BERLIN, Oct. 22.-Au American dip
lcmat who is in a position to know
the inside facts in the cases, discussing
the German proposition to practically
exclude American meat products from
Germany, said:
1T is understood that there is danger
Of a meat inspection bill to exclude
American meat imports under sanitary
preteXts. The agricultural department
Will undoubtedly present bill to con-
greSS, If American products are at
tackled, providing for similarly inSpec-
ton Of authorizations of German wines
and the dangerous coloring used in toys
ana Woolens, ETC., and of the adultera-
lions in dyes, chemicals and other prod
ucts. Many Americans hold that Ger
man imports require careful sanitary
inspection in both countries. Their
representatives at Berlin and Washing
ton are anxious to do everything to
avert retaliatory measures, but there is
no good reason to suppose that they
will be entirely successful. if the reich
stag passes a law of inspection, which
is a virtual prohibition, or if the present
system is continued
Moderate men on both sides strong
ly desire bill providing for thorough
inspection, thus avoiding repeated, I'M
necessary and VeXatious local inspec-
tiC,ns Of the same meat. If the United
States first inspected German imports
| and the different state governments Of
America then reinSpected them and
they were afterwards inspected by the
different American municipal authori-
ties, for the third time, that would be
precisely the condition of affairs Amer
lean meat now has to face in Ger
many"
The United States ambassador, An
drew d. White, referring to the same
matter said: IF a fair law were pre-
pared, abolishing the reinspection Of
meat in more than one place, the Unit
ed States would heartily approve Of it."
Mr.. White gave his first diplomatic
dinner of the season on Tuesday in
honor Of DR.. Van Holeben, the German
ambassador at Washington, who is now
on a visit to Germany.
The function was a great diplomatic
success. Among those present were
Baron Won Richten, the acting foreign
secretary, and most Of the members
Of the diplomatic corps. After the
dinner, DR.. Won HOleben said he like
Mr.. White, was in favor Of removing
the minor matters which have latter}y
disturbed the pleasant relations be-
tween the two countries, such as ton
mage and insurance questions by set
! ting them amicably. The German
ambassador also expressed the hope
that the cattle inspection bill would
be SO drawn as to be acceptable to
the United States.
DR.. Won Holeben, referring to the
tariff negotiations, described them as
being in the iniatory stage.
The German ambassador goes to
Stuttgart next week for the purpose
Of attending the wedding of Princess
! Pauline and the Prince Weld. He will
| then return to Berlin, where before
returning to the United States, he will
confer with the imperial chancellor,
Prince HOhenlOhe, and various min
listers concerning projected exchange
and other matters touching upon Ger
| man-American relations.
EMPEROR'S TOUR.
Emperor Williams tour Of the East
| is followed here with the keenest in
terest. One Of the most significant
political features Of his majesty's stay
at Constantinpple was the hosting of
! the German naval ensign with the
cross, besides the Turkish crescent.
Since the conquest Of Constantinople
flags having q cross upon them have
never been hoisted there The sultan
the colors.
A striking deviation from Moham-
| medan customs was also noticed in the
| sultan kissing the hand Of the empress
of Germany. In spite Of semi-offfcial
denial that the emperor is asking any
| thing from the sultan, adVices received
| here from Constantinople report that
the Mussulmans are convinced the sui
! tan will make Emperor William some
| great gift, the island of Rhodes or the
port Of Haifa, on the bay of Acre at
! the foot Of Mount Carmel. This would
| seem an appropriate gift, for one mile
west Of Haifa, at the immediate foot
| Of the mount is a Standardization
mission colony, having a good school,
! sixty stone dwellings and manufac-
| tories Of soap and olive wood wares
| The colony has a population Of over
300 souls, while Haifa itself has a pop
ulation Of over 1000. The Turks seem
to nave displayed genuine enthusiasm
over the visit Of the German emperor
and empress to Constantinople
The mallahs of the mosques at SIAM
| boul assembled on the eve Of their
majesties' departure to express in pub
| lie their sympathy for the emperor Of
! Germany.
Dispatches received here from ST.
Petersburg show that the. emperor's
| Journey to the East is viewed there
with the greatest suspicion, and 1t is
| fully believed that Emperor William
| Is DESTROYS Of acquiring a portion Of
! Ottoman territory.
The Novoe Vreyma, writing in this
sense, warns Turkey that even a slight
| cession of Turkish territory will be the
| beginning Of the partition Of the Turk
ish empire, if not Of it's ruin.
| The German newspapers at first re-
ceived the English news of the anar-
chist plot at Alexandria against the life
| of Emperor William with skepticism.
| and a, section Of the German press, in
| GLIDING the Vossiche Zeitung and the
Socialist organs even now from nartv
| reasons affect to believe that the plot
only existed in the Imagination Of the
| police. This skepticism, however, Is
| only affected from fear Of special leg
| islation in Germany against their party
and cause.
A special point in this connection was
made by the Cologne Gazette, which
| said: I'VE Germans have been unable
to agree with the views of the kaiser
| regarding anarchists because we felt
| that he has sometimes incorrectly dag
| nOsed the movement and has therefore
| not always made a lucky choice of
means to fight the foe, for we know
| there are currents in the movement
which cannot be overcome by shooting
| our fathers or brothers, but rather the
| best means is to prevent new COM
| bUstibles from being added to the
| flames"
The Berlin anarchists have called q
meeting for next Friday to protest
| against international anarchist bait ne
and conspiracy against freedom" The
