Excludes American Fresh Fruits from Her
Markets-Retaliation Charged.
A Berlin despatch of Feb. ? says: The
Prussian minister of finance, DR.. MIGUEL,
issued a decree yesterday which goes
into effect Immediately, prohibiting the
importion of every kind of American
fresh fruit. The decree has been sent to
all the German ports and frontier
stations, except Bavaria, SaXony and
Wurtemburg. The United States am
barsador was not previously warned and
United States Ambassador White sent a
formal letter to the foreign office to-day
inquring upon what authority this mimi
cal step was taken. The United States
consul at Hamburg, DR.. Hugh Pitcairn,
telegraphed here to-day that 10000
barrels of American apples had been
forbidden to be unloaded and that two
trains full of American fruit had been
forbidden to cross the frontier at En-
merich, which, aside from Hamburg,
is the principal place of entry for Ameri-
can fruit. On receipt of this news
Ambassador White sent a second and
stronger remOnstrance to the foreign
office, calling attention to the evident
violation of the treaty. At the foreign
office it was learned that the Prussian
government prohibits the entry of
American fruit on sanitary pretexts,
claiming that California, and other
yermin threaten to infect German trees
and fruits.
