DRIVEN OUT OF BUSINESS.
Consternation Among Manufacturers of
 Oleomargarine.

Consternation Among Manufacturers oi
 Oleomargarine.
 Trenton. N. J., Dec. 23.-The decision recently rendered by the United States supreme court affirming the constitu. tionality of the Massachusetts law re- garding the sale of oleomargarine, in which 1t Is held that substitutes de- signed to look like butter are deceptive and fraudulent, and the states may exclude them without encroaching on the rights of congress to regulate inter- state commerce." has thrown consterna- tion into the ranks of dealers in oleo- margarine in the states which by statute prohibit the manufacture and sale of this counterfeit product.
 They are now practically barred from continuing a business which has of late years grown to large proportions and in which large sums are invested. By the decision alluded to the large dealers in this article are driven out of business in the prohibitory states and owing to the fact that the New Jersey law under certain conditions does not prohibit the manufacture and sale of oleomargarine they have selected this state as the basis of operations and have recently been dumping large quantities of the stuff in Jersey City and other localities. In so doing, however, they have not been particular enough to observe in all respects the law of the state re- garding the branding of packages, and this and other violations of the law are now receiving the attention of the state dairy commissioners. .n
 Commissioner McGuire proposes that the laws shall be strictly enforced and has given special instructions to his deputies, with the result that several violations have already been detected and complaint made. The most import ant complaint is the one against Amon & Person of Jersey City, who are the eastern selling agents of most of the last western makers, and handle large quantities of oleomArgarine.

 Prince von Hohen'olle.
 Berlin, Dec. 23.-Since entering Stras- bourg as governor Prince von Hohenlo- he Langenburg has been in a maze of dinners, balls and receptions. Some of his receptions have been attended by old Alsatian families who before had held aloof from the German officials.

Now, whenever an old French family offers property in Alsace or Lorraine for sale wealthy German turns up with the purchase money. Within a few years score of fine estates in the neighbor- hood of Urville and Metz have been sold to Germans by irreconcialiable protest CTS who wished to move to France.
