TERRELLS ARE IN ATLANTA

Atlanta. October 4-( (Speeial.)-A stormy session og tas railroad commission of Georgia was held in the audience cham Der Of that body today when shippers from every station along the Atlanta and West Point railroad appeared before the commission in body to protest against the petition of that road 10 be allowed to raise it's freight rates because belt line has been put in at Atlanta, lengthen- ing the road bed by four. miles.
 The shippers claim that this Is a rank injustice 10 make them pay for an extra haul which is secured by a eireutous route Of entry to Atlanta. According to the old trackage the distance between At lanta and LaGrange was seyenty-one miles. According to the tariff sheet La Grange was figured on the seventy mile basis With this belt line of four miles added the distance is made seventy-ive miles and freight rates are to be com puted on a seventy-fve mile basis. This means a difference of $6 a car in freights. and the protestants contend 1t will cost the shippers sli5o0,0O0 a year additional.
 The railroad claims that the line has been heightened, the service improved and the road asks the right for pay ac- cording to the mileage the freight is hauled.
 Attorney Albert Howell appeared before the commission to present and argue the petition. Shippers from West Point, New nan, LaGrange, Hogansville, Granville, Palmetto and Faiburn appeared and voiced their protests. The commission will announce It's decision at later meet ing.
 Will Fight Switching Order.
 According to railroad gossip current in capitol corridors today during the meet ing of the railroad commission as soon as the order of the commission ordering all railroads to switch cars for competing roads at intersecting points or pay a de- murrage the roads will fight the order by securing an injunction.
 Atlanta has suffered greatly on this ac- count, as railroads hauling cars of coal to be delivered to yards on competing lines refused to switch the cars and often times coal was hauled In drays across the city, causing an increase to the consumer in the matter of delivery charges. Ac- cording to the order recently passed $1 day for each car delivered and not switched Is the penalty.

STATE CHEMISTS REPORT
Publishers Press.1

| indianapolis. Dec. 22.-Some weeks
ago H E. Barnard, chemist of the
State laboratory of hygiene, sent out
207 warning notices to druggists OF
the State, advising them of certain
illegal drugs that they had for sale,
and giving the analysis of these
drugs. In this warning letter Mr..
Barnard asked for an explanation of
the several derelictions.
He has received answers from 1877
druggists, and has made complia-
ton of these answers. Twenty three
retailers gave explanations for the
composition of lime waters; seven
teen acknowledged carelessness in
manufacture and storage and five
said that they used lime water tab
lets. Thirty-eight dealers whose tin
cture of iodine was found to be be-
low standard said that they attribut-
ed the fact to improper storage, care
less manufacturers, improper solu-
lions, etc, and fourteen dealers used
old formulas which did not call for
the addition of potassium iodide.
t'ifty-nine druggists explained the
fact that their tincture of iron was
below standard to the purchase Of
the solution of chloride of iron from
the wholesaler, ten admitted careless
manufacture or storage, and six the
use of an old formula.
Bought From Wholesaler.
Black anthony is not without in
terest. Sixteen retailers explained
the sale of illegal black antimony by
saying that they bought the goods
from the wholesaler and supposed
the goods to be pure. One retailer
stated that he paid IL cents pound
for the preparation, which upon an
alysis proved to be coal dust. This
is at the rate of $144 ton for coal,
a rather expensive price," said Mr..
Barnard.
1T is apparent that the trade in
black anthony is entirely demoraliz-
ed. This is true, also, with reference
to precipitated sulphur; forty-five
dealers reporting as to the quality of
their precipitated sulphur, in every
case stated that they thought they
purchased pure goods from the
Old Formulas.
"The use of old formulas and phar-
of the edition abandoned
twenty years ago, explains many re-
suits that seem impossible to the
druggist who uses every care in COM
his preparations. In only
)ne instance does the retailer lay the
quality of his goods to the clerks err
or, and in no case did the dealer ad-
nit the illegal sale.
THE conclusion to be drawn from
his brief summary is that the retail
druggists should observe more care
n the preparation of the goods, dis
ard old formulas, and pharmaco-
,oeias of the latest edition and insist
IN guarantees of purity from the
wholesaler with whom they deal.
The purchaser of drugs, whether he
,e physician or layman, can take cog
iZance of none of these facts. He
Expects to obtain pure and standard

PITTSBURG, Oct. 30.-Clifford Hooe,
the negro formerly coachman for Au-
gustus Hartrje, was convicted of per-
jury today in connection with a depo-
sition against Mrs. Mary Scott Hartje
and which formed the basis of the
recent sensational Hartje divorce trial.
The case was submitted to the jury
at 1890 Only one ballot was taken,
and when court convened at / O'Clock
the verdict was announced.
The closing features Of the case were
sensational and exciting in the ex-
treme.
The attorneys during the arguments
attacked one another indiscriminately
with accusations and during the adj
dress of Assistant Attorney Robb the
negro defendant jumped from his seat
and shouted that the attorney lied.
Attorney ]. Scott Ferguson addressed
the jury for the defense, making an
impassioned appeal for the negro and
criticising Assistant District Attorney
Robb.
Mr.. Robb, in closing the case for the
state, scored not only the defendant
but also his counsel, being interrupted
time and again, on one occasion Mr..
Ferguson giving notice that he would
apply for a new trial because of Mr..
Robb's remarks.
Judge r. s. Fraser's charge to the
jury was an impartial review of the
law and evidence.

BUTTE, Mont, Oct. S0.--A Miner spe-
cial from Billings tonight says that a
telephone message from Arvada, wyo..
this evening stated that the renegade
Ute Indians are intrenched in a strong
position in the hills adjacent to Arvada
and that the Tenth and Sixth cavalry
troops are accommodating the country
preparatory to closing in on the red
skins.
Apparently the object Of the troops
is to awe the Indians with display OF
superior force and thus secure the sur
render of the Indians without blood
shed.
The Utes are determined not to give
in to the soldiers until they have to,
believing that if they would IL would
mean their return to Utah, where they
say they cannot secure enough to eat.
The Utes have been active in laying
in a large supply of ammunition at
Cheyenne and Gillette. together with
provisions. and if the temper of the
leading tribesmen can be taken as an
Indication, they propose to fight or at
least with show of resistance secure
concessions from the soldiers and be
permitted to make their way to the
Cheyenne reservation and remain there
pending their disposition by Washing
ton.
Tonight the camp fires of the Indians
are blazing brightly, and the only evil
dence of life is the occasional fitting
of the shadow of some warrior by the
fires.
