What S said to H> an authoritative statement of t»f exact situation was prepared yesterday. Tie summary is as follows: Tte world" - supply of potash is obtained txclcsively from German mines. Prior to Jrly 1. !>*& the production of all of the Qtrmtr. mines was told by \u25a0 potash "trust" c»:i«o tie Kolisyndicate. This selling trust. «• srndicate. dissolved on July 1. 12QS, on £ccoant cf internal dissensions among the potash miners tx>mprisin:r the syndicate. After the selling syndicate had been dis- i%\to representatives of practically all it* fertilizer concerns of America made, in Perfect rood faith, purchase contracts for their entire requirements with three re- epensirie German mines. The contracts were made with the mines direct, and were for periods ranging from one" to seven years. These contracts •sr»r«» the beginning of the present complication, for as won as they \rerf- rnaJ*' the remaining potash mines. viicii had obtained no contracts during the frrpensiori of the syndicate selling: agree- ZXSt. at once forgot their differences and erra.-jze'-' a new so-called •'fighting lynai- <s?e." for the widely heralded purpose of £pr.!:r.c the mines that had made the Aster contracts: in ether words, to de- pTTe th* entire American fertilizer indus- try cf pctash unless contracts were made rith this new syndicate upon its terms. In accordance with its outlined policy, the s9-ca2;*£ erhtinc syndicate" at ence begar & carnpaifm of threats and efforts at in- ejß<Ba.ticr. in order to force the Americans I erd the independent German mines to give . \u25a0- their contracts, but after six months of fcci ineffective efforts representatives of •he syndicate were finally sent officially to America with an offer to compromise with : •-• American buyers Before they Wt Ger- ! zz&ny. however, they had prepared and In- \u25a0 traduced in. :!.'« German Reichstag: a bill rtich. if passed, wwild by it? terms'destroy ! the contracts mad* by the Americans. Thes^ syndicate representatives upon their -rival in the United Prates Informed tie American*? that this bill destroying «h^r contracts would surely become a law sr. Germany unless the America* accepted •-<• compromise they offered. Then repre- F*ctatJves of the American buyers presented ; th* entire rnattf r to the State Department, erd. acting upon assurances obtained from the Secretary of State, refused to be rr>- *Tr*d into accepting a compromise which required them to {rive ur> about three- iourihs of the advantages they had secured - --\u25a0.-\u25a0 contracts made with the three nines mentioned. Th*n the syndicate brought a! of its larre influence to bear upon the Reichstag- to secure the passare of the law annulling | the contracts. The United States govern- Brent at this juncture notified Germany that It could not be piven the minimum tariff tr.fJer the Payne-Aldrich bill if this di.=- I r*trr4n*rory law destroying The- valu»» of -rr>itr?cts held r.v American citizens should "i*enacted by the Reich =• \u25a0 -- resro^ lss thl?

