DENATURED ALCOHOL.
How the New Bill Affects the Farmers Of North
Dakota.
Dakota,

With the tax removed from alcohol,
the question of supplying manufacturers
is simple one, as there is wide range
of prices at which they can use alcohol
to advantage. They have been paying
$40 per gallon for grain alcohol, and
from 70 cents to s1.5o per gallon for wood
alcohol, greatly inferior substitute.
Hence 80 or even 50 cent alcohol means
a tremendous benefit to them. In view
of this, it is altogether likely that the
regulations will provide for the use of a
larger percentage of wood alcohol as a
denaturent in all alcohol for manufacture
ing purposes, as the increased cost would
not be prohibitive.
There is nothing in the new law which
adds to the cost of manufacturing alco-
hol. The tax is wiped out, and an ap-
preparation is made to enable the gov
ernment to pay the expense of admins
tration and supervision. 1t will cost
nothing to license distillery or de-
naturizing warehouse.
The importance Of protecting the in
terests of the farmers was brought to the
attention of the president by Congress-
man Marshall of North Dakota and Con-
gresham Murdock of Kansas. The
president fell in with their idea most
heartily, and Commissioner Yerkes is
also in complete sympathy.
The regulations of the commissioner
will provide for the licensing of distil-
leries with daily capacity of 100 bushels
Of grain, or about $50 gallons of CONNER
cial alcohol. The small distillery will be
on par with the large one. The law
provides for denaturizing in a separate
bonded warehouse, which simply means
that the distillery can have a separate
room completely shut off from the dis
tillery proper, or small building near
by, where the denaturizing can be car
ried on in the presence Of the govern
ment inspe :tor. A number Of plants

Thomas Tnggart Gives lie to Repor,
 of Raid at French Lick Hotel.

Thomas Tnggart Gives lie to Report
 of Raid at French Lick Hotel.
 FRENCH LICK SPRINGS, Ind, July 6.-Thomas Taggarts chairman of the Democratic national committee, gave out the following statement in reply to the demand made by the New York World that he resign the national chair manship of the Democratic committee:
 The New York World has allowed itself to be imposed upon by the false and scandalous publications of rival newspaper whose editor is my personal enemy for reasons best known to him self. There has been no raid or at tempted raid upon the French Lick Springs hotel.
 "A building owned by the French Lick Springs company, wholly discon. nected from the hotel property. was leased to party to be used for bill lizards and bowling alleys, with a strong clause against gambling in the lease. After time this tenant permitted gambling. We brought suit for pos session on the ground, of the breach of that provision In the lease and recov- cred judgment. He appealed the case. and it is pending trial in the present term of court The state authorities have supplemented our efforts to re- cover possession by raiding that build ing, and that is all there is to the gross ly sensational publications in which the World has placed credence.
 "The French Lick Springs hotel has not tolerated, and will not tolerate, gambling in any form on its premises. This is attested by the court records, and it is well known to Mir. Hearst, who, with such knowledge, continues the publication of his vindictive and libelous falsehoods."

o Antitrust League Asked President to -eHead Reception to Nebraskan on His Return From Tour
 of the World.

OYSTER BAY, N. r., July 6.-Presi- dent Roosevelt will not preside at the reception the Commercial Travellers Antitrust league is to tender William J. Bryan at Madison Square Garden, New York, Aug. 19 on Mir. Bryan's re- turn from around the world.
 The complimentary letter of William Hoge, president of the league, inviting President Roosevelt to oficiate and expressing the nonpartisan character of the organization and it's belief that the president is as much an enemy of the trusts as MT. Bryan was received and answered by Secretary Loeb. 54- The president had determined some time ago to refuse all proffered en- agreements during the summer, and Secretary Loeb needed no further con- sultation in sending a declination.
 In accordance with time honored GUS tom, President Roosevelt has cabled his hearty congratulations to the royal family of Germany on the birth of an heir to the throne. This message was in response to an official notification from the German capital to the nations of the world. Such notifications follow marriages, births and deaths in the ruling families of the European na- tions. The presidents message will probably be made public by the reel pients.

