERMANY.
The Increasing Demand There Sug-
Eests q Market.

Eests u Market.
Commercial Agent Moore. at Weimar.
Germany, has forwarded to the State De-
partment report on the consumption of
wheat and rye flour in that country. Since
1879. he says, the consumption Of rye bread
has steadily decreased. and wheat bread
shows a more than proportional advance.
AS the United States exports large quaa-
titles of wheat and wheat flour to Germany
this seems important. The year 1896 was
remarkable for extraordinarily large
consumption OF both bread stuffs. OF
wheat there was used 27S pounds per capita
and of rye Isl pounds per capita. This
Vas owing to large supply and small prices.
Last year rye sold for $2s.50 per 1.OOO
kilos and wheat 1891 for the same guam
tity. TIE prices of wheat and rye flour
per 48 pounds In that year were, wheat
-four. $517; rye. 1888. The -four imports
have steadily increased since 1880. with the
exception Of 1895. when they were slightly
lower than the previous year. The imports
are st:ll largely in excess of the exports.
The imports last year were 81, ,537 tons of
the value OF $1,475.a0O. The United States
furnished but 1910 tons. a comparatively
small quantity. and takes third place among
the countries exporting grain to Germany,
the Russian commercial treaty giving that
country a great advantage. American flour
is more expensive than any other kind, and
this fact accounts for small imports of that
article.

Frank Burgess Dangerously Stabs
HIS Partner, George Burnett.
An affray that may result in adding an
other murder to the already disgraceful list
Of 1896 occurred last night in the shoe shop
of Owen Harrison, in Desmonds court, rum
ming from G. street between I'd and Sd
streets southwest. The participants were
two colored men, named George Burnett
and Frank Burgess. who arrived in this
city yesterday morning from Norfolk.
They were peddlers Of soap. and spent the
day selling their wares among the colorei
people in South Washington. Burgess
drank a good deal, and when the men met
in Harrison's shop to settle up on the
days business Burnett accused Burgess Of
spending too much money. This brought
hot war of words, which eliminated
in Burgess drawing a pocket knife and
stabbing Burnett just below the breast.
The wounded man ran crying into the
court. when he fell. and in the excitement
that foil Owed his assaflant disappeared.
Burnett was taken to Emergency Hospital.
where 1t was reported this afternoon that
he was doing fairly well. Burgess is being
looked for by the police. but is believed
to have left the city.