TO DEPORT SEVEN CHINAMEN. Ctloa, N*. V.. Dec. 27.— Seven Chinamen who came into this country from Canada in a boxcar and were discovered here be- cause hunger ma<!e them disclose them- Klvea -were to-day ptarted to New York. T morrow they sail for New Orleans and will co thence to San Francisco for de- portation. At least half of the gall«" la given over to pigeons, crested an- 1 , vi ! ted; pigeons for carriers and pigeon^ r : \u25a0 s There is an especially fine lot of Ite fantails. Beyond the. pigeons are the rabbits. Prizes in this class are offered not only by the poultry association but by the Fur Fanciers' Association. The rabbits didn't appear to appreciate these last, perhaps considering them too personal. The judges got to work early in the afternoon, and by nightfall many of the cages were decorated. Women exhibitors won a good many prizes. They are par- ticularly numerous in the pet stock de- partment. Mis.- Margaret G. Weyher drew several blue ribbons with her Belgian hares, and Miss Cora EHard got a number of "firsts" and "seconds" with her cavies. The show wi!l last until Saturday night, and many future prize winners are ex- pected to come Into oeing in the incu- bators, which are a feature of great inter- est to curious visitors. To-day the Atlantic Cat Club opens its eighth annual exhibition in connection with the poultry show. The tank where the water fowl swim was the centre of interest all day yesterday. Snow gee?,-, whistling swans, widgeons, pintail ducks from the Bahamas, rosy bill pochards and a score of varieties crowded the scant surface of the water. A tall German stork proved especially absorb- ing to one small visitor, aged six. "Muwer," she begged, when her parent pointed out the stork, "ask him pease to bring me a ickle brewer." In cages near the tank are other fancy fowls— demoiselle cranes, rightly named, with their slender, graceful necks and gowns of delicate gray: brilliant pea fowls and impeyan pheasants, with flowing plu- mage. One of these pheasants didn't like the show at al l yesterday, and a rumor went the round of the birds that he tried to commit suicide by hanging himself from the wire roof of his cage. It turned out, however, that he was simply trying to get out. The show is drawing a large and cos- mopolitan crowd of commuters, who wan- der ur» nnd drwn the sawdust covered \u25a0dates, an.l are perfectly happy figuring out how if they buy a pair of prize fowls ti-e eggs will pay off the mortgage by the end of next year. But the price of one of these fowls is no bagatelle. A buff Orpington that won a •first" Is valued at |SK . others are marked anywhere from Sim to SJ»*>>. and a single comb Orpington pullet owned by Miss S. Carey is said to he worth SI .OOO. It re3l!y isn't the automobile show that is goinsr on now at Madison Square Gar- flea. It's only thope toplofty Toulouse and Embden ganders trying be make people think that it is. The ganders are evident- ly bored with poultry shows, and are doing imitation of motor car horns to the ex- tent that some bantam roosters in the yards near them are kept in a continual flutter, fearing that some of their "steen wives will be run over. The New York Poultry. Figeon and Pet Stock Association has held twenty-one an- nual exhibitions before this, but the twenty- second is the biggest one yet. If there is anything in the feathered line that is not there, the association hasn't heard of it. Rows upon rows of portly Orpingtons, buff, black and white, double comb and single comb: leghorns, black and white; houdans, Plymouth Rocks, game chickens.

LIMITING POTASH OUTPUT Conservation a Mark for German Discrimination, Says Writer. To the Editor of The Tribune. Sir: It is true, as pointed out in The Tribune's editorial and in it? Washington correspondence, thst the potash difficulty iis a complicated matter. To this fact and I the activity of the German Kali syndicate at Washington is no doubt due the mis- takes in press discussion of- the merits of | the*dispute. One of these mistakes is that the Ger- i man tax law is a "conservation" measure. That Is merely an afterthought to justify a discriminatory law. As a matter of fact. there is enough potash in sight to last several thousand ypars. More than fifty potash mines have started development in the last seven months. The syndicate's effort has always been to limit production, not to conserve the potash deposits, but to keep prices at an artificially high level. That the tax law was aimed directly at the low price, non-syndicate producers and their American buyers cannot he seriously questioned. The law was "' threatened as soon as prices were cut to American buy- ers by mines that had broken away' from the syndicate. These buyers could not be- lieve, especially In view of the assurances given by German officials, that a law. im- pairing pre-existing contracts would be passe-i. But after getting the advantage of our minimum schedules the influence of the potash syndicate (in which eight G-rman states ar« represented as mine owners! was sufficient to secure the pas- sage of the tax law. Th* law does not bear hardest upon Americans because they are the largest consumer?, but because Americans had the. low price contracts which it was the aim of the law to destroy. It seems plain that if Germany can "un- duly discriminate" without suffering the consequences, other nations will adopt the same policy. Involved In the potash ques- tion, therefore, is a broader issue and one in which all foreign trade interests are vitally concerned— were the maximum and minimum provisions of the law meant to be enforced, or may they be ignored with impunity? It may also be pointed out that "undue discrimination" will probably al- ways affect only an amount of trade small in comparison to the whole commerce with any nation D.

As the old people left the poorhonse their cries could be heard for half a mile. People in BloomflVld avenue, in the centre of' the town, heard toe weird chorus, and a great crowd gathered as the Journey to the new poorhouse was begun. Most of the paupers were griefstricken because they te.lieved they would seldom have an oppor- tunity of Belling their few friends at Orange. The removal of the paupers was necessi- tated by th« plans of the Essex County Park Commission to utilize the property as tart of a park tract.

