CO. Case.

Denver, Col. Oct. Judge Henry c.
Caldwell. in the United States circuit
court decided the case of George F.
Bartlett against Gates, Blair and Mitch
ell and the officers of the Colorado Fuel
& Iron company. $3.50
This is the case in which Bartlett OBJ
tanned an injunction preventing the
stockholders meeting of August 20,
from being held and in which Gates and
his associates fled q cross bill The
court orders now that the stockholders
meeting be held on 10th day of Decem-
Der, and The effect of the order is that
1t be in charge of and conducted by
Chairman Osgood in accordance with
the bylaws of the company and the
statutes of Colorado.
Gates and his associates have bitterly
attacked the officers of the company for
the passage of certain bylaws provid-
ing the manner in which stockholders
meetings should be conducted and have
claimed that these bylaws were invalid
and passed for the purpose of continJE-
ing the present management in power.
The court holds that these bylaws are
valid.
Judge Caldwell also decides against
the contention of Gates that the stock
booker Trust company should be used
for the purpose of determining who had
right to vote at the meeting and de-
cides that the books of the secretary of
the company be used in ascertaining
that fact.
The court viii appoint Judge Seymour
D. Thonpson,. of St~Louis. as master to
investigate and report to the stockhold-
ers' meeting. who. in fact, had a right
to vote and for this purpose empowers
him to take testimony in New York,
Denver and elsewhere.
The court also decided that the own
ers of stock or their. proxies had a
right to vote even if they did not APP
pear on the New York books when the
same closed.

give Kid Mccoy chance. as see he
is out with a $4,000 challenge. But
shall not fight unless good inducements
are offered.
THE only man besides myself who
would stand theslightest chance against
Jeffrtes is Gus Rubin. Rubin is a far

of his present ten weeks theatrical en-
gagement he would go to New York
and take charge of his physical culture
school, He intends, he said, to devote

The oleomargarine manufactu.
rers boldly declare that they will
evade the law prohibiting the prae-
tice OF coloring their product to
initiate butter, by selling the color
ing matter separately, with in
structions for using the same so that
hotel keepers or others wishing to
pass it as butter can do so. The
public shoulh promptly spot the
hotels which play such a trick up
on their guests and boycott them.
The claim that Oleomargarine is
just as wholesome as butter is
untrue. 1t is made of beef fat
which is exceedingly indigestible
and the continued eating of which
is said 10 be a leading cause of
dyspepsia aud other stomach
troubles. Like lard, it is far less
digestible than butter This paper
wishes for the welfare OF the cat
tie interests, but not at the sacri-
fee Of the peoples health. Oleo-
margarine is unfit for use as food,
and should be rejected by everyone
who has any respect for his
stomach. Fortunately, the cattle
industry is in healthy enough
condition not to be affected by the
suppression Of this fake by-pro-
due of the psekeries.
