MATERIAL FALLING OFF.
Decrease in the Commerce Of Soutl
Africa.

South Africa's imports and exports de-
creased materially during the first halt
of 1908, according to a report Of Vice
Consul General Foster of Cape Town.
Into the countries which form the Brit
ish South American customs union there
were imported $6O. 724.713 during that Pc
riod, against $64272. 454 in 1907, the fig
ures for the United States being $o,oO1.-
374, a decrease of half a million dollars
for the same period Of 1907 Most of the
imports were from the United Kingdom.
The South African products, including
diamonds and gold. exported during the
half year aggregated 1O7.176, 7O6. de-
crease of almost $4,000. 600, for the pre-
vious corresponding period. a decline
largely accounted for by diminished dia-
mond exports
surprising feature is the increased I'M
port of butter in view of the good sea-
sons and diminishing population. but 1t Is
claimed that government-aided cream
cries manufactured and actually sold at q
loss In order to compete with the Aus
tralian product. This has been stopped
by some of the creameries which became
insolvent and the government is keeping
more careful watch on the others. Amer
ican-made cotton goods are getting good
share of the sales in South Africa.

SuBSTAT|0N SITE IN COURT
PETITION IN EQUITY TO SETTLE
SOUTHWEST DISPUTE.
Legality Of Commissioners With
drawal Of Their Approval to
Be Determined.

In order to have the court determine
whether the Commissioners exceeded
their authority in withdrawing their ap-
prevail of the site selected by the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company at 14th and
Water streets southwest for the substa-
ton. and to determine the right of the
company in refusing to select another site.
Corporation Counsel Thomas will tomor-
row file a petition In equity.
This action on the part OF Mr.. Thomas
was urged by Commissioners Mcfarland
and West more than a week ago. when 1t
was definitely learned that the railroad
company would not select another site
than the one proposed by ii at l4th
street Commissioners mcfarland and
West desire this substation located at
point on the railroads right of way near
eth street southwest. and in taking the
matter to court they hope to compel the
railroad to select another site.
Commissioner Morrow has, since this
matter Of the substation has been under
discussion, positively held that the Com
missioners are legally and honor bound
to maintain their approval OF the l4th
street site, and that 1t would be mad
visable to place the station elsewhere
In discussing the matter yesterday
Commissioner Morrow said the action OF
the Commissioners in withdrawing their
approval Is a question to be determined
by the court but under the act of Con-
gress providing the substation they are
without authority to name a site for II.
He contends that the law distinctly speci-
f1es that the Commissioners are simply
to approve site selected by the railroad
company, and no mention is made of their
selecting 1t. In ordering the company
to build at 9TH street he contends the
Commissioners are acting without au-
thority.

HABITS OF MUTTON BIRDS.
Antarctic Sooty Petrels Fraternize
With Snakes

Large poisonous snakes and mutton
birds. otherwise known as antarctic sooty
petrels. fraternize in the Furneaux Island
rookeries, northeast of Tasmania, accord
ing to Consul Baker of Hobart, who in
vestigated the habits of the birds. The
Mutton bird hunters in reaching into the
nests frequently lay hold of snakes in
steead of birds. The mutton birds fly
swiftly and irregularly and the consul
mentions that Capt. Flinders of the Brit
ish royal navy reported that flock Of
the birds he once saw was forty miles in
length. Even the lighthouse at Goose Is
land, one of the Furneaux group. has to
be protected from the birds by iron screen
work and frequently hundreds of dead
birds are found at the lighthouse base.
The birds are very methodical. arriving
in enormous numbers at the rookeries
every year about September 90
After the eggs have been laid the male
and female birds take turns at Matching,
each partner when relieved securing the
country in all-day quests for food.

Says Taft Vote Will About Equal
That Given Roosevelt.

CHICAGO. October 24-Talking with
newspaper men today Mr.. Hitchcock said
that he Is satisfied the electoral vote for
Mr.. Taft will be about the same as that
given to President Roosevelt in 1904. and
that New York. Ohio and Indiana will be
safely republican. Maryland, Missouri
and Kentucky he placed in the doubtful
column, declaring that there is a good
chance for Taft to carry Maryland and a
better chance for the republican ticket to
succeed In Kentucky than in Missouri.
The labor vote. he said. will probably be
cast about as usual between the two great
parties.
In connection with reports of President
Roosevelt coming west Mr.. Hitchcock said
that such trip is most unlikely. The
campaign. Mr.. Hitchcock declared, has
been conducted according to the original
plans, the heaviest blows being struck at
the close of the campaign. This method
of working up to a climax, he said, had
showed itself most effective.

DEPENDS ON GERMANY.
On Her Decision Rests Question Of
European Conference.
,ial Cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
BERLIN, October PA high diplo-
matte authority discussed frankly tonight
the Balkan situation with the cores
pondent OF The Star, as debated today in
the. interview between Chancellor Won
Buelow and the Russian foreign min
lister Isvolsky. In talking over this con-
versation. the diplomat said
ION Germany alone depends the Ques-
ton Of a conference or no conference and
Isvolsky's mission is to persuade her to
acQuiesce in the idea. His reasons are
twofold; first, because 1t Is desired by
Russia, who wishes to have the Austrian
influence in the Balkans limited and de-
fined and to obtain a share of what Is
going when Turkey is put on the dis
secting table, and second. because his
Usvolsky's) fate as a minister is at stake.
He has incurred great loss of prestige
by concealing from the car and his col
leagues his timely knowledge of the Aus
TRAN designs. He has many enemies who
are endeavoring to bring about his down.
fall. but IL he persuades Germany to CO.
operate with Great Britain. France and
Russia for a conference, his portfolio Is
secure for at least another year.
Russian Minister'S Argument.
'Isvolsky's chief arguments with Won
Buelow today are impossible to give in
detail. 1t is understood. however, that
one Of the strongest was that II is of par
amount interest for Germany that such
predatory acts as Austria has been guilty
of In the Balkans should be, so to speak.
legitimized. This argument, moreover. Is
one Of the most likely to turn the scale
with the German government which 9TH
erwise, it Is well known. Is opposed to
conference which can do her no good and
may damage her influence with Turkey.
prince Won Buelow's reply cannot as
yet be anticipated. but his most probable
course is that he will seek to evade de-
cision, not by a downright refusal but by
throwing the responsibility on Turkey.
Turkeys Sincerity Questioned.
"The sincerity Of the Ottoman govern
ment's present desire for conference Is
extremely doubtful. for although at the
first moment Of Indignation It loudly APP
pealed to Europe. now that calm refiec-
ton, aided by the strong advice of Baron
Won Biebrstein, the German ambassa-
dor TO Turkey. has been exercised, It
sees that Turkey has only lost what she
really never possessed. and recognizes
that it Is better to bear the ills she has
than fly to those she knows not or.
