beyond human aid. His discovery is
undoubtedly the long-sought cure for
Bright's Disease and Diabetes.
This Is not easy of belief, and It Is

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. Frank H. Ma

GAS TRUST THEFTS
HIGH HANDED METHODS IN
NEW YORK HAVE REACTED.
AMERICAN RADIUM.
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.

Ores Found in the United States
Contain the Precious Stuff.
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. This might bo called
"light farming."
