SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE. GERMANY IN DARK. Unable to Name Delegate! Until Ameri cans Arrive.''.. " . BERLIN, Oct. 14. The news sent out some weeks ago that the Washington government had failed to notify the German authorities of the sending of the Cortelyou export commission to this country, brought forth instant returns. The omission -was rectified by Ambassa dor Tower handing the foreign office a letter from Mr. Cortelyou in which he asked the German Government to nomi nate delegates to confer with him, and in all ways possible assist the American commissioners. It is learned now that the German government has sent a re ply, to the Washington authorities stat ing that it is still in the dark as 'to the purpose of the commission, and is there fore unable to nominate delegates before the arrival of tfie American commission ers. The commission originated from the situation created by the Limoges perce lain case, in which the American ap praiser's valuation was far higher than the declared export value. This case is still pending. 1 SWALLOWS FILL CHIMNEYS. ' What is Causing the Increase of Catarrh in Astoria.

The spec tacle of a flock of more than 1000 swal lows circling in the air last evening just fcefore darkness created a general dis turbance, and residents in the vicinity it Church and Copper streets rushed cut into their yards to ascertain the cause of the noise. ' For fully an hour they watched the birds' actions. Fin ally the leaders of the flock made an in spection of the two chimneys and be came masters of the, surroundings. 'AH night long the hours were made uncomfortable by the chirping and rest lessness of the feather creatures. As there was no redress or relief, the Leak f and Addis families passed a miserable night, fearing to go to sleep lest the birds might invade their rooms through the chimney holes. At the break of day the birds flew out of their roost and journeyed southward. t Dr. D. A.
