THE ALUM BAKING POWDERS
Names of Some of the Principal
brands Sold in This vicinity.

Names of Some of the Principal
brands Sold in This vicinity.
The recent discussion in the papers
of the effect upon the human system OF
food made with alum baking powders
and the opinions that have been pub.
lished from noted scientists to the ef.
feet that such powders render the food
unwholesome, have caused numerous
inquiries for the names Of the various
alum powders.
The following list of baking powders
containing alum is made up from the
reports of State Chemist Nicholson of
Nebraska, the city chemist of st. Louis,
the food commission Of Minnesota, or
other reliable authority:
baking Powders Containing Alum,
X. C.................. Contains Alum
Jaques Mfg. Co., Chicago.
CALUMET T............ Contains Alum

PORTLAND ......... Contains Alum
Beno & Balls. Portland.
In addition to these, 1t Is learr ed
that many grocers are selling what
they call their own private or special
brands. These powders are put up for
the grocer and his name put upon the
labels by manufacturers Of alum pow
ders in st. Louis. Chicago. Kansas City.
Tacoma, San Francisco and elsewhere.
The manufacturers, 1t is said, find their
efforts to market their goods in this
way greatly aided by the ambition Of
the grocer to sell powder with his
own name upon the label, especially
when the grocer can make an abnor-
NAL profit upon 1t. Many grocers.
doubtless, do not know that the pow
ders they are thus pushing are alum
powders which would be actually con-
traband in many section II sold with
out disguise.
1t is quite impossible to give the
names Of all the alum baking powders
in the market. They are constantly
appearing In all sorts of disguises. un-
der all kinds of cognomens, and at all
kinds of prices. even as low as five
and ten cents a pound. They can be
avoided, however, by the housekeeper
who will bear in mind that all baking
powders sold at twenty-five cents or
less per pound are liable to contain
alum. as pure cream Of tartar baking
powders cannot be produced at any
thing like this price.

Another Car Blown Up.

Cleveland, July 3l.-The blowing up Of
another Euclid Beach suburban car has
demonstrated that the danger point is not
yet passed in connection with the street
car strike in this city. The plan TO re-
lease the military force early next week
will probably be abandoned and the SOL
diers retained indefinitely.
Contrary to previous reports, eight pas
sengers were aboard the car wrecked, and
that they escaped serious injury is con-
sidered almost miraculous. The explosive
used was unusually powerful. The heavy
car was lifted fully two feet from the
track by the explosion. The flooring was
blown upwards and over the tops of the
seats.
The authorities are unable to get the
slightest clue to the identity Of the per-
petrators OF the outrage.
The cars are now moving on every line
of the Big Consolidated system.

An Alarming Outlook,

Washington, August l.-Surgeon Gen
eral Sternberg received the following from
Lieutenant Colonel Dewitt:
"Fort Monroe, Va.-Surgeon Pettus,
United States marine hospital service.
quarantine officer, officially stated that
yellow fever was at the National Soldiers
home at Hampton. There were "a cases
with six deaths. The commanding officer
took immediate measures for quarantine.
General Corbin says the conditions are
serious and there is no telling how far the
infection may have reached. Excursion
parties have been coming to Old Point,
Newport News and the soldiers home.
Many of the excursionists have mingled
with the soldiers.
Corbin says one theory of the way the
fever might have been brought to the
home is that one of the soldiers recently
visited Santiago. He returned some time
since, suffering with what the physicians
thought to be dengue. 1t seems it was
not until the inmates Of the home began
to die that the disease was discovered to
be yellow fever.
Officials of the war department are very
much concerned about the situation Cor
bin and Sternberg had conference early
this morning and it was decided to hold
everything in readiness to take care Of
the yellow fever should it appear among
the troops.
Orders have been issued by the depart
ment removing the garrison at Fort Mon
roe to some point on the northern coast
to be selected by General Merritt. A few
officers and enlisted men will remain at
Fort Monroe as guards.
Surgeon General Van Ruypen of the
navy department said he did not believe
it would be necessary to suspend opera
tions at Norfolk. The navy yard, however,
would be quarantined.

How Did 1t Get Theref

Newport News, Va, Aug. 1.-The Off
GERS of the Soldiers Home at Hampton
have no idea how the yellow fever worked
its way into the place where over 1000 old
union veterans are quarantined.
This city is completely cut off from
Hampton, Old Point, and Soldiers Home
except by wire. Reports telephoned from
the last named place today show the fever
situation there is well in hand. Only one
new case has developed since yesterday
afternoon and no other deaths have been
reported.
The home grounds are effectually quar-
antined and it is not thought the disease
will spread beyond the reservation. Armed
guards will prevent any persons from the
fever infected districts from entering thu
city
