EUROPEAN EGGS ARRIVE.
About 100000 Dozen Have Come. Each
Egg Coated with PAramn.

For the first time in five years European
eggs are now being imported into this
country. The foreign eggs began to
arrive several days ago and are still
coming. They are all shipped by brokers
from Hull, England, but were gathered
originally from Austria. France aud
Germany.
Up TO yesterday the total receipts OF
the foreign eggs amounted to 900 cases.
holding upward OF $1,000 dozen.
All the foreign eggs are coated on the
outside Of the shell with a secret COM
pound OF parafiin to preserve them.
The coating is almost transparent, but
It Is so noticeable that foreign eggs may
be readily distinguished by it's presence
from the domestic. The coating is not
removed. 50 that the public In buying the
eggs in the grocery stores will know il
It is getting foreign or domestic products
Arrangements for the movement Of
European eggs to New York were begun
several weeks ago. when the fresh gathered
eggs were bringing 5o cents a dozen rat
wholesale in this city, and even storage
eggs were up. to 2s or 20 cents Since
then prices have been steadily declin-
ing, and yesterday the finest fresh gathered
eggs were quoted at IS to 2s1S cents at
Wholesale, while the first grade OF eggs
in ware houses could be bought at %
to % cents.
The foreign eggs are sold at wholesale
for kom % TO "a cents. The duty on the
foreign eggs is five cents a dozen and
the shipping charges about four cents
dozen. The dealers say that the Lon
don and other European markets are
flooded with eggs aud the extremely
low prices abroad enable the shippers
TO pay the nine cents for duty and freight
and make a profit in New York, even
az the prices now prevailing here
Dealers who are handling the European
eggs say that the foreign preserving
process maintains fresher flavor than
is obtained by the American plan OF
keeping the eggs in ice.

Mile Ditch dug Last Year.

CHICAGO, Feb. IA new canal on
Mars. a thousand miles in length, has
been discovered by Prof Perolval Lowell

mer, that the planet is inhabited. The
announcement OF the discovery was
made to-day to Prof. s. W. Burnham OF
the Yerkes Observatory.
Prof. Lowell spent a few hours in
Chicago on his way West. Not only did
Prof. Lowell see the new canal but he
photographed it. Previous photographs
OF this region. made as late as last May.
failed to show any trace OF the new canal.
The fact that it developed between May
and September. when II was first OBJ
served. Prof. Lowell regards as positive
proof that it is artificial and therefore that
living beings exist on the planet.
Prof Lowell's discovery is 6 the
utmost importance. said Prof. Burnham.
1T seems to be the stronger, confirmation
yet obtained of the belief 'u., tpere are
living intelligent beings ., ..4'S. IL is
bound To cause a stir in o., 'sorld OF
astronomy.
Prof, Lowe's theory tina, the mark
ings on the planet are canals aud that these
canals are the work of living beings Is the
only one that fits all the known facts"

WHY DOUGLAS sTOOD By WILDE.
stdeIIghts on Old British Scandal In Man.
ners-Sutton Libel sutt.


LONDON. Feb. 1.-The trial OF the libel
Sutton. son OF viscount Canterbury
and senior partner in a religious publish
ing firm. against T. W. II. Grassland,
editor Of the Academy. was resumed in
the Old Bailey this msrning. The suit is
based on articles printed In the Academy
which reflected on the moral character
OF the plaintiff.
Mr.. Grassland again took the stand.
He proved to be truculent witness and
had to be rebuked several times by
the Judge. He declared that the girl TO
whom Manners-Sutton paid 5000 had
been got out Of the way In order TO prevent
her being called by the defence. This
girls name has been given a. Maggie
Dupont and she Ia supposed 20 be some
where in Philadelphia.
Lord Alfred Douglas was the next wit
ness. He acknowledged that he had
written letter to the plaintiff in which
he called him harsh nance. He said that
subsequent events showed that he was
justified in using this language.
In reply to questions by counsel. who
recalled his lordship's connection with the
NOTORIOUS Oscar Wilde case. the witness
said he resented his fathers interference
with his friendship for Wilde because his
father had at the time been divorced from
his mother for six years. and the ordinary
relations Of father and son did not exist
between them.
Wilde after he was released from prison
came 70 him et Naples and se!d: 'You are
the only friend have. II you leave me I
will go straight to haal-'
The witness. therefore. stuck to Wilde
until the latter died. and paid his funeral
expenses. He had no regrets for his action
in this matter.
The hearing was then adjourned.

 Caragas in a suit filed today in the Common Pleas court, says that on July 31 Stamola with two companions en- tered his place of business and ordered a meal. There was a dispute over the amount of change Stamola was to re- ceiye. Stamola became excited and snatched 20 one dollar bills from the hands of Caragas, tearing the green backs to pieces and scattering them broadcast over the restaurant floor. This was a signal for a general mix up. fists flying right and left until the police put stop to the argument. But that was not all Caragas says that the time there were about 40 GUS toners in the restaurant. all of whom left the establishment without paying, while the fight was in progress. Cara gas also says that Stamola also as- sauIted Mrs Caragas. breaking one of her ribs. Because of her injuries Caragas says that he has had to pay out considerable for medical treatment and that he has had to employ another woman to take his wife's place in the restaurant.
