FOUND NITROUS ACID.
Princeton Professor Testifies Regard
ing Bleached Flour Analysis.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 13.-More
government witnesses were heard in
the bleached -four case in the federal
court here today in support of the
charge that the process of bleaching
flour adulterates and impairs its food
value.
Among the witnesses who will tes-
tify for the government are professors
from Harvard, Pennsylvania university
and other eastern colleges.
John w. Freeman. a baker of Kala-
mazoo, Mich, said bread made from
unbleached -four had a better flavor
than that made from the bleached and
that when bleached flour was used a
larger portion of flour must be used to
get a given volume of bread than when
unbleached flour was used.
George Hulett, professor of physical
and electrical chemistry at Princeton.
testified that he analyzed a sample of
the flour seized by the government
which forms the basis of this case and
found nitrous acid in it.

POLITICS FOR REVENUE.
Severely Assailed by Clifford Pinchot
at st. Paul.

st. Paul, June 13.-Gifford Pinchot,
ex-chief forester, friend and confident
of ex-President Roosevelt, brandished
the "big stick over the special inter-
ests Saturday night, castigated con-
gress, roasted machine politics, ap-
plauded insurgency and preached a
sermon on Rooseveltian principles be-
fore the Roosevelt club of this city.
Mr.. Pinchot began with defiance
to those who sought to belittle con-
servation and ended with a philippe
against unclean politics for revenue
only
Because the special interests are in
politics, we, as nation, have lost faith
in congress-" he declared. This is
a serious statement to make, but it is
true. 1t does not apply, of course, to
the men who really represent their
constituents and who are making so
fine fight for conservation. AS soon
as these men have won their battle
and consolidated their victory conf
dence in congress will return
But, in the meantime, the people
of the United States believe that as
a whole the senate and house no long
er represent the voters by whom they
were elected, but the special interests
by whom they are controlled. Ihey
believe so because they have so often
seen congress reject what the people
desire and instead what the inter-
ests demand. And of this there could
he no better illustration than the tar
iff."
Continuing, Pinchot nominated Sem
ator Nelson w. Aldrich, titular head
of the senate, for membership in the
Undesirable Citizens club" declaring
that "at the very time the duties on
manufactured rubber were raised the
leader of the senate in company with
the Guggenheim syndicate was organ
izine an international rubber trust
whose charter made it almost hold
ing company for the coal and copper
deposits of the world"
Here are some paragraphs Iroii
Pinchots speech:
"Morality has broken into politics.
1.-The brand of politics served out
TO us by the professional politician has
long been composed largely OF not
meals for the interests and hot air
for the people.
"Clay hardens by immobility-men's
minds by standing pat
"It is a greater thing to be a good
citizen than to be a good republican
or a good Democrat.
1.-The motto in every election should
he: No Watchdogs of the Interests
Need Apply -,
"Political platforms are not sincere
statements of what the leaders OF
nartv really believe, but rather forms
of words which those leaders think
thev can get others to believe they be-
lieve.
"The special interests must get out
q fpolitics or the American people will
nut them out of business.

WAGSTAFF IS HERE.
Candidate Says That His Meetings
Have Been Enthusiastic.

Tom Wagstaff stopped off at Topeka
this morning and left for Manhattan
where he will speak tonight, on noon
train. He came up from Independ-
ence, where he spent Sunday with his
family. This is the end of round
one'' for Wagstaff, who has Just nm
ished a three weeks trip, during
which he spoke in twelve counties IN
the Sixth congressional district; four
counties in the Fifth and three in the
Fourth. Mr.. Wagstaff is looking well
and has gained in weight since he
opened his campaign.
In discussing his trip ard prospects,
Mr.. Wagstaff said today:
"At each place I spoke the meetings
were good and, really, the newspaper
accounts 1 have seen of the meetings
have not done them justice, either as
to attendance or enthusiasm man1A
tested. One noticeable feature, pleas
ing to me- was the fact that at each
town visited where Governor Stubbs
had preceded me, I found ex-Stubbs
supporters enthusiastic for me who
We're with him until they heard him
speak. MY friends in the southeast
part ofsthe state suggested that l l
should not be disheartened If touno
sentiment on the west side strong TOT
Governor Stubs, as the governor and
his friends have repeatedly claimed
that section of the state to me particu-
larly strong in support of his candi-
pleased to find in every town ana
county L visited in the Fifth and Sixth
districts that instead of the tide run
ming in favor of Governor StuDDs IL is
running against him. This is partlcu-
larly true among farmers Repeated
ly / was informed this side of the
state is all right for you,' and then
inquiry would be made as to conditions
| on the east side.
"How about the claim Governor
alyA
will carry Montgomery county?
st spent Sunday with my family at
| Independence and as soon as my
friends heard that was at home they
began to get busy with the telephone
| to assure me that Montgomery county
will give me a splendid majority al
the primary election. This claim that
| I will lose my own county, in the light
of the fact that my friends came to
Topeka to attend the conference IN a
special train, and the assurances L re
ceived while at home yesterday, really
| is a joke"
When asked what he thought of the
general political condition all over the
state, Mr.. Wagstaff said:
ssIt looks to me like an upheaVaI.
| I am merely an incident in move
ment to restore control of the Repub-
| lican party in Kansas to hands that
are unuuestionably loyal to the pr1n-
ciples of Republicanism.
ST am absolutely satisfied with the
situation generally. Everywhere i
have found Republicans enthusiastic
| and confident that our movement is
gaining strength every day and that II
| is certain to triumph at the primary.
Governor Stubbs will visit Montgom-
cry. my home county. this week and
I have asked that my friends go out to
hear him."
Mr.. Wagstaff speaks tonight at Man
haitian. His dates for the rest of the
week follow: Tuesday, Clyde and Con-
cordia; Wednesday, Clifton and Clay
Center: Thursday. Junction City and
Abilene; Friday, Solomon and Enter
prise; Saturday, Mound Ridge and

new HIGH RECORD.
Imports This Year Promise to Exceed
Those of Any Previous 12 Months.

