POISONED BY
CANNED SALMON

Several cases of ptomaine poisoning
have been reported this week and ali
are believed to be due to the eating of
canned salmon. One physician has
three cases under his care and from
the diagnosis made he ia of the opinion
that canned salmon is the responsible
agent although one case of sickness
no believes to be due to the eating of
a cream cheese which recently came
from the coast.
Prof. Shorey, chemist for the Board
Of Health, has not discovered any bad
salmon recently, no suspicious meats
having been brought to him for exam
ination. About three weeks ago DR.,
Wood treated a patient for ptomaine
poisoning, and learning that the pa
tient had been eating canned aspara-
gus which had been sold at auction, a
sample of the food was taken to DR.,
Shorey, who reported 1t to be bad.
Upon his order the remainder of the
asparagus, which had recently been
sold at auction but not delivered, was
seized and destroyed.

teach the people how to handle the cot ton.
 This experiment. as far as the Eng fish colonies Is concerned. Is not new. It was tried during our civil war when prices went skyward.
 The result was shipment of 1,700 bales in 1884 and of 19. 9.000 bales in 1869 Shortly after that the business began to decline. It fell to 54 bales in 1sSO rose to 5000 bales in 1SSo and dropped to one bale only in 1887 Since then but a few hundred ba4es have been annually exported. The cotton from West Africa Is of the short staple variety. It has a poor color and 1t does not bring as much as middling American cotton. The British ship own CTS claim that they can carry it to Liver pool as cheaply as cotton can be brought from America for the reason that they can take back full cargoes of manufac- lures to Africa, whereas the return car goes to the United States are light.
 Our Liberian Commerce.
 One would think that the United States ought to have the bulk of the trade of Liberia. It has not as much as Great Britain. The country is comparatively poor and its total imports amount to only million dollars a year. The popu- lation numbers 100000, but only 60 GOO of these are of American descent, and so far our colonizing schemes have not been success In Liberia all accounts are Kept In American dollars and cents. but

The Belgians have Congo, the road which has been built to Stanley Pool, having been great suc- cess. Indeed, Africa offers, a promising field for the sale of American railway materials. and. the steel trust and our bridge companies should keep their eyes on it.
 Our Goods in West Africa.
 We sell comparatively few goods in West Africa. owing to the fact that we have no direct steamship connection. The southern and central parts of that con- tinent are as near the United States as Europe. and steamers from New York and our southern ports should make reg ular sailings to Cape Town, the Congo and the Gulf of Guinea. At present most of the shipping Is done by the English and Germans. The Belgfans have lines from Antwerp to the mouth of the Con- go and the Dutch also take a share of the trade.
 The chief English shippers are Elder, Dempster & Co. This firm sends steam CTS to most of the ports on the west coast. and it is trying to develop the trade of the British colonies there in every possible way. It has recently opened up cotton plantations in Lagos. and has brought cotton experts from America to oversee them. The same has been done by the Germans. the latter having taken negroes from Booker T. Washington's school at Tuskegee to

In the growth of plant life, as In the process of human digestion to whieh 1t is somewhat analogous, the presence of coIIoidal substance in the material from which the plant derives its food offers the hope of a future explanation of a pro- cess that his hitherto lacked any complete scientific explanation. And in the tn- dustrial sciences. particularly dyeing wherein the transfer of color is in some cases doubtless the transference of cnlors ed colloidal particles from a solution to the fabric by the depositing action of salts, the further study of the colloids is likely to be of considerable practical value.

 The .-frican Mediterranean.
 There Is a big chance to increase our trade on the African Mediterranean. American cotton goods can be sold in Morocco. Algeria and Tunisia, and also in Tripoli and Egypt.
 At present the French have the bulk of the trade O. Northwestern Africa, They have built up a big business in AL geria. When they took possession of that country in 1o~s their annual exports to it were only million and half dol lars. They are now more than fifty mill lion dollars every year.
 The French are cofonizing the country, building roads and railroads, opening up its wheat fields and making it one of the great food supply points of the republic.
 Our exports to Algeria are now worth about a million dollars annually. They are made up of tools of all kinds includ- ing reapers and mowers, threshers and portable engines.
 It is the same in Tunisia. which also belongs to France. We annually sell s125.0Oo worth of agricultural machinery to that country. and also quantities of tobacco. pork, corn and petroleum. The Tunisians use American saws and car penter tools and all sorts of American hardware.
 The Egyptian Market.
 The biggest market of this part of the world. however. is Egypt. That country is controlled by England. although nomi- nally under the sultan. and the United States is now getting a fair share of it's trade. The building of the Albare bridge was a great object lesson to the English engineers. and much of our machinery is now being used. The new railroads have 70 American cars and quite number of American engines. Egypt is largely lighted with American petroleum; 1t takes thousands of pairs of American shoes and a small amount of American cotton. There is. however. no American house in Egypt, and such business as is done is through foreign importers.

 The population statistics of New South Wales for last quarter should supply an object lesson to some other British colo nies, especially in South Africa, as to the disadvantages attending anti-immigration During the three months, the excess of arrivals over departures in the premier Australian colony was less than i LOGO. and the annual increase of popula- ton through immigration consequently falls short of A000. At that rate, 1t VIII take New South Wales twenty-five years to obtain 100, 900 new settlers from the out side world, although there are vast tracts of country which might be brought under cultivation were reasonably cheap labor available. But that Is precisely what the trade unions and their Parliamentary delegates strive to prevent The result of this bad citizenship Is that intending British emigrants look askance at Aus tralia, and turn their faces toward other parts of the empire. where their services will be more highly appreciated. although less urgently needed. But the evil does not stop there; public works. often or doubtful reproductive value. have to be undertaken to buttress the labor market; and So prevent the wage rate from fall ing; and the raising of the required capl-
