LOOK ON THIS.

The ancient maxim that every ques-
ton has two sides is, in the words of
St. Paul, worthy of all acceptation.
Take the Royal Baking Powder Com
pany for example: It's statements to
the public are made in a bald, one
sided way. The Company is either
guilty Of duplicity in its methods or it
takes the public to be ignorant.
It forgets, or it doesn't care, that
there is an opposite to the claims it sets
up.
It has been caught in it's acts, and un-
masked so often that one would SUD-
pose it would try some new tactics. On
the contrary, it continues the dark
lantern policy.
The Ohio Dairy and Food Commits
sioner corrected the Royal for misusing
his annual report. This was done in
the newspapers.
The same Company was taken to
task by the New York State Board of
- c. :A~ .>.>aoo -fT>< to make il an.
near that the Enard nad endorsed the
Royal Baking Powder.
The same Company quoted authori-
ties, in it's behalf, and called them Gov
eminent Chemists There is no such
Office known to any bureau in Wash
ington, or its departments throughout
the country, as Government Chemist.
Here is another blunder of which the
Royal is guilty, and according to Tai
leyrand, blunder is as bad as a crime.
In one of its claims on the public the
Royal uses the following words:
(COPY OF A ROYAL AID.
CANNOT BE EXCELLED.
purer stronger baking powder than the Royal
tits impossible to make. It is absolutely pure and
healtbfu and composed of the best ingredients and
Of the highest strength and character
To this statement the Royal adds, as
authority, these names:
DIR. DAVIDSON,
DR.. FISKE,
DR. McQUEsTEN,
DIR. LIE ToURNEUX,
San Francisco Board of Health.
That is one side of the case. It is the
Royal Baking Powder Company s side.
The other side Of the case appears OPP
posite. It is complete negative. It
shows again the deception practiced
by the Royal Baking Powder Company.
Are such methods employed BY con-
Germs that are honest7
The above is respectfully &.
thinking public.

TOO LATE TO CHASE
The Charleston Has Not Sailed
 After the Etata.
NO ORDERS FROM WASHINGTON.
The Chilian Vessel Did Not Have a
 Fighting Crew.

Customs OmcIR9 Say the Published Stories
 About Her Having Arms Are Ridiculous
 Secretary Tracy Win Not Discuss the
 NIatter-The Policy of the Government
 Stil an Official Secret.
 SAN FRANCISCO, May 9.-At 8 o'clock this morning the steamer Charleston, which had been ordered to proceed to sea ostensibly to try her new guns, but really to arrest the flight of the Chilian steamer Etata, had not sailed. All her men are aboard, and the commander is awaiting orders from Washington. The general opinion is that the Charleston could not catch the Etata.
 The news sent out about the manner of the Etata leaving San Diego was more sensational than the facts warranted. with which to make herself formidable, nor were there any men concealed about for use in an emergency.
 She had 65 men when she came into port, but about a dozen of them deserted, so she left with about 60 men. The pilot who took her out was not impressed, but went aboard voluntarily by prearrange- ment. She was in communication with the Robert and Minnie while in port but the U nlteu states MdrSndl ulu not Seen to have known it.
 The marshal said that his orders to de- tain the Etata were emphatic, bvt she was allowed to lie in the stream two days with steam up, and, when ready, had nothing to do but weigh anchor and go.
 The customs officers made the usual search of the EtatR when they boarded her, and say that the statements about her having arms and men concealed are ri- diculous. The Etata left here headed toward the San Clemente Islands, where she will probably meet the schooner Rob ert sud Minnie with the arms and ammu- nition.

