lin complain that 81 .eo4 600 worth of meats
were imported to Germany in 1885, prin-
cipaily from the United States. and at
prices with which they are unable to COM
pete. They therefore petition the govern
ment to open the frontiers to the free i'm
portation of animals and meats from Eu-
ropean countries, and to restrict by all
practicable means the import Of meats
from America, which is steadily increasing
from year to year. The whole agricultural
population Is arrayed against the vast i'm
portations of wheat, corn and oats from the
western hemisphere: and measures are I'M
der consideration to break the contrib
which has been gained in the German mar
ket by American petroleum. .
while, therefore. the restriction against
the Importation of live cattle may con-
tinue, and the trade in American meats be
surrounded with annoying and costly for
NANTES, the que Stiop of food imports to
Germany is one in respect to which the in
terests OF their own people will constrain
the authorities to resist the agrarian de-
mand for prohibitive measures. There can
lie no serious combination between Euro
pean nations to make the cost of food per-
Inanently dear. The lesson which they are
learning from our country is to cheapen
Inc cost OF production, while improving the
quanty, not only Of manufactured goods.
but wherever possible, of agricultural
products as we'll.
THE rallying cry Of the present moment
In the beet sugar industry is that sugar
manufacture must be cheapened and made
Tree and Independent of export bounties
another valuable suggestion which Ger
many, as well as other European countries
Is receiving from the United States is the
Importance of small things in practical
mechanics and technology. the market
value of an apparently simple device or i'm
provement which enables one of the con-
secutike operations in a process Of manu-
facture to be performed better or more
cheaply than has been done before.
FL rom all that can be foreseen, 1t would
appear that competition in Germany will
sharpen and become more determined as
processes are improved and the whole econ
cmy of production brought more and more
nearly upon equal terms The contest will
ce one between natural resources. the in
ventive capacity to economic labor, reduce
treIghts, save waste of material and above
all, the ability to skillfully sell surplus
products in foreign markets In all these
except the last, Americans are acknowl-
edged masters. When they learn and act
unftedly upon the knowledge that foreign
trade must be found, developed and MAIN
tained by the same means that have been
SO effectively employed at home-by the
persistent personal efforts of competent
statesmen. showing the goods in presence
of the customer and offering them to him
| in the weights, values and measures, anG
| upon terms of sale and payment that pre-
vail in foreign markets-there need be no
fear of the result"

WEIGHING OF COAL.
Sealer of Weights and Measures
sues n Statement.

Sealer of Weights and Measures Is
sues n Statement.
The sealer of weights and measures has
called attention to the fact that there is a
misunderstanding among dealers and 9TH
ers respecting his authority to take up
coal in wagons and carts for the purpose of
verifying the weights. For general in
formation he quotes the law as found in
sections 10, IA, 10 and 16 of the act ap-
proved March 2, 1895, and now in force in
the District.
1t is as follows:
Sec. b. THAT no person in charge of the
wagon or conveyance used in delivering
coal, to whom the certificate mentioned in
section of this act has been delivered,
shall neglect or refuse to exhibit such GER
tifioate to the sealer or the assistant sealer
of weights and measures, or to any person
designated by them, or to the purchaser or
intended purchaser of the coal being de-
lfvered; and when said officers, person so
designated, or such purchaser or intended
purchaser shall demand that the weight
shown by such certificate be verified, it
shall be the duty Of the person delivering
such coal to convey the same forthwith to
some public scale of the District or to any
private scale the owner whereof shall con-
sent to such use, and to permit the verify
ing of the weight shown, and shall. after
the delivery of such coal, return forthwith,
with the wagon or conveyance used, to the
same scale and verify the weight of the
wagon or conveyance.
Sec IA. THAT 1t shall be the duty of the
sealer of weights and measures to inspect.
or cause to be inspected and tested, the
weight Of coal sold or delivered as afore-
said within the District of Columbia and
to take the proceedings necessary to en-
force the provisions of this act.
Sec. ID. THAT any person who shall yio-
late or shall neglect or refuse to comply
With the provisions of this act or any per-
son who shall deliver or attempt to deliver
coal OF less weight than that set down in
the certificate hereinbefore mentioned.
shall be punished with a fine not to exceed
Sloo and costs of prosecution; and the
court may make further sentence that
the onender be imprisoned in the District
jail until the payment Of such fine and
costs: Provided. That the term of such i'm
pr1sonment shall not exceed six months.
Sec III. That all laws and ordinances in
consistent with the provisions of this act
De- and the same are hereby, repealed"
me object of this procedure" Mr. Has,
keil says, is not to in any way embarrass
the dealers. but to educate them and their
employees to be more careful in the weigh
ing or the coal. We have not found anv-
thing to indicate that there has been any
disposition on the part of the dealers to
intentionally give short weight; but have
found over weights as well as short weights
winch satisfy US that there is in many in
stances, careiessness in the weighing of
coal Our only object in having the wagons
una carts Inspected is to protect the public
as well as the dealers; to see that the law
pertaining to these matters is obeyed and
at the same time extend all courtesies nos
sible to those Interested