Dispatch from Brigus, N. F., Expresses Fear for the Jeanie "s Safety. In a dispatch to Herbert L. Bridgrr.an from Brigus. X. F., it is said that the schooner Jeanie has not been heard from for som° time, and that she must be either lost or frozen up in some port in Labrador or in Hudson Bay. Last summer the Jc-anie waa in tho service of the Canadian government for the supply of the Hudson Baj police Rtatieas. The Jeanio was sent north in the sum- mer of DM by friends of Barry Whitney v. hen he returned frum a winter of ajnette hunting. She now ie owned by Mr. Bridg- •lmn and r-aptain Samuel W. Bartlett, for many years in the service of the Peary Arctic ("lub. She is in command of Harold Hartl^tt. a younger M of the captain. The young man acted a.-; engineer on her cruiwe of a year ago. His Meads and those of the ejww are hoping that mail from Port Churchill, on the western side of Hudson Bay, may bring uuwii of bar and of her safety in winter quarters. The Jeanie was uninsured. SHIP MAY BE LOST IN NORTH The cook awoke to find two feet of water in his cabin. The pressure of water against the door made it impossible or him to open it. so he crawled through a window and roused the others. The fires were extin- guished, but the three men rigged a pump and tried to save the boat. They worked until up to their waists in water, and then swung themselves to the pier a moment before the tug careened and sank. Only two hours before sinking the Rich- nrds had returned from a trip up the Sound, and when the m»n aboard her turned in for the night she was believed to be perfectly seaworthy. No one can tell why she went down. The work of raising her was begun yesterday afternoon by the Mf-ritr -Chapman Wrecking Company. Crew Vainly Try to Save Her, Pump- ing in Water Waist Deep. The tug Leonard Richards, of the Cahill Tow'.ng Company, sank early yesterday morning, without warning, while moored to her pier in the Atlantic Ba-ein, South Brooklyn, Peter Oft<*r, the cook; John Nel- son, the fireman, and Oscar Peterson, a deckhand, were on board asleep when the tug began to fill, and barely escaped with their lives. TUG SINKS AT MOORINGS All Happy Except Won-Union Men, Who Lose Their Jobs. The far reaching effects of the merry yuletide spirit were responsible for the set- tlement of a strike, and also for the with- drawal of a case in the Supreme Court yes- terday which grew out of the strike. The strike was declared several weeks ago at the factory of Morris Green, manu- facturer of leather goods, at No. 186 Woos- ter street. Green had employed non-union men to take the places of the strikers. When a committee representing the strikers waited on Green last Saturday Green agreed to take them back at their own terms and discharge the non-union men. "This is the happy Christmas time," said Green, "and we should all be on good terms wtt*i each other." Then the strikers, just to show their good will, made up a fund and bought Green a fine Christmas present. The final step in the happy proceedings was taken yesterday in the Supreme r*ourt. when counsel for Green withdrew a motion for an order to compel the strikers to withdraw their pickets from in front of the Green factory. So all the persons con- cerned are merry, except the non-union men. who are out of their Jobs. CHRISTMAS ENDS A STRIKE FIRM FIGHTS EXPULSION Seeks Injunction to Restrain Cotton Exchange. . The argument by counsel for Edward Moyse & Co. and the New York Cotton Exchange on the motion of the former for an Injunction to restrain the latter from taking steps to expel the firm from the exchange was continued yesterday before Justice Page. Decision was reserved. , . The principal complaint of Moyse was that the firm was not permitted to have counsel present at the hearings of the charges against it before the advisory com- mittee of the cotton Exchange. Moyse de- clared also that the committee was not giv- ing a fair chance of defence. To this the counsel for the Cotton Ex- change replied that. the hint of prejudice was not originally in the moving papers and that it was an afterthought of the petitioners" counsel. As for the exchange, its bylaws provided against publicity in proceedings of the kind now pending against Moyse. Counsel for the exchange added that he had "advised against the ad- mission of counsel in the. case, which was one based on a purely business proposi- tion. f.^fev \u25a0 \u25a0 He said that the exchange meant fo do full justice, and if there was any evidence of a pool to be introduced it would he ad- mitted. He said the board of managers of the Cotton Exchange consisted of eigh- teen men. who had neither knowledge of the details of the charges nor prejudices. As it was, the lawyer said, the exchange official? had no knowledge of the pool. MAN'S BODYJN_FIRE RUINS Thought To Be One of Two Vic- tims of Blaze on December 16. "While searching the ruins of th*> building totally destroyed by fire on December 18, at No. 274 Eagle street. Greenpoint. fire- men yesterday came across the body of a man. thought to have been one of two Poles employed in the building at the time of the fire. The search will be continued to-day in the hope of finding the other man's body. The building was occupied by the Man- hattan Shoddy Mills. Eight or ter> men were in the habit of sleeping on the top floor of the factory, and all except two of them made their escape, although they were so bndly injured that they had to he taken to St. Catharine's Hospital. Before he left the hospital Philip Pro- lin ill J. one of the men. said that he knew of two men sleeping in the building at the time of the fire who were missing. One was Anthony Kolsky and the other was known as "Victor." WhPn Protofky left the hospital yester- day he w»nt at once to the ruins and be- gan a search. What he saw there led him to go to the police of the Greenpoint ave- nue station, where he asked Captain Cole- man to have the ruins searched again. The Fire Department was called In. and after the men had been searching the ruins for three hours they came across the charred body of a man. It was impossible to iden- tify the body.

