NO AMERICAN BEEF TAINTED.
Professor Mendell Says That There Have
Been Several Cases of Poi oning.

Professor Mendell Says That There Have
Reen Several Cases of Poi coming.
Berlin, March 22.-An interesting de-
bate arose in the unterhaus on We'd
nesday during the discussion of an in
terpellation asking the intentions of the
government in regard to the dealing
of the question of American meats.
Prof. Mendell launched prolonged til
rade os invectives against American
|corned beef and all canned meats, and IN
the course of his remarks he gave an
instance of a wife Of a Berlin journalist
having been poisoned by the use of such
goods. Other similar cases, he said,
were not uncommon, and amid the
cheers of the agrarian members of the
chamber he urged that it was not suffi-
cient that American meats should be
certified as healthy by American in
spectors, but that the whole carcass
must be inspected by German inspectors
before it could be admitted into the
country.
In regard to American oleomargarine
he declared that control of the inspec-
ton of that product by Americans was
inadequate, Americans not having exer-
cised proper sanitary precautions and
their interest being solely commercial.
Freiherr Won Loxten,
minister Of agriculture, replied that it
was impossible to enclose prussia with
in a Chinese wall. He held that the
existing precautions were sufficient and
thought that the agrarians could make
capital enough out of the alleged cases
of Texas fever in German cattle, said
to be traceable to the importation of
American cattle.
The Freisinnige Zeitung says that the
intention OF the member whose inter
pellation precipitated the debat was
merely to ask the minister of agricul-
ture for an official report upon Ameri-
can meats. The debate closed before
the time became opportune and the
matter will be brought up again.

REYoLUTIoN IN N1CARAGUA.
It is Now Assuming a More Serious
ASPECT.

1t Is Now Assuming More Serious
Aspect.
New York, March 22-The revolution
in Nicaragua, according to intelligence
received through private channels to-
day, is more serious than the dispatch
es from that country would indicate.
The strict press censorship established
by President Zelaya renders it impos-
sible to make public any news, except
what is favorable to the government.
Two facts, however, in the opinion of
those familiar with existing conditions,
seem we'll established: First, that Ze-
laya is not suppressing the rebellion,
and that the Hondurah troops, the sup
posed allies of Zelaya, are quite as like
1y to aid the rebels as to act in concert
with the government troops.
The first of these facts is based upon
the almost certain knowledge that the
revolutionists have not lost ground.
that they are confident of success since
in every engagement they have been
the aggressors; that they have the
moral and material support Of the great
majority of the liberal party, which
placed Zelaya in power, and that the
government forces have maintained
from the beginning a purely defensive
attitude. The Honduran troops now in
Nicaragua are at point midway be-
tween Leon and Corinto, in the terri
tory occupied by the rebels. Their pres
ent attitude is one of strict neutrality,
but it is regarded as not improbable
that their aid may in the end be given
to Baca, the provisional president of
the insurgent government. Color is
given this belief by the intimate rela-
tions that have long existed between
General Orteze, the commander of the
insurgents, and President Bonilla of
Honduras, who owes his present eleva
tion to the services rendered in his be-
half several years ago by Orteze.
If Honduras espouses Bacas cause
the latter will, it is believed, become
victorious, since his troops are armed
with modern guns and animated by
sentiments of the loftiest patriotism, as
they are fighting for constitutional lib
erty to prevent the alleged dictatorship
of Zelaya Without Honduras aid the
result is likely to be in doubt for sex
eral months at least.
Another element of uncertainty is the
influence which the Salvadorian peace
commission may exert upon the fac
tions. That their efforts will result in
failure is believed to be probable. Baca
and those associated with him are de-
ter1nined upon the overthrow of Zelaya,
while Zelaya is equally determined up
on the suppression of the rebellion
Shrewd observers in Central America be-
lieye that before the present troubles
end all five of the republics may become
embroiled, unless a peaceable solution
is reached within few weeks.

