PRESIDENT OF FRANCE.
M. Fallieres Inaugurated as Successor
to NJ. Loubet.

Paris.-Clement Armand Fallieres
on Sunday assumed the duties of pres
ident of France, while former Presi-
dent Loubet passed into private life.
The ceremony of the transmission of
office took place in the Elysee palace
at o'clock in the afternoon. while the
crowds were massed in the surround
ing streets shouting: Long live the
President" and Long live Fallieres,"
and every military garrison in France
thundered salute of twenty-one guns.
President Loubet surrounded by the
members of his Cabinet, the presidents
of the Senate and the Chamber and the
members of his military household,
welcomed NJ. Fallieres, and, in few
earnest words, committed the eXecu-
tive functions to the new President.
The reply of NJ. Fallieres was without
formality. 1t was simple acceptance
o. the new responsibilities and an as
surance of his best efforts in carrying
them out.
Sunday evening Premier Rouvier
formally handed the resignation of the
Cabinet to President Fallieres. The
new President, however, requested the
ministry to continue in office.

sMooT-cASE OPINIONS.
Senators Patterson and Perkins Define
Their Positions.

Washington. - In presenting peti.
tions against Senator Reed Smoot.
signed by thousands of women of Cal
ifornia and Colorado, Messrs. Perkins
and Patterson took occasion to define
their positions on the protests against
the Utah senator.
Mr.. Perkins said it was the duty of
a senator to sit as juror upon the
conduct of a colleague and that the
chief qualification to determine the
members eligibility was that he should
be a good citizen, an honest man, OF
good character, possessing all the at
tributes that command the confidence
and respect of his fellow men. What
ever his private belief, said Mr.. Per-
kins, religious matters should have no
weight in disqualifying member from
occupying the high position of senator
of the United States. Mr.. Perkins
spoke against retracing our steps to a
period when religious war devastated
the earth. He said that our govern
ment was built on freedom of con-
science and unquestioned individuality
of expression concerning religious be-
lief, and no action should be taken
which would in the slightest degree
abridge this freedom.
Mr.. Patterson thought there were
great constitutional questions to be
considered and said these would gov
ern his vote. The petitioners had re-
uuested these senators to make some
remarks in presenting the prayers.

ORCHARDS CONFESSION.
News Says He Was n Spy for tho
Mine Owners Association.


Denver.-An Associated Press dis.
patch from Boise, Idaho, states that
Harry Orchards confession gives dc.
tails of the plot to assassinate Cover.
nor Steunenberg from its inception
1t gives the names of other men al.
legged to be implicated Since the CON
fession was secured the details have
been verified in Denver and elsewhere.
One of the statements in this con.
fession is that Orchard was selected
to assassinate Justice Goddard of the
Supreme Court of Colorado year ago.
He says he buried n bomb at the
judges gate, but when he pulled tho
string the contrivance failed to ex.
plode. He took the string away and
gave up the attempt. The bomb has
since been dug up.
In his oonfession Orchard says he
was alone in the actual execution Of
the Caldwell plot; that he had first
planned to shoot Steunenberg with
buckshot and went to the house on
Christmas eve for that purpose, intend
ing to shoot through the window, bu.
abandoned the plan and hid a number
of cartridges under the sidewalks. The
cartridges, it is claimed, have since
been found by the officers.
Denver.-The News, in it's report of
the Orchard confession, says:
The confession of Harry Orchard,
in jail at Boise, Idaho. charged with
the assassination of former Governor
Frank Steunenberg. is made public.
Orchard admits that he killed the gov
ernor, and alleges that he was hired
to commit the crime by the Inner cir
Gle" of the Western Federation of
Miners.
He claims to have attempted to dy-
Mantle Justices Gabbert and Goddard
of the Colorado Supreme Court, former
Governor Peabody and others. He
charges the leaders of the Western
Federation of Miners with long list
of crimes, beginning with the assas-
sination of Arthur Collins in Telluride
and ending with the murder of Steu-
nenberg. The text of the confession
is not given to the press, and the News
is therefore enabled to print only a
summary.
representative of the News discov-
cred that orchard was employed as q
spy by the Miner Owners association
anu TIE II lOISuCt S SIlDplo SlSSh iSdi'-
road Company during the great strike
at Cripple Creek. He fled from the
gold camp on the day of the Independ-
ence depot explosion, and was charged
with that crime. He reported all the
proceedings of the union meetings to
the Mine Owners association, and was
in their employ at the time of the In
dependence explosion.
Attorney E. f. Richardson was per-
mitted to interview Meyer, Haywood
and Pettibone in the prison at Boise,
and the men learned for the first time
of the nature of the crime with which
they are charged. Mr.. Richardson says
his clients will demand an early trial.
Kerwan, one of the vice presidents
of the Western Federation of Miners,
has taken charge of the Denver office,
and expresses his confidence in the In
nocence of the imprisoned leaders and
says the federation will supply the
| funds needed for their defense.
Several leaders of the miners organ

