REPORT ON CHEAP Wines
DIR. sHOREY FINDS SOME OF IT
FORTIFIED.
One Lot Was Not Wine At All But a
Cheap Whiskey-Malt Extracts are
Merely Intoxicants.

At yesterdays meeting of the Board
of Health the food inspector, DIR.
Shorey, made rather startling report
in regard to the character of cheap
wines sold in this city. He reported
the following samples examined:
No. 1, Port Wine, l pint so cents;
from Cosmopolitan Saloon. Alcohol,
per cent by volume 40.2; extracts, per
cent 800. This sample was found not
to be wine, but whisky watered. The
sample contained more than the usual
amount of solids in genuine whisky,
was artificially colored and contained
added aromatics as well as a small
amount of added water. Nothing ac-
tually injurious was found In this
case Port Wine was asked for and it
is not known whether the substitution
of whisky was intentional or not.
No. 2, Port Wine, l quart, 80 cents,
from Commercial Saloon. Alcohol,
per cent by volume liz; extract per
cent 6.53; sugar Gas glucose) per cent
OS2 Ash, per cent 0.19.
mo. 3, Port Wine, l quart, 30 cents,
from California Saloon. Alcohol, per
cent by volume 1875; extract, per cent
SIC; sugar las glucose) per cent 1.56;
Ash per cent 0.245.
mo. 4, Port Wine, l quart, 30 cents,
from Hoffman Saloon. Alcohol, per
cent by volume 1876; extract, per cent
1915; sugar (as glucose), per cent 7.40;
ASH per cent O.2O0,
"Of these samples No. and No. 3
are very inferior; No. 2 in the first
place is watered, and very probably
Watered here, for it is not likely that
sweet wine would be shipped con-
tanning a percentage of alcohol as
11.9. In both No. and No. 3 there
is too great a difference between the
extract (total soids) and the sugar
indicating the addition of some vege-
table extract other than that derived
from the grape. In No. 3 and No.
a small amount of ferrous sulphate
(copperas)s is present; this may have
been introduced accidentally in the
course of manufacture. All four sam
pies were delivered in old whisky or
beer bottles corked with corks which
had been used before. In the case of
No. 2, after the sample was received
and paid for, the statement was made
that it was not port wine, but as that
was asked for and no statement was
made as to what it ought to be called
1 have reported it as above"
In his report the inspector accounts
| for the detection of watered milk in a
half dozen cases, and states that all
| capsium in place of ginger in the manu-
| facture of ginger ale.
The inspector made an extended re-
| port on malt extracts being sold by
the drug stores of the city, uncovering
the fact that nearly all of them con-
! tain as much alcohol as beer and are
| intoXicants. SchlitZ, Pabst, Schiller.
and Stout were found to be more in
toXicating than beer and were regard
ed as liquors under another claim for
| recognition, to eVade the law.
Reports of drugs examined showed
| Seidlitz powders, nitrate of iron, quiz
nine and some others to be pure.

TO PAY HAWAIIAN DEBT.
Two Million and half to be Sent to
Honolulu,

WASHINGTON, March 19.-Secre-
tary Gage said today that immediate
steps would be taken to liquidate the
outstanding debt of the former Hawai-
ian Government, in accordance with the
act of Congress passed late in the re-
cent session This will call for the eX-
penditure of $2,50O,OOO, but it will have
little effect on the funds in the Trea-
sury, as the surplus for the current fis-
cal year stood today at $36 542, 006.
secretary Gage will exercise his own
discretion in regard to the kind and de-
nomination of money to be used in
liquidating the debt, the only obligation
being to use legal tender for this pur-
pose. The required amount will be sent
to Honolulu in cash. a part of the
amount probably being in gold coin, of
which the Treasury has a greater
amount now than at any time in it's
history, and the balance in legal tender
paper money. The gold coin will be
sent from the San Francisco Mint, if it
is found convenient in order to save
express charges across the country.
The whole amount of $2,500,00 is eX-
pected within the next month to be
placed on board an Army transport
bound for Manila and calling at Homo
lulu, or on a naval vessel

THE BEST REMEDY FOR RHEU-
MATISM.

QUICK RELIEF FROM PAIN.
All who use Chamberlains Pain
Balm for rheumatism are delighted
with the quick relief from pain which
it affords. When speaking of this Mr.
d. N. Sinks, of Troy, Ohio, says: Some
time ago l had a severe attack of rheu-
matism in my arm and shoulder. 1
tried numerous remedies but got no
relief until L was recommended by
Messrs. Geo. f. Parson & Co., drug
gists of this place, to try Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. They recommended it so
highly that l bought a bottle. l was
soon relieved of all pain. 1 have since
recommended this liniment to many of
my friends, who agree with me that it
is the best remedy for muscular rheu-
matism in the market" For sale by

TO OPEN UP COAL MINE
FIRT MOVE MADE BY NEHALEM
COAL COMPANY
Men and Material Sent Down the
Coast to Lay Out the Road to
the Mountain Tunnel.

One Of the most important moves ever
inauguraied In Astoria was given a real
star; yesterday. when the tug vosburg
was sent TO the mouth Of the Nshalem
river with the material necessary 10 the
development oi the great Nehalem coa
fields. The Nehalem Coal Company

rail- IN the scene Of the work.
Officials Of the company stated last
evening that three experienced coal min
ers accompany the force sent down. and
that the work Of laying out the road
leading 70 the tunnel Will be com
menced Immediately. The coal Is in
plain sIght. and AFTER the necessary
reads are constructed actual operations
will be commenced.

A member Of the company who re-
Gently visited British Columbia said
the samples Of Nehalem coal taken
along by him were pronounced 20 be
nearer the Nanaimo produce than any
thing else ever minded in the North
west. Experienced men said It was an
excellent quality Of steam-producing
fuel and very valuable for shipping
purposes.