THE WEEK IN CONGRESS.
Joint Resolution on Cuban Affairs In the
Senate,

Washington, March 22.-The failure Of
the senate thus far to act upon the
questions involved in the Dupont case
and on the conference report on the
Cuban resolutions, retains them in line
as unfinished business for the coming
week. The senate's attitude towards
the Cuban resolutions has been mate
rally affected by the joint resolution
offered at the close of Friday nights
session by Mr.. Morgan. 1t is under
stood he will press his resolution to
vote of for no other purpose than to
put the senate on record. The legisla-
tive and judicial appropriation bill
which is in charge of Mr.. Cullom will
be called up. The provision changing
the compensation of United States
marshals and district attorneys nom
fees to salaries will, doubtless, cause
debate but otherwise there is little in
the bill that should precipitate discus
sion
The bill to approve the compromise
made between the United States and
the state Of Arkansas holds its place as
unfinished business, but Mr. Berry has
not pressed it. Beyond tomorrow
which under the rules is to be devoted
TO the consideration of business re-
ported by the committee on affairs
of the District of Columbia there is no
program of business arranged for the
house of representatives this week.
Chairman Babcock says he will not
have enough business to engage the at
tention of the house for an entire ses-
sion unless some wholly unexpected
opposition to some one of the measures
on the calendar from his committee
should develop.
The naval bill, owing to difficulties
in the committee having it in charge
mainly over the appropriations for bat
tleships and for drydocks has not been
fully completed and it is not expected
to be reported before the latter end
of the week. That had been depended
on by the managers to occupy most
of the time beginning Tuesday and
they have nothing of large Importance
to take it's place.
Two minor pension bills of a gen.
eral nature are on the calendar and an
opportunity will doubtless be afforded
to press them to passage.
The committee on ways and means
has before it for discussion and action
at it's meeting Tuesday the filled cheese
bill reported from the committee
last week Those particularly interest
ed in its progress believe that the full
committee can agree upon report
that day. Should that be done the bill
doubtless be taken up day or two
later. 1T will be vigorously fought in
the house and long debate is certain
to ensue whenever it does come up.

Might Mean a New Man,

New Orleans, La, March 22.-The
state democratic executive committee
has advised Governor Foster that it is
inexpedient to hold an election for a
congressman in the fifth Louisiana
district at the same time as the state
election. The governor will, therefore,
not issue proclamation for the cleo
tion of a congressman in that district
until after the general election. This
means that successor to Colonel Boat
ner, whose seat has been declared va
cant, will not be elected until Novem-
Der next.

They Were Led Astray.

st. Louis, Mo-, March 22.--All the
newspapers and the public interested
in the matter were led astray yester-
day by the assertion that the independ-
ena concerns had come to terms with
the American Tobacco company. Col
onel Wetmore, manager of the Leggett
& Meyers company, last night declared
that the statement was false. He as
serted that his company had enlisted
for the war and that any talk of COM
promise was absurd. H. I. Drummond,
vice president of the Drummond To-
bacco company, says there is no truth
in the statement of a compromise.

Icehouse and Barn Burned-Buildings In

East Hartford, March pa barn
and ice house belonging to Joseph
Boardman was burned to the ground
tonight. Seventeen horses, cow and
several pigs perished in the flames.
Aside from these 1000 tons of ice and
large number of single and double
harnesses were destroyed. The horses
were not all owned by Mr.. Boardman.
The building was of wood and was
surrounded by a row of wooden build
ings. The flames were prevented from
spreading to any of these. The fire
started about II o'clock and is supposed
to be due to the carelessness of some
one of the ice house employees who drop
ped match or a spark from his pipe
into the straw. The total loss is esti-
mated at $4,000. The building was in
sured for $500. The store of ice and
stock was not insured.

SUPERIOR TO RUSSIAN SHIPS.
Admiral Makaraff Gives His Views on til,
Massachusetts.

Massachusetts.
Philadelphia, March 22.-Rear Ad-
n1iral Makaroff Of the Russian navy,
who was aboard the battleship Massa-
chusetts during her builders trial trip,
in speaking of the vessels performance,
said:
II was greatly impressed by the care
shown by the Cramps in studying the
workings of the machinery with a view
to improvements, if any might be made.
was also greatly pleased with the
ship.
Ten years ago we were accustomed
to see very old fashioned ships in your
navy and we are now glad to see that
our friends have such fine ships every
where"
Admiral Makaroff thought the new
American ships as good as any seen
anywhere else and in some respects
better than ships Of other nations. AS
a battleship, he said, he considered the
Massachusetts superior to many others,
especially in her range of fire and he
thought she had an astonishingly good
fore and aft fire. To get this, however,
he thought she had sacrificed slightly
her freeboard, but as she was for coast
defence he thought this defect was
perhaps not important.
AS compared with the great Russian
battleships in the Black Sea, which
he considered the best for concentra-
ton of fire in Europe. Admiral Maka-
rolf admitted that he considered the
Massachusetts superior in concentra-
ton of firing.
