Physician to Investigate.

According to s. V. Hayden, attorney for
J. Arthur Kemp, former chief and prop
erty clerk of the Police Department, who
is under indictment for embezzlement and

dergo trial at this time without serious

severe form OF neuTesthenia. He is rest
less. Dr.. hewitt sets forth, and suffers
from insomnia and mental instability, and

from Assistant District Attorney Turner,
who stated he was anxious 10 dispose OF
the case before the summer recess Of the
court.
Justice Barnard declined to set a date
for trial, awaiting the report Of an in
vestigation Of Kemp's physical condition

OHIO FLOUR SEIZED
Government Takes Excep-
tiOns to Sack Labels.
JUSTICE SIGNS THE WARRANT
Point Raised Is that False state
ments Were Contained on the
saeks-FIour Handle by Two Wash.
tngton Firms Alleged to Have Been
Misbranded and OF Inferior Quality.

The Department OF Agriculture has
brought another important case into court
in connection with the administration Of
the pure-food law. misbranding being
charged in connection with 1,44O sacks of
-four milled in Ohio.
Assistant District Attorney Stuart Nc
Namara, upon information furnished by
the department, yesterday appeared be-
fore Justice Barnard. holding District
Court, and fled a libel on the flour. and
the justice signed a warrant OF arrest.
This was placed in the hands Of deputy
marshal. who went to the freight yard of
the Pennsylvania Railroad and seized the
cars which contained the -four.
The point raised is an interesting one.
It relates to alleged false statements on
the sacks. and no charge is made that the
goods are impure in any way.
Manufactured I'm Ohio.
The flour is manufactured in Orrville.
Ohio, by the Orrvilie Mining Company,
and 24O sacks bear the following label.
Paragon Minnesota. Cream Roller Pro-
cess. Sole agents, F. G. Swain & Sons,
Washington, d. G.
The libel charges that from this label
the natural inference is that the -four was
ground OF wheat grown in Minnesota. and
that 1t was Minnesota -four. This -four.
it is stated, is vastly superior to others.
and the -four libeled upon is ordinary
-four ground out of Ohio winter wheat.
which is an inferior wheat TO that grown
In Minnesota.
The libel on the 1900 sacks charges that
the label gave the impression that the
-four was the product Of the firm whose
name appeared thereon. when. as a mat
ter OF fact, It was manufactured by the
OrryIlle Milling Company. This label is
as follows: "Cereta high-gTada patent
-four. The Sanitary Grocery Company.

SCHOOLS NEED ALTERATIONS.
FireproOf Structures Recommended
for Several Buildings.


That four schools, the KeniIworth,
Brookland. Brightwood. and Takoma-
now provided with wooden stairways be
replaced by iron freproof ones, Is recon-
mended to Commissioner MacfarIand by
Chief Belt, Of the fire department.
Two other buildings, the Langdon and
the annex to the Petworth school, are
brought TO the attention Of Commissioner
Macfarland. But as both are frame
structures their safety would not be
helped by the installing Of hreproof stair
ways
To date Chief Belt has inspected lS7
schools. IN some Of these he says car
penter shops and cooking schools are
maintained, and Is OF the opinion that
this class OF schools should be held only
in buildings specially constructed for the
purpose.