.£(.*? mas not so much concern felt as tojifisagnitude of the business Involved asytert- -was that all Americans wer*> vitally

iaer*sted in the principle at issue. WhatS said to H> an authoritative statement oft»f exact situation was prepared yesterday.

Tie summary is as follows:Tte world"- supply of potash is obtained

txclcsively from German mines. Prior toJrly 1. !>*& the production of all of theQtrmtr. mines was told by \u25a0 potash "trust"c»:i«o tie Kolisyndicate. This selling trust.«• srndicate. dissolved on July 1. 12QS, on£ccoant cf internal dissensions among thepotash miners tx>mprisin:r the syndicate.

After the selling syndicate had been dis-i%\to representatives of practically allit*fertilizer concerns of America made, inPerfect rood faith, purchase contracts fortheir entire requirements with three re-epensirie German mines. The contractswere made with the mines direct, and werefor periods ranging from one" to sevenyears.

These contracts •sr»r«» the beginning of thepresent complication, for as won as they\rerf- rnaJ*' the remaining potash mines.viiciihad obtained no contracts during thefrrpensiori of the syndicate selling: agree-ZXSt. at once forgot their differences anderra.-jze'-' a new so-called •'fighting lynai-<s?e." for the widely heralded purpose of£pr.!:r.c the mines that had made theAster contracts: in ether words, to de-pTTe th* entire American fertilizer indus-try cf pctash unless contracts were maderith this new syndicate upon its terms.

Inaccordance with its outlined policy, thes9-ca2;*£ erhtinc syndicate" at ence begar& carnpaifm of threats and efforts at in-ejß<Ba.ticr. in order to force the Americans Ierd the independent German mines to give .

\u25a0- their contracts, but after six months offcci ineffective efforts representatives of•he syndicate were finally sent officially toAmerica with an offer to compromise with:•-• American buyers Before they Wt Ger- !zz&ny. however, they had prepared and In- \u25a0

traduced in. :!.'« German Reichstag: a billrtich. ifpassed, wwildby it? terms'destroy !the contracts mad* by the Americans.

Thes^ syndicate representatives upontheir -rival in the United Prates Informedtie American*? that this bill destroying«h^r contracts would surely become a lawsr.

Then repre-F*ctatJves of the American buyers presented ;th* entire rnattfr to the State Department,erd. acting upon assurances obtained fromthe Secretary of State, refused to be rr>-*Tr*d into accepting a compromise whichrequired them to {rive ur> about three-iourihs of the advantages they had secured-

--\u25a0.-\u25a0 contracts made with the threenines mentioned.

Th*n the syndicate brought a! of itslarre influence to bear upon the Reichstag-to secure the passare of the law annulling |the contracts.

