OUTLINE MANY EVILS
That Menace PubIic's. Welfare IN
Legislation Against Roads
Fund Of $1,5oo,ooo to Fight
Industrial Oppression.

New York, May 21,-The Manufac
turers' association today placed itsell
on record by the adoption of the re
port OF the committee ON interes ate
commerce. opposing any compulsory
reduction in rates of transportation Of
passengers by railroads The com
mittee expressed the opinion that any
such reduction would be accompanied
by an increase in freight tates.
| "We see in the movement an in
direct attack on public interests
says the report. 1T is not proved that
railroads could afford to make a gem
eral reduction OF the kind, uncom-
pensated by higher freight charges
or increased income from some other
source or cutting down service. 1t
is alleged that some of them would
be thrown into bankrup cy, a point
difficult to test for anyone but an
experienced accountant, and for that
very reason unsuited for arbitrary
decision by legislators unfamiliar
with railway affairs, after half inyes
tigation.
Many Evils of Lower Rates.
1T is probable hat some main lines
between great centers of population
can carry passengers at two cents a
mile, but it is certain that many
branch lines could not meet the costs
of passenger traffic at that rate.
Again. not only must the present con-
dition Of railway service suffer deteri-
Grafton. If roads are compelled to
economic by too severe cut Ia pas
senger rates, but the same cause
must operate as a serious bar to i'm
pfeyements and extensions.
f"Finally the effect Of such legisla
ton would be the lowering Of value
OF railroad property, practically
amounting to confiscation, thus dis
roilraging enterprise in another way
by rendering more uncertain the re-
ward of its application to transporta-
ton"

At Cape Breton there are immense
Colleries being worked under the
ocean. These submarine mines cover
thousand acres, and are being in

tered at the shore, and the operators

The bed of the ocean is as tight as

made canvass Of the accidents in

were killed by revOlvers when were
supposed to be unloaded. and with
the deadly giant firecrackers. New
York furnished seven of the dead.
while the remainder of the list Of
fatalities are scattered over the coun-

In the list of injured many were
seriously hurt and a number will un'
doubtedly die of their injuries. The
greater number of injuries were
caused by the cannon firecracker and
this list is made up in a great part OF

THERE is A REASON.
The Medical Times Explains Why
Doctors Oppose Patent Medicines.

The Medical Times for April in a
moment of frankness explains the
whole opposition of physicians to pat
ent' medicines which are taken with
out a prescription, in the following
words:
I'VE will hardly repeat here the
specific statement to the effect that
in one year $62,0OO,000 has been ex
pended on patent medicines in the
United States. Enough to give every
practitioner in the country yearly
income of $4,000 In the face of such
facts as these, all talk of love of hui
manity, altruism, self-abnegation and
the like becomes cheap and nauseat.
ing. 1t appears to us that such bun
combe should give place to homely
common sense"
Reliable authority states that the
gross amount of the patent medi-
cine business is about $4,000, 900 in
stead of $62,000,000 but taking the
Medical Times figures as correct they
represent an outlay of considerably
cation. The cost of doctors fees eX-
elusive of medicines except such as
are dispensed for the same period,
probably was approximately $230,000,-
600 This is reached by allowing an
average income of $4,000 to each of
the $4,000 physicians in the United
States. Even allowing that gross
business of $62,000,000 is to be divid-
ed between $4,000 physicians the in
come of each would not be increased
more than $40.

MILITIA IS RIOTOUS
South Carolina and Kentucky Regi-
ments at jamestown Exposition
Become Obstreperous.
DRUNK AND DISORDERLY
To the Number of 500 They Attempt
ed to Take Charge of the "War-
path"-lnjured in the
Clash.

Norfolk, Va, July 5.-Five hundred
soldiers, members of the Second
South Carolina and First kentucky
regiments in camp at the jamestown
exposition grounds "Wednesday ran
amuck there, interfered with conces-
sions, attempted to take possession
of several shows on The Warpath'
and when the powhattan guards
interviewed, riot followed, several
men being injured. The injured in
clude:
Joseph Brdsher, Company o, Ken
lucky regiment, probable fracture OF
skull from blow with black jack;
Powhattan Guard Preas, elbow cut,
fingers on right hand dislocated and
face beaten; Captain Carpenter of
Powhattan guards, struck in the
breast with stone; Adiutant Garwood,
guard, Kentucky and several others
suffered slight wounds.
Earlier in the night some of the
soldiers who had been drinking be-
came disorderly and were repeatedly
cautiond by the guards. Later when
their number had increased TO about
300 they threw aside all constraint
and proceeded to the Warpath, ignor-
ing doorkeepers, declining to pay
admission fees and refusing to leave
the buildings when ordered out. The
Temple of Mirth, Beauty Show and
Streets of Cairo were the principal
sufferers. At the last named place
about Is Powhattan guards attempted
to restore order. but were forced to
use their sabres to beat the men back.
Captain Carpenter and Adiutant Gar
wood at the head of the guards sue
ceeded in eiecting the men. but the
soldiers soon returned. Their num-
Der had been increased to 500 They
again attempted TO take charge OF
the shows, refusing to be disciplined.
G. C. Hastings of Company II, Ken
lucky, and j. Thompkins of Company
d, South Carolina. were arrested as
the ringleaders of the rioting.
The arrests caused demonstration
and with drawn sabres the guards
were forced TO fight their way through
the massed soldiers to the guard camp.
They kept their prisoners despite Ell
forts of the soldier to rescue them.
Behind the wire fence of the camp
the guards made stand against the
crowd,
The soldiers hurled rocks into the
enclosure. Captain Carpenter and Ad-
iutant GarwoOd were struck. Guard
Preas. who saw the man who threw
the rock that hit Carpenter arrested
the asuailant, whose Infatuated
friends Immediately attacked Preas,
beat him and rescued his prisoner The
rescue was not affected, however,
until after the prisoner, Brasher, had
been blackjacked by the guard
Brasher was placed in rolling
chair and sent TO the exposition hos
pital He was later arrested there by
the Powhattan guarsd, but could not
be removed owing to his condition.
The guards we're later reinforced by
detachments of soldiers from the camp
and order was restored.

The extraordinary popularity OF fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch a matter of great i'm
portance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe to use on fine

makes half the usual quantity of Starch
necessary, with the result Of perfect
finish. equal to that when the goods
