Wholesale Druggists Devise Means to Keep
Up Prices on Patent Medicines.

Wholesale Druggists Devise Means to Keep
Up Prices on Patent Medicines.
The National Wholesale Druggists
Association at it's meeting at Louisville,
KY, adopted a resolution calling upon
Congress to pass a law ito protect the
public from INSCRIPTIONS limitations and
cOunterfeits of foods and medical prep
arations sold under trade mark. :"
The resolution is preceded by the
statement under decision by Justice
Brewer of the United States Supreme
Court, that the present law to punish
counterfeits of trade marks is inoper-
alive and valueless.
The substitute evil" was further dis
cussed during the day, and resolutions
adopted to provide against it. The reso-
lutions recommend that proprietary
medicines be sold under eight condi-
tions. These are in subSt ance that own
ers of proprietary medicines sell only to
druggists, wholesale dealers in proprie-
tary medicines, and established agen-
cieS; wholesale dealers and agencies not
to supply dealers on the cut off list eX-
cept at full retail prices; retail dealers
agree to sell all contract or rebate
articles and further agree not to
substitute another article for any
article requested if such article is on
the contract or rebate plan, nor deliver
such goods to any dealer on the cutoff
list excepting at full retail prices.
Names Of all druggists who do not COM
ply with these conditions will be paced
on the cutoff list. No manufacturer or
wholesale druggist shall supply cutoff
dealers except at full retail prices. All
manufacturers and dea' ers shall refuse
to sell to commission n erchants, brokers,
or other agents Oh the contract plan ex-
cept for export Manufacturers and
wholesalers agree not to sell, except at
full prices, to any retailer who will not
agree to sell at full retail prices. All
dealers who violate the agreement will
be d aced on the cutoff list.

The Conemaugh Disaster.

Flour shippers throughout the West
were greatly worried when they learned
that the steamer Conemaugh had gone
to the bottom of Detroit River, the re-
suit of collision with the steamer New
York, of the Union Line
j. e. Evans, agent of the Anchor
Line, stated that the Conemaugh had
on board about 1000 tons of flour from
Chicago, 900 tons from Milwaukee, and
about 400 tons of general freight. Turn
ing to the steamers manifest, it seemed
as if about every shipper was repre-
sented on the fourteen pages of finely
written copy paper. Among the Chi
cago firms having -four on the sunken
boat, the Star and Crescent Mills
were the most important They
had 1850 sacks and twenty-five
barrels. The balance of the cargo
was shipped from the following points:
Alton, 800 barrels; La Crosse, $50 bar
rels; Hannibal, $50 sacks; st. Louis, ss5
sacks, $50 barrels; Winona, 200 sacks;
Peoria, 1,47O sacks; Burlington, 455
sacks; Minneapolis, 1925 sacks; Quincy,
4, 400 sacks All the -four in sacks was
for export, the sacks weighing 14O and
$50 pounds. In addition to this there
were 500 pigs of lead, 400 sacks of bran,
622 sacks of oilcake. Milwaukee's part
of the cargo was even more varied than
that shipped from Chicago. Mr.. Evans
estimated the value of the cargo at
close to 500, O00 1t is believed to be
fully covered by insurance, but it is pos
sible that some among so many shippers
might have overlooked the item of in
surfing their flour. This is Captain
Vaughn's first season as master of the
New York He is considered a careful
and skillful navigator

One of the most important questions

whether the town will vote labor tax to
be worked under the supervision OF High-
way Surveyors or will continue the pres
ent system of direct supervision by the
selectmen. II the former method should
be adopted it would be necessary for the
road machine to be used in turn by the
several highway districts, course which
many believe would be decidedly imprac-
ticable.