TO DEPORT SEVEN CHINAMEN.Ctloa, N*. V.. Dec. 27.—Seven Chinamen

who came into this country from Canada

in a boxcar and were discovered here be-

cause hunger ma<!e them disclose them-

Klvea -were to-day ptarted to New York.T morrow they sail for New Orleans and

will co thence to San Francisco for de-portation.

At least half of the gall«" la given overto pigeons, crested an- 1,vi !ted; pigeons

for carriers and pigeon^r : \u25a0 s There

is an especially fine lot of Ite fantails.Beyond the. pigeons are the rabbits.

Prizes in this class are offered not only

by the poultry association but by the Fur

Fanciers' Association. The rabbits didn'tappear to appreciate these last, perhapsconsidering them too personal.

The judges got to work early in theafternoon, and by nightfall many of thecages were decorated. Women exhibitorswon a good many prizes. They are par-ticularly numerous in the pet stock de-partment.

Mis.- Margaret G. Weyher drew several

blue ribbons with her Belgian hares, andMiss Cora EHard got a number of "firsts"and "seconds" with her cavies.

The show wi!l last until Saturday night,

and many future prize winners are ex-pected to come Into oeing in the incu-bators, which are a feature of great inter-est to curious visitors.

To-day the Atlantic Cat Club opens itseighth annual exhibition in connection withthe poultry show.

The tank where the water fowl swim was

the centre of interest all day yesterday.

Snow gee?,-, whistling swans, widgeons,

pintail ducks from the Bahamas, rosy

bill pochards and a score of varietiescrowded the scant surface of the water. A

tall German stork proved especially absorb-

ing to one small visitor, aged six."Muwer," she begged, when her parent

pointed out the stork, "ask him pease to

bring me a ickle brewer."In cages near the tank are other fancy

fowls—demoiselle cranes, rightly named,

with their slender, graceful necks andgowns of delicate gray: brilliant pea fowlsand impeyan pheasants, with flowing plu-

mage.

One of these pheasants didn't like the

show at all yesterday, and a rumor went

the round of the birds that he tried to

commit suicide by hanging himself from

the wire roof of his cage. It turned out,

however, that he was simply trying to get

out.

The show is drawing a large and cos-mopolitan crowd of commuters, who wan-der ur» nnd drwn the sawdust covered\u25a0dates, an.l are perfectly happy figuring

out how if they buy a pair of prize

fowls ti-e eggs will pay off the mortgage

by the end of next year. But the price ofone of these fowls is no bagatelle. A buffOrpington that won a •first" Is valued at|SK . others are marked anywhere from

Sim to SJ»*>>. and a single comb Orpington

pullet owned by Miss S. Carey is said to

he worth SI.OOO.

It re3l!y isn't the automobile show thatis goinsr on now at Madison Square Gar-flea. It's only thope toplofty Toulouse and

Embden ganders trying be make people

think that it is. The ganders are evident-ly bored with poultry shows, and are doing

imitation of motor car horns to the ex-tent that some bantam roosters in theyards near them are kept in a continualflutter, fearing that some of their "steenwives will be run over.

The New York Poultry. Figeon and PetStock Association has held twenty-one an-nual exhibitions before this, but the twenty-

second is the biggest one yet. Ifthere isanything in the feathered line that is notthere, the association hasn't heard of it.Rows upon rows of portly Orpingtons, buff,

black and white, double comb and single

comb: leghorns, black and white; houdans,Plymouth Rocks, game chickens. TYyan-

dotfes. hrarmas and Hamburgs of every

known variety; every kind of pigeon im-aginable; water fowl. Chinese owls, Africanowls, Japanese bantams. Polish bantams.Chinese gpese. East Indian ducks, Rouen

ducks— a regular congress of nations. Alsothere are rabbits, rats, cavies. canaries, onegoat and so many turkeys that it is hardto believe that Thanksgiving and Christ-

mas are over.

LIMITING POTASH OUTPUTConservation a Mark for German

Discrimination, Says Writer.To the Editor of The Tribune.

