BLEACHED FLOUR
IN JURY'S HANDS
Judge Allows Jurors to Go to Their
Homes and Begin Delib-
erations Today
WAR MADE ON INSTRUCTIONS
Attorneys Say 1t Is Case of Mil
Iers of One Section Against
Those of Another
[Associated Press1

KANSAS CITY. July 5.-The bleach
ed flour case in the federal court mere
went to the jury at six O'Clock this
evening. When at $3.50 verdict had
not been reached JUDI Mcpherson al
lowed the jury to go home. Deliber-
ations will be resumed at o'clock to-
morrow morning. In Judge McPher-
sons chambers tonight Judge L. F..
Scarritt one of the attorneys for the
defense, took exception to Judge Nc
Pherson's instructions to the jury on
the ground that all the issues in the
case had not been submitted.
The Judges instructions were con-
sidered by attorneys for the defense
to be favorable to the government. IN
the afternoon one of these attorneys
with some warmth called attention to
the fact that Pierce Butler, leading
counsel for the government, is from
Minneapolis. Other statements were
made charging that the whole case IS
merely fight of the northwestern MIL
lers against the southwestern millers.
Judge Mcpherson in his charge to
the jury said that it was stated in the
governments petition that on April 1,
1910, the Lexington Mill and Elevator
company of Lexington, Neb.. shipped
to B. o. Terry, a grocer at castle;
Mo-, 625 sacks of -four. 1t was charged
that the -four had been treated by the
Alsop process of bleaching, which con-
sists of the generation by means OF
electricity of nitrogen peroxide gas.
Judge Mcpherson said that the gov
ernment charged that this process
adulterates the -four, because nltrates
and nitric reacting materials are mixed
with the flour; because the gluten was
impaired so as injuriously to affect the
bread-making qualities of the flour,
and because the bleaching concealed
the inferiority of the -four.
The government charged that the
flour seized was inferior to flour made
from first quality hard wheat and that
the Alsop bleaching process gave 1t the
appearance of flour made from such
wheat.
Jndee Mcpherson said that the de-
PENDANTS in their answer admit that
the flour was bleached by the Alsop
process but deny that it was adulter-
ated or misbranded.

PORTLAND, July 5.-Former United

to the Associated Press:
"There is so much errors of fact con-
tanned in the dispatch from Oyster

'In the first place Senator Piles is
not a candidate to succeed himself.
I'm the second place, Judge Ballinger

contest whatever Ballinger is not the

American Ambassador Takes Up
Mob Assault on Baptist
Missionaries
INVESTIGATION is TO FOLLOW
Foreign Office at Rome Gives As
SuranCeS That Disturb
anCeS Shall Cease
Associated Pressl

ROME, July 5.-The American am
bassador, ]. G. Leishmann, has brought
to the attention of the premier and the
foreign office the situation arising from
recent attacks on Baptist missionaries
in the province of Avellino. At the time
of the earthquake in that district early
in June, James p. Stuart of st. Louis,
the representative of the American
board of Baptist missions in Italy, and
other missionary workers were attacked
by mob and We're escorted out of the
district by a detachment of soldiers.
After a conference with Premier Luz
zatti at Rome Mr.. Stuart returned to
Ayellino district. where another attack
was made on him and his companions.
He telegraphed a statement of the af-
fair to the American ambassador, who
requested him to come to Rome. Mr..
Stuart did so, and had a long confer
ence with Ambassador Leishmann to-
day. To the ambassador he reported
further details of the occurrence.
Arriving at the outskirts of AVellino,
Mr.. stuart, accompanied by three other
missionaries, was met by the chief of
police, several constables and a dozen
soldiers. A bowling crowd of natives
quickly sorrounded the carriage.
SO demonstrative did they become
that it was only with difficulty they
could be restrained by force from uOlnS
the missionaries injury. on all sides
arose the cry of Down with the Bap-
tists!" and d shower of stones fell
about the carriage. Mr.. Stuart was hit
in the chest, the arms and leg, while
the chief of police was slightly
wounded.
The soldiers with drawn bayonets
formed a circle around the Americans
and protected them at the entrance to
the Baptist church. The mob, however,
stoned the church from 4 o'clock until
10 o'clock at night, breaking all the
windows but doing no serious damage.
Other soldiers were called, and accord
ing to Mr.. Stuart prevented massa-
ere by the infuriated italians, who now
numbered several thousands.
The beseged missionaries were com
PEELED to remain in the church the en-
tire night. Eventually Mr.. Stuart sue
ceeded in sending a telegram to the
American ambassador at Rome.
The following day a detail of 400
soldiers was called to the village and
the missionaries were released from
their position.
Both Premier Luzzatti and the for-
eign minister have given assurances
that measures will be taken to prevent
such disturbances in the future, and
also that an investigation of the mat
ter will be made