 PROVIDENCE. R. l., May 9.-The mystery surrounding the sending of & bottle of poisoned liquor to Mrs. J. B. Barnaby, at Denver, which caused her death, will in a few days be cleared up.
 Lase night Dr. T. Thatcher Graves and his wife left for Denver, and this morning the Pinkerton detecti yes and the Conrad family followed, so that the V will be but a few hours later than the Graves party in reaching Denver Miss Hanley, the maid Dr. Graves secured for Mrs. Barnaby last summer, is not to ac- company the party, as the Pinkerton men have not regarded her as of any import ance as a witness.
 lead to solution of the mystery, has just been made. A bottle, which was identical with the one which contained the poison sent to Mrs. Barnaby, was found in @ drug store. It contained some medicine put up by Dr. Graves.
 That Dr. Graves should start for Den yer to appear before the grand jury caused considerable surprise, but that he should do this of his own volition was even more surprising. While he goes voluntarily, he did not decide to do so until after a great deal of pressure had been brought to bear to convince him that it was the best thing he could do, considering what had been said and the information ob- tained by the detectives, and he was urged to make some explanation of the forwarding of the bottle. The public must not be surprised if the statement is soon forthcoming that the bottle, when mailed, contained only whiskey, but that it was tempered with after its arrival in Denver.
 Miss Hanley, on account of the un- pleasant notoriety attached to her name, has been compelled to leave her boarding place at the request of the landlady.

Ex-sENAToR MILLER's RETURN
He Says tho Nicaragua Canal Will be Com.
 pleted in Six Years.

NEW YORK, May 9-Ex-Senator Warner Miller arrived in this city last night and spoke quite freely of his trip to the Isth- mus in the interest of the Nicaragua canal. Mir. Miller said after their rescue from the wreck they were landed in Greytown, where the mayor gave the party a banquet.
 From Greytown they made a trip over the route of the canal and were much pleased with the work done and the pros poets. Only go miles would have to ex- cavated. The rest of the canal will be through the course of the San Juan river and Lake Nicaragua. The canal will be completed in six years.
 In conversation with Secretary Tracy at Washington on Thursday, the Secre- tary told Mir. Miller that the canal was now a necessity, or else the United States would have to maintain two navies, one in each ocean.

STILL ANOTHER CRASH.
The Spring Garden Bank of Philadelphia
 Closes It's Doors.

Closes Its Doors
 PHILADELPHIA, May 9.-There is con- siderable uneasiness among bank de- positors over the closing of the Spring Garden Bank, following so closely after other bank failures here.
 The doors of the Spring Garden Bank were closed at 11:30 o'clock. At that time Bank Examiner Drew came to the door and posted this notice:
 ''This bank is closed by order of the Comptroller of the Treasury until further notice"
 The last check was paid at 11:30. In a few minutes Q crowd had collected and the street was impossible.
 In answer to a request sent in to Presi- dent Kennedy for some information as to the reasons for the banks closing he made the following statement:
 ''We have decided to place the bank in the hands of Mr. Drew, the Nation al Bank Examiner. This step has been forced upon us principally by the large withdrawal of deposits during the fnan- cial stringency which commenced last September, and the continued dullness of business since. To meet these demands on our reserves, it was found impossible to realize rapidly on our assets. We have been below in our reserve for some weeks past, and can see no immediate prospect of increasing it. We still owe balance to the Clearing House Committee Tor out standing loan certificates, payment of which is being pressed These facts, coupled with the disturbances of the past week have caused increasing uneasi- ness on the part of some of our depos- itors, together with the weakening of our credit with the other banks. We hope the suspension will be only temporary"
 The Penn Trust Company has made an assignment for the benefit of creditors. The Trust Company is now State in- stitution, separate from the Penn Bank, but it was originally an outgrowth of the bank in this, that the stockholders of the bank were also largely stockholders of the Trust Company.
 There were rumors flying around that the Girard National Bank was in trouble, but Vice-President Caldwell publicly states that the bank was never in better condition than it is today and that they are able to pay every dollar they owe.
 The crash was a great surprise to the general public, as at the last sale of it's stock the price obtained was $121.50. The capital stock of the institution was quoted at $750, ,000 and there was a sup posed surplus of $130,000. A dividend of 1-2 per cent. was paid upon the capital stock at the last annual meeting.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-The policy of the government with respect to the Chilian steamer Etata is still an official secret Secretary Tracy will not discuss the mat ter.
