APPROPRIATIONS MADE
BY PRESENT CONGRESS
Chairman Cannon Announces That the Total Will
Amount to S750,O63,S57.
Panama Canal Appropriation Not included Statement-Demo.
Gratis Say Total VIII Amount to Billion

-7ASHINGTON, July 1.-Chairman
W Cannon Of the house appropria-
" lions committee today presented
statement of the appropriations made
AZ the present session of congress.
showing a total of $3.50, O63, 1851, not in
GLIDING the large amounts that will be
required for the isthmian canal and
public buildings and river and harbor
contracts.
In this statement Mr.. Cannon says:
AN analysis of this table shows that
The total estimated expenditure fore
cast by the executive departments ag-
gregated $776. 34S, 31S; that the total APP
prOpriations made. exclusive of $780,
10000 toward an isthmian canal, ag-
gregate $3.50. 063, S37"
After giving in detail the appropria-
tiOns under each bill. Mr.. Cannon says:
at is not inappropriate here to adj
vert 10 the fact that the expenditures
for the past two fiscal years. 1900 and
1901 show that during that period there
has been appropriated to the sinking
fund more than $113000.000, sum
greater than the law actually requires.
and which exceeds the whole amount
applied to the extinguishment of the
public debt during all the nine fiscal
years from 1891 to 1899, inclusive.
During the years of President Cleve-
lands last administration, from 1898 to
1896 inclusive. only $13,400,047 was ap-
propriated to the payment of the pub
he debt. while during the same period
that administration issued bonds to
the extent of S762. 315. 400 in order to
raise money wherewith to pay current
expenses and to maintain the public
credit.
AN analysis which I shall submit
shows that the appropriations made in
the regular annual bills for ordinary
expenses of the government payable
during the fiscal year 1908 aggregate
S595,502, 705, which, together with the
sums carried under permanent appro-
priations and exclusive of the amount
required by the sinking fund, makes a
total of 1854, 423, 800.
Entire Sum Will Not Be Expended.
In the nature of things, and in the
light of past experiences. this entire
sum win never be expended, but viii

DENIES THE ALLEGATION
American Smelling & Refining
Company's Attorney Says Con-
Germ Is Not a Trust.

Denver, Colo- July 1-James B.
Grant, general manager of the Ameri-
can Smelling & Refining company's
plants in Colorado. was served today
with netices of the suit TO be COM
menced in the supreme court for dis
solution of the trust and for the APP
pointment of a receiver for it's property.
This afternoon Assistant Attorney
General George Post left for Pueblo
and Leadville to serve notice on the
officers of the Colorado, the Philadei-
phia and the Bi-metallic smelters,
which are also alleged to be III the
trust.
1t is likely that the supreme court
will decide Saturday whether to allow
the state to file its suit. The supreme
court is due to adjourn for the term
Saturday and arguments in behalf of
the states case may not be heard be-
fore September.
There is absolutely no ground for
such an attack upon the American
Smelling & Refining company" said
Joel F. Vale, counsel for the company
today. 1.-The company is neither a
trust. combination nor monopoly. 1t
merely bought up some properties that
it wanted, just as any man in any
other business would do, thereby en-
larging his special business and OPP
Grating it on economic principles. There
is no state law prohibiting man or
corporation from buying what he or it
wants and operating it. We have done
nothing unlawful. Nor can it be shown
that the company in its operation, is
in any way restraining trade.
Anybody else may go into the
smelling business if he has the cap
ital."
Among the prime contentious on the
part of the American Smelling & Re-
filming company will be the question of
jurisdiction of the Colorado supreme
court. The corporation is organized
under the laws of New Jersey and it
will be stubbornly contended that such
a case is without the province of the
Colorado supreme court.

fight. The situation IN the anthra-

nest for Lame Horses.

An error which is frequently conn
mitted is the turning out of lame
horses to pasture. He is obliged to
exercise as he picks his living, said DR..
w. C. Fair, before the American Vet
Urinary Medical association. Another
mistake is the exercising Of trotting
and running horses on race tracks,
thus preventing them from making sat-
isfactory progress toward recovery.
By exercising lame horse we retard
his recovery, and frequently produce
atrophy of the healthy muscles in the
same limb. If hard pulling or fast
driving causes lameness, why not re-
move the cause and give him absolute
rest? That is the very reason why so
many track horses never fully recover.
They are not allowed to rest after
meeting with an injury. True, exer-
else will develop muscles, tendons and
ligaments, provided the animal be not
lame and weak in any one quarter.
