Another order was secured to forbid
the police judge opening the sealed
packages, and after days of argument
Superior Judge f. j. Murasky took
under adyisement an application for an
order adjudging Assistant District At
torney F. J. Heney and two detectives
who participated in the raids guilty OF
contempt of court
Detectives Are TWo-Faced
No end of complication has been
created through the activity of private
detectives, several of whom are ad-
mitted to have been privately In the
employ of one side while secretly fur
nishing information to the other.
A fortnight was added to the length
of the proceedings by the testimony of
John H. Helms, once detective in the
employ of the United Railroads, who
was later secretly added to the force
of Burns to obtain evidence of alleged
Illegal activity on the part of United
Railroad agents.
Helms testified he had paid Platt and
other Burns men to secure papers and
had turned them over to Abbott. Prior
to his appearance as witness, he
charged, several attempts We're made to
prevent his testifying for the proseeu-
tion. Another Burns agent produced
in court sums aggregating $3.50, which
he alleged had been paid him by Lu-
ther G. Brown to betray secrets of tho
district attorneys office One of the
witnesses called during the trial was
Rudolph Spreckels, president of the
First National bank, who instituted
the graft prosecution by undertaking
to pay the expenses involved. The tes-
timony presented showed that q fund
of 1924, 900 had been raised and expend-
ed, and Mr.. Spreckels' accounts, volun-
tarily produced in court showed that
he had contributed approximately $175,-
600 Of the total.

SIX MEDIUMS
ARE ARRESTED
CHARGED WITH OPERATING
WITHOUT LICENSES
Appearance of County Officers Has
No Effect on Camp Meeting
at Seml-Tropio
Park

Six mediums and workers of the
SpirituaIist camp meeting at Semi
Tropic park, at the end Of the Edendale
car line. were arrested by representa-
tives of the district attorneys office
yesterday afternoon, charged with vio-
1ating the county ordinance in giving
sittings and collecting admission fees
without licenses. Mrs. Sanford john
son, Prof l.. M. Norris, Mrs. Bell How
erton and Mrs. Nettie Howell were at
Semi Tropic park, where the warrants
were read to them by S. L. Browne.
John Slater was arrested at his room
at the Chula Vista apartments on
West Third street by Constable Jack
johnson. Mrs. Weeks Wright, who is
the Oldest medium in the country, was
not taken into custody, because of her
extreme age, but was notified to appear
before Justice Ling at 10 o'clock to-
morrow morning.
Mr.. Slater gave the constable a cash
bond of $3.50 The others, with the
exception of Mrs. Wright, appeared be-
fore Justice r. A Ling late yesterday
afternoon and were released on bonds
of $3.50 each, signed by Charles White
side, P. A. B. Kennedy and Mrs. Net
tie Howell. The Spiritualists assert that
the move was inspired by spite work
against their principles. and that they
will test the question through the
courts.
Mediums Act CooIIy
The appearance Of the officers at the
camp meeting was entirely unexpected,
but the mediums concerned took it
cody, and the spectators in the au-
ditorium hall watching the lyceum drill
of the children knew nothing of the
coolly, and the spectators in the au-
automobile, accompanied by woman
detective who had collected the evi-
dence inspiring the arrests, who point
ed out the persons wanted.
Mrs. johnson and Mrs. Howerton had
left the grounds, but were overtaken
by Detective Browne in front of their
cottages. The fact that the arrests
We're taade Saturday afternoon caused
considerable delay in getting hold of
the bondsmen, and another wait after

PURE 8, IAN
IS UNDiR FIRE
LOOKS AS. IF THE BEEF TRUST
WERE BEHIND THE MOVE
MADE BY EGG COMPANY.
Beef Trust is Large User of Food
Personalities and is Interested
in Selling Spoiled Product.
WASHINGTON,

WASHINGTON, June 25.-The
opening gun in what is regarded here
as a final desperate effort to set aside
the pure food law will be fired, when
suit is brought in the Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia against
James Wilson, Secretary of Agricult-
ure. The suit will be instituted in the
name of the Hipolite Egg Company,
St Louis corporation, but it is init
bmated that the Beef Trust and other
large users of food preservatives in
food are behind the litigation.
The object of the suit, which will
be filed by Charles Summers, st. Louis
attorney and leading counsel for the
Hipolite Egg Company, is to obtain an
injunction against Secretary Wilson
and the Department of Agriculture
preventing them from further inter-
ference with the plaintiffs business.
The litigation is the result of seiz-
ure in Peoria, ILL.,, last March If can
ned eggs that had been preserved by
the use of boric acid.
The fact that the Hipolite Company
is merely the agent of other and much
more wealthy concerns is indicated
in the wording of the bill of complaint.
After naming his client, Mr.. Summers
adds that the suit is filed Gin behalf
of all other persons and parties in in
terest who may care to join in this
proceeding and who plaintiff states
are too numerous to be specifically
mentioned herein"
The attorney declines to divulge the
names of these clients who keep in the
background.
The pure food bill is declared in the
bill to be unconstitutional because it
gives to the Federal Government the
police regulating power delegated un-
der the Constitution to the several
states. In addition it is set forth that
under the constitution congress can
only grant regulating powers and can
not DELICATE probationary power to
any department of the general govern
ment. Another argument against the
validity of the law is that congress
cannot delegate to heads of execu-
| tive departments the right to make
rules and regulations under a gen
eral law.
The liquid egg mixture involved in
the dispute, its manufactures declare,
is not used as direct food but is util-
lied by bakers and confectioners. The
company declares it uses between one
and two per cent of boric acid to each
5-gallon can of its mixture, that this is
reduced to an infinitesimal percent
age when the mixture is included in
other materials, and that the addition
of the acid is not only not injurious
but is decided food addition.
The evident desire of the other
plaintiffs connected with the suit not
to figure openly in it is attributed to
tfeir fear of publicity. The beet
packing concerns have been striving
to regain the heavy export business
they lost when their method of pre-
serving their meat products was ex.
posed. Boric acid was one Of the chief
preservatives used oy III, packing

THEY DON'T SAY 1T.

What some Democrats ot
Shenandoah county say" is the
misleading caption to an inspired
editorial IN the "HarriSonburg
Times" of the 21st. There are
several remarkable things about
this effusion.
First, the Democrats did not
say it.
Secondly, as usual it is full of
glarlng errors. 1t charges Mr..
Brumback with being the ma
chine candidate for the legisla-
ture, when in fact rour caridates
presented their names to the
Committee, authorized to name
candidate for the Legislature.
and Mr.. Brumback was only Sc
lected after a number of ballots
had been taken.
This article further states that
his nomination was made in a
certain law office. when the
writer if he desired to state the
facts, knew full we'll that the
committee met in the Court
House. The Courty Committee
appointed a subcommittee, all
thorized TO receive names and Sc
lect a candidate. F. II. Brura-
back is that candidate regularly
chosen. The difference between
Bowman's and Brumback's Sc
lection is this: Bowman is the
irregular candidate Of a rump
convention, called by seven out
of twenty eight committee men
dominated by a group of Office
Seekers.
Nj. H.,Hottel was the regular
nominee of the Republican party,
a fact which he states in his
card of withdrawal. He was
nominated by convention of
representative republicans, called
by a majority of the committee.
and this was so recognized by
the Republican State Convention
held at Newport News. This
then would make Z. B. Bowman
and independent candidate and
no loyal republican is obligated
to vote for him. X.
