Everybody cries out vigorously
against adulteration Of foods, but the
evil grows because there is profit in
the practice and nobody has devised an
adequate remedy. It begins with the
producer, and the adulterants accumu-
late as the dehled product passes
through successive trading establish
ments. All producers and all dealers
are opposed to all food authorizations
that they do not control, and decry de-
teriorations of all products other than
those they handle. The practice of cof-
fee adulteration and the manufacture
of counterfeit coffees has grown so
great that It threatens destruction of
coffee farming. The coffee grow
ers of Brazil have just sent a commits
sion to England to start a movement
for suppression Of the manufacture OF
counterfeit coffees. They state that
the use of these adulterants and sub
stitutes, which are sold TO consumers as
pure coffees, has become so prevalent
that consumers have acquired a taste
for them. and have lost their apprecia-
ion OF the natural berry and that the
sale Of the latter is therefore becoming
less and less. causing constant de-
probation in price and rapidly render
ing the coffee industry improbable.

Manila, March 1.-The rebels are very
active at Caloocan and Malabon. They
evidently intend to mount a battery in
front of the Malabon church, destroyed
by the fire of the United States moni-
tor Monadnock on Feb. q. They can
be seen throwing up earthworks for
guns and emplacements.
There was the usual deSultory firing
yesterday evening and today, but only
one casualty resulted, Private Parks,
company K, California volunteers.
The Nebraska volunteers at the res
ervoir, had a slight brush with a small
body Of the enemy this morning. The

The United States transport Arizona

the situation is unchanged.
Manila, March 1T was unusually
quiet along the whole line last night
only a few shots being fired from a
rebel field gun near the cemetery.
The enemy are apparently busy pre-
pairing their defenses, realizing that the
Americans will attack them when the
expected reinforcements arrive.
1t is reported that Aguinaldo will only
release the Spanish clerical prisoners
upon condition that all landed and
other property that they own shall be
to the rebels and also that
the native priests shall be recognized.
Last night twelve rebels in two ca
noes, were discovered padding out from
Paranaque. When the Buffalo's search
light was turned on the rebels they used
a calcium light signal arranged with
the picket boats. The searchlight was
taken off and the rebels attempted to
cross the bay, but a patrol boat over
hauled them after a chase and took
them prisoners to Manila.