PURE FOOD BILL
PASSED BY LARGE VOTE IN THE
SENATE.
BY Fifteen YEARS WORK
Prohibits Shipment Of Adulterated
Foods, Drugs, Medicines or Liq-
uors-officiaIs of Corpora
tions Made Responsible.

Washington.-Afte fifteen years OF
more or less serious consideration of
the subject, the Senate Wednesday
passed pure food bill by the decisive
vote of 63 to A. The vote was taken
after a day devoted almost exclusively
to debate of a desultory character ON
the measure.
Several efforts were made to amend
the bill. and the committee accepted
number of suggestions, but only
those thus accepted were Incorporated
in the bill as passed.
The bill makes it a misdemeanor to
manufacture or sell adulterated or mis-
branded foods, drugs, medicines or liq.
uors in the District of Columbia, the
territories and the insular possessions
of the United States, and prohibits the
shipment of such goods from one state
to another or to a foreign country. 1t
also prohibits the receipt of such
goods. Punishment by fine of $500 or
by Imprisonment for one year or both
is prescribed.
In the case of corporations, officials
in charge are made responsible. The
Treasury Department and the depart
ments of Agriculture and Commerce
and Labor are required to agree upon
regulations for the collection and eX
animation of the articles covered by
the bill, but no specific provision is
made for investigation except by the
Department of Agriculture.
The bill also defines foods, drugs
medicines and liquors, and defines the
standards for them. There is an ex
emption for dealers who furnish guar
antees against adulteration and mis-
branding.
Mr.. Bailey discussed the constitu
tional features of the bill, contendine
that the interstate commerce provi
sions of the bill were invalid. He took
the position that the regulation oi
food, drugs, etc, belonged to the
states, and that federal statutes should
not be resorted to for that purpose
He said we needed better prosecuting
attorneys, rather than more govern
ment bureaus.
Begin as you are doing in this bill
and you will soon have a department
as powerful as the Postoffice Depart
ment," he said, and added:
81 doubt if any despotism in the
world vests in one individual as much
power as we give to the post master
general, who can close any mans bus
mess by an edict from which he has nc
appeal"
The important amendments adopted
ipcluded the following:
Changing the provisions regarding
the misbranding of liquors so as to
make it read: at shall be deemed
misbranded if it is blended or recti
fed, or consists Of an admixture ol
different grades of the same lflnor, OF
contains or is mixed with other sub
stances and the word blended 'recti
fed or mixed as the case may be
not plainly stated on the package,
etc.
Mr.. Moneys substitute bill and al
amendment by Mr.. Spooner authoriz
ing the secretary of agriculture to III
standards of food, drugs and liquors
were both voted down.
On the final roll call, Bacon, Bailey
Foster and Tillman, all Democrats
were the only senators to cast theil
votes in the negative.

Cincinnati, o., Oct. 9.-Cattle-The
trade in cattle today was favored
with lighter run, which by the way
was to the liking of statesmen, as it

ings, moved promptly at steady to
strong prices, while there was a stead
Ter tone to the market in general and
the volume of business was as good as

cows steady to strong.
Bulls-Moderate demand and pric-
rs steady.
Market active and shippers
are buying. Good light grade strong
to shade higher and common and
heavy rough calves unchanged.
Hogs-Although there was very
fair demand and the receipts were on

an easier and downward tendency to
prices developed from the start. Pack
