now proposes to have samples Of these
imports analyzed and tested as to their
purity. Much of this stuff comes from
Germany, which country has been and
is unfairly technical and fussy as to the
purity Of American products. There
has long been a well founded suspicion
that the ragtag and bobtsil apple refuse
Of American cider mills and eyaporators,
for which there is a steady foreign mar
ket, returns later disguised as sparkling
champagne under fancy foreign brand
and that the oil products Of southern
cotton mills after European tour comes
back to flavor American salads as the
purest olive oil. This is the beginning
of a good work.

The evolution of the Poland-C China
hog from its Arkansas rooter ancestry
has been worth untold millions TO the
country, and queer thing is that not
withstanding the success attained with
the hog, little or nothing until within a
year or two has ever been done to inn
prove the corn upon which he is fed. II
is probably entirely within reason to say
that fully as much improvement can be
made in the corn as in the hog. A few
are getting on to the truth of this and
more will soon.

ulative conditions OF the past three

that is good thing. Interest rates are

Hardpan is in sight. The land boom

prevent cut in wages and not to com

off when the man will be hunting the
job instead Of the job hunting the man.

Duty Forced Him to Stand Be-
tween Broadway Tracks and
the Space There Was Not
Enough to Insure His Safety.
NEW CARS ARE toe BROAD.
Herald Was On Post at Dey Street
(, and Broadway, but Was Injured
and Had to Be Sent to the
Hospital.

Policeman George Herald, OF the
broadway Squad, was caught between
two open cars, ono northbound, the other
southbound. at Dey street to-day. and
badly injured The accident was due to
the fact that a number of new open cars
put on Broadway by the Metropolitan
system are too wide to allow a police
man regulating traffic to stand between
them when they are passing one an
other.
These cars are in the series numbered
between $500 and $780, Since Policeman n
Joiin Magner was nearly killed at the
Grand street crossing a short time ago
by being caught between two Of them
the policemen OF the Broadway Squad
have either held them up SO as not to
be compelled TO stand between them
when passing or they have stepped to
the outside OF the track.
Motormen on the wide cars have been
warned time and again of the danger
Of passing while policemen were be-
tween the tracks. but few of them paid
attention. The policemen are compelled
to keep watch for themselves.
Herald was tetweerl the tracks mid
ing on tangle Of teams. He had held
up north-bound car. No. 2.Sl9, at the
south crossing and a south-bound car
at the north crossing to allow trucks
bound up Broadway from Dey street
to cross the cracks. When he signalled
the south bound car to start the motor
man Of the north bound car started
also.
Herald did not know this, as he was
watching the uth-bound car. The
two cars met with Herald between
them and he was knocked down by the

Neither car was running rapidly. , or

getting the name of the motorman and

railroad lines in all directions, which
carry about 150, 10000 passengers per an
mum. When the presently planned
transportation lines are completed an
other $50 0oo. 900 OF passengers will have
to be accommodated or about 3oo, 900 o0C
passengers in all. 1t is now and will be
for long time the most densely trav-
elled spot on the face OF the globe.
"A station problem. therefore, at this
point presents unprecedented conditions
and difficulties. for which believe a
good solution has been found in the PLAN
herewith submitted TO you.
The engineering and transporta;ior
questions were, however. not the only
things to be considered. The entra nee
to the Brooklyn Bridge has long been
a dlsgraceful eyesore-a collection OF
dingy makeshift structures. Every one
feels that the pride OF the city cannot
suffer them to remain.
An Architectural Marvel.
The new City Hall station can be
made the means for correcting this evil.
TO that end the architectural features
and an attempt Is made In the plans
submitted to you to bring them into
aesthetlc harmony with the architec-
iure Of the new Hall of Records-sn
immediate neighbor
In their professional judgment II ap-
peared wise to go step further and
to conceive the architecture of the
bridge station, not only in relation TO
the new Hall OF Records, bur to a group
OF public buildings for which the clty's
need Is daily growing more urgent. and
which public sentiment, o. well as arr
tistlc opinion. seems to have located
along the northern side OF Chambers
street, facing City Hail Park and ex-
tendihR from Broadway to Centre street.
The grandeur OF the idea is shown
IN one OF the plans herewith submitted
to you; The bridge station vita the
ing on the right; the Hall OF Records
at ono end: the new Court-House at
tile other: the new Municipal Building
In the centre between them and the
venerable CITY. Hall in the centre of
City Hall Park, from which every
other building Ia removed.
The whole forms a scheme Of archt-
tectural maSnificence rivalling the fam
Gus Place de la Concorde In Paris, the
Trafalgar Square In London, the
Schloss-platz In Berlin. or the Rath-
haus platZ In Vienna, and has more
than twice the area OF any one Of
them
According to Mr.. Lindenthals esti-
mate, the total cost of the ground neces-
sary for these vast improvements will
be A,5sO,0oO, while that OF the nm
building and station will be N,446,SeS.
The total cost. therefore, will be saU2s, =

The shook OF hhc explosion was heard
for blocks around. and a spray of t1re

more than 100 feet. Blazing SCOT fell
upon nearby stills, which also exploded.
In the first few minutes 1t looked as II
tho entire water front. and especially
the tanks of the Standard OIL Company.
q short distance away, were going to be
wiped out.
Two minutes after the first explosion
four alarms were turned In, calling out
all the fire apparatus in Long Island

c.,.ei' requests were telephnned TO Will

were pouring flood OF water on the
flames, which were burning with terri
nc heat. From the river the fire-boat
David A. Boody and half dozen tugs
threw their streams. Other tugs as
