DEBT RECOVERY ABROAD.
Ways of Suing and Being Sued 1T
 Various European Countries.

Magazine of Commerce.
 Of all countries. Germany probably off, fers the greatest facilities to foreigners for the recovery of money owing them by her subject A power of attorney is re- quired for suing purposes, and sum of money has to be deposited as security for costs: but the deposit is required in full at the conclusion If .Le l;tloa. All costs, together with the interest are recover able from the defendant
 In France the collection of trade debts Is usually relegated to the huIssier or bailiff. This official Is able to sue before Justices of the Peace, whose Jurisdiction Is, however. limited to debts of not more than 2oOf, about 8 pounds Where the amount exceeds this sum, and the efforts of the huissier to effect a settlement on conciliaton prove unavailing, the only course Is to employ an advocate and com mence a suit in the civil court. Here the costs may easily run up to or 12 pounds, an l whatever the 'esult of the action may be the plaintiff will nave to pay his ad- vocate's charges, and a substantial DOT ton of the court costs In the event of the defendant entering a defense to the suit. at least one adjournment will in all probability be ordered-it Is astonishing upon what limsy grounds this is frequent ly done-and the costs be thereby multi piled ad infnitum.
 The way of the foreign merchant in Italy, seeking to enter into his own by Judicial methods. Is full of vexations in the shape of exorbltant demands for translation and mysterious fees, every forward step of the slow-moving legal machinery calling for ample fabrication from the pocket of the unfortunate cred itor.
 In Spain the impediments in the way of debt recovery by foreigners are on a par with those of Italy. In the commer- cial court costs may run up to 300 or $50

New York World.
 Fire from water seems at first glance and to one unacquainted with chemistry about the limit of paradoxical. Yet na- tive of New York. now 6 resident of Williamsport, Pa, has, according to a special to The World of last Sunday, succeeded in perfecting an invention which separates water. or H2o, as 1t is known In chemistry. into it's elements and afterward brings them together in such a way as to produce heat and light.
 The idea Is not a new one. Jules Verne. in one of his scientific stories. "A Fancy of Dr. Ox," has exploited 1t at length in an interesting fashion. Now, like the submarine boat of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea-" the scientific fancy of the novelist seems in fair way to become an everyday fact. The Willlamsport inventor naturally does not tell the process by which he has been able to produce fire from water. In Verne 8 story the manner in which the oxyhydro- gen gas was produced was by an electric current traverslng immense vats full of water. by which the liquid element was decomposed Into its two constituent parts, hydrogen and oxygen. These were col lected In separate reservoirs and separate pipes conveyed them to the various jets, where a flame was produced, rivaling the electric light. The saving clause of Verne's s description of the oecomposing of water was that 1t was Slightly calculated by means of voltaic pile made of new ele- ments and invented by himself"
 It is not, perhaps, beyond the bounds of possibility in this age of new wonders that the Wililamsport inventor has. like pr. OK, made a discovery of simple and easy way of decomposing water and again of bringing its clements together in such a way as to produce combustion which may be practically utilized in heating and lighting This Is in fact what 1t is as- serted has been done, and If 1t proves true 1t will be an invention which will at last solve the fuel question.

Egozcue is Acquitted.

San Juan. P. R.. Feb. A.-The trial of former Mayor Egozcue. which began last Friday, on the charge of destroying the records of the city water works. consti- tuting. it is alleged. the only evidence oi extensive peculations and entertainments ended today when the jury. after an hour deliberation gave a verdict of acquittal A procession of 6enor EgoZcues friends was formed after the trial and. headed by 8 band. proceeded to serenade the former Mayor. The principal arguments submitted by the counsel for the defense at the trial were that the former Mayor was not personally responsible for the burning of the records as the various de- partments of the city government were independent and that, moreover. the de- struction of the records did not prevent the discovery of the frauds.

DIED FROM WOUNDS
LEWIS, NEGRO SWITCHMAN, SUCCUMBS TO INJURIES.
Was Shot Twice by Foreman Charles Tarleton in L. 6 N. Yards. Witnesses Testify to
 s-elf-defense.

Sam Lewis, the negro switchman who was shot Monday afternoon by Charles w. Tarleton in the Louisville and Nash vile Railroad yards died yesterday after noon from his wounds at 3 o'clock.
 It was thought at first that the negro was hit by only one bullet which pene- trated the abdomen. but examination proved that two of the pistol bullets went into his body. .,
 Witnesses of the affair say that 1t was a clear case of seif-defense. They say that the cause of the trouble was only a trivial matter, the negro taking offensa at some words which were not directed to him. It is said that the negro fired three times at Tarleton before the latter secured a pistol.
 About fifteen shots were fired. according to witness, nine by Tarleton and six by the negro.
 Tarleton had been released from custody on $500 bond. The preliminary hearing. has been set for Saturday.
