Majority 31S
The Citizens ticket carried in the
districts above the tracks where there
IS none but the strictly American vote,
while the opposition carried the lower
precincts with the Mexican vote.
Precincts 1 to inclusive are south

It is very clear just how and where
the ring" piled up its majorities for
Harper, Irwin and Winter-among the
Mexicans who vote as they are ordered
to do, and not upon any free and intel
ligent choice. The free and intelligent
voter on Saturday was evidently in IA
vor of the Citizens ticket.

RoRAx IN ICE CREAM CONES
GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATION
Prosecutions Against Manufacturer
Are to Be Instituted

Washington, July Prosecutions
against manufa cturers of ice cream
cones containing borax are TO be in
stituted by the government under the
pure food law.
Large seizures OF cones were made
recently in different parts OF the coun-
try by inspectors of the department
of agriculture. Analysis Of the cones
seized disclosed the presence OF boraE
a property which has been held to be
deleterious TO the human stomach.
The cones, chemically tested, were
found to contain also saccharine and
benzoate of soda, but it was said at
the department today that proposed
prosecutions would be based solely
on the presence of borax, ina srnuch az
saccahrine stll was under investiEu-
ton and bensoate of soda had been
held to be harmless when swallowed
in small quantities.
Inspectors will continue to make
seizures wherever cones are found
containing borax. Manufacturer US
ing borax contend that this ingredient
is necessary to make the cones hold
their shape.
So popular have Ice cream cones
become throughout the country. es-
peciallyF among newsboys and street
urchins. that the manufacture OF conan
has become a thriving enterprise.
Originally, according 70 ofhelals OF
the government. much better material
was used in making the cones, but
there was a demand for cheap cones.

MARYLAND MAN TOOK THE
LAW INTO HIS OWN HANDS
Because of Attempted Criminal As
saults Upon Two of His Family.

Baltimore, July 2O.-Taking the law
into his own hands because of at
tempted criminal assaults upon two of
his family within three days Charles
Smith this morning shot and instantly
killed Eugene Lathe. He then walked
sto the Mount Winans police station,
nearby and told his story. The kill
ing TO owed closely upon an attempt
to assault Mrs. Smith within a short
distance of her home, near Clifford
Station. Baltimore county.
Last Sunday, Dora Smiths fourteen
year old daughter, was the victim of
a similar attemnt about half a mile
from her home, her cries bringing her
father to her rescue. Charged with
this crime. William Kennedy is now
in Jail at Towson.
The girl, who ha1 not been seriously
hurt, this morning asked her mother
If she might go to a nearby thicket
for blackberries With Sundays crime
in mind Mrs. Smith cautioned her not
to go out of sight. She did wander
from view, however, and the mother
went in search of her. AS Mrs Smith
entered the thicket, a man seized her,
attempting to drag her into adjacent
woods. She fought him off success
fully and retured home. In pointing
out the scene of the affair, Mrs. Smith
saw Lathe lingering there and told
her husband. Smith, arming himself
with a shotgun, approached Lathe
who ran. Smith fired and Lathe fell.
Physicians say his heart and lungs
were peppered with shot and that he
could not have lived more than ten
minutes

RUSSO JAPANESE PACT
A BLOW TO AMERICA.
Chinese Press Urges an Alliance With
the United States.

Pekin, July 2O.-Announcing an early
reply to Japan and Russia the semi
official press states that China will
protest against the new combination of
these two powers as endangering not
only the rights of China but the equal
opportunity rights of the other powers
guaranteed to them by China's treaties.
With significant unanimity the lead
ing papers, which heretofore have been
compelled to avoid discussion of the
new agreement, now pronounce it to be
manifestly aimed against America and
Germany as well as against China.
They assert that Great Britain pro-
NOTED it for the purpose of halting the
American advance in Manchuria and
forming practically a quadruple alli-
ance against Germany in Asia and
Europe.
They argue that China's only hope
lies in the closest relations-an alliance
if possible-with America and Ger
many.
They charge that Japan's action is
wilful violation of the provisions of
the secret protocol upon which Japan
claimed the right to veto the Hsinmfn-
tun-Fak kumen railway, since in the
protocol Japan is pledged not to nego-
tiate with Russia relative to railways
without first consulting China and in
viting China's participation in the ne
gotiations.
A section of the japanese press de-
clares the agreement contains twelve
articles in addition to those published
