TO AVOID PAYING TAXES.
Checks Were Written But Never I Ak
en- From Union Central
Office.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, March 10
Checks for cash amounting to $780,
600 were written, but never taken
from the Office of the Union Central
Life Insurance Company, as means
of avoiding taxes, according to the
testimony Of Jesse r. Clark, treas
urer of the company, Thursday in the
suit of the County Treasurer to re
cover 100000 in unpaid taxes. This
testimony was given after a long ar
gument by the attorneys against and
for its admission.
The attorney for the company offer
ed to confess judgment for taxes on
100000, the amount said to have
been covered by unused checks, and
sought to keep from the record any
statement by Treasurer Clark on the
matter. However, it was finally de
cided to submit all the facts to the
courts, and the statement followed.
He said that when tax time approach
ed the company had immense
amounts of cash in the banks, which
were taxable as cash, but that all pos.
sible were transferred into mortgage
loans, which were untaxable. Agents
we're notified to place all such money
possible and checks were drawn fol-
the amount of the cash on hand, the
money being at once credited to the
mortgage loan account and being con
sidered untaxable. Mr.. Clark held
that this was a perfectly legitimate
transaction, as the money was out Of
immediate reach, the banks being not
flied that it had been set aside aaf
was not to be checked against again
for the time. The rest of the case
will be submitted to an agreed state
ment of the facts and on briefs.

SMUGGLING ARMS TO CHINA.
Instances Of Practices Discovered
Aboard Steamer at San Fran
cisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, March S.-The
Examiner today says:
Twenty-Five modern rifles and TO-
900 rounds of ammunition were seiz-
ed in the quarters of the
Chinese crew yesterday on the Pa
cifc steamer Manchuria, scheduled to
sail for the Orient this afternoon. The
company's officials thereupon, it is
said, made a thorough search of the
snip, and this resulted in two more
boxes being found in the room OF an
assistant engineer. The engineers
and Chinese were questioned and it
was found that the guns had been
purchased in this city by the engin-
GERS and struggled aboard the vessel.
The officials say they believe there
are more guns aboard, but this will
not be certain until the freight has
been discharged from the steamer on
her arrival at Hong Kong. Nothing
is known as to how long the SNUG
Cling Of this character of goods has
been going on, or how many rifles
have been sent in this way to China

aule lot of express. The car was in
charge of Route Agent Octa Cherry

Final Drying Process.

When the drum is slowly revolved
the salt which has been poured inside
from the crusher is thrown from The
projecting shelves against the hot
steam pipes in the center and thus
thoroughly dried. Sometimes an adj
ditional coil of steam pipes at one end
of a drum is used, air being forced
over this coil by steam fan.
through the entire length of the drum
When the salt leaves the drum it is
dried as perfectly as it is possible to
dry salt
After drying the salt it is ready for
packing. A bagging machine fills the
sacks and automatically weighs them
Barrels are filled by hand, the barrels
by the way, being made at the factory
Nearly fifty men are employed at
the two factories. One Of the factor
les considers six carloads a day fair
shipment, although the amount of salt
manufactured varies largely with at
mospheric conditions.

COTTON FUTURE DEALING.
Receive Staggering Blow From Texas
Court of Civil Appeals.

DALLAS, Texas, March S.-The
Court of Civil Appeals at Austin yes
terday gave what looks like fatal
blow to dealers in cotton futures in
Texas, in reversing and dismissing
the case of Jesse L. Norris against
w. H. Logan. The complainant sued
Logan to recover money furnished to
buy futures, alleging that Logan had
not sold according to directions. Lo-
gan filed a counter suit for money put
up on the margins. The court dis
missed the case, saying it was gam
bling. The effect of the decision is
that neither side can collect money in
i exas on deals in cotton futures.
