ST. PETERSBURG. September a3-It is
reported from the Russo-German frontier
that the German authorities have again
discovered some kind of disease among
the Russian geese. and as a consequence
their importation into Germany, which il
a very large business. has been sus-
pended
A similar measure against Russian
geese few years ago nearly brought
on a war of customs tariffs between Rus
STA and Germany. The Novoe Nrernvs.
suggests that the disease is periodically
discovered by the German wholesale buy
ers for the purpose of lowering prices and
the buying up for the German market.

frame building in which John H. Clar-
voc kept the tavern known as the Trade
Union. The Perseverance Fire Company
responded promptly and subdued the
flames. The Franklin soon after aided
the former in the good work An inter
esting incident of this fire was that in
throwing out some OF the supposed feath-
er beds the tick was torn and the fresh
breeze blew the contents over the lower
portion of the city. At that period the
wanquepine, or cat-tail. was used as a
substitute for feathesrs. and this Incl
dent led to the name Cat-Tail Row being
applied to the buildings on 9Th street op-
