WAR ON PATENT MEDICINES.
Experts Making Preparations for Wig
OrOus Campaign.

WASHINGTON, July 17.-Medical
experts OF the department of agricul-
ture today began preparations for
making a widespread warfare on pat
ent medicines and proprietary arti-
cles. A test case, resulting from the
seizure of a large stock of medical
and toilet preparations from a Wash
ington department store, will decide
the success or failure of the move
ment. The goods seized were main
ly the products of well known man
ufacturer of identifying" prepar-
ations. This concern has engaged
attorneys to fight the case, and will
have the assistance of many other
similar companies.
1t is alleged by the government ex-
perts that the articles are misbranded
in violation of the pure food act and
are liable to condemnation and con-
flscation, for the reason that the
packages and labels bear certain
statements regarding the drugs
which are false and misleading
is to say, that certain fertilizer tab
lets" are "a specific for curing flatu-
lency and all gastric troubles and
are "a cure for obesity" and said
statements" continues
the libel, ARE false and misleading
in this, that the said aforementioned
drug is not specific for curing fat
ulency and gastric troubles and is
not cure for obesity" The blush
of Youth" preparation is declared
misbranded in that it does not re-
store the complexion to chiIdlike pur-
ity, and the Excelsior Skin Food" is
declared not to be food for the skin,
and both are therefore misbranded
in violation of the pure food act
The mixtures seized are known as
the Madame Yale" preparations.
The department of agriculture in
tends to make a test case of the seiz-
ure. 1t is the first of its kind under
the law.

NO STRIKE EXPECTED
OPERATORS CONDITIONS, HOW

Al investigation of the telegraph and
telephone companies of the country. with
a view, to securing information that will
begun by the Department of Commerce
and Labor, under the direction of Com
missioner of Labor Nell, but the .investi-
CATION will not be undertaken for several
weeks.
The La Toilette resolution, passed by
the Senate shortly before adjournment
directs such an investigation to be made
during the recess. and calls for a report
to that body by next December.
Secretary Straus of the Department of
Commerce and Labor has referred the
resolution to- the bureauof labor. The whole
matter now rests with Mr.. Neill. We're
it not that his hands are full with other
pressing business connected with the bu-
reau. Mr.. Neill would begin the investiga-
ton at once.
In presenting the resolution last spring,
Senator, La Toilette said he had informa-
ton from a reliable private source that
the telegraphers of the country were con-
templatinS another strike, such tied
up business last summer and fall. He
had reason to believe. he said. that If the
general government would undertake TO
look into the affairs of the companies and
tbei- relations with their employees that
this strike might he averted. He thought
resS. the telephone companies might as
wei be looked into also.
The resolution. was adopted unanimously
and without any discussion.
So far can be learned the officials of
the Department OF Commerce and Labor
are not aware that there is danger of an
other telegraphers strike i'll the near
future
