IT WAS NO GOOD.
Fall River Men Swear Gold Cure Is Z De-
!usion and a Snare. .ot

Four solemn looking men stood up In
court yesterday, at Boston. and on their
solemn word averred that bi-chlorids ot
gold as destroyer of that thir,tful feel
ing was no good.
Each claimed that he knew what he
was talking about, as they had all tried
the scheme and found II was useless.
In fact, three of them sorrowfully said
that the cure was worse than useless, for
II seemed to them TO have made their
thirst thirstier. "That's true, all right
enough. Twice rs much water drank to-
day, - said q court officer.
II was bi-chloride gold session In the
jury waived session of the Superior Court.
Judge, court officers and spectators had
lots of fun over funny case.
There 10 nothing startling in the title
OF the case, &. Z. Anderson VS.. e.. w,
Cate. IL is an action OF contract to re-
cover $1,000. 1t wasn't until the evidence
was put in that the fun began to show.
q. p. Anderson, the plaintiff, 10 q
member OF the concern known as the
American Bi-chloride OF Gold Company.
Mr.. Gate 10 a well known business man OF
Fall River.
In tho early part OF the year 1894 an
agent OF the American Company up.
preached Cate and unfoldeo to him the
wonderful advantages OF the gold cure
and the handsome return from the proper
disposal OF the cure. He described the
good qualities OF his goods with such
effect that he closed a contract with Cate.
Under the terms of this contract Cate.
was to take the sole agency of the goods
OF the American Company for Bristol and
Barnstable counties.
He was TO sell the goods and see that
the treatment was properly handled, and
IL there were satisfactory results or cures
in the majority of cases, Cate would pay
5000 to the American Company. ~
This 5000 has not yet been paid to
the Bi-chloride company, and that In
why they have brought suit asking for
$1,000 Cate was supposed to receive $50
head from all persons treated.
The company claim that q cure was
effected and Cate claims the bi-chloride
was no good and presented his witnesses
had been tried. John Wallace was the
first witness who testified against the viz
tues of the gold cure for any thirst de
strcying qpalities. He said that n didn't
do him any good and that IL Was going
to church which cured him. lie said he
drank occasionally now Whenever n was
q dry day.
The other. witnesses were WRIGHT
Waikcr, Edward 1oostny and William
Nacou. Ons man testified that he began
to drink directly after he had taken the
cure, and n DIDN'T help him, snl ne
couldn't leave of.
Tho peculisr part OF tho affair IL that
affidsvits were presentsd which had been
signed ny the gold takers In which they
set forth the wonoerfui benefits Of the
cure. These were made out, however,
directly after the cure.
