Corned Beef viii Be Gray and Catsup
Erown-EHect of Pure Food

Washington, Feb. 2S.-The pure food
bin, as passed by the senate, destroys
some cherished illusions. If it should
become a law as it now stands, all
Whistles not labeled adulterated will be
white, and tomato catsup a dark,
muddy brown.
The bill will prevent q pure food
butcher from corning beef with salt
peter. The beef may be corned in
brine, that is all. No preservative shall
be used. The beef will be a dirty gray
instead of red.
ami will not be green any more, il
pure. They will be a BALE faded, yell
loWish green. Frankfuriers and kraut
will pass into history, Inc with them
all the "wursts." The pure" cucum-
Der pickle will cost more, for manu-
facturers say they cannot afford to a
the high price FOR pure vinegar tc
make pickles of the cucumbers.
There will be no more highly COL
pred currant jelly made from apple
Feelings and cores, and even the sue
culent cranberry will be in violation
Of the law If placed as a sauce or jelly
without the damning label, because in
its natural state it contains benzoic
acid. There is no disposition, however,
on the part Of congress to impose PEN
alties on Providence for ad%ulterating
ITS own products.
The argument is hat While foods
may not look SO well they will be far
more healthful. The government does
not wish to put n manufactures out
of business, and there is a provision
that any manufacturer shall not be
molested provided each article he pro-
duces bears in print what preserva-
tiVes are used.
For instance, every bottle Of adul-
terated catsup must bear a placard
that in addition to tomatoes. spices
and sugar, 1t contains benzoate of soda.
Likewise every slice of corned beef sold
must bear the printed announcement
that %saltpeter has been Used. All pre-
served, timed vegetables and fruits
will lose their appetizing appearance il
put up pure, but they ma continue as
before If printed cards be used telling
what is used in preserving them.

sky-blue, or any other tint, if the in

Four Insurance Companies Tire of the
Fight with Missouri.
Jefferson City. Mo, Feb. 2S.-Four In
surance companies notified w. D. Van
diver, the Missouri insurance commits
sioner, that they would withdraw from
the state March l., when their present
licenses expire. These companies are
the Bankers Life company of New
York. the Mutual Reserve Life COM
pany Of New York, the Cosmopolitan
Life company of Freeport, Ill. and the
Northwestern National Life company
of Minneapolis.
The announcement of withdrawal of
he Mutual Reserve company Of New
York was contained in a letter from
George D. Eldridge, the company's first
vice president. Mr.. Vandiver stated
that the withdrawal notice saved him
the trouble of ousting the company
from the state, as he has prepared the
custer order and it would have been
issued today had he not received this
notice that the company would quit
the state.
The withdrawal from the state does
not in any way affect it's policy con
tracts now in existence in this state.
The orher three companies withdrew

that there will be no general strike of

out last night in indianapolis by Vice
President Lewis.

committee of bituminous operators, was

the situation. l see no prospects of
aVerting a strike on April 1. No meet
ing of operators has been held. Their
could be no change of front on the part
of the operators without a conference

accede to the demands of the miners
made upon the operators for an adj

GOULD HARDLY BELIEVE
THE REPORT FROM YUMA
A Citizen of That Town Thinks The
Present Disaster Not so Bad as Re
ported.

DIR. A. c. Byrnes of Yuma arrived i'm
the city yesterday BY circuitous route
on his way to the QuartZsite country,
where he will superintend the doing of
assessment work on the Pease proper
ties. He came to Phoenix by the way
o. Florence and will remain in town
To-Day. No one was more greatly sur
prised imam DIR. Byrnes at the news
that that the Colorado had again brok-
en- through into the SaltOn Sea and he
is still inclined TO believe that the
break is not so bad as it has been re-
ported to be. He is certain it did not
occur on Saturday night, as the first
reports stated, for he did not leave
Yuma until Sunday night at IL o'clock
and late that afternoon there had been
no break He said there was some wa
ter finding its way through the govern
ment dyke a mile below the Kinds
dam. but that fact had created no spec
ial alorm.
That break. DR.. Byrnes says, will not
be nearly so hard TO stop as the one at
the intake. and he thinks that the
Southern Pacific will spare no expense
in stopping IL The company has more
to consider than the comparative cost
of conquering the Colorado again and
the cost of building a higher line of
railroad. The southern Pacific assumed
the burden of the California Develop
ment company in the former struggle,
and expended more than million dol
lars. There is now little left of the
development company which is liable
to the Southern Pacific which in order
TO reimburse itself. must give the
holding of the development company
some value. The assets Of the company
consist wholly of land in the Imperial
valley. and the water rights which go
with them.
And il may be added that just now 4
great deal of water has gone with these
water rights.
