IN THE E OF A

IN the course OF q conversation with
an Intellisencer reporter at the Federal
building yesterday afternoon, Governor
Atkinson stated that there Is no doubt
Of the method that will be pursued by
the President, IL war is declared. He
will at once call on the several states
for their quota OF troops. and the first
furnished will be the organized militia.
Contrary to an impression that has
gained some circulation and credence.
said the governor, the National guards
men OF the states will not be called up
on to stand the regular United States
army examination as to physique. The
only formality that will be entered into
BY the guardsmen will be the taking OF
the oath OF allegiance to the national.
government. The two West Virginia
regiments OF the National Guard will be
sworn into the Federal service as or
gnnizations. and will not be reorganiz-
ed. The only change will be to bring up
the numerical force Of each regiment 10
ten companies OF one hundred men
each, making the total strength OF the
West Virginia brigade 1000 men. If
the Presidents call Is for a force that
makes West Virginia's quota more
than 1000 men. one or more additional
regiments will be recruited by the state
authorities. This authoritative state
ment from the states chief executive
ought to settle all doubt hat has exist
ed regarding tho manner OF procedure
in raising troops for the national gov
eminent In the event of war.

THE "OLEO" CASE

Or Hubbard & PAUL. Against tho Govern.
ment now on Trial In the United States
court-The Decision will be an Import.
ant one-Torniinat.CoGhr Case Ends.
An interesting and important case Is
now or trial in the United States district
court, that Of Hubbard C PAUL against
the government. contesing the ruling OF
the internal revenue bureau, and for the
recovery Of assessments OF tax made by
the revenue officials which the Arm
claims to have been made e~rroneousiy.
The matter was first appealed to Com
missioner Forman, OF the internal reve-
nue. bureau, and the assessment made
by the revenue agents was confirmed.
In addition to Hubbard G PAUL. three
other wholesale firms and thirteen re-
tail firms, all Of Wheeling. are interested
IN this case, which will form q precedent
for similar cases hereafter.
The wholesalers claim that they
bought what they thought was cream-
cry butter from StolZe Brothers, the
commission men, paid creamery butter
prices and sold4h stuff for creamery
butter. Notwithstanding this claim the
revenue officials collected tax from Hub
bard & PAUL, Speidel Grocery Com
pany. Swift 6 Company and Baer's
Sons Grocer Company. and from the re-
tail firms, from $500 to 500 for the
wholesalers and SEQ from the retailers.
AS stated. the Hubbard & Paul case Is
the first OF seventeen to be brought to
trial, and for that reason there is con-
siderable interest in the outcome OF the
trial.
W. S. Gano, OF Newport. Ohio. u .etail-
er who sold some OF the Hubbard &
PAUL buctcr-if 1t was butter-and he
testified that he thought the stuff was
butter: that he found butter milk sub
stance in the cask, which strengthened
his belief.
Two men living at Newport, who
bought some of the stun from Gano,
testified. They, too, encountered q but
ter milk substances in the butter, and
.he wife Of one worked the butter over.
which to his mind proved that the stun
was butter.

the firms and persons from whom he

bard & PAUL. purchase was butter. Their
stock Of butterine was kept IN the cooler
at the store, while their butter was kept
at the Wheeling Ice & Storage house,
across the creek, and from that place
came the butter sold to Hubbard 6
PAUL.
The Gaze was continued until to-day.
Governor Atkinson, j. 3. Sonmtrville
and c. p. Flick are counsel for the
plaintiffs, while District Attorney
Gaines cares for the governments inter-
est. During the urse OF the trial yes
terday afternoon, Judge Jackson twitted
the governor regarding his former con-
nection with the revenue bureau, and Sc
cured from him an admission that he
was as active" as the revenue officers
have been in the cas at trial.

NOT ALL PATRIOTS.

United States Marshal John x.
Thompson tells q good story anent the
present war excitement. The marshal
lives In Winfield, tho county seat OF
Putnam county. in the southern part of
the state. On a recent visit to his home
he was impressed with the "jungo" at
titude Of the young men Of the town.
nearly every one OF whom was thirsty
for Spanish gore. and asserted the in
tent!on OF enlisting at the first oppor-
tunIty. Captain Thompson was a
brave Confederate soldier during the
late war. and hio pacific attitude was
considered quite remarkable by the
Youug men OF Winfield.
But they changed their tune two days
later.
Having made the arrangement with
friend In Winfield, the marshal HE'D
himself to Huntington on government
business, and while In the Second City
wrote q letter 70 his Winfield friend,
telling him that he had just received an
appointment from Governor Atkinson
to the command OF a regiment he vas
authorized to raise. The Winfield
friend was delegated to raise q company
In that town, and forthwith proceeded
to call upon the '~nrc-eatcrs' of q day
or two previous. Now comes the truly
remarkable phase OF the story. Out OF
thirty or forty men who were so war
like 4 few hours before, only two were
willing 10 enlist-and ONE OF THESE!
WAS A UNION PENSIONER WHOSE
DISABILITIES MADE HIM NELL
CHILE TO SERVE. War talk sudden

THERE is No QUESTION OF THE

WINE IN SOUTH AMERICA.

n SERIES of reports the wine trade of South / \ American countries just received by the State Department and published in Consular Reports tor April contain great deal of information of in terest to Caiornians generally which may prove of value to our wine-makers by revealing to them the conditions under which they may find large market for their produce.
 The reports do not all South American countries but as those published were made in com pllance with instructions from the department 1t is probable that future reports will be made from coun- tries and ports now omitted. Enough is given how ever to show that large amount of wine is used among the people of South America, and that the United States has virtually none of the trade
 Consul General Townes reports from Rio Janero that the of table wines Is very general throughout Brazil among the rich and the poor its use being re- garded essential to health in that climate He gives statistics showing large importations from Europe but from this country. The Consul at Para re- ports that the imported in that portion of Brazil IS mainly from Portugal, fact which he attributes to the natural preference of the Portuguese import CTS who control the wine trade there for the wines of their country.
 Consul Dobbs reports from Valparaiso that the United States has almost trade with Chile in wine. The largest importations from any one coun- try are from Great Britain. In 1895 there were re- ceived at Valparaiso from Great Britain red wine to the value of $3543e in bottles and $22So in barrels and white wine the value of SI o26 in bottles and $24o54 in barrels Importations from France and Germany followed closely after Great Britain in value while the United States appears with the record of having furnished Valparaiso that year with the sum total of $50 worth of red wine in bottles and none in barrels.
 The record runs very much the same at all the ports from which reports have been received, and these include, in addition to those named. Bahia, Pernambuco. Iquique, Antofagasta and Paysandu. The report from 1quique says Practically there is no importation of United States wine Small ven lures in this line made n I8oI during the revo-
