LEATHER MAKING IN GERMAN.
Steady Development of This Impor-
taut Industry.

Consul General Mason from Frankfort
has submitted an important report to the
State Department on the increase and de-
velopment of German leather manufactures
during the past four years. He says that
as early as 1895 over 500, 100 persons We're
engaged in tanning and leather manufac-
lures. The value. of leather consumed an
nually by Germany exceeds 100000, coo,
while the annual aggregated export
amounts to fifty million more. The Ger
mans have only recently advanced from
the slow crude stage of hand manufacture
to improved machinery. This necessity was
forced on them by Americas rapid advance
in this line, by means of which she was
able to undersell Germany in German mar
kets with a much cheaper and far superior
class Of leather manufactures. in spite of
the low German rate of wages and Ger
many'S ralural advantages in hides and
tanning material.
German firms have secured America with
experts in search of informa ton which has
been skillfuliy turned to account in con-
verting her leather plants and tanneries
with modern machinery. One of the larg-
est New England companies, which turns
out exclusively high-priced tanning ma
chinery, has been compelled to enlarge its
plant to meet the demands upon 1t from its
European agent, who three years ago es-
tablished an office in Frankfort and who
has now extended his trade throughout
bSi illlO usli Id anu isliS-
STA.
The shoe manufacturing business in Ger
many has been also Americanized and i'm
proved TO a remarkable degree in the last
three years. The American factory-made
shoe is what has led to this change, it be-
ing cheaper, better and much more attrac-
tive than the German product. In spite of
the German preparation to meet this new
made demand for homemade manufacture
the importation of American-made shoes
is slowly increasing. The prices charged
for the American shoes are eXtravagant;
shoes that sell everywhere in the United
States for from $3.50 to 81 az sold there for
from $5.15 to S6.75.
These conditions have convinced enter
prising American shoe manufacturers that
the best method of meeting the German
trade demand is to open up in the prln-
cipal German cities handsome, well-located
retail stores, fitted up in American style,
with the grades of shoes most in demand.
This would enable a large assortment o.
good stock to be kept for sale at prices
which would compete effectively with the
best quality of shoes that can be manufac-
tUred in Europe.

here yesterday morning. Just before
court convened Judge Henderson, States
Attorney Kinks of Frederick county and
States Attorney Kilgore of this county, and
the prisoners counsel, Messrs. Rompel
and VIM. P. Maulsby of Frederick and Ed
ward G. Peter of Rockville, held a confer
ence, at which agreement was reached
whereby the prisoner was to plead guilty
to the count in the indictment alleging
manslaughter, which plea was to be ac-
called jury was quickly empaneled, and
without leaving the box returned a verdict
of guilty of manslaughter in accordance
with Judge Henderson, instructions. Glib
bons was at once sentenced to five years in
the Maryland penitentiary.
The tragedy which ended in the death of
young HORNE occurred while he and num-
Der of his companions were serenading
Gibbons a few days after his marriage.
While the party were engaged in making
the usual serenading noises in the yard in
front of Gibbons home, Gibbons suddenly
raised the upstairs window and fired a
pistol into the crowd below. HORNE was
struck in the head and died within few
hours. HORNE was bright boy, only nine
teen years of age, and was much thought
of. Gibbons reputation was also good.
The case was tried in Frederick county last
September, but the jury failed to agree.
Upon affidavit of the defendant the case
was removed to this county for its second
trial.

CLIMATE AND CROPS.
Weekly bulletin of the Agricultural
Department in Porto Rico.

The United States Department of Agricul-
ture weather bureau has received the first
weekly bulletin issued by the Porto Rican
section of its climate and crop service.
Early last fall Mr.. Wilson, Secretary of
Agriculture. gave instructions to proceed
with the organization of a climate and
crop service in the island of Porto Rico
and by the close of the year twenty me-
neurological stations, equipped with instru-
rents of the weather bureau standard. had
been established, with a corps of special
climate and crop correspondents.
The success which has attended the eff
forts of the department is very gratifying
10 the Secretary, and the work of establish
ing q similar service in the island of Cuba
is well advanced. Twenty-Five sets of me-
neurological instruments. together with
other necessary material are now on their
way to Havana, which is to be the head
quarters of the Cuban section of the eli
mate and crop service of the United States
weather bureau. '"'-'
In very short time weekly climate and
crop bulletins for the island of Cuba will
be issued from Havana. These publications
are printed in Spanish.

