Recent discussions In the Prusslan
Diet on the subject OF excluding
American meats from Germany seem
TO indicate thatsucll a policy will be
permanently adopted ia the inear fu-
ture, II indeed it has not already been
virtually determined upon. The rep
resentatives OF the agrarlans IN Ger
many demand the total exclusion Of
American meats. They characterize
our Inspection as sham. and charge
that our pork Is infected with trlch-
in0sIs and our meats, they say, are
10 preserved.acids that are injurious to
the health. Although these charges
have been repeatedly proven false, and
though IL ha been shown that 10
every instance where trIchinosis has
been found In Germany 1t was tracea-
BILE directly TO German pork and Ger
man inspection,y yet the clamor for the
exclusion OF American competition Iin
meat supply is so great that the min
lister OF agriculture is said to have an
nounced royal decree for the total
exclusion of American meats, which is
to be presented TO the Reichstag and
pissed before adjournment.
Absurd as such action may seem, 1t
is only part Of the prevailing inter
national policy Of trade retaliation
which has been fostered on both con-
tinents during recent years, and |
which, so far from dong any nation
any good, is simply productive Of the
worst possible Industrial and CONNER
cial results for all concerned, IfGer-
many imaglnes that she will be bene-
lifted by the exclusion of American
meats, she is sadly mistaken. Our
tariff thinkers will at once retalIate In
a manner that Will make her squlrm.
But mean while, though we may be
able TO cripple the German sugar In
dustry In this way, yet our meat pro-
ducers will be suffering constantly and
intellectually and the mutual results OF
this senseless and aimlesswar of dis
will be most disastrous.

under the bow with dabolical intent.
To be sure an accident may occur on
shipboard a magazine or battery may
explode. But consider all the circum-
stances and you will not entertain the
theory of an accident. In the history
OF our navy there never has been such
an accident. why should the first one
occur In so perfectly equipped n vessel
as the Maine, and under so capable
commanding officer as Sigsbee?
why should 1t occur in Havana
harbor. where the vessel was at the
mercy of an enemy capable of treach-
cry. as We know the Spaniard is and
has been as long MS he has figured in
history? Why should 1t follow so
closely the recent exposure of the
Spanish minister to the United States

an affable demeanor in Washington
while giving vent to his hatred of our
chief executive and our people in pri-
vate letters to compatriots? The
combination of facts is too strong to

TOLD ABOUT ALLlGATORS.
Are Considered the Greatest Of All The Hiber-
majors.

Speaking of alternating animals. an
old hunter, and consequently close
student OF natural history, remarked
that of all the hibernators the great
est Is the alligator.
THE alligator" he said. "is certainly
one Of the most remarkable OF all hiber-
majors; in fact, perhaps the most re-
markable. II Is the only amphibious
animal | recall belonging to that class.
With the first black frost thousands of
these hideous creatures, from the L.
inch yellow and black earrings of the
previous springs Matching TO the 10
foot monsters that can pull down n
horse, retire for the winter. Alligators
abound in salt and fresh water rivers
as far up as tide water extends and in
the adjacent inland swamps from
North Carolina to the Cuff. While they
summer from the spot of high land
where In the spring the huge nest of
tn female was made and the bushel Of
eggs laid for the sun to hatch. in the
fall the alligators return thither. Near
their nests is their hole.
"These holes are sometimes, If the
saurain is an inhabitant of an inland
swamp, dug like a well in some wood,
but more often the mouth Of the hole
is beneath the surface of the water the
excavation extendir" under the bank.
With his powerful feet and claws the
alligator digs almost straight down Tor
from eight to twelve feet: he then
makes a horizontal passage for some
distance, and finally takes an upward
turn. coming to within short distance
of the surface of the earth and above
the level of water in the swamp or
marsh where he may be. He now pre-
pares a place sufficiently large for him
to lie at full length out of the water.
Here It is that he takes his long win
ter's sleep, and. as no air can penetrate
to that point, he must do without
breathing.
But the alligator does not go to
bed on an empty stomach. Nature re-
uuires something to be in his stomach,
but nothing in the way of ordinary food
not even the leg of n horse or whole
hound would last for many days. So
far the sake OF cormfort he swallows a
piece OF wood Almost anything of
suitable size will answer the purpose.
but the most palatable tid-bit in this
