Rebels Make a Grand Rush.
The Filipino General Mascardo's
army. inspired by wine taken from the
store houses of Bacolor and by the
generals oratory, on Monday evening
attacked San Fernando. There was
tremendous yelling and a great ex-
pendure of cartridges by the rebels
but very little result. General Mascardo
holds the outskirts of BacoIor west of
the railroad. In front of his positions
are the Kansas and Montana regiments,
which occupy trenches that the Fill
pinos built in anticipation of an attack
from the direction of the sea. During
the afternoon of Monday General Mas
cardo. with a large retinue of officers,
rode along the lines, frequently stop
ping to harangue his warriors. At dusk
a detachment of rebels rushed towards
the outposts of the Montana regiment
but was met by a hot fire from the
Montana regiment The insurgents
from trenches nearly three miles long
responded
Kept 1t Up for Hour.
After an hours firing, during which
one private soldier of the Montana regi-
ment was wounded, the insurgents sub
sided, although they kept up a scatter
ing fire throughout the night. Prison
erS who were brought into the Ameri-
can lines said that General Mascardo
distributed barrels of wine among his
soldiers. telling them that he expected
to capture the city of San Fernando.
The trenches undoubtedly saved the
Americans from heavy loss, the bullets
falling thick about them during the
engagement. General Luna is massing

CHAMPION OF "OLEO"
Says the Chicago Millionaire
Fairly Dotes on Butter
That Is Counterfeit.
He BUYS IT ON THE DEAD QUIET"
So the Dealer Tells the Senate Pure Food
Committee-ReaI Butter CoIored to Imi-
tate the Bogus-Borax Also Used in the
Genuine-Some Tricks OF the Trade in
PickIes-Preservatives To Be Analysed
in Secret.


Chicago. May 11.-Fear of social deg
radiation keeps many of the millionaires
of Chicago from acknowledging the fact
that they use oleomargariue in lieu of
pure butter, according to William
BroadweIl, a witness before the pure
food investigation committee yester-
day. 1T is the strangest kind of game,
your honor" witness said to Senator
Mason, the deception going on simply
because a man is too proud to let his
friends know he is using anything that
is not the real article. 1t would surprise
you if you could learn of the million
aires that come into my store and carry
home little packages of oleomargarine,
and palm il off on their swell friends as
real butter" Broadwell was called be-
fore the committee to explain why the
internal revenue laws regulating the
stamping of packages of oleomargarine
was not enforced.
Not Labeled Oleomargarine.
Charles Y. Knight, editor of the Chi
cago Dairy Produce Exchange, brought
in an armful of samples of butterine
which he said he had purchased from
various Chicago dealers. None of these
packages bore the stamp ''OIeomargar-
it neatly folded out of sight, and others
were surrounded by paper that was alb
solutely blank. All the dealers called
upon denied that this failure to comply
with the law was Intentional. They ex-
planned it as an accident due to the
oversight of the clerk. and William
Broadwell intimated that his packages
had been tampered with after they had
been purchased.
Lays 1t to CoIored Butter.
Broadwell defended oleomargarine
with a will and said that if butter deal
ers wouldn't color their butter there
would be no difficulty in telling it from
butterine.' ''Butterine," he explained,
lis always colored a rich golden. Now,
every one knows that in the winter
months, when the cattle can't get grass,
butter is nearly pure white. But these
fellows color it and make it resemble
butterine." 1t would drive "oleo' out
of the market to color it pink, because
people who bought "oleo" did not want
II known as such. They might be
thought cheap skates he said. That
was how IL was with the nliIlionaires.
