DUN'S TRADE REVIEW.
Some Adverse Factors are Noted, but
the General Situation 10 Good.

New York.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review Of Trade says:
Devastation on the Pacific coast
and a widened breach between an
thracite coal miners and operators
We're adverse trade factors of grave
local significance, but the nation as a
whole is responsive to the favorable
influence of good weather for spring
business, agricultural undertakings
aud building operations. a special
canvass of the winter wheat situation
by this paper shows little injury and
large acreage, and structural work is
not checked by the high prices of
building materials.
Better reports are received from
leading departments of the iron and
steel industry than at any previous
time this year.

RELATIVE TO THE PACKERS CASE
President Roosevelt Sends a Message
to Congress.

Washington, d. C.-In a special
message delivered to congress on
Wednesday President Roosevelt de-
clares that the result of the recent
trial of the beef packers" in Chicago
was a miscarriage of justice" and
that the Interpretation placed by
Judge Humphrey on the will of con-
gress 'is such as to make that will alb
solutely abortiye."
The message, which is most sensa-
tional in character, is based largely
on letter to the president from At
torney General Moody, in which the
attorney general reviews the proceed
ings of the case of the government
against the beef packers. The presi-
dent says it is clear that no criticism
attaches to Commissioner Garfield.
He refers sharply, however, to the
decision of Judge Humphrey, saying
that congress could not have foreseen
such a decision and that he can hardly
believe that the ruling of Judge
Humphrey will be followed by other
judges. He declares that such inter-
probation of the law as that placed on
it by Judge Humphrey comes meas
urably near making the law a farce"
and he recommends that congress pass
a declaratory act stating it's real inten-
tion. The president also requests
congress to confer upon the govern
ment, by statute, the same right of ap-
peal, in criminal cases, which the de-
fendant now enjoys, where the merits
of the case have not been determined.

Officials are MuICted in $1O,-
600 Zach at Chicago.

Chicago, IIl.-The Chicago, Bur-
Iington & Quincy Railroad Co.
and Darius Miller and Claude G.
found guilty Friday in the federal
court of granting rebates in violation
of law. The railroad corporation was
fined $4,000 and the two officials $10,-
900 each.
The technical charge against the
railroad and against Mr.. Miller, who
is traffic manager and vice president
of the road, and Mr.. Burnham, who is
foreign manager, was that illegal re-
bates had been granted to the United
States Steel Products Export Co.,
which is a subsidiary company OF the
United States Steel Corporation, in
shipping tin plate from this country
to Vancouver, B. G.
A few minutes sufficed to procure a
jury. Chester M. Dawes, counsel for
the railroad company, read an extend
ed statement in which he acknowl
edged that the facts as charged in the
indictment were correct He admitted
a technical violation of the Elkins act
and the case then went to the jury,
District Attorney Morrison making
no recommendation to the court. A
verdict of guilty was returned at once
and Judge Bethea Immediately passed
| sentence.
The fine was paid at once, the de-
PENDANTS going to the office of United
States Marshal Ames, where a check
was made out for the full amount of
the three fines. Under the law the
court could have assessed a fine of
from ST. 900 to $4,000 under each of
the six counts in the indictment.

Now we come to a frisky lot, the
Labor Union" editors. You know
down in Texas a weed called
"Loco" is sometimes eaten by a
steer and produces arrangement
of the brain that makes the steer
"batty" or crazy. Many of these
editors are "Locoed" from hate of
anyone who will not instantly obey
the demands" of labor union,
and it is the universal habit of such
writer's to go straightinto system
of personal vilification, manufac-
turing any sort of falsehood
through which ovent their spleen.
We assert that the common citizen
has right to live and breathe air
without asking permission of the
labor trust and this has brought
down on us the hate of these edi-
tors. When they go far enough
with their libels, is it harsh for US
to get judgment against them and
have our lawyers watch for
chance to attach money due them
from others? Cor they are usual
ly irresponsible.)
Keep your eye out for the "Lo-
coed" editor.

Cooking school teachers-this
includes teachers" who have ap-
piled to us for a weekly pay if they
would say something nice" about
Grape-Nuts and Postum, and when
we have declined to hire them to
do this they get waspy and show
their true colors.
This also includes "demonstra-

certain Sanitarium to sell foods
made there, and these people in
structed by the small-be-whis-
kered doctor-the head of the in
stitution-to tell these prevarica-
tions (you can speak the stronger
word if you like). This same little
doctor conducts a small magazine
in which there is a department
of answers to correspondents"
many of the questions as well as
the answers being written by the
aforesaid doctor.
In this column some time ago
appeared the statement: "No, we
cannot recommend the use OF
Grape-Nuts for it is nothing but
bread with glucosepoured over it."
Right then he showed his badge as
member of the tribe of Ananias.
He may have been member for
some time before, and so he has
caused these Lecturers" to de-
scend into the ways of the tribe
wherever they go.

Now let all these choice specimens
take notice:
We will deposit one thousand or
fifty thousand dollars, to be covered by
a like amount from them, or any one of
| them. and if there was ever one ounce
of old bread or any other ingredient
different than our selected wheat and
barley with a little salt and yeast used
in the making of Grape-Nuts, we will
| lose the money.
Our pure food factories are open at all
| times to visitors, and thousands pass
| through each month, inspecting every
department and every process. Our rae
| tories are so clean that one could, with
good relish, eat meal from the floors.
The work people, both men and wom-
| en-, are of the highest grade in the state
| of Michigan, and according to the state
| labor reports, are the highest paid in
| the state for similar work.
Let us tell you exactly what you will
see when you inspect the manufacture or
| Grape-Nuts. You will find tremendous
| elevators containing the choicest wheat
and barley possible to buy. These
grains are carried through long convey
ers to grinding mills, and there convert
ed into flour. Then the machines make
selection of the proper quantities OF this
-four in the proper proportion and these
parts are blended into a general flour
which passes over to the big dough mix
ing machines, there water, salt and lit
tie yeast are added and the dough knead-
ed the proper length of time.
Remember that previous to the barley
having been ground it was passed
through about one hundred hours OF
soaking in water, then placed on warm
floors and slightly sprouted, developing
the diastase in the barley, which changes
| the starch in the grain into form OF
| sugar.
Now after we have passed it into
| dough and it has been kneaded long
enough, it is moulded by machinery into
loaves about IS inches long and 5 or 6
inches in diameter. 1t is put into this
shape for convenience in second cooking.
These great loaveS are sliced by ma
chinery and the slices placed on wire
trays, these trays, in turn, placed on great
steel trucks, and rolled into the second
airy ovens, each perhaps 20 or 80 feet long.
There the food is subjected to long low
heat and the starch which has not been
heretofore transformed is turned into a
form of sugar generally known as Post
Sugar. 1t can be seen glistening on the
granules of Grape-Nuts If held toward
the light, and this sugar is not poured
over or put on the food as these prevari-
Gators ignorantly assert. On the con-
trary the sugar exudes from the interior
of each little granule during the process
of manufacture, and reminds one of the
little white particles of sugar that come
out on the end of n hickory log after
1t has beer sawed off and allowed to
stand for length of time.
This Post Sugar is the most digestible
food known for human use. 1t is so per-