BORGES SENTENCED
Ubero Plantation Fraud Pro-
 moter Punished.
"A COMMON AND NOTORIOUS THIEF"
Many People Imposed Upon by False Representation Regarding Msx- / ican Fruit Farm-Owen h
 Wanted by Police.

BOSTON, July 6. = Ferdinand E. Borges, formerly of Indiana and one of the promoters of the Ubero Planta- tion company, was sentenced to serve from twelve to fifteen years in state prison for larceny and conspiracy by Judge White in the superior criminal court
 Borges was convicted on seventy three counts of larceny and one of conspiracy in connection with the af- fairs of the Ubero company. He was indicted with former Representative William D. Owen of Indiana, who escaped and has not yet been arrested.
 Borges. whose wife sat near him as the sentence was announced, was ap- parently astounded at the punishment. He recovered bis self control quickly, however. The terms of the sentence provide hard labor.
 Before announcing the sentence Judge White reviewed the evidence in the case. He declared that the evidence showed that Borges was no less than "a common and notorious thief"
 The testimony at the trial indicated that the defendant. by false state ments as to the character of the Ubero

Troops of Caucasian Districts Re- beIlious, and Attempt to Purge the Army of Disloyalty
 Seems Hopeless.

ST. PETERSBURG, July 6.--Emper- or Nicholas has taken the almost un- precedented step of publicly directing Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaievitch, commander of the forces in the mili- tary district of St. Petersburg, to in veStigate and take measures to stop the disorders" among the troops.
 Accompanying these instructions were orders relieving Prince Vassilchi- koff, commander of the grand corps, from duty and dismissing in disgrace General Ozeroff, commander of the First guard division, and General Ga- den, commander of the Preobrajensk regiment, the First battalion of which was recently disgraced for expressing sympathy with parliament and protest ing against doing police duty. Gaden is said to be descendant of an Amer ican named Gordon, the name having been Russianized by lapse of time.
 All attempts to purge the army of the spirit of disloyalty. now that it has in- vaded the pampered regiments of the guard, will, however, probably prove futile. No isolation of the troops will any longer suffice to prevent the spread of the contagion While the majority of the troops probably are still faith full, the undermining of the military supports of the government is proceed ing very rapidly. The revolutionists are rejoicing at the success of what they regard as being the final phase of the work of preparing for the coming revolution.
 The gravest news regarding the re- bellious spirit among the troops in the Caucasus continues to arrive here.
 A further extension of the agrarian disorders, accompanied by the burning of manor house, buildings and crops, is reported from the provinces of Pen ga, Kamenetz- Podolsk and Poltava and the districts of Bogoroditsk and At karsk. The zemstvo of the province of Tula is bankrupt, owing to the refusal of the peasants to pay their taxes.
 Riot and mutiny are in progress at vladivostok. A large number of refu- gees have left by steamers, fearing that the town is to be given up to murder and pillage

Mcclellan Hung Tn Emgy.

NEW YORK, July 6.-For many years the residents of the gas house district, in which Charles F. Murphy, the Tammany leader, is all powerful, have made part of their celebration of Independence day the hanging of John Bull in effigy. And the effigy of all that was hateful to the Irish was the target for anything and everything that could possibly be employed as a missile. This year on Wednesday night an effigy of Mayor Mcclellan was hung in Eighteenth street. and the treatment it received differed in nowise from that given to the John Bull of other years.

property, had induced many people to invest in Ubero stock and that they had been defrauded out of large sums of money.
 The Ubero plantation was located In Mexico. It was represented by Borges as yielding large crops of pineapples and other fruit, as well as rubber. Tes. tim0ny was given at the trial that fruit shown to investors as the product of the Mexican plantation had been purchased at city fruit stores.
 The head offlce of the Uhero com pany was in Boston. but the Boston company was affiliated with corpora. tions of a similar nature in which Borges maintained an interest.
 Borges and Owen, who was formerly secretary of state for Indiana. were indicted several months ago on the same charges. Both were accused of larceny in 126 counts and of conspiracy in two counts.

About an hour later the Italians returned, one of them armed with knife and another pistol. One of the jackies received knife thrust in the left side about six inches below the heart. He is seriously hurt.