Protection to Pedestrians.
the Editor of The Evening Star:


District officials are now considering the
ACCESSIBILITY of adopting better regulations
for preventing accidents to pedestrians on
the streets. The principal police regula-
ton on this subject reads:
NO horse, bicycle tricycle. or other We
hicle shall be ridden or driven so as to col
Tide with any other morse or such vehicle
vehicles. or with any person, and the
driver or rider of such horse or vehicles
shall make way for pedestrians at the
street crossings"
This regulation of the District Commits
soners is too indefinite to be strictly en-
forced. You might as well say to drivers
and wheelmen, BE good
The regulations should be amended so as
to prevent vehicles of all kinds Including
bicycles turning corners at a high rate of
speed. Undoubtedly the greatest danger on
the street arises in suddenly turning cor
ners- There is an act Of Congress (vol. .,
Supplement Revised Statutes so which
fOrbIds riding or driving a horse faster
than four miles hour around corner,
but it does not apply to bicycles and the
law is seldom enforced because it is diff
cult to ascertain the rate of speed with
sufficient certainty to swear to it.
A regulation should be adopted forbid
ding the riding driving of horses, or
other draught animals, faster than a walk
around street corner. Any one can tell
NllttHtI Il nurse Is walking or lfOttlng. IN
case of bicycles and vehicles generally the
speed around corners should be reduced to
three miles an hour.
The plan for numbering and registering
bicycles is a good one, and it might be APP
Piled to all vehicles with good results
\ bicycle tax of - cents each would
cover all expenses of registration. If the
idea is to tax bicycles a the same rate as
real estate az per cent?, still - cents is
enough. The assessed valuation should not
exceed forced sale value. The average
secondhand bicycle would not bring more
than SD at auction. one and one-haif per
cent on SO amounts to 22E, cents
A tax of 81 a year may seem small to
some, but il would be a hardship to many
poor people who use the bicycle in business.
While the tax or registration fee should be
only - cents, fine of 81 should be i'm
but perhaps this provision should not APP
ply 10 visitors passing through the city
1t has been shown that the number would
be useful in case of lost or stolen wheels
also 10 identify wheclrnen in case of reck-
less riding.
The chief of police refers in last Satur-
days Star to wagons which have no name
or other mark for identification. These
unmarked wagons are used to some extent
by breweries and instalment houses, the
apparent object being to myStify inqusitive
neighbors. Breweries advertise beer de-
livcred in "unIettered' wagons. but | will
that way.
All delivery wagons, if not other vehicles.
should be numbered or marked for identif-
cation in case of accident or reckless drv-

PROPOSED NEW RAILWAY
Contract Closed for Construction of Washing
ton and University Line.
Prediction That Cars Will BE Rum
ming by June-The Route and
Prospective Extensions.

Mr.. j. D. Croissant of this city closed a
contract today with the Hevner Construc-
ton Company of Philadelphia to build and
fully equip, ready for the cars, the Wash
ington and University railroad, for which
a charter was obtained last year. Work is
to be begun at once, or as soon as the plans
and specifications can be prepared, and it
is the expectation of those who have the
matter in hand that cars will be running by
June.
The bonds for building the road were re-
Gently placed by Mr.. Croissant in the east
and every provision, it is understood is
made for the completion of the work This
road is the only one existing or contem-
plated that runs near enough to be of prac-
teal service to the American University.
One of the reasons why the school was not
opened for students last year, it is said,
was that of the absence of transportation
facilities.
The building of this road will remove that
obstacle. and the work that is now being
done on the campus. grading, opening up
streets and planting trees, will put that in
stitution in a good condition for business.
The Route Traversed.
The route is as follows: Beginning at the
junction of Utica street and Wisconsin ave-
nue., thence west on Utica street to 44th
street and Nebraska avenue; thence north
on 44th street to Vallejo street; thence west
on Vallejo street to 47th street; thence
north on 47th street to Flint street and
Boundary avenue, where a loop is made, re-
turning on 18th street to Chesapeake street;
thence east on Chesapeake street to 47th
street 1t will have double track, and
will be operated by a trolley, first-class in
every particular. An extension of the road
west to Glen Echo is provided for, and eX-
tension east to Connecticut avenue will be
asked from Congress. Transfer privileges
with all other roads is provided for.
The building of this road will open up
large territory hitherto out of reach, adding
largely to suburban homes and population
in the locality it traverses, and at the same
time developing a feeder to the general
business of Washington.

Speed of the Cruiser Freya.

The Navy Department has been notified
that the fast German cruiser Freya, which
has just finished her official speed trial,
was enabled. owing to the Niclausse boil
ers with which she. was fitted, 10 develop
LOO more horsepower than her contract
called for. This is very surprising record,
and one of great interest 10 all naval pow
ers. The United States has no boilers of
this typs in actual use, but some are being
installed in the newer vessels of the navy
and their performance viii be watched
with great interest. The performance of
the Freya Will result in Germany imme-
diately ordering more boilers of this type
for other vessels now building or in course
of designing.

SENATOR MORRILLS SUCCESSOR.
Judge Jonathan Ross Appointed
After Mr.. FifeId Declined.

Judge jonathan Ross Appointed
After Mr.. FifeId Declined.
A dispatch from st. Adams, VI, last night
says: E. F. Fifield of Montpelier today noli-
fled Gov. Smith that on account of his
wife's poor health and other family rea-
