PEOPLE CHEATED BY FRAUD LABELS.
SECRETARY WILSON HOT AFTER THE
FOOD AND DRUG MEN.

Washington, ID. G., April 22.-"If these
outrageous misrepresentation do not
cease the department will publish list
bearing the names of manufacturers, who
are indulging iD this campaign of decep-
tior."
T. is remark was uttered by Secretary
Wilson, of the Department of Agricul-
ture, in an authorized statement to-day,
and was brought forth by the fact that
there had come to his knowledge infor-
nation that number of manufacturers
of foods and drugs we're freely advertising
that the United States Government was
guaranteeing their products. The SecEe-
tary said that the serial number and
guarantee required by the pure food and
drug act, TO be placed on food and drug
products, were being used by these man
nfacturers for this purpose.
"The serial number" said Secretary
Wilson, ''is assigned to fix the responsi-
bility, where 1t belongs-upon the manu-
faoturers-and to protect innocent deal.
ers, who have a right, under the law, to
rely upon his guaranty. 1t is the guaran-
tee of the manufacturer, not the guaran-
tee of the Government" .f
The secretary declared that every effort:
would be made by the Department tn put
q atop to these statements.
"Iwill do q little advertising myself,''
be said, sin behalf Of the people. lam
growing tired of seeing these untruthfu1
statements on the advertising pages OF
the magazines, the walls Of the New
York subway, and the advertising space
OF street cars of the principal cities. Man
ufacturers who will deceive the public
about the guaranty will lie about the
quality of their product"
He added that the law was to be ad-
ministered fairly, and that no honest
manufacturer need fear that the depart
rasDt will take 'snap Judgment on him,
or harass him in any way.

Tossed by Bulls Horns.

Chester, April 2l.--Jobn f. Oates, the
popular dairyman, had an adventure with
his Jersey bull Friday afternoon that
might have terminate d very seriously for
Mr.. Oates, bnt for the strength of the
chain with which the animal was teth-
cred. Mr.. Oats was walking through the
lot entirely unconscious of danger, when.
with lupRe, the bull made at him. He
was caught on the horns of the powerful
creature and hurled severel feet, landing
on his left arm and spraining his wrist
severely. The bull attempted to follow
up his attack, but the chain with which
he was fastened held securely and Mr..
Oates, was able to crawl out of danger.
The animal had never before displayed a
vicious temper, and Mr.. Oates was totally
unprepared for the sudden and terrible
attack.
