Washington. April spencer Eddy,
secretary of the United States legation
at CcnstantinOpIe, has arrived i'm Wash
lEgton on leave from his post and today
paid his respects 10 Secretary Hay and

supplying firearms and ammunition to
the MacedOnians' who are in revolt
against the Turkish government. The
leading spirit of the rebels is Boris Sa-
ranOn. VINO at one time was accused Of
killing Stambul0n, the Bulgarian pre-
mier.
The American claims remaining
against the Turkish government are
said to be technical In large part. and
at any rate they are not financial in
their nature. all such claims having
been settled I'm full by the Turkish gov
eminent. What is now desired is a full

WENT QUIETLY
INTO EFFECT
Germany's Meat Inspection Law
Now in Force.
WILL HURT AMERICAN TRADE
BUT THAT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN
THE OBJECT IN VIEW.

Berlin. April 2-The last provisions
Of the meat inspection law OF June 8.
1900. went into effect quietly yesterday
at the ports and throughout the en-
pire. This most faT-reaching and
sumptuary measure was put in opera
ton piecemeaI by occasional DEGREES.
because of the ministry of the interior
having to create the inspection ma
chiEery. Section Il. referring to canned
meats and sausages, which became ef-
fective Sept. ,. 1901, further reduced
American imports in that line, but
boracic cured beef had been coming
until March, though of late somewhat
less than 100000 pounds per month were
imported from America. The export
ers will endeavor To cure beef without
boraX and thus comply with the Ger
man law. which as il now appears Dy
no means destroys the American mea
trade here, and il is not lmpTopaple
that the total American meat imports
this year viii equal those Of 1901, Wheh
the total valuation was about So,OOVOVO.
Owing to high prices and insufficient
home supplies. more than three-quai
tiers of the imports Of American meats
are preserved.

from Wyoming into Steamboat Springs
before the Monat road can get into
that country and at that point con-
nections are TO be made with the Rio

out, but the most improbable feature Of
the project is the connection with a
Gould line In order 10 cut out another
