Cologne, July 1.-THE Association
Of Rhenish and Westphalian Grain
Importers has sent a circular to the
various German and foreign chambers
If commerce and produce exchanges
regarding the alleged incorrect class
lfication OF American grain. The cir
cuiar says the grain trade Of Europe
has complained for years about the
improper certifying of American wheat,
corn and oats, which has involved
losses CT millions CT dollars for inl-
porters. Thousands of cases of such
alleged improper certifying, the cir
cular asserts, are vouched for by sealed
samples of grain and the original Ger

percentage of the old harvest was GER
tificated as new and where mixed corn.
certifcated as Al grade arrived at the
port of destination totally ruined af-
ter ten days voyage 1t is further
charged in the circular that for some
months American oats certificated as
white clipper has contained mixture
Of 80 per cent. barley. The circular
goes on to state that Notwithstanding
the fact that the German congress Of"
chambers of commerce has tried for
years to secure proper grading of
American grain, the efforts have been
without success The association says

'ollate the material furnished by the
answers and, If deemed best, to call

London Lancet's Sanitary Commits

HUMANITY NOT COMMERCE.
He Says the officials Appear a. II

Than Cause OF Hygiene.

London, July 13.--''Why should of.
fcials appear before the public al
If they held brief on behalf of the
Chicago packers and seem DESTROYS oil
defending the packers rather than the
cause of hygiene, which it is their
business as health officials to endeav-
or to promoter" asks the Lancet's
special sanitary commissioner, In an
swerlng the United States department
OF agriculture's report, In which his
descriptions Of the Chicago stock
yards is criticised.
Commenting on the statement that
"in many instances sanitary features
such as light and air have been sac
riiced to increase the capacity Of the
plants" the Lancet's writer says:
"This practically is the truth.
My principal contention is that though
mora animals are killed at the Chi
cago stock yards than at any other
place in the world, there is not there
slaughter house or abbatoir in the
technical sense of the term.
"As these essentials, light and air,
are recognized as necessary to public
health, which must come first, the
official acknowledgment of their sac
rifce to increase capacity u.s." says
the writer, "a most barefaced admis-
sion Of guilt"
The officials, he continues. were well
inspired when they used the word
sacrificed, for indeed it is a sacrifice
of every principle and every sense OF
duty that should be held sacred. In
many countries the law would severely
punish persons thus endangering the
health of the country"
The Lancet's commissioner com. |
plains that the department miscon-
strued his meaning in many instances,
though in others frankly upholdine
his allegations.
Dealing with the departments state
ment that the floors of the abatoirs
ire washed with caustic soda and pine
Jar, the commissioners say: mo
amount of washing will suffice. The
ioors and the walls to the height OF
Tx feet must be water-tight and angles
'ounded of. There must be no raftera
and plenty of light and air."
He says, in word, that the prem
ses he inspected are unfit for the
purpose and should be vacated at
,nce. He speaks of the ..abominable
between wholesome
meats and condemned cattle" which,
le says, the report acknowledges to

party which Saturday night placed
$50 negro men and women on board

THAT ULTIMATUM.
II Was Sent to Venezuela In March,
1905, and the Answer Was
Strictly Defiant
BUT THEMATTER HASRESTED
The BeIliReernt Castro Informed
Secretary Hay That Venezuela
Had No Question Pending with
the United States,

Washington, July 16.-Tn view OIL
the determination of the state depart.
ment to renew its demands upon the
Venezuelan government for the settle
ment of American claims against Ven
ezuela, 1t Is matter Of interest to
note the precise status Of those trou-
blesome issues when negotiations
were suspended in March, 1905.
For the first time, the red. book dis
classes In terms the ultimatum laid
down by the late secretary of state,
John Hay, In an instruction to Mr..
Bowen, dated March 10 of that year:
1.-THE attitude of the Venezuelan
government toward the government OF
the United States and toward the in
terests of its citizens who have suf-
fered SO grave and frequent wrongs
arbitrarily committed by the govern
ment of Venezuela require that JUS
tice should now be fully done, once
for all. II the government of Vene-
zuela finally declines to consent to an
impartial arbitration insuring the
rendition of complete justice to these
injured parties, the government of the
United States may be regretfully COM
PEELED to take such measures as 1t
may find necessary to effect complete
redress without resort to arbitration.
The government of the United States
stands committed to the principle Of
impartial arbitration which can do
injustice to nobody and If its moder-
ate request is preemptorily refused,
1t will be at liberty to consider IL 1t
is compelled to resort to more vigor-
Gus measures whether those measures
shall include complete indemnifca-
ton, not only for the citizens ag-
grieved, but for any expenses Of the
government of the United States
which may attend their execution"
The Venezuelan answer rendered
March 20 amounted to rejection Of
he ultimatum, for it denied that Ven
zuela had any questions pending with
he United States, and propounded the
GLOWING Interrogation:
Before giving further consideration
0 Mr.. Hays note the Venezuelan gov
states that 1t must know
neither the United States respects
he methods and nobility of the Ven
zuelans."
Mr.. Bowen adds that the answer is
nyielding and requires no further ul-
matum.
Perhaps the explanation for the
ather defiant attitude which the Ven
luelan government occupies to this
ny, so far as the official correspond
ace shows, is to be found in a para
nrase Of telegram from Minister
owen to the secretary of state re-
'rting that Senior Jesus Paul, presi-
9nt Castro's private representative,
no was then in Washington actively

untry adverse to the asphalt claims,

D that the United States government

NO REDUCTION IN WATER RATES
Council Binds City to Maintain Water
Revenues Until Water Bonds Can
Be Safely Carried.

By an ordinance passed by the coun-
ell this afternoon, creating what is
known as the "Walla Walla Water
Supply Fun@,'' Tor the purpose of pay
ing Ior additions to the present water
system, Walla Walla obligated herself
not to reduce water rates until sucn
time as the city can safely do so with
out impairing the revenues of the sys-
tenn which are pledged to guarantee
the payment of interest and principal
Of the $3.50, 900 bonds recently voted
and sold to Morris Brothers of Port
land.
The ordinance passed this afternoon
makes it obligatory on the part Of the
city to guarantee the interest and
principal of the bond issue and covers
every phase of the contract entered
into between the city and Morris
Brothers. The most important part
of the ordinance is the city's guaran-
tee not to reduce the water rates and
the provisions providing for the pay
ment of principal and interest. The
city cannot sell or dispose of the sys-
tenn until the bonds are retired in
full.

There seems to be no room in Walla
Walla for The Statesman's old-fashion-

Spokane are so parsimorious and stingy
as to insist on paying only eastern
prices plus the freight for fire engines,
let them go their sordid way.
In March, 1904, with no fire engine
agency, 1 was telegraphed for by an
Ohio company to go to Walla Walla
and represent them on sale. After
declining and saying it was no use, l
finally went over to put in a bid on a
combination hose wagon. The new
engine happened to come up at the
same time. I never saw such a price
or a bill paid in such haste and without
discussion. Mr.. Smith, who attempted
to protest, was squelched. The price
was given at $500. Our bid on the
combination wagon, which we would
gladly have backed with a bond got
no consideration. 1t was low, and a
day or so later Mr.. Glasford assured
me that they would award it to Us and

council meeting they ran the high
priced machine through without paying
any attention to our bid.
