Seventh street, between Walnut and
Chestnut, at 1O:4O last night, and his right
arm so badly crushed that it will have

of the tracks, while the horse lay on the
tracks to the south. 1t took several men

but he finally managed to walk to a liV-
cry barn. Outside of the broken shafts,
the buggy gave no evidence Of a smash

jured.
Graft is an itinerant horse trader, who
makes a business of taking horses along

WADE HAMPTON is DEAD
NOTED SOUTHERN SOLDIER AND
SENATOR PASSES AWAY
He Gained Fame as a Confederate
officer During Civil War, and
Was Prominent in Po-
IiticaI Circles.

COLUMBIA, S. c., April 11.-Gen. Wade
Hampton died this morning. His death
resulted not from any disease, but was
the result of general breakdown.
Gen Hampton passed his eighty-third
birthday last week. A month ago he
had severe attack and his children
were called to his bedside. He rallied.
however, and was out driving a week
ago.
In the last few days his condition rap
idly grew worse and he was pronounced
precarious last night by his physicians.
Gen Hampton was born at Columbia.
S. c.. in 1918. He studied law, but never
graduated, devoting his attention to man
aging his plantations in South Carolina
and Mississippi. He was a member of the
South Carolina legislature before the war
and made notable speech against re-
opening the slave trade. He enlisted at
the beginning of the civil war as prl-
vate, but soon after raised command
as Hampton's legion which distinguished
itself at Bull Run, in the Peninsula cam
paign and many others, especially at
Gettysburg He became major general,
Aug. 3, 1863. He checked Sheridan at
Trevilian's station, 1864; was made COM
mander of Lees division in August, 1864,
with rank of lieutenant general; later
was detached to command Gen. Joseph E.
Johnston's cavalry. He was several times
wounded. After the war he returned to
his Gotten plantations. He was elected
governor of South Carolina in 1877 and
from 1879 to 1891 was United States SEN
ator. He was a Democrat, but an adyo-
cate of the gold standard.

WILL BOOST BUTTER
OLEO BILL, Likely no p.rsE
PRICE THREE CENTS A.
POUND
SO SAYS DAIRY COMMISSIONER
VIII Drive Renovated Butter From
Market and Force Poor Peo-
pie to Use UncoI-
Ored OIeo.

According to Dairy Commissioner Nc
Connell, the new cleo bill which lust
PASSED the United States senate will
boost the price of butter from to
cents pound, possibly destroy the mar
ket for country butter and make cream
worth more The tax placed on renovat-
ed butter by the bill will practically
drive that article off the market.
The renovated butter industry is great
er than most people imagine. All the
poor grades of butter made in the coun-
try districts and handled by the country
merchant go through the renovating proc
esS before being put on the market. If
they did not this country product would
be almost unstable
Mr. Mcconnell said yesterday:
1.-The new law will stimulate the cream
cry, business, and will doubtless cause
farmers in many localities to start cream
cries in order to find a market and good
price for their ere am. But there are other
things TO consider. From the producers
standpoint it may be all right, though 1t
is likely to work hardship on the back
county former who makes his own butter
and sells it for about half creamery
prices.
From the standpoint of the consumer
there are several things to consider
believe the law will raise the price of all
butter 2 or 3 cents a pound and most
people think it is high enough now. Rails
ton.
1T looks very much as though the law
would put a stop to TenOvatng. The
| question is whether this will not result
| in the buyers ladling all the poor butter
! and selling it with all its impurities That
| would be far worse for the public health
! than the renovated article. 1t will either
| do that or drive poor grades of hutter out
| Of the market. People who cannot afford
| to buy high-grade butter will be driven
| to using uncoIored cleo.
| THE law will not stop with prices of
! butter. An increase in the price of but
| ter means that the farmers cream will be
| worth more. This will raise the price of
! cheese, and of the cream we use on our
| tables. 1t is hard to tell before it goes
| into operation just what the law will do,
| but it will certainly have a widespread
| effect, for it will be national in its scope.
| What one state does will not have Ser1-
! GUS effect on the market in general, but
| when the whole country is affected, and
| foreign products shut out by the tariff,
| the situation is bound to be changed by
| such radical legislation"
There are six renoVating plants in
| Minnesota, three in Minneapolis two in
| st. Paul and one in Duluth. They buy up
! the cheap country butter, and give the
| farmers a market for it. The question
| is, can they continue to do business?
| True, the renovated butter is not a first
class article, but rule it is not dele
ferrous to health, and it is a boon to poor
| families which cannot afford to pay fancy
| prices.

SCHIFFMANN EXAMINES
OIL INSPECTOR REPORTS ON
FRANZWA CASE.

State Oil Inspector Fred G. Schiffmann
said yesterday:
I'm spite of the many warnings issuc1
by our department. people still continue
to disregard the danger there is in using
gasoline and kerosene. When carelessly
handled. it is as dangerous as dynamite
Reading about the terrible death of
a domestic who was burned by a kero,
sene explosion at the residence of E. w.
Wilson, 1172 Ross street, l today sent an
inspector to see if the car, Rad been
properly labeled when bought, so the
nature of its contents was known.
1.-The inspector reports that the can
was labeled. and that the explosion was
occasioned in this way:
Running out of gasoline, the girl had
poured the kerosene oil into the tank of
the gasoline stove 1t would not burn,
so she poured it out into can to save
it.
There had been some kerosene left in
the tank, which was thus mixed with
the oil, and when she used this mixture
to start a fire in a coal stove tn eexplo-
sion followed, and was undoubtedly
caused by the gasoline teaspoon of
which thrown upon an open fire will
cause an explosion of very dangerous
proportions"

WEST SIDE SEWERS
SIXTH WARD RESIDENTS OBJECT
TO PRESENT METHOD OF
DRAINAGE
FLOWS INTO sTAGNANT WATER
Wing Dams Shut Off Current and
Sewage Is Not Carried Away
Pipes Should BE
Extended.

In the course Of the hearing as to the
location of the harbor line of the river,
held at the United States engineering de-
partment last Thursday, facts regarding
the sewerage system of the West side
were made known which have caused
general apprehension among the residents
of that and in fact other portions OF
the city.
The discussion brought out the fact that
the sewage from a large area of the
Sixth ward, which includes the manu-
featuring district, is drained into that
portion of the river between the islands
and the west bank, which, for the sake
of accelerating the current in the main
stream, is shut off by wing dams, and
is therefore dead and almost entirely
stagnant. The territory in question, which
is located between Robert and Wabasha
Streets lies too low to make it's connec-
ton with the main sewer system of the
West side possible, and as it is thickly
built up along the river bank with fac
tories, sewerage facilities of some sort
must be provided, two special sewers haze
been constructed to meet the demand.
These sewers, it was explained, both dis
charge into the river above the lower
wing dams, and therefore into the dead
water, thus forming stagnant pools OF
filth which must necessarily be a men
ace to health.
This alarming condition was not pre-
viously known to many of those present,
and its seriousness caused general anx-
iety. The necessity of prompt attention
to this matter was recognized and for a
time the original topic Of discussion gave
way to suggestions for the correction OF
this evil. 1t was generally agreed that
the sewers should be at once extended
out to the main channel of the river, or
down the river to point below the wing
dams.
The matter will be called to the at
tention of the health department and the
city's engineers Office at once.
