Berlin, Sept. 1S-The first batch OF
replies to a circular of inquiry as to
the effects of the new United States
tariff law circulated by the Frank
furter /eitung has been printed. The
general tenor OF the answers shows
that the manufacturers generally eX-
pect to be able to stand the new tariff
without such alleged and as the agra
rians propose, in the shape OF a tariff
war with the United States and high
er prices for cereals. The replies,
however, show that some branches of
German industry have been hit more
or less hard. For instance. the iron
and steel industry of Solingen and
Remscheid, with the sole exception OF
SCISSORS, have been seriously injured
and the same is true in the case of
yarns and the cheaper silk stutls of
Crefeld the cloth factories OF Lcnnep
and Hucckcnwagen, the prints ofGlad-
bach and the leather and glove and
cheaper linen industries of Selesia.
On the other hand, the Chemnitz knit
goods and hosiery, the Saxon cotton
industry, the Gera woolens, the Ber-
lin and Barmen trimmings, the Gre
field necktieS and the NOigtland laces.
curtains and knitting machines are
barely touched. Besides a number of
manufacturers, notably the ChemnitZ
hOsicrs, are contemplating starting
factories in the United States, in the
convection that the new tariff will last
for "A number of wears.
In official circles it is not concealed
that the aim is to frame laws to abso.
lutelv exclude IN future all American
meats and preserves on the plea that
the sanitary inspection in America is
not reliable and not stringent enough.
Even this, however, falls TO satisfy
the a9rarians, who have renewed their
demand ma American cereals be eX-
cludcd from Germany.
As a striking commentary upon the
plans to exclude American meat the
fact may be- noted that pork in Ger

reached a price %unequalcd in many

CHINESE PREVENTIVE OF RABIES
Eating the Liver of the Dog Recom-
mendcd as a Cure for the BIte.

A French missionary in China wit
messed recently how two of his carriers
were bitten by a rabid dog and was very
much worried about it, says Modern
Medicine. Several Chinese who hap
pened TO be there told him that his
worry was absolutely uncalled for, since
they had an undoubtedly safe proven
tive against the poison of a rabid dog
taking effect, and TO prove the assertion
five Cinnamon who had been bitten in
March of last year by a mad dog were
presented to the missionary. He found
that Cinnamon eat of the raw liver Of
q mad dog after being bitten, and IL
they partake Of this within a given time
after the accident, il is said they will not
be subject TO hydrophobia. 1t is curious
that Plinius in his natural history rec
ommends eating the liver of a mad dog,
II bitten, as raw as possible, and they
who could not swallow the liver raw
should have it cooked and drink the
broth therefrom. 1t is not positively
known whether this remedy is efiica-
cious, but IL appears to be worthy OF
investigation, particularly since this
seems TO be the actual beginning Of the
isopathic treatment since perfected by
Pasteur and Koch.

Gazette this afternoon comments In its
financial article on the fall of three
quarters in Spanish tours, on heavy
sales for continental accounts, saying:
THE bonds are absurdly high, owing
to the support of Paris, which was
loaded up; but probably the conditions
will be changed by the action of the
United States in regard to Cuba. Spain
evidently cannot wage war with Ameri-
ca, but the concession of independence
to Cuba may lead to disasters at Mad
rid, and if Spain defaults the French
financiers will be hit very badly"
The Standard publishes this morning
a financial telegram received in the
city from Bombay, which says that the
silver market there is very much ex-
cited and silver is in strong demand,
consequent upon the up-country bazars
anticipating that the Bank of England
will be a probable buyer at an early
date The telegram further says that
the price has risen in Bombay IL
rupees per 100 tolas since last Thurs
day. Commenting upon this intelli-
gence the Standard says: 'All this
serves to indicate the incalculable mis-
chief that clumsy exhibitors of humor
in business affairs may do. We wish
the directors Of the clearing banks
could be relied upon to draw up a
strong and emphatic protest to the gov
eminent, asking that steps be taken to
end these amateur efforts to destroy
confidence Unhappily London bank
boards have no strong leader at pres
ent, and the fear is not seldom express

Gag Law Does Not
Go il Wisconsin.

MADISON, Wis, Sept. 21.-Justice J.
B. Winslow, of the Wisconsin supreme
court, handed down an important de-
cision today. The opinion is in the
case of the proceedings for contempt
of court by Judge W. F. Bailey, of
Eau Claire, against H. G. Ashbaugh
and L. A. Doolittle. The court says:
1--WE are well persuaded that news
paper comments on cases finally de-
cided, prior to the publication, can
not be considered criminal contempt"
After reviewing the rights of courts
and emphasizing the Importance that
they should perform their grave pub
lie duties unimpeded and unprejudiced
by illegitimate influences, Judge Win
slow calls attention to the fact that
there are other rights guaranteed to
all citizens which are fully as import
ant and which must be guarded with
equally Jealous care. Continuing, he
says:
Truly, it must be a grievous and
weighty necessity which will justify SO
arbitrary a proceeding whereby a can
didate for Office becomes the accuser,
judge and jury, and may within a few
hours summarily punish his critic by
imprisonment. The result of such a
doctrine is that all unfavorable criti-
cism of a sitting judges past official
action can be at once stopped by the
judge himself, or, if not stopped, con
be punished by immediate imprison-
ment. If there can be any more eff
fectual way to gag the press and sub
vert freedom of speech, we do net
know where to find it. Under such

rule the merits of a sitting judge may
be rehearsed, but, as to his dement's,
there must be profound silence. In our
opinion no such divinity doth hedge
about judge, certainly not when he
is a candidate for public office"
Judge Bailey presided in the circuit
court of Eau Claire county and was a
candidate for reelection. During the
heat Of the campaign, a lawyer, DR..
Doolittle, published in Ashbaughton' S
newspaper an article several columns
in length, charging the judge with be-
ing eXtravagant in the management Of
the court and with being partial and
unfair in respect to his official con-
duct in the trial of causes and with be-
ing influenced by corrupt motives.
These charges all referred to proceed
ingS and cases already heard and de-
cided and not in matters then pending
or on trial. March 81, an editorial ar
ticle appeared in the newspaper strong
ly opposing Judge Bailey's candidacy
and summarizing the charges against
him which had been made at length in
the Doolittle article. April 1 Judge
Bailey made an order on his own mo-
ton requiring H. H. Hayden and T. F.
Frawley to institute contempt pro-
ceedings against Ashbaugh and Doc
little on account Of the publications.
Upon the assembling of the court at
that time the alternative writ of pro-
hibition from the supreme court was
produced and served upon Judge Bal
ley. Thereupon Judge Bailey an
nounced that he would not proceed
further with the pending proceedings,
but at once made an order adjudging
Ashbaugh and Doolittle guilty of
new contempt in the immediate pres
ence Of the court.

SHEPERD, Mich, Sept. 21.-Scms
startling disclosures were brought out
in the evidence today at the Struble
inquest. 1t was shown from the bank
records that the dead cashier had at
different times made sham entries Of
deposits in his hooks amounting TO
nearly $4,000, and that, but for these
fictitious deposits the books would have
shown deficit in the bank During
most of the time when these figures
'were.on the books, Srtuble's funds at
the Bank Were very low, seldom over
$50 and sometimes nothing. Prescott
ing Attorney Mcnamara testified that
all. Of Struble's private papers were
missing. The preponderance of evil
dence today decidedly favored the sui
eise, theory, although the attorneys for
the.dead mans relatives still promise
some conclusive evidence in support OF
murder The general opinion now
seems to be that the jury will disagree.
