.Sptctal Cable Despatch TO THE Sun.

Special Cable Despatch 10 THE SUS.
BERLIN, May l2.-What is Niersteiner'
Tho answer to this question is being worked
out in the law court at Mayence in the
hearing Of charge Of sdulterauon against
DR.. Schlamp Won Hope aus Nierstein. the
largest wine producer in tho Rhine district,
which began to-day.
According to the prosecution. which is
represented by the State Attorney, only
the smallest quantity Of tho hook which Is
sold as Niersteiner vintage Is pure wine,
and what the lovers Of that brand tho world
over have been drinking for years is merely
water dootored with a certain percenta &c
OF alcohol, sugar. raisins and some other
ingredients.
The State attorney declared that the
defendant during the past ten years had
sold enormous quantities of this decoction
at auctions, to which wine dealers from
all parts Of the world came to buy. A large
proportion of the product went to England
where people are supposed to know less
about wines than is known in Germany.
The defendant asserts that his process
improves wine and that 1t is used by all
growers and dealers in Rhenish Heese.
He has subpenaed 200 witnesses who are
engaged in the Rhine wine industry to
support his case. A number Of physicians
and chemists will testify in behalf Of tho
State.

the author was too modest to appear, and
he fairly talked down the noisy ones In the

THINK AND ACT QUICKLY.
It's the Only Rule In Tacklins Motors or
Bicycle Racing, Says Murphy the Cop.

Charley Murphy Of mile minute fame
who is now detective in Brooklyn, charged
mob OF rioting Italians few days ago and
got a broken nose He got the man he
went for as we'll, and the reserves from the
Classon avenue station, with the assistance
of Murphy and Policeman McGraw, got
nineteen Of the rioters, An old bicycle
riding friend Of Murphy's. talking with him
afterward, asked what was the difference
between charging a mob of rioters and
crowding through bunch OF bicycle riders
who were bent on getting TO the mark,
each ahead of the other
well" said Murphy, Il don't know that
can describe the difference. il there is any.
OF course, the competition races i have
been in so many times have taught me to
think quickly and act instantly, There Is
no time in racing on bicycle to weigh the
chances for or against personal safety
There is only one thing to doireach the
end OF the race first. Also, you must realize
that the other fellow is thinking just as hard
az you are and Is willing to take as many
chances. So the thing is TO act before he
does.
THAT was the way the other day In the
trouble with the striking Italians. When
thew refused to move on when motloned
them to do 30 l saw trouble ahead. There
was that in the eye Of the man who looked
at me the hardest that meant action, and

cred from my stagger l had him only In my

There is no doubt that my ride OF mile
