ADULTERATTON OF DRUGS.
State Board of Pharmacy FindS
Many Sold Belozv Grade.

The annual report OF the State Board OF Phar-
macy for 1903 shows that the practice of selling
drugs which are not up to the standard Is more
widespread than generally supposed. Out OF 97S
samples collected for analysis by the Inspectors or
the board 400 were found to be below standard In

them was deficient In presenting the result OF

deficient samples.
Substitution and aduIteration. under the phar-
macy laws constitute serious offence and the
penalty Is severe Each year the pharmacy laws
are being strengthened so that the avenues OF
escape from the penalty OF the law for those who.
through careiessness or crminality. sell drugs de-
hcient in standard strength are becoming fewer

ROCK ISLAND MAKES TROUBLE
Will Allow Shippers a "Cartage Re-
bate" from Regular Tariffs.

The Chicago Tribune says: The So
called carriage tariff recently issued by
the Rock Island, which allows shippers
and merchants in Chicago a rebate of
cents a hundred pounds maximum for
the hauling OF merchandise and general
freight from stores, warehouses, and in
dustries to the freight -depots of the
company probably will cause row
among the western railroads. Several
lines have determined to take retalia-
tory measures, and one road is prepar-
ing a tariff, making a carriage allow
ance of cents maximum. Other roads
threaten to reduce the regular rates to
equalize the carriage allowance made by
the Rock Island. These take the posi-
ton that the allowance of an indefinite
amount practically is the paying of a
rebate to shippers and merchants, and
they believe if complaint was filed the
ruling would be that the action is in
violation of the Interstate commerce
law.
1.-The action taken by the Rock Is
land" said railroad official yesterday,
practically means store door delivery.
The matter was fought out in Chicago
twenty years ago, and the conclusion
then was reached that store door de-
livery is a bad practice. If it is done
here, it must be done at st. Louis, Kan
sas City, st. Paul, Minneapolis, and all
other important western business CEN
tiers, and the loss Of revenue to the rail-
roads would be immense"

CARMEN ARE MAD.

Pittsburg, Kas., March 1e.-The car
repairers and inspectors in the employ
of the Frisco belonging to the Car
Mems union held an indignation meet
ing in Pittsburg today to discuss what
action to take over the F'risco's max
ing a reduction in wages. Two weeks
ago a conference was held in Spring
field, and the company agreed it Is
claimed, to give the car men an adj
vance of a few cents. A strike was
threatened before that, but on the adj
vance being given the trouble was
smoothed over. It is now claimed that
yesterday the company cut the wages
to the old scale again. A special meet
ing was called to investigate the mat
ter. Representatives of the car men
at Cherokee and other points We're
present. The company lately cut down
the force, several Of the men being laid
off. A committee of the union will
wait upon the company.

WAIT TILL AFTER FAIR.
Kansas City Union Depot Proposition
Is Very Quiet.

Kansas City, Mo. March 1s.-There
is a hope that the executive committee
of the Union depot directorate will
meet soon to consider the proposition
of a new Union depot for Kansas city.
j. B. Berry, chairman of the commits
sion of engineers having in charge the
preparation of plans of the various
sites under consideration. has been in
California for three weeks. He is ex-
pected to return next week. Then per-
haos there will be a meeting.
]. o. Brinkerhoff, of the Union Pa
cific and a member of the executive
committee. said this morning that no
call had been issued for a meeting and
probably none would be issued for two
or three weeks. There is a disposition
to believe in some circles that the rail-
roads have abandoned the proposition
until after the worlds fair When the
first action in the direction of a new
depot was taken two years ago it was
believed that the project would be far
enough advanced so that some of the
track facilities of the new depot would
be completed in time for use during
the worlds fair. and now that this is
impossible it is believed that the prof.
ect will not be again seriously consid-
cred until after the worlds fair.

I announced at once to the chairman
that 1 should have to submit minor
ity report, that 1 believed in majority
rule and as there were no sustained
charges of fraud in securing that ma
jority, we could do nothing else and
be able to defend our report if called
upon to do so.
There was nothing said by any.
member of the committee about 'polit-
zeal expediency' entering into any de-
cision made. The only argument made
by a majority of the committee in the
Jackson county case was that the
chairman of the county central COM
mittee had declared a, Mr.. Hogueland
elected temporary chairman. and that
the opposition instead of appealing
from his decision in the regular par
lianentary way declared Mr.. Crane
elected, who removed Mr.. Hogueland
from the platform and proceeded to do
business. To me that was begging the
question. as a chairman who would
declare that Al was more than rs would
hardly be in farme of mind to en-
terrain an appeal. The two members
Of the committee who had voted with
me, at the close of our sitting when
all the cases had been disposed of,
concluded they would not join in a
minority report I do not think they
had changed their minds at all in ref
erence to the merits of the case, but
thought the temOer of the convention
was such that a unanimous report
would be more desirable.
Il left the committee room fully ex-
pecting to make a minority report in
the Jackson county case and one
other, but learning that there had been
very Incorporate language used on one
or both sides during an afternoon ses-
sion and noticing that its fury was not
all spent when we assembled at 8 p
NJ. I believed that it would be impos-
sible to get a dispassionate considera-
ton of a report and so kept my seat.
Results would be the same as regards
platform and nominees whether made
or not.
THE above will give you practically
the consideration of the Jackson coun-
ty case by the committee.

COULD PAVE EVERY STREET.
Santa Fe Payday at San Bernardino
Brings in Much Cash.

Speaking of its $4,000 Santa Fe pay
day the San Bernardino Times-Index
says:
This is the day at the shops which
is anticipated from one month to an
other. The money which flowed out
the Santa Fe Golfers into the pockets
of the employees was sufficient to
make a new city, or completely pave
every street in the town.
There will be no layoffs so far as
could be announced by the officials this
morning. No orders cutting down the
force have been received, and so far IS
known no such movement is contem-
plated. The various departments are
chuckablock with work, the coach
house has it's share of repairs, the
paint shop its share of cars for new
dress and the machine shop has every
engine stall occupied.
Every indication is for continued ac-
tivity among the shops and the need
for locomotive power is probably as
greatly demanded as ever. with the
prospect that there will be even a
greater demand during the summer
than has ever been before.

LIGHT FROM THE AxLEs.
New Scheme Is Tried by Denver 6
Rio Grande.

The Denver & Rio Grande last night
experimental with a new electric car
lighting device. the patent for which
is owned by the Henry Electric Equip
ment company OF this city. says the
Denver Republican. 1t is claimed for
the device that it is simpler and less
expensive to operate than any other
electric car-lighting arrangement SO
far patented. Other systems use
baggage car dynamos, operated from
steam from the engine, or storage bat
teries charged at the terminal points
on the road. The Henry device is at
tached direct to the truck of the car,
being journaled upon the axle. In con-
nection there is a storage battery.
Belts, chains and gears, used in all
other systems, are dispensed with i'll
the Henry device, and it is simplicity
itself in construction and operation.
Quite a party of railroad men and Of
f1cers of the light company went down
the road a distance to watch the oper
alton of the device.