report of the surrender Of the insurgent

the form of presentation was of such q
dignified character as viii serve as a model
for those to follow. The cable continues:
1.-The rank Of Juan Masso. his close family
connection with Bartolome Masso presi-
dent OF the so-called Cuban republic, and
the formal and military character of the

Hawaiian Treaty,

Mr.. Teller Begins to Speak ON the
Hawaiian Treaty.
The four days speech Of Senator Morgan
on the Hawaiian treaty was concluded in
the Senate yesterday afternoon. He spoke
for almost four hours, and when he fin
ished there were not more than half dog
en- senators present. He discussed among
other questions. the character of the pres
ent government OF Hawaii. He contended
that the disposition OF the whites was to
treat the Kanakas literally, and said. in re-
ply to question from Senator Hoar, that
there was one native In PresidentDole's cab
fEet. and five natives in the senate while a
majority of the members OF the house were
natives The senator read literally from
published documents on Hawaii including
a history Of the various constitutions of the
island. There was a call for a quorum DUR
ing the day, but the senator demonstrated
saying that he preferred small audience
to the interruption caused by the call.
Senator Teller took the floor and will
speak when the treaty is next taken up.

Freight Rates Reduced.

"It is not improbable that these appeals
will have, in the near future, more or less
important effect. Already the freight rates
for shipbuilding materials on the state rail-
ways between Westphalia and the ship
yards of Stettin, Hamburg and other coast
cities have been greatly reduced, and i'm
portant improvements in the water route
from Berlin to Stettin and the projected
waterway from Berlin to Rostock via the
Mecklenburg lakes are movements in the
same direction.
But by far the most significant sign of
the times is the rapidly increasing popular
ity and use in Germany of American ma
chinery and tools. Here. as also to a less
degree in England, American machine tools
have become the mode among the more
progressive class of machinists and manu-
facturers. The fashion extends at present
more especially to shoemaking and tanning
machinery, automatic lathes, planners and
milling machines, and to the important
line OF special machinery used in bicycle
manufacture. It seems impossible
to repeat too often or emphasize too strong
ly the futility Of trying to reach the Ger
man market with circulars and catalogues
printed in English, with weights and values
In pounds and dollars. or the importance of
ers and consumers in foreign lands who
may become purchasers. Neither Is 1t any
longer sufficient for machinery and other
merchandise to be exhibited only at Lon
don or Paris. In order to reach the Ger
man trade, they must be shown, and, in
case of machine, set up and put to work
at Berlin or some other large German city
In respect to machine tools and some
other classes OF machinery, there is, of
course, as reverse side Of the medal, the
fact that all this eager adoption of Ameri-
can equipment and methods is only a
means to the end of making German manu-
market eventually Independent of manu-
featured imports from any country
