In view of the holidays, number of

places have left Hamburg, and 1t Is
now said that they will not return.
Some Of the employers are trying to
come to terms with their own men.
Considerable irritation continues
everywhere at the utterances attributed
to the emperor In regard to the strike.
His majesty is credited with having
expressed, at Prince Hohenlohe's ban-
quet, his pleasure at the attitude of
the Hamburg employers in 'sgtaunchly
resisting the unjust demands' of the
dock laborers, and to have dwelt at
length upon the idea Of founding
coalition of employers, adding that
such step upon the part of the en-
ployers, would be blessing for the
seduced workmen and enable them to
resist the incitenent of hatred within
the world of labor" It Is probable,
however, that some agreement between
the employers and the strikers will be
reached within the next few days.

HOLIDAY TRAFFIC LIGHT.
Roads Disappointed in the Amount
of Business Done.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-TYhe roads run
ming out of Chicago were much disap-
pointed this year over the amount of
the holiday traffic. 1t was smaller
than for several years past and the
general opinion had been that it would
be heavier than ever before. The
Canadian excursion business, over
which there has been sucE a row. and
which usually reaches its cSSnax at
Christmas time, has panned out not
over fifty per cent of the usual amount
and proves not to have been worth
all the fighting and squabbhng that
the Western roads have been doing
with the 500, the Canadian Pacific and
the Joint Traffic lines In order to Sc
cure what they considered their por-
tion of the business.
Railroad officials are much worked
up over the effort that will apparently
be made at the next meeting of the
Illinois legislature to get the roads
down to a maximum rate of two cents
per mile in this state. They have been
making efforts to find who Is behind
the idea but have not been able to
secure the information they desire
Some Of the roads declare that the
two cent idea comes from the state
board of warehouse commissioners, but
Of this they have no direct or tangible
proof. They admit that they have no
proof but say that they think that the
agitation comes from that body.

Caustic Letter to the Red Cross
President.


President.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Dec PA
few days ago Joaquin Forum, a WELL
known leader in Jacksonville, wrote
to Miss Barton president Of the Ameri.
can Red Cross society, asking for as
sistance for the insurgent wounded in
the island. A reply has been received
from Miss Barton. 1t Is dated at Wash.
ington, Dec. 20, and says in part:
1t Is not possible that you will attribute
any inactfon on my part to want of sympathy
with respect to the all-engrossing subject
which you bring before me- but you will uns
derstand that, holding the position that / do,

could act independently in a cause at once
so delicate and so natural. The proper and
necessary conditions given, l trWk that
there will be no lack Of sympathy found
in the American Red Cross. Hoping for bet

Mr. Fortun wrote a. rather caustio
letter in reply saying in part: y
am in receipt OF your favor in answer ITO
my appeal to the American National Red
Cross in favor of my suffering countrymen
in Cuba 1t is a conclusion so extraordinary
that I am fully warranted in bringing II to
the knowledge OF the American people that
they may know that existing circumstances
OF the nature that you do not disclose, make
it impossible for the highest institution OF
charity in this country to offer aid to an
American neighbor and friend. 1t Is my
duty as Cuban to bring this fact before the
American people th1& they decide conscien-
tiously if such circumstances subsist
consistently with American charity and Amer
Jean ideas Of religion, and I therefore joyfully
publish your letter and my answer giving
both to the public press that this great peo-
pie and their congressional representatives
during their holidays may reflect on what
these existing circumstances mean, feeling as

az E8C1MG. :
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 26.1The
final decree of foreclosure and sale Of
the Atlantic & Pacific railway was fled
in the United States circuit court to-
day. This is the last OF series Of
similar DEGREES which have been made
III suits by the same parties and for
the same action In every district in
which the insolvent Atlantic and Pa
clf1c has property. 1t Is ordered that
unless the sum of 81, ,582, ,843 is paid by
the railroad to It's debtors within thirty
days, the entire property shall be sold
at auction at Gallup, Bernaililo county,
New Mexico.
The foreclosure proceedings were in
stituted by the United States Trust
company Of New York, to recover the
interest on an issue of bonds. The
bonds were in two sets aggregating
the sum Of SIG 6,O0O.000 with interest at
6 per cent payable annually. The issue
was held in trust by the Mercantile
Trust company and was known as
the mortgage on the Western division
of the railroad. A second issue with
terms similar was taken by the Bos-
ton Safe Deposit and Trust company
The suit came up in the United States
district court in this city on Oct g.
1896, before Judge Ross. who appoint
ed Owen N. Marion to take testimony
III the case at Los Angeles. Marion has
filed his report and consequent there
upon Judge Ross has filed the decree
just mentioned. The bonds, aggregat-
ing 10000 delivered to the Boston
Safe Deposit &, Trust company have
been decided to be subordinate to the
first issue.

been received that the complainants

WAR ON MEAT.

With New Vigor

Germany Preparing to Wage 1t
With New Vigor.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-There is
general indications that the war on
American meat products in Germany
is to be prosecuted with fresh vigor.
United States Consul Wamer, at Co
lCgne, has this to say on the subject
in a report to the department of state:
Notwithstanding the assurances OF
the United States government that all
meat products for export are subjected
to strict examination, the intermina-
BILE agitation in Germany against the
wholesomeness of these products still
goes on. At g. recent meeting of the
Agricultural association of the district
Of Cologne the subject of adulterating
. German sausage with American dis
eased beef was discussed The speaker
drew special attention to the fact that
the beef was examined for maggOtS in
Germany, but not so in America. Since
in the former country SausageS were
more adulterated with American beef
that was infested with maggots than
with potato meat, the law in force in
Germany against dishonest competi-
ton, it was said, should be applied
in the case Of sausages, which would
require the marking of the goods as TO
whether they were of German or for
eign origin and had been officially eX-
amined or not. A chemist present said
that the American beef was not so
rrofusely infested with maggots, but
that 1t came to Germany. prepare with
borax in an astonishi manner On
the exterior Of the meat, there was, he
asserted, a Complete crust of borax and
the meat was actually picked with it.
If sausages contained meat prepared
in this way and We're offered for sale, it
was clearly fraud in the sale of food

ceiyers of the Baltimore & Ohio taking
judgments aggregating $50, ,405 against
the company for freight charges. The
receiver will continue the business Of
the company. 1t is understood the re-
