lor the lust thr*« months, th« Department
cf Justice, it ■was learned yesterday, is
«*".fa?ed In a systematic inquiry into
closes of urjcervaiuation. To obtain
much necessary Information the Attorney
General's office, through the Department of
St3te, is 'being: supplied -with samples of
textiles that have boOB and are being
tl-.ippcd to this country from France.
Consuls are required by the regulations
to Fend samples of foossi shipped to this
country, the sample to be attached to the
consular invcice. but it was discovered in
the investigations recently made that there
•was grave laxity abroad. TTinfred T.
Desison. assistant United States Attorney
Ccnerai, •-::; on a secret mission to
--irasxjpe. and much of the activity of con
sisls is Joe to his report.
"'--■ m manufacturers have again and
«.cain objected to sendin? samples of the
poods that distinctive patterns, say
ing that to do so invited the copying of
their exclusive best eeilers. But in recent
rears the reflations requiring the sampies
•were rigidly inforced. It was noted that
tie requirement dxi not apply to laces and
embroideries. This, it was said, was an
error, in that no class of poods of which a
eampie could be sent with the consular in
vciers "»'as to be omitted.
The Appraiser. George W. Waassaker,
Etid yesterday that he had received a let

ADJUSTS SUBWAY CONTRACT
Conference Reduces Differencs
from Forty-four to Four.
After i prolonged conference -with en
gineers Mad counsel for the city and the
Public Service Commission Acting- Mayor
.Miiehel yesterday announced that the
points of difference between the SMBmis-
Eion and the Board of Estimate regarding
the conditions of the contract for building
subways by the city had been reduced from
forty-four to four.
•■We will keep right at it until they are
adjusted," said the Acting- Mayor. "I do
not anticipate any disagreement on these
points after we have had time- to discuss
them. We did not have the time to-day,
although we kept at it from. 9 in the morn
ing- until i o'clock in the evening."
Deputy Controller Mathewson, now act
ing for Controller Prenderg-ast, and Leßoy
T. Harkness, of counsel for the Public
Service Commission and a number of en-
■ •=>-*■? from the Board of Estimate and
from the commission went over the condi
tions with the Acting Mayor. Mr. Mitchel
said he had not been advised by the Cor
poration Counsel of any differences of
opinion with regard to the contract for
private construction and operation.
He did not believe, he said, that there
would arise any necessity for conference on
that form of contract. He added that he
was still in favor of construction by the
city, and if ■ contract for private con
struction and operation were recommended
there mi?ht be ■ lively discussion on the
question.
The Public Service Commission has suc
ceeded in getting- the transit committee of
the Board of Estimate to permit "open
cuts" in the subway construction on Man
hattan Island. Tracks will be under cover
south of ISOth street, except at places
shown in the detailed plans, and the en
gineers of the commission will have dis
cretion in allowing open cut work to be
carried on during construction where it
does not interfere with the street traffic.

application of the circular. with its de
mands for detailed descriptions, would en
tail such losses and difficulties as practical
ly to bar all export trade to the United

Trade to take action.

NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUVE. FRIDAY. AUGUST 26. 1010.
ARMY AND M NOTES
Officers Favor Motor Cars for
Military Transportation. \
[FVora The Tribune Bureau.]
Washington, August 25.
ARMY MULE THREATENED.— Another
ancient institution is threatened by modern
science. The army mule, from time imme
morial regarded as a military necessity,
may have to take a subordinate place in
future warfare between the nations, for
the motor car is now- essential to the wel
fare of men in battle.
Report? received at the War Department
from officers who have served at the joint
army and militia manoeuvres this slimmer
are more emphatic than ever concerning
the value of the motcr car in military
transportation. Many examples are given
of the time saved in the delivery of sup
plies from the base to distant points, es
pecially when the troops are away from
the garrison ranges, and the number of
ovens has been greatly increased by mount
ing- the outfit on a motor car.
One officer. Lieutenant Colonel I. W. L.itt.
the chief quartermaster .it Governor's
Island, has recommended that the subject
be referred to a special board of officers
with a. view to ascertaining what steps
shall be taken to adopt the motor car in
the army for field use. Some officers, how
ever, have reported that the type of ve
hicle is not to be depended upon, partly
because of the repairs which are necessary
and partly because of the condition of the
roads in some sections of the country. On
the other hand, it is pointed out that with
the adoption generally of motor cars there
could easily be provided means of repair in
the field, and in the end there would be no
great interruption in the system of trans
portation, since the breakdowns must be
only incidental. It is also pointed out that
the motor car could go wherever the pres
en' army wagon can be taken.
Of course, there will continue to be mili
tary operations where the supplies will
have to be carried on the backs of ani
mals, but they will be in locations where no
type of wagon could penetrate. Major Gen
eral Leonard "Wood, chief of staff of the
army, is an enthusiastic advecate of the
motor vehicle. He will probably have some
Interesting remarks to make on this sub
ject in his first annual report a3 senior
officer of the General Staff.