Washington, June 13.-The high
record of imports of manufacturers
materials will be reached during the
current fiscal year, which will displace
1907 as the banner year" in the i'm
portation of such articles. This is the
opinion of the bureau of statistics,
based upon the figures for the ten
months ending April 80, 1910.
In the cases of all the important
articles, with the exception of fibres
and cotton, which showed slight de-
crease, as compared with 1907, the
importationS materially exceeded
those of 1907 in quantity, the increases
ranging from 10 to more than 100 per
cent.
Measuring the entire group of man
ufacturers articles in dollars, the bu-
reau of statistics figures showed i'm
portations for the first ten months of
this year valued at $728 million
against 1929 million in the cores
ponding period of 1907. or an increase
of 16 per cent The indications are,
it is said, that the total importations
of these materials for the entire year
will aggregate 5000 million.

HE'S BUSY ON BOARD.
Colonel Roosevelt Makes Speeches to
Emigrants on His Ship.

On Board Kaiserin Auguste Victoria,
June II, via wireless to Crook Haven,
Ireland, June 13-Theodore Roosevelt
was the chief figure in a noteworthy
scene il the steerage this afternoon,
when he attended a. Catholic service
held for 1,200 emigrants, Russian and
Galician Poles. The emigrants sur
rounded him and later draped him with
an American flag. They chanted a
Litany and then Mr.. Roosevelt spoke
briefly, the priest interpreting.
Mr.. Roosevelt welcomed his hearers
to America and gave them advice on
the necessity of avoiding association
with strangers upon landing. He ex-
horted them to be mindful of the duties
of citizenship and to protect the rights
of women. At the end of his remarks
the emigrants crowded about him, try
ing to kiss his hands.
Later at a service in the second
cabin, at which a German priest Of
ficiated, Mr.. Roosevelt spoke in similar
cheered his remarks. The ex-president,
accompanied by the steamers captain,
inspected the third cabin and compli-
mented the captain on its comfort and
condition. He said it was to be hoped
that the steerage might eventually be
abolished and it's place be taken by
third class cabins.
This morning he attended Protest
ant service in the salon. On Monday
he will address the crew and stokers,
and on Tuesday with French, German
and Polish priests and Protestant
clergy he will give a reception to the
first and second cabin passengers. This
weather has been perfect since 1.-The
Kaiserin Auguste Victoria left port.

TWENTY DEAD.
Montreal Herald Building Is
Destroyed by Fire.
Big Water Tank Falls Through
to Basement.
DROP THROUGH GAP.
Bindery Girls and Linotype Men
Go Down.
The Loss Is Estimated at
100000.
DROP THROUGH GAP.

Montreal June 13.-Bodies of proba-
bly, 20 bindery girls and linotype men
are buried beneath tons of the wreck
ed machinery and debris in the base
ment of the Herald building in this
city. which was burned today. Many
of the girls met their death in slow
torture.
Flames crept slowly upon them as
they lay helpless and as a rescue party
was fighting to penetrate the building.
The victims were carried downward
through the building by a huge water
tank. which plunged from roof to eel
lar.
Almost instantly there was an explo-
sion of gas from several pipes which
hung about the sides of the immense
jagged hole. Flames, famed by stiff
wind, were soon sweeping the upper
floors of the building. Scores of persons
in the editorial and other departments
had to fight for their lives through
smoke and Wreckage.
The fire department could make lit
tie impression on the increasing flames.
Cries of buried victims rose over the
shouts of the f1remen ano the crowd
Although the flames were steadily in
creasing, it appeared for time as if
some who had been hurled to the base
ment might be rescued
The police headed a volunteer party
which. protected by a water curtain
formed by streams from the fire hose
tried to enter the building. With the
opening of the doors the groans and
cries of those pinned in the ruins be-
came more distinct. But just with
in wall of flame suddenly arose.
Gradually the cries died out AL
attempts at rescue soon had to be
abandoned.

WILL NOT SPEND ALL.
Board of Control to Return Money to
Treasury.

Harry Bowman of the board of con-
troll filed a report with the governor to-
day which shows balances of the
boards fund left on hand unexpended
totalling 5000, 9,597 on June 1. About half
of that sum will be expended this
month on salaries and to buy goods for
next year, leaving $150,000 to be turned
back into the treasury June 80, the end
of the fiscal year. This is a good show
ing for the charitable institutions, and
Mr.. Bowman is of the opinion that
the anti-Stubbs men cannot make cap
itaI out of this report, although he is
not sure.
