Revenue Men Say Martin,
Accused of Conspiracy,
Is Head of Trade.
OPERATES FROM N. j.
Former Federal Agent Himself, He
Is Said 10 Have Escaped Many
Traps Laid For HINT is Hoped
That His Indictment and Arrest
VIII Stop the Traffic.

Jersey City N. j., May 29.-By the
arrest of o. s. Martin, manager of
the plant of Braun & Fits, of No.
52-54 Hudson street Jersey City, on
charge of conspiracy, the United
States revenue officials believe they
have struck severe blow against
the Illicit coloring of oleomargarine
in New Jersey for New York con-
sumption. Martin was placed under
heavy bail and will be brought to
trial during the June term of the
United States District Court in New
Jersey.
Martin has long been regarded by
the revenue officials as the chief of
the New Jersey oleomargarine trade,
and is said by them to have con-
trived several methods of handling
the product so as to evade the rev.
enue laws. a former revenue official
himself and acquainted with the
methods of the federal agents, Mar
tin has esceped from several traps
set for him by the revenue men.
His indictment followed the ar
rest of Charles C. Clement, of No.
so Seventh avenue Guttenburg, n.
j., on a charge of manufacturing and
selling colored oleomargarine with
out license. Clement had a large
plant, and is known to have owned
at least two distributing wagons in
New York and New Jersey. A raid
was made on his plant by the rev.
enue men and the product confs-
Gated
Find Consignment on Pier.
Soon after the arrest of Martin
the revenue agents found a consign-
ment for Hartford, Conn, of $500
pounds of colored oleomargarine on
Pier 20, East River. The fifty tubs
did not bear the revenue stamps of
ten cents a pound, but as the names
of both consignor and consignee
were fictitious no arrests were made.
The consignment was confiscated.
Martin went to Jersey City from
Chicago as manager of the Braun &
Fits establishment several years
ago. His first clash with the fed
eral authorities came some time ago,
when he invented capsules Of color
Ing matter. which were sold with
orders of uncolored oleomargarine.
The restaurant keepers or spall
merchants could stir this dye into
the oleomargarine before placing on
sale, and thus evade the heavy tax
on the colored imitation butter.

'Oh, you needn't think I am crazy
snapped the a with asperity. II car
see that you don't believe what I tell
you. Wouldn't like to bet some
thing hat it is broken?"
Sure" said Joe soothingly. Sure
thing. I'll bet you a million dollars"
mo, I wouldn't want to bet so mucn
as that, but let's bet the drinks all

"All right, let's answered Joe, ready

The stranger took him by the arm
and led him around to the mirror,
Then taking a bottle Of tuTpentine anc
a rag out of his pocket he went after
those cracks, and in 1--WE minutes had
the glass as clean as a whistle. The
cracks weren't anything but paint.
That was our introduction to Uly. He
passed around some cards on which
was printed:
"Uiysus Rutherford Dunno, Artist
Gentlemen" says he, 81 ave come
to your little town with the intention
of making it my future home. l am, by
profession, an artist, as my work on
the mirror will testify. I took the
liberty of painting those cracks when
the room happened to be empty, just TO
demonstrate my ability. In a few days
I will open a studio here, where I will
be prepared to do portrait, landscape,
and pastoral paintings; signs, let
tering, and SO forth"
And SO 1t was that lily settled down
in our midst. He wasn't a bad sort OF
citizen either. Curious, as all geniuses
are, but a right good fellow and jovial.
He had a dozen brushes tina he used
to carry in his vest pocket. Curious
contraptions they were, about a foot
long, hollow and filled with different
coiored paints. Worked something like
fountain pens.
And how tina fellow could paint.
Anything you wanted, didn't make any
difference what, he'd paint it.
Painted a head Of hair on Lutte
Pages bald pate that was SO natural
everybody thought he had a wig on.
The colored barber tried to comb it n

night.
There was a fellow named Jimmy
Nolan lived here hose days. Jimmy
organized a football team among the
town boys and used to take 'em around
the State playing other teams for gate
receipts and occasionally a mall side
bet.
The year lily came Nolan had the
crack team of the State. Everywhere
went they registered a victory,
and they were playing everything
that came along.
The whole town vas interested in
that team and mighty proud of it, I
can tell you. Used to meet them at
the train with a brass band and haul
them up thsough Main Street in the
