Cen. Grants Testimony,

taken last week, in the case now on trial
before Judge Benedict in the L. 5. Cir
cult Court in New York, against Mr.. Fish
president of the Marine Bank, for malfea-
sance in connection with the failure of
Grant g. Ward, contained some interest
ing points. Gen. Grant, it will be re-
membered has been much blamed, for
permitting Ferdinand Ward to give
the impression to his dupes that his firm
was making immense sums in govern
ment contracts Many people suppose
that II government contract always means
mint of money for the contractor but
we remember saying, in this paper, that
Gen. Grant knew better than that and
that he could not avoid deserved censure
if Ward had been making such assertions
with his (Grant's) knowledge and consent.
1t appears from Gen. Grants testimony,
that he had heard of some such talk on
Wards part but supposed that he had
put his foot on it, He testified
| told Mr.. Ward when it was mentioned
that there never must be any government
contracts. There is nothing wrong in be
ing engaged in government contracts
more than in anything else, unless made
wrong bv the acts of the individual, but
had been President of the United States
and did not think it was suitable for me
to have my name connected with govern
ment contracts, and | knew that there
was no large profit in them except by
/ dishonest measures. There are men who
/ get government contracts year in and year
| out and whether they manage theiraifairs
| dishonesty TO make profit or not, they
are sometimes supposed to, and did not
think it was any place for me.
| This is doubtless the simple and exact
truth and the only fault now remaining
on the Generals part was want of caution
| in entrusting his name and credit and
private fortune to Il scoundrel. Gen.
Grant further testified that he supposed
the day before the failure sof Grant x
Ward that he was himself worth about
million dollars. He added
Everything had was lost i'll the failure
of that firm Ward came up here on Sun
day night before the failure, and said that
| if he could raise S150OOO more it would
carry the Marine bank through ; that he
| had $500 900 in the Marine Bank, besides
81 300, 900 of securities in our vaults; that
the Marine bank was all sound and
solid if it had time to draw in little of Its
time loans. He asked me if knew Will
| liam II. Vanderbilt well enough to ask
him for Sl5O,ON, and |, after some little
hesitation, said did, and Mr.. Vanderbilt
loaned it to me without hesitation. He
said at the time he gave it to me that he
was lending this to me, and that he had nc
recollection of ever having done such Il
thing before but that he would do it fol
me. Well, that has taken all the remain
ing property had.

What Baking Powder
Shall We Buy?

The presence Of lime in the cheap, low grade baking
powders is longer questioned Analysts have found it
in large quantities in all the baking powders sold in this
market, except the Royal"
Some of the baking powders prominently certified
the public pure have been found by Profs Chandler,
Habirshaw, and other CHEMISTS contain nearly u per
of this deeerious substance This for their
lack Of eveng power and for the salt bitter and soapy
frequently found in biscuits cake where they
used.
But aside from the great nferority otherwise of baking
powders largely adulteated, it has been found that lime
taken into the system in such quantities this is nur
ous 1t cannot be decomposed by heat and is not dis
solved in mixing or baking The whole Of this
amount therefore, found in these baking powders passes
with the food into the stomach Its physiological effects
upon the system Indigestion dyspepsia evils
Lime is caustc powerful that is used by
hair from hides of animals and in dssectingrooms
to the flesh from the bones of dead subjects The pres
ehce Of this aduerat in these powders results from the
of impure cheap of tartar.

Royal Baking Powder Absolutely Pure.

The Royal Baking Powder is made from Cream of
Tartar specially refined and prepared for its by patent
processes by which the Tartrate of Lime is totally em
mated.
This highly important result has been attained only
with great care, labor and expense In money alone
quarter of million dollars has been invested in patents
machinery, and appliances by which the crude Cream of
Tartar being procured directly from the wine districts of
Europe and subjected in this country to these exclusive
processes is rendered entirely free, not only from the OBJ
ieconabe Tarrate of Lime, but from other foreign sub
stances.
This adds greatly the cost of manufacturing Royal
Baking Powder; but, as all its other ingredients
ected and prepared with the precise care and regard
less of labor expense, article is produced that is
entirely free from any extaneous substance and chemically
pure in all respects.

Chemist of the Department of Agriculture United States
