Contention Raised by the Attorneys
for Former Banker Dreyer.

CHICAGO, March 29.-Upon the decision
of Judge Dunno in regard to the conten-
ton of the attorneys of former banker E.
S. Dreyer, now under a penitentiary sem
tence for embezzlement of $4,000 of the
funds of the West Park Board, who are
trying to secure his release on a writ of
habeas corpus, may depend the liberty of
every convict sent to Joliet from Cook
county since 1895. Dreyer's attorneys claim
that the mittimus in their clients case,
which provides that he should be confined
until released by the State Board of Par
dons was in error, in that the parole law
of 1895 provided that the State Board of
PardOns has no authority to release, but
only to recommend such action to the
Governor, constituted an error sufficient
to warrant his release. Dreyer's attorneys
have also raised the technical point that
Dreyer had twice been placed in jeopardy
by the dismissal of the jury in a former
trial before a decision had been reached.
When Attorney Mayer finished his argu-
ment to-day, Judge Dunno asked the
States attorneys If the mittimi were print
ed forms. Upon receiving the reply that all
prisoners were sent to Joliet upon this
form of mittimus, the court rejoined: IF
Mr.. Mayors contention is true there will
not be many men from Cook county left

The Kaiser and the Ambassador Dis
cuss Trade with America.

BERLIN, March 2s.-Emperor William,
in a recent conversation with Ambassador
White, ranging over various topics, men,
toned the rapidly growing commerce be-
tween Germany and the United States.
Mr.. White said: 81 hope. your Majesty, that
this great trade will not be allowed to be
destroyed
The Kaiser answered: mo, assuredly
not. Not If my government can prevent it,
Mr.. White asked whether the Emperor,
through his good relations with the Sultan
of Turkey, could not induce the latter to
open Arabia for archaeological excava-
tions. The Emperor smiled and explained
that there would be great difficulties in the
way.
The efforts of influential newspapers to
show that Germanys interests lie with
Russia and France against England, are
attracting some attention here. The Kreuz
Zeitung quotes an article by Prince True
betzky, showing that the Franco-Russian
alliance does not now have a threatening
character, but that England is threatening
the peace of the world. and that Germany,
seeking a new weapon I'm her augmented
fleet, needs an ally in order to enable her
to withstand the British pressure The
Kreuz Zeitung treats this sympathetically,
but asks some guarantee that the Russian
government would follow a policy friendly
to Germany upon the next explosion of
French chauvinsm.

BARRED FROM TURKEY
AMERICAN PORK SHUT OUT OF THE
OTTOMAN EMPIRE.
Said tn he Injurious to the Health Of
Turks-NOne Eaten by True Fol-
lowers of the Prophet.

CONSTANTINOPLE. March 29.-The
Porte has informed the United States lega-
ton that in future the importation of
American pork will be prohibited. giving as
a reason for the prohibition that the meat
is injurious to the public health. Lloyd G..
Griscom, United States charge daffaires.
protested energetically. demanding the an
nullment of the measure.
WASHINGTON. March 29-Mr. Gros-
cum has acted of his own volition in lodg-
ing the protest. for the State Department
has not yet been Informed of the prohibit
ton of the Turkish government. 1t may be
stated however, that his action Is
thoroughly commended by the officials. and
he will be supported to the utmost in his
protest. While il cannot be so stated offi-
cially, no doubt is entertained here that
the action of the Turkish government is
directly attributable to the secret influence
of some continental powers, whose position
in resistance to the demands of the United
States for the admission of American meat
products might be strengthened could they
point to similar exclusive action by other
powers based on sanitary considerations.
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson said to-
day that he had no official information
that Turkey has prohibited the importa-
ton OF American pork. IF il has been de-
cided to bar out all pork" said the secre-
tary, there can be no cause for complaint,
but If American pork is Disseminated
against we will have good cause to pro-
test, as there can be no valid reason for
excluding it. as it is the best in the world.
Ii is probable the action of the Porte was
taken on religious grounds, as the religion
of the Turks prohibits them from eating
pork. Statistics on file at this department
show that during the past five years the
value of hog products exported from the
United States to Turkey has averaged s13
