GERMANY NEEDS A LESSON.
Discrimination Against American Products
May be Met by Retaliation Against
German Goods.

Chicago, Oct. 2s.-A special to the
Tribune from Washington says: Dur
ing the winter the administration pur-
poses to take steps retaliating against
Germany for discrimination against
American pork. Prof. Wiley, of the
agricultural department, is now con-
Quoting an investigation for the infor-
nation of the president, and has gone
to New York for the purpose of secur-
ing samples of German wines and 9th
er products, which will undergo {:
close scrutiny to find ground for eX-
Guiding them from this country.
American meat products have been
Earrassed in so many ways that it has
become Improbable to export them to
Germany. 1t has been charged that
THESE products are infected with
trichinae, and everything imaginable
has been done to harrass trade and
drive it from that market.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
Sudden Recall of Colonies Hecker and
Lee of the United States Special
Transportation system.

Havana, Oct. 31.-Col. Hecker and
Col. Lee, of the United States special
transportation commission, received
cablegrams from Washington last
night directing their return to Wash
ington by the first steamer available.
The messages which were from Sec
rotary Alger were very brief, simply
directing the recipients to report TIC
the war department.
Replies were Immediately cabled to
Washington, but up to the hour of fl
ing this dispatch no rejoinder had beer
received, thus leaving the matter OF
Col. Hecker's departure doubtful,
though Col. Lee will leave tomorrow
by the Ward liner Seneca.
The superstition is that the death OF
Col. George E. Warning, -Jr., in New
York city, has necessitated some
change in the plans of the war depart

THE CASE OF CAPT. DkByFUs.
The Court OF Cessation Obtains the Nagt
Absolute Control Over the Cele-
hrated Case.

Paris, Oct. 31.-By Saturdays deci-
sion the court of cessation obtains
the most absolute control over the
Dreyfus case. 1t can demand and ex-
anime any documents whatever, in
Guiding the dossier, of any case bear
ing upon the Dreyfus matter, and can
examine under oath any witness, how
ever high his position.
In short, if the court makes sin
cere use of its powers, the truth will
have a much better chance of being
discovered than would have been the
case had it merely ordered revision be-
fore another court-martial, whose
members might have been actuated by
a desire to shield the general staff.
Having concluded It's inquiry, it can
present new dossier to either civil
or a military court for the final deci-
sion. Its proceedings will not be pub
lie. and there can, therefore, be no OBJ
lection to d communication to it of
the alleged secret dossier, if this is
still in existence, while the numerous
generals who have expressed their be-
lief in the guilt of Dreyfus will now
be called upon to explain the grounds
of their convictions.
Although the liberation CT Dreyfus
has not been ordered the court can or
der Kim brought back to France at
any moment, and will probably do so
at an early stage of the inquiry. The
court refrained from ordering his re-
lease on Saturday because it would
have been a presumption of his innO-
cence.
Paul Deroulede, of the Patriotic
league, turned the patriotic manifes-
tation at Labourget yesterday in mem
DRY of the soldiers who fell there in
the Franco-Prussian war of 1870 into
a revolutionary demonstration against
the decision of the court of cessation.
He delivered violent anti-Dreyfus
speech.
MARCEL Habert, member of the
chamber of deputies, followed with
still more infammatory harangue.
There were, however, no disorders.
Count Esterhazy, 1t is reported, has
written TO several generals demanding

COMMISSIONER H. CLAY EVANS.
the war with Spain was 1906. OF this
number 107 were officers. At Santa
go the loss of life was % officers and
222 men. This is an average of one
officer for every ten men. At Car

the battles on Cuban soil 81 men have
died of wounds received in service.
Disease More Deadly Than Bullets.
The total number of American sol

fies the soldiers adage that disease
kills more men than bullets. There
have been 600 claims for pensions filed
to date as a result of the war.
I'm the Cuban campaign the loss of
so many officers is accounted for by

the Treatment.
the Treatment,

Washington, Oct. 2s.-During the
past two years the department of az
riculture has conducted a series of eS-
Pcriments in the use of serum as a
remedy for hogs affected by cholera Or
swine plague. The experiments were
conducted by DIR. ID. Z. Salmon, chief
| of the bureau of animal industry, and
the results were infinitely satisfactory,
proving that the dreaded disease can
be successfully treated easily and in
extensively.
The Farmers Enormous Losses.
The losses suffered by the farmers
or the United States annually from hog
cholera aggregate an enormous sum.
In Iowa alone, during 1896, it is esti-
mated that the hog raisers lost,
through the ravages of the disease, S15,-
OO0, 900. Scores of remedies have been
tried, but nothing even approxiEaating
specific for the disease has ever been
discovered until the department of ag-
riculture began it's experiments.
The Experiments in Iowa.
Last year the experiments were con-
Quoted in Page county, Ia, the results
showing loss of only 90 per cent. of
the affected droves. This year the eX
perinents have been extensive and far
reaching. The bureau treated 922 hogs.
OF these, ITO died, the number saved
being 81 out of every hundred. The
loss was only 10 per cent. The ami
mails comprised II droves, and of these
six droves lost only one hog each. On

died, showing a loss of 7e.s hogs out
o. every hundred.
DIR. Salmon on the Treatment.
Speaking of the treatment, DIR. Sal
mon said: There is no question of the
effectiveness of the serum treatment.
Our operations have been viewed with
skepticism, but the serum treatment
for hog cholera is no longer an eX-
pertinent. 1t is a proved success, and
undoubtedly will save to the farmers
of the United States millions of dol
lars every year"
Method of Securing Serum.
The cholera serum is procured by
keeping apart for treatment an ami
mal-a horse or a cow-and injecting
into it's blood small amount of the
blood of a cholera-diseased hog. This
will sicken the subject, but he will re-
cover, when another dose will be adj
ministered, and so on until finally his
blood becomes so impregnated as to
render him practically cholera proof.
Then his blood is let and the cIot
drawn off, leaving the thin yellowish
portion, which is the serum. This is
used to inject into the diseased hogs,
and operates to render them likewise
cholera proof. or even cures them of
the disease after it has developed.
