Major John NJ. Carson, Chief of the
Bureau of Manufactures, in an official
publication today says: "a delegation
of German manufacturers who came to
this country recently to ask relief from
what they considered restrictive legisla-
ton have not, apparently, from remarks
of some members of the delegation, re-
ceived any great satisfaction. They
seem 10 think that special favors might
be given to German manufacturers in
administering the customs laws. being
unaware that the United States treats all
nations alike. Their threats for tariff
war on the part of Germany do not in
fluence American officials in their en-
forcement of the law"

The Trial of DIR. Brouwer.

Toms River, N. j., Oct. 12.-Tbat
much ground was lost yesterday by the
prosecution in the trial of DR.. Frank
Brouwer for murder of his wife was the
concensus of impartial opinion when the
hearing was resumed today. Miss Eliza
beth Hyer, Mrs. Brouwer's sister, who
had been counted on as a star witness
for the prosecution, was disappoint-
ment when she took the stand yesterday.
In her direct testimony she clearly showed
that she was largely animated by personal
i'll feeling against Brouwer. Her testi-
mony resolved itself largely into the ex.
preston OF her own opinions. She was
not even crcss-exam:ned. That Brouwer
and his wife frequently qusrreled was
established by several witnesses. Il was
also shown that he lived beyond his
means, had resorted to his wife's money
to help him out OF crises, aud had secured
endorsements ofnotes from Mrs Brouwer' 8
father. One bit of evidence was to the
effect that while his wife was in her last
illness Brouwer paid visit to young
woman in hospital aud carried flowers
to her. How much Brouwer profted in
a financial way from his wife's estate
was also shown as part OF the motive
which the prosecution is trying to es.

American VS.. European Capitalists.

Cooslsntjnople, Oct. 12.-Turkey
promises soon to witness fierce struggle
between American and European csoi-
talists. Americans, who have been
practically barred from Turkey by their
European competitors in the past, are
now making preparations to break into
the field.
Negotiations are nov in progress with
the Sultan looking to Americans secur-
ing concessions. Ambassador Leishman
has been interested in the project.
The tobacco monopoly will be the first
object of American attack, Germans
aud Frenchmen now control this and
the Sultan receives from them fifteen per
cent dividend. Americans who are
bidding for tho monopoly have offered
the Sultan 80 per cent dividend if they
are given a twenty-five year contract
and offer to guarantee that the ruler will
receive a minmum return of 500, 900
pounds.
Since this offer was made by Ameri-
cana the present holders of the monopoly
have made an offer of so per cent to the
Sultan for fifty year contract. He has
refused to listen 10 this offer, however.

Today's Telegraphic News
New York Politics.

New YORK, Oct l2.-Wilh one ex-
ceptioD the candidates of the judiciary
nominstors are TODAY the candidates of
the republican party for the judicial
positions to be filled in the coming cleo
zion. With Judge Oteo Rosaisky sub
stituted for Justice VIM. E. Wyatt, the
nominator's ticket was accepted without
question by the republican county con-
yeDtion last night.
Chairman Parsons won the place on
the ticket for Judge Rosalsky. Inci-
dentally Mr.. Parsons proved his right to
be known as the new boss of New York
county republicans. There were some
objections to accepting the nominator's
candidates expressed by the delegates OF
the convention. Passing around the
word that President Roosevelt wanted
them named quieted any opposition.
President Roosevelt had endorsed the
entire ticket, but Mr.. Parsons set out to
have Wyatt shelved in preference for
Rosalsky snd he succeeded.
There is a possibility that opposition
to the Tammany judiciary ticket may
vet come from the independence league.
Mr.. Hearst yesterday expressed half
hearted approval of the ticket. Some
of the league leaders are open in con-
demning the compromise ticket and are
talking of having a ticket of their own
put in the field. If this is ATTEMPTED it
is likely Tammany will withdraw Justice
Seabury, John Ford aud other indie
pendent leaguers from its ticket. Hearst
aud Murphy are both busy trying to
placate followers who are dissatisfied
With the judiciary ticket, but it remains
to lie seen whether they will succeed.
Elmirs, n. Y, Oct 12.-Wm. K.
Hearts, letter of acceptance of his nom
ination by the Buffalo convention will
be delivered late today to democratic
State chairman VIM J. Conuors in New
York. The letter, it is understood, will
discuss Mr.. Hesrst's attitude toward the
Buffalo platform and will be the csndi-
dates last word in declaring his free
dom of all bosses, and defining his poll
cies.
In one sense, Mr.. Hearst's letter of
acceptance will form personal platform.
BY the expressions in this letter he ex-
poets to make clear just bow he stands
with reference to the platform of the two
democratic aud independence league
conventions which nom mated him.
