her trial run with ordinary coal The Louisiana. 1t
is said used only the best hand picked coal when

Admiral Evans under whose direction the
of the Connecticut were made said he felt sure the
average speed of 1878 knots for the four hours

coal been superior He said the ship was freer
from vibration than any boat of her class. and
demonstrated to him that she had consistent sea

GERI4NS EXITING DOGS.
Serious Scarcity of Beef, Pork and
Other Meats
from The Tribune Bureau !

Washington Aug. 10-Cnited States Consul Nor
ion at Chernnitz. has made official report on
the scarcity Of meat Germany and the efforts
of the government there find cheaper food for
the people. He says that the prevalence for a
year past of unusually high prices for all meat
nro,iucts throughout Germany has been the cause
OF widespread discussion and agitation and has
necessarily affected the dietary of large share
OF the working class
The government Of the empire, the consul con-
rir,les recognized the gravity OF the situation
during the last winter and provided a partial
raroedy hv lowering the tariff on carcasses from
several adjoining countries well as by relaxing
customs restrictions Now. wholesale prices for the
various categories Of livestock have fallen TO a
lower level in harmony with the laws OF supply
and demand. Retail prices FOR meat in SaXony
are however. maintained at the former hgures
and this has led to renewed agitation. II Is recog
nized that a certain amount of loss was incurred
nv butchers two years before they accornrno-
dated themselves the altered conditions conse-
rYenr upon a sudden check in the domestic supply
~ meat and that there is a degree OF equity IN
l.eening ND their quotations after the fall IN the
rates for livestock limited period The claim
is nov advanced that such period Is past ana
mat material lessening in retail prices should take
