VINEGAR MEN MEET.
Representatives of state Firms I'm
Conference with Dairy officials.

A conference between the representative
vinegar manufacturers of the state and the
officials OF the state dairy and food depart
ment was held yesterday afternoon at the
state capitol.
The meeting was called to secure a bet
ter understanding Of the pure food laws
having TO do with the sale and manufacture
of vinegars between the manufacturers and
the state department. The following firms
were represented: New Ulm Pickle works
New Ulm, Northwestern Vinegar works ST.
Paul: f. II. Sphinx d Co.. St. Paul. and the
NJ. a. Gedney Picking company, st. Paul.
A general discussion OF the operation of the
law relating to vinegar participated in,
and those present urged the department TO
take some measures 70 stop the local manu-
facture OF Illicit vinegar, which the depart
ment agreed to do as far as was within is
power between now and the first OF the
year. Assistant Commissioner Lawrence
stated that he did not know what the policy
OF the next administration would be, but
they would endeayor to remedy the evil. The
department asked Hve questions Of the manu-
facturers re.atng to the operation OF the
law and the condition Of the vinegar busii-
ness since the pure food law went into effect
The manufacturers. complained that con-
siderable vinegar was being sold by small
firms which was not OF the standard required
Of the larger firms. For instance, vinegar
made from watermelon juice and glucose had
been sold in this market for pure cider
Mr.. Gedney stated that his firm manu-
factured during the past year IS 600 barrels
OF vinegar and the other firms reported an
output OF between 500 and 1000 barrels
during the year.

there could not be the slightest doubt
OF his guilt. He did not talk too much
about the specific Indictment.

ested spectator at the trial, stepped up
and shocked hands with Southall who
smiled like a man who was satisfied
with the result OF a good thing
CULPABILTTY OF EAIMONS.
Mr.. Nelson's summing up was along
the line of the culpability OF Emmons.
He said:
Il am not going to talk to you about
the general merits OF this time check
business. Let us admit, if you Nike,
that Soutnall was engaged in a gi-
gantic swindle, but let US also under
stand that you are TO try him on the
charge of having obtained $3.50 from
ID. M. EmmonS by false representa-
tions. Now. l leave 1t to you as fair
minded men If there can be any doubt
Of what took place between the de-
fendant and Elnmons. Emmons bought
$S5, 900 worth of the time checks from
Bedell, who was handling them for
SouthaU From Southall himself he
bought even more. and his dealings
with the man went over a period of
year and seven months. Now, 1t has
been said by the county attorney that
Emmons is so shattered by his losses
that he is deranged in some measure.
l don't know what his condition is now,
but he certainly was not an idiot when
ne was dealing with Southall."
The attorney made only the slightest
reference to the letters with the con-
fessions of guilt and repeated the
statement made by witness for the
prosecution that Southall had told Mr..
How that he was solely responsible for
the issue OF the checks and would take
all the responsibility. He dwelt at
some length on the fact that the mat
ter had been condoned by the govern
ment officials, and then left the case in
the hands Of the jury.
JUDGE BRILL'S CHARGE.

jurors that they need not insist on hav-
