But recently Philadelphia confec-
TONERS confessed to using glucose In
the manufacture OF their products in
violation OF the pure food law, and
the fines imposed amounted to the
enormous sum OF s5o0,0oo. Hardly a
day passes in which either proceed
ings are not commenced against some
trust operating in restraint of trade
or conviction secured. The govern
nlent is after the trusts. after viola
tors OF the pure food law, and the
attempt at regulation has been at
tended with gratifying success. Ac-
tion against the tobacco trust has
been commenced before Judge Hough
in the United States circuit court of
New York. Counsel representing the
McAndrews and Forbes company and
the J. s. Young company of Baltimore,
both subsidiary companies of the
American Tobacco company have
pleaded not guilty. The charge against
the defendants is that they violated
the Sherman antitrust law In restraint
OF trade. Delaney Nicoll and John
ID. LINDSAY, cousel for defendants, de-
scribe the case as Of paramount i'm
portance to the trade. Henry L. Slim
son, United States district attorney,
who is prosecuting, has large num-
Der of witnesses to examine, and the
case is expected to last fourteen days.
A further charge will be preferred
against the defendants at the ter
mination of the present cases. They
win be indicted for Illegally controll-
ing the output Of liquorice paste used
In making plug tobacco. The govern
ment will charge that under a secret
agreement they divided the trade be-
tween them, forcing prices up exor-
bitantly. One company, it will be
charged, furnished the material to
the trust companies and the other to
the independent manufacturers. Con-
gress and the entire country has been
watching the outcome of these par
ticular cases for years and great in

SATURDAY, JUNE 80, 1906.

Deputy Consul Mclean of Yoko- hama advises American doctors not
 to try to do business in Japan, since the war there having been a number
 who tried to do business there. He says that no one is allowed to prac- tice medicine in Japan unless he holds the government license. For eigners desirous of obtaining the li- cense must be residents in Japan. Their applications must be accom- panied by either diplomas from re- spectacle medical colleges or licenses from their own government, together with the applicants personal history, etc. Upon receipt of such applica- tion the government will investigate the character and standing of the ap- plicant, as we'll as that of the college, or the nature of the license from for eign government, and, if found satis- factory, it will grant the license. Such investigation usually takes about six months. The natives here invariably prefer their own physi- clans, and the foreign community, less than 5000 people, is amply pro- vided with both American and Eu- ropean doctors.

The issue of New England Home stead of June 30, 1906. is unique in its way, and the specialization of a campaign for wider and better az. riculture in our eastern states. It iI known as the home seekers number of New England Homestead, made up of thirty-two pages, given over almost exclusively to outlining the merits of our eastern states as an agricultural proposition. It says that many farmers in New England are each producing 500 to 1000 bar rels of apples annually, and as high as 10000 barrels are grown by one man in a single year; the instance cited in New Hampshire. This, ac- oording to the home seekers number of the New Engand Homestead bear ing date June 30. This points out that practically every one of the six New England states has hundreds of acres of so-called hill land that could be profitably given over to apple orchards on commercial scale, One farmer in the Pine Tree state says that some of the best orchard land in Maine can still be purchased at $5 to $50 per acre. A Connecticut grower reports crop of strawberries which yielded at the rate of $500 an acre in money returns.

DEAF MUTE TALKED.
Kornblum Says Giants Catcher Lick.
 ed Him for Talking Too Much.

Frank l.. Bowerman, catcher for the Giants, has been sued by a deaf mute for s20.000 damages.
 The plaintiff is Michael Kornblum In spite of his defect of speech and hearing he says he makes very good living as a salesman. He was in Pitts burg when Bowerman was arrested for striking a boy out there. The catcher was discharged in the case of alleged assault against the boy, but he cherished a resentment against Kornblum. so the latter now declares, because he thought the deaf mute told the story 10 the Pittsburg papers. He accused the deaf and dumb man of talking too much.
 Bowerman is a master of the sign language, and he had an argument with the mute. SO Kornblum says. and ended by knocking him down and breaking his glasses. That's why he wants the s2O,000.