Sir: It is true, as pointed out in TheTribune's editorial and in it? Washingtoncorrespondence, thst the potash difficultyiis a complicated matter. To this fact andIthe activity of the German Kali syndicateat Washington is no doubt due the mis-takes in press discussion of-the merits of

| the*dispute.One of these mistakes is that the Ger-

iman tax law is a "conservation" measure.That Is merely an afterthought to justifya discriminatory law. As a matter of fact.there is enough potash in sight to lastseveral thousand ypars. More than fiftypotash mines have started development inthe last seven months. The syndicate'seffort has always been to limit production,not to conserve the potash deposits, but tokeep prices at an artificially high level.

That the tax law was aimed directly atthe low price, non-syndicate producers andtheir American buyers cannot he seriouslyquestioned. The law was

"'threatened as

soon as prices were cut to American buy-ers by mines that had broken away' fromthe syndicate. These buyers could not be-lieve, especially In view of the assurancesgiven by German officials, that a law. im-pairing pre-existing contracts would bepasse-i. But after getting the advantageof our minimum schedules the influenceof the potash syndicate (in which eightG-rman states ar« represented as mineowners! was sufficient to secure the pas-sage of the tax law.

Th* law does not bear hardest uponAmericans because they are the largestconsumer?, but because Americans had the.low price contracts which it was the aimof the law to destroy.Itseems plain that if Germany can "un-

duly discriminate" without suffering theconsequences, other nations will adopt thesame policy. Involved In the potash ques-tion, therefore, is a broader issue and onein which all foreign trade interests arevitally concerned— were the maximum andminimum provisions of the law meant tobe enforced, or may they be ignored withimpunity? Itmay also be pointed out that"undue discrimination" will probably al-ways affect only an amount of trade smallin comparison to the whole commerce withany nation D. T..PIERCE,

Only two hours before sinking the Rich-nrds had returned from a trip up theSound, and when the m»n aboard herturned in for the night she was believedto be perfectly seaworthy. No one can tellwhy she went down. The work of raising

TUG SINKS AT MOORINGS

All Happy Except Won-Union Men,

Who Lose Their Jobs.The far reaching effects of the merry

yuletide spirit were responsible for the set-tlement of a strike, and also for the with-drawal of a case in the Supreme Court yes-terday which grew out of the strike.

The strike was declared several weeksago at the factory of Morris Green, manu-facturer of leather goods, at No. 186 Woos-ter street. Green had employed non-unionmen to take the places of the strikers.When a committee representing the strikerswaited on Green last Saturday Greenagreed to take them back at their ownterms and discharge the non-union men.

"This is the happy Christmas time," saidGreen, "and we should all be on goodterms wtt*i each other."

Then the strikers, just to show theirgood will, made up a fund and bought

Green a fine Christmas present.

The final step in the happy proceedingswas taken yesterday in the Supreme r*ourt.when counsel for Green withdrew a motionfor an order to compel the strikers towithdraw their pickets from in front of theGreen factory. So all the persons con-cerned are merry, except the non-unionmen. who are out of their Jobs.

CHRISTMAS ENDS A STRIKE

FIRM FIGHTS EXPULSIONSeeks Injunction to Restrain

• Cotton Exchange. .The argument by counsel for Edward

Moyse & Co. and the New York CottonExchange on the motion of the former foran Injunction to restrain the latter fromtaking steps to expel the firm from theexchange was continued yesterday beforeJustice Page. Decision was reserved. , .

The principal complaint of Moyse wasthat the firm was not permitted to havecounsel present at the hearings of thecharges against itbefore the advisory com-mittee of the cotton Exchange. Moyse de-clared also that the committee was not giv-ing a fair chance of defence.

To this the counsel for the Cotton Ex-change replied that. the hint of prejudice

was not originally in the moving papersand that it was an afterthought of thepetitioners" counsel. As for the exchange,

its bylaws provided against publicity inproceedings of the kind now pendingagainst Moyse. Counsel for the exchange

added that he had "advised against the ad-mission of counsel in the.case, which wasone based on a purely business proposi-

tion. f.^fev \u25a0

\u25a0

He said that the exchange meant fo do

full justice, and if there was any evidenceof a pool to be introduced it would he ad-mitted. He said the board of managers

of the Cotton Exchange consisted of eigh-

teen men. who had neither knowledge ofthe details of the charges nor prejudices.

As it was, the lawyer said, the exchange

official? had no knowledge of the pool.
