FOR POTTERY FRAUDS.

BERLIN, Aug. 29.-American i'm
porters of Limoges and other high
grade china and porcelain may be
prepared to have their consignments
scrutinized more closely than ever as
a result OF comprehensive inspec-
ton of European potteries which is
just being completed by a special
commission of American customs ex-
perts.
The commission, which is now I'm
fishing Its work in Germany, consists
of Frederick Achenbach of the treas
urys department, Edwin r. Wakefield,
a special attorney in the customs d.
vision of the department of justice,
and George C.. Davis, dSuty appraiser
at Chicago.
The commission spent nearly two
months at Limoges. France. It's In
quirics there and at other earthen-
ware centers, such as Carlsbad, Meis-
sen, Munich, and Copenhagen, con-
cerned the cost OF production and
other factors entering into invoicing.
The system of rigidity which Col
lector Loeb's department now scruti-
nize European products continues TO
agitate the German exporting world
II is stated that the recent seizure
at New York of heavy consignments
from Solingen, the famous German
cutlery center, owing to valuation
frauds, has paralyzed the Solingen
trade, which is largely dependent upon
the American market.
Local manufacturers hear the New
York customs house contains hun
dreds of cases OF their wares which
cannot be forwarded to their destina-
lions until the suspected frauds are
Investigated.
II has been decided, therefore, to
suspend American shipments inden-
nitely, with the result that several
factories have closed down and
thrown their hands out OF employ
ment. :.

Ex-CoNTRoLLER OF NEW YORK
GIVES ROSES TO A PRINCESS
American Beauties Presented To Char
eiotte Of saxe-MeinIngen the
4 First Ever Seen In Germany.

BERLIN, Aug. 29-Ex- Controller
Hermann A. Metz OF New York is
spending the week end at the grand
ducal court of Saxe-Meiningen, where
he went for the special purpose OF
presenting to the hereditary Princess
Charlotte Of Saxe-Meiningen, eldest
sister OF the kaiser, selection OF
American beauty roses ON the stalk.
When Mr.. Metz was at Meiningen
last year, the princess, who is an ar
dent rose fancier, expressed regret
that German flower growers did not
enjoy an acquaintance with American
beauty roses. Mr. Metz promised the
next time he visited Europe her
wishes should be gratified. but hardly
thought II would be possible for him
to make good" owing to the rigid re-
strictions placed upon the importing
Of foreign grown plants and shrub
berry into Germany.
He brought with him on this trip,
however, three well developed stalks
which arrived on this side in an excel
lent state of preservation. BY care
full wrapping with fresh soil and so
licitous nursing during the last few
weeks, it was possible to deliver the
stalks to Princess Charlotte In q
condition which will enable them to
break forth into. blossom within an
other fortnight, II the weather is
sunny.
Her royal highness is delighted over
the success of Mr.. Metz's importa-
ton and promises to become a pioneer
In introducing American Beauty cul-
ture into Germany.
Mr.. Metz, who is still none the
worse for his cross-country flights In
the airship Parseval at the beginning
of the week, will return to New York
early in September, providing he can
find an empty berth on some comfort
able liner.
