ATHENS, Aug. 3G>-Greece has again been

Several towns in Italy were also visited
by the earthquake, but not to any serious
extent, Naples, Brindisi, Foggias, Caserta,
and Taranto being of the number.

REVENUE COLLECTORS INSTRUCTED
AS TO oLEOMARGARINE.

A General Inspection To Be Carried on
by Collectors and Special Deputies
The Pan-EIectric suit-GuatemaIa to
Increase Duties-Gen. NewtOn's Retire
ment-The New Public Printer.

scribe that all the oleomargarine and other

deputies appointed for the purpose in some
cities, and all the oleomargarine found un-
marked will be seized and destroyed. The
enforcement of all the provisions as to the
tax, stamps, labels, brands, manufacture,
sale, expectation, etc, will then commence
in accordance with the terms of the law.
The manufacturer is required to display
q sign on his factory giving his full name
and business and the number of his fac
tory, which shall be designated by the col
lector. Wholesale dealers will keep book
and make monthly returns, showing the
oleomargarine received by them and from
whom received, and to whom sold or de-
livered. Minute directions are given for

bering each original package in conformity
with law, and the use of tin in packing by
manufacturers is forbidden except upon

scribed The special tax stamp is the only

tion to go into court to prove that an ar
ticie seized by them is oleomargarine.

THE PAN-ELECTRlC SUIT.
j. Harris Rogers Files His Reply to Gar
lands Cross Bill.

lands Cross Bill.
WASHINGTON CITY, Aug 30.-J. Harris
Rogers, of the Pan Electric company, has
fled his reply to Attorney General o. ar
lands cross bill in the suit in which Rogers
claims damages in connection with the busi.
ness of the company. Rogers denies all of
Garlands allegations very emphatically,
and says he not only furnished his own shar-
of the expenses, but advanced the share of the
defendants when they were out of cash. He
admits that he was unreliable" as is
charged in Garland's cross bill, provided it
is meant that he could not be used to man
ipulate government departments in the in
terests of those who desired to run them for
their own private interest, but as to his re-
liability as an honest man he pre-
sents letters from Garland and Har-
rIs highly indorsing him. Regarding
the propriety of winding up the company
he says that such a dissolution would be
disastrous to all parties concerned, except
the defendants, whose stock is really the
property Of the respondents, as shown in
the bill-that it would entail irremediable
losses on the respondent, on hundreds of
innocent stockholders in the parent come
pany, and also in the subordinate compan.
les whose stock has been sold, in many
cases, to widows and orphans, and their
money transferred to the pockets of de-
fendant Garland.
He quotes Garland's bill in answer to
Garland's statement that he wanted to be
"rid" of him Rogers, in which the attor-
ney general says Rogers has sold nearly,
if not all, OF his interest in the company,
and concludes his answer by declaring that
Garland's desire for dissolution of the
company is "sham conceived in malice
and born in falsehood," and that Garland's
allegations are monstrous, untrue, reckless,
impertinent and scandalous
