PRESIDENT GOES AFTER
"BRAiN FOOD" MAKER

washington, March 2l.-fn the matter
of imposing real penalties on the male
factors Of great wealth, President Roose-
welt has undertaken TO demonstrate that
he is for going just as far as the law
will allow when that law is the law
against drugs and medicines.
One Of the wealthiest and most promi-
nent men in Washington. Robert N. Har-
per, manufacturer of patent medicines,
president OF the American National bank.
president of the Chamber of Commerce
of Washington, heavy owner and opera
tor in real estate, and putative millionaire.
has been convicted in police court of yio-
lating the pure food law. 1t is charged
that Harper made and sold, at great profit.
a brain food" and also a headache cure"
composed OF alcohol, acetaniline. anti
pyrine, caffeine and bromides, its proper
lions which hopelessly violated the pure
food laws terms. Harper made a long
and determined fight, the trial occupying
sixteen days in police court, and experts
from all over the country testifying. When
ii was over the jury found a verdict of
guilty. !
The president at once Instructed Dis
trict Attorney Baker hat he wanted Har-
per put in jail If IL were possible. Jail
or a fine might be imposed. The limit
of the law, in fine, would mean nothing

the violators of this law. Harper is the
first man convicted of violating the law.
and Jail is the only sentence which the
president believes will serve the purpose
of inspiring proper respect for the law.

ne SIES STORM CARS:
NlCKElS NO GOOD

Chicago. March 21.-There was re-
ncWal of rioting OF Wabash avenu last
night when newsboys made a second
attempt to storm the pay as you en-
ter cars of the Chicago City Railway
company. At a signal, several score OF
boys attempted to board one of the new
cars. The guards perched themselves
on the rail separating the entrance and
exit doors of the cars and attempted
to kick the boys who rushed OF the
lower step. Several boys were thrown
off in this fashion, but others caught
the feet of the guards and dragged
them either to the platform or into the
street. Some of the newsboys grasped
hG>.vy granite paving blocks from piles
near the curbing and with these weap-
n pounding the toes of the company's
employees. The ARRAY attracted crowds
of spectars who watched the success
Sive struggles rs each "a eaCh Mad
ison street from the elevated railway
structure.
II was when the press became so
thick that the progress of the cars was
threatened that the police were called.
The latter confined their efforts to keep
ing he way clear, but arrested three
n~ewsboys who were seemingly too slow
in executing orders.
The trouble is due to an order of
officials of the city railway company
forbidding the vending of papers on
the new cars. The front platforms of
these cars are SO constructed hat they
can be used for xxi purposes only,
and the company officials claim that the
constant boarding and debarking of the
boys interferes with the schedules and
reduces the efficacy of the car service.
The company was asked by circulation
agents of various newspapers to enter
into some agreement whereby the fares
of the boys would be paid. This was
refused and the agents therelpon told
the boys to offer cash fares. The con-
ductors on the lines in question were
instructed to refuse the fares n the
circulation agents hen determined to
test the question by forcing the COM
pany to abandon it's stand. Counsel
has been engaged to represent the ar
rested boys I'm court when their cases
come to trial.

BUCHANAN GETS
GOOD APPOINTMENT

Washington. March 20.-The selec-
ton OF VIM. j. Buchanan, formerly OF
Sioux City, as head of the United
States committee on Panaman rela-
lions, is regarded as the highest honor
yet paid the Iowan, who long has been
known as the most popular diplomat
who ever served In South America.
1t is likely the selection will be
followed by the establishment of o
permanent bureau here in charge OF
Mr.. Buchanan TO promote closer rela-
tons among the countries OF the three
Americas.
An international railroad north and
south through South America, financed
by the government and to connect witt
the Mexican and United States sys-
TENS is part of the gigantic scheme
Secretary Root wants promoted. He al
SC favors international subsidies for
steamship lines between North and
South American points.
Mr.. Buchanan will become the chief
promoter under Secretary Root who
really selected him for the head OF
the commission of these big enter
prises and others designed to bring
closer union Of all American interests.

connection with the burial Of one of its
bravest n most faithful servants,
Joseph A. Walker, the secret service
;.Sent who was slain on the grounds of
the Porter Fuel company while max
ing Investigations of land frauds.
The department of justice, acting on
the advice of the United States attor-
ney general, has disallowed the claim
approximating $500 incurred I'm the re-
moval of the body of Walker to Denver
and for the funeral services.
Statutory reasons are given for the
refusal. The strict letter of the law is
adhered to in spite of the fact many OF
the highest officials in the land at
tempt to have the rules ignored owing
to the tragic circumstances of the kill
ing OF Walker, the added reason that
the officer had been sent to a place
where it was afterwards judicially de-
clared by Judge Lewis that he should
never have been sent, and was in the
performance of duties undertaken upon
government Instructions.

ATTORNEY GENERAL OF
new YORK IS CHARGED
WITH MALFEASANCE
Conduct of William jackson
Toward Failed Banks
Will Be Probcd.

Albany, ". Y, March Eth the Leg
islature Senator Martin Sake, OF New
York. introduced a concurrent resolu-
ton providing for a Legislative inves-
attorney general of the state during the
administration of the incumbent, Will
lam Schuyler Jackson. OF Buffalo. and
especially with reference TO receiver
ships of banks and trust companies.
Mr.. Jackson was elected on the demo-
neutrality-suspicious. league tick in
November, 1906, and has been in office
since January /, 1907.
The general impression about the
capitol is that the resolution will be
adopted.
The essential paragraph of the res
olution recites that during the present
panic a large number of financial inSti-
tutions in New York city were COM
PEELED to suspend and that it has been
widely charged that the office of at
torney general has been used by Mr..
Jackson and his subordinates TO pre-
vent resumption of solvent banks and
trust companies; that he has procured
the appointment OF political favorites
as receivers of such institutions, and
that by corrupt practices in the at
torney generals office the present
financial depression and distress have
been prolonged"
Senator SAKE introduced the resolu-
ton at the instance OF certain bankers
in New York city.
In Own Defense.
New York, March 2l.-Attorney Cen
eral Jackson said he would welcome in
vestigation of his Office conducted in an
impartial manner, without personal
feeling or any consideration Of politics.
The attorney general said further:
Not one bank closed which did not
do so of it's own accord. Where /
thought the banks were able to open
l nave assisted them. Every act of
mine has been directly or primarily in
the interests of depositors or directed
the prevention of the footing of
the institutions. That can be easily,
demonstrated by Legislative inquiry"
