Under tho familiar hendllno "An other American Danger," tho agra rian and cOnsorvatlvo ureas in Ger many Is commenting somewhat de murely on tho unprecedented Influx of American apples this season nud tho extent to which they have filled and dominated all tho moro Import ant markets In this country. Thoro Is not a fruit store or hard ly a market fruit stall or retail gro cery shop In Berlin or Its suburbs that docs not display as a prime at traction ono or moro barrels of Baldwins, Pippins, or other standard varieties, surmounted by a placard bearing the legend "Kchto Ameri konor." Not only this, but wagons piled with tho same attractivo mer chandise patrol the outlying streets and peddle the American fruit tt the uncommonly low prlco of 20 pfennings (5 cents) per pound. This, at a time when ordinary cooking apples grown in Germany and Austria retail for from 6 to 7 cents per pound, has furnished nn object lesson of comparative cost, quality and flavor as between the American and European fruit which cannot be misunderstood or ignored. The dimensions to which the special Import has grown will he Indicated by tho fact that only a few days ago the steamship Main, of the North German Lloyd Line, landed at Bro man 22,929 barrels and 1,540 boxes of American apples, whtcti Is said to be the largest fruit cargo over car ried across the Atlantic in n single vessel. From all accounts and the appear ance of the American apples dis played here in markets nnd stores, they have generally arrived in ex cellent condition, showing not only that they aro from a sound crop of good quality, but that American fruit growers and dealers have greatly Improved their methods of picking nnd packing iter export, Tho point Is provep thnt, glvou a good sound apple crop in tho United States, tho standard varieties enn bo exported with entire safety In ordinary ventilated barrels without nny of tho elaborato nnd moro or less costly pnpor wrappings thnt are used In putting up apples of choice quality from France, Italy and tho Tyrol. This, In vlow of tho high cost of hand labor In Amorlcn, Is n point of great economic advantage, but It does not In tho least modify tho ab solute necessity of careful hand picking, assorting, nnd putting while dry Into barrels with such care thnt all bruising nnd contusions arc avoided. Much Is doubtless due to shipping Jn properly cool nnd venti lated steamers. Instead of tho hot, stuffy holds of Blow sailing ships, piled with other freight nnd with hatches battened down from port o port. The general tenor of agrarian press comment on tho present Ynn keonpplo Invasion Is thnt It proves the Inadequacy both of the Gorman home-grown-fruit supply nnd of the existing Iniport-duty rate to protest thu farmers of tho Fatherland from this fatal competition. To this is usually added the fervent hope that those colossal Importations will not result in filling tho orclinrJs of Ger many with the San Joso scale. The fear Is gravely expressed that not even the German Inspectors can scrutinize such cargoes of apples as are now coming with sufficient mi nuteness to prevent an occasional "Schlldlnus" from escaping, and this, notwithstanding tho assurance of German scientists can tho San Joso scale can novcr thrive and re produce in tho cllmato of Germany, continues to Inspire apprehension In certain quarters.

Mayor MeClellan Heads an Investi gation by the Authorities Ex cessive Charges for Inferior Gas Hopelessness of Accomplishing Anything Through the Legislature. New York, Feb. 8. Tho high handed methods of tho gas trusts have at last exhausted tho patience of a long suffering public and .the citizens, thoroughly amused, have declared war against the trust and are vigorously upheld nnd supported by the municipal and the stato au thorities. Mayor MeClellan has taken tho Initiative and Issued strict orders to tho municipal authorities to make u careful Investigation of the numer ous complaints of tho citizens con cerning the poor quality of the gas furnished, by the trust and the high bills rendered for such inferior ser vice. Commissioner John T. Oak ley, of tho department of water sup ply, gas and electricity, In obedience to that order has ordered his ex perts to begin without delay a care ful Inspection of tho quality of tho gas furnished to consumers In Greater New York. lit lis charged on apparently good authority that the gas supplied by the trust is made of tho poorest and cheapest grado of oil, Is of an In ferior quality and Is forced through tho pipes under high pressure, to n.ako tho biggest posslhlo showing nn tho dials of the meters. Owing to the existence of certain laws which, It Is nharged, the gas trust secured from the stato login lat tp with the ('R-lstanco ol llberul bribes, the authorities are practi-Ml-ly powerless, as they have no m-iars of exerting any pressure upon tho trust Since tho beginning of tho anti-gas trust campaign several bills antagonistic to the interests of tlio trust have been Introduced In the assembly. Ono of the bills pro vides for the appointment of a com missioner to examine tho quality of gas In New York City nnd report to the legislature means to correct the oxlsting uvll. Another bill provides for regulating the powers of tho trust and reduces tho. prlco of Ilium' inntlng gas to 75 cents, If it is true, as has been charged, thnt the gas trust spends consider- able sums of money every session, to prevent tho pasago of laws In Imlcal to trust interests, there Is not much prospect that the two laws Introduced under the prassuro of public opinion will ever become ef fective. Tho Indignation of tho citizens Is so great, just at present, however, that the legislature may come to the conclusion that it would be unsafe to antagonize public opin ion at the present tlmo.

Announcement recently made at a meeting of the Technology Club that radium had been extracted from American ores has brought from Prof. Alexander H. Phillips, of Princeton university, who conducted the experiments, the statement that this latest discovery by scientists will soon bo so plentifully produced in the United States as to be within easy reach of all branches of science. The ore used in the ex periments came from Utah, "The specimen was between ?5 and SO pounds in weight," said Prof, t-uillips. "It was not the pitch blend used by tho Curies in tho manufacture of tho French radium. It was carnotltc, an oro of canary coior, containing as I found after experimenting with it, oxide of ura nium and vanadium combined with other oxides that produce radium. In extracting the radium I used tho Curio method, which I took from tneir paper, and I claim no credit. "As a result of this first extraction of American radium arrangements have been mado by certain persons In Buffalo, who own several mines of carnotite, to manufacturo radio-active agents on a largo scalo; and in ny opinion It will soon bo so plentiful that it win easily be within the reach of all branches of science. Tho increased production will nat urally decrease its cost and there need bo no fear of exhausting tho American source of supply, for I tm informed It is practically limitless. "There Is not tho slightest doubt that American radium can bo mado as strong as tho Curio product and equally avanablo for all scientific purposes." McKenna'a Reply, Hero is a yarn that Melvln Chan man, the well known lawyer and ox mayor of Oakland, tells of tho Into Attorney Georgo W. Tyler and Jos eph McKenna, tho lattor now ono of tho Justices of the United States su preme court. Tyler onco went to Fairfield, Cal to argue a demurrer to a complaint. After Tyler had talked to tho court for two weary long hours, McKenna, In that gentle manner for .which ho has always been famous, suggested that ho thought ''counsel had failed utterly to discuss the essential fea tures of tho matter." Tyler retorted in his gruffest tones: "Mr. McKen na, what you don't know about law and what I don't know would Oil a very largo volume." Sauvely but instantly tho llttlo gentleman io torted: "Yes, Judge Tyler, and that Is the work from which you havo been quoting all morning." ' The Kansas Way, A farmer of Neosho county, Kan sas, is running his farm by gas. A well sunk for oil yielded gas, and now bo keeps six stoves going in his house, lights overy room, Including hall and cellar, has gas heaters in his coops and hog pens, a furnace out of doors for cooking food for his live stock, a gas engino to shell corn, grind feed and pump water, turn grindstones and work tho churn, a gas light with reflector to light tho barnyard, a contrlvanco to Illumlnato tho barn whon ho opens tho door, heaters for water tanks In field, so that his cattle may drink tepid water all tho winter, if they want It.
