modest and do not exceed anything the

The Agrarian papers insist that the
tariff between Germany and the United
States ought TO be framed to wholly ex-
clude American meat products from Ger

imports of American horses. which were
valued at 4.1i3O00 marks In 1897, ana
which have almost doubled this year.
These papers also maintain that much
horse flesh comes in the shape Of sau-

merce appointed to investigate the floods

tion OF April 2e. 1897 and TO make recon-
mendations for their prevention in the

port TO be made TO the full committee.
The Subcommittee presented the results
of its labors in a printed volume OF over
five hundred pages, giving the testimony
taken together with several maps and
illustrations pertinent TO the work in
hand.
The committee furnishes much practi-
cal information and gives some Interests
ing conclusions but makes comparative
ly few recommendations. They discuss
the reservoir and outlet systems, bur
conclude that both are impracticable for
the prevention OF Overfiows on a big
scale. The conclusion is reached that
the Improvement Of South Pass TO the
extent necessary TO render II deep enough

and the opinion IS indicated that South
