PEDRO GONZALES.
Secretary Knox

which will net them enormous profits
which the consumer must mako good.
On top of that statement Representa-
tive Burleson of Texas has Introduced
a bill which will shortly be considered
by the committee on agriculture OF the
house to reduce the tax on oleomar-
garine from 10c a pound to 1sc pound.
The present tax Is 1kc on uncolored
oleomargarIne, but if any colored mat
ter whatever is Incorporated Into the
product it Will pay a tax of 10c a pound.
Secretary McVeagh Is understood to en-
dorse this bill heartily on the ground
that the lower tax rate, providing some
amendments to the present law are
adopted, will assure the sale of oleo-
margarine for exactly what II is and
will at the same time increase the rcve-
nues. The Burleson bill Will undoubt-
cdly meet with strenuous opposition on
the part of tho so-called butter trust
but at the same time the high price
of butter has induced many labor or
ganizations and other combinations of
consumers to urge that the tax on the
imitation product be reduced so that
those who desire to lubricate their food
with a wholesome article of commerce
may not be forced to pay the exorbitant
tax of 10c pound for the privilege Of
doing so. The present agitation prom
iscs to be as acrimonious as that of
1890, which resulted in the forcing Of
the Grout bill through Congress In spite
of the fact that at least so per cent of
those who voted for that measure were
honestly opposed to its principles.

BIG REWARD STIMULATES
HUNT FOR SMUGGLERS
Hundred thousand Paid Pnrr for In
formation Against sugar COM
bine Bearing Fruit.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE reward Of
100000 to Richard Parr for disclosing
frauds practiced on the customs service
at It's New York docks has so stimulated
activities '1n the informing line' that the
Treasury department has been compelled
to ask for a large appropriation for this
purpose. In asking for a deficiency APP
preparation Of $4,000 Assistant Secretary
Curtiss Of the Treasury department made
the following statement to the house COM
mittee on appropriations:
THE real reason why, Irrespective OF the
aim of the president. we need more money
Is that we have an increased number of
foreigners coming in, owing to our own
increased activities and hope of rewards
similar to PARIS large sum Of money. The
activities in the informing line are much
greater than they were three or four years
ago, principally owing TO the fact that we
are prosecuting the cases with so much
more vigor than formerly and discovering
more frauds"
The urgent deficiency appropriations bill
carrying t995,672 was passed by the house
today. The bill contains an appropriation
for $4,000 for Richard Parr, the United
States customs inspector who did so much
in bringing TO light the sugar frauds at
the New York customs house. This is the
balance Of the 100000 which MIR. Parr re-
ceived for his disclosures. Mr. Parr is not

South Dakota Millers
Want Lower Rates
They Allege They Cannot Compete
with Mills that Have Advantage
Of Interstate Rates.

HURON, S. D.. Dec. 17-(Special "A
meeting Of the State Railway commission
was held here Thursday TO hear com
plants from the South Dakota Grain
Dealers association and the state Milling
association. Attorneys Null 8 Royhl OF
this city appeared for the grain assocla-
ton and millers, and A. X. Gardner and
b. f. Farrell Of this city and w. p.
Dougherty Of Dell Rapids appeared for the
railway companies. The grain dealers
were especially interested in an attempt
TO establish rates sufficiently low to per
nit shipping OF grain from and to various
points in the state, II developed that
every fall II is found necessary to ship
grain within the state from points where
crops are abundant TO sections less for
tunate. This. however cannot be done
with profit to dealers because Of the high
freight rates, hence the attempt for q
lower tariff. The question involved In
which the millers were especially inter
ested was that OF interstate rates that
would permit South Dakota millers "a
compete with foreign mlilers doing bust
ness within the state. South Dakota millers
feel that under existing rates they are
not given favorable chance for competi-
ton. At the conclusion Of the testimony
postponement was taken for thirty days

Railroads Ask Relief
From Legal Liability
Applications Under Long and Short
Haul Provisions Pour Into Com
merce Commission.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.-Applications
for relief under the long and short haul
provision of the interstate commerce act
have been pouring in on the Interstate
Commerce commission for several weeks,
but more particularly during the last few
days. These applications ask relief from
liability for violation OF the long and short
haul provision, II being well known that
the tariffs of every railroad contain in
stances of technical violation OF that sec
ton OF the law. Authority is given the
commission TO exercise discretion in ad-
ministering the law in this particular.
Several weeks ago the commission issued
an order fixing February IL as the last
day for filing applications for relief, that
date being six months from the effective
date Of the laws operation, as fixed in
the law itself
To be on the safe side, however, and In
order to preclude the raising OF an EN-
barrassing question in the courts, subse-
quently, the majority OF the railroads de-
cided to file their applications within six
months OF the passage by congress Of the

DANISH BANKER TO PRISON
P. A. Albert, Who Embezzled Trus
Funds, Given Eight Years.
SHORTAGE OVER TWO MILLIONS
He Was Formerly Minister of Justice
and His REGULATIONS Caused the
Resignation of Christinn-
sen Ministry.

COPENHAGEN, Dec. 17.-Former Min
lister OF Justice p A. Albertl the revela-
ton of whose banking frauds in the fall Of
lSOS acandalized the country, was sentenced
today to eight years penal servitude.
Alberti suffered physical collapse in
March, 1909, while awaiting trial and was
removed to a hospital where he remained
until sufficiently restored to face his &C
cusers.
For fourteen years Albert had held a
commanding place both In politics and
finance He was member Of the
Deuntzer ministry and later dominated
the Christensen cabinet, which he entered
as minister OF justice in 1906. As president
OF the Bondesstandena SparkaSse, a saw
ings bank and Of the Danish Farmers
Export association he was the custodian.
really, of enormous funds to which he be-
gan to help himself according TO his own
confession seven years before he accepted
the portfolio Of Justice.
Unpleasant rumors had been in circuia-
ton for some time before the exposure
came, but the minister was the intimate
OF King Frederick and the idol of the
poorer classes and his financial genius. in
dcmitable will and brilliant oratory re-
peatedly saved him. But the time came
when he could no longer cover his tracks
and hard pressed, Albern confessed that
he had misused the funds of the bank and
that he had systematically robbed the
Export association and its customers from
the day that 1t began business In 1855. His
peculauons amounted he said to about
RSOO,OOO, and the money had been lost In
south African and American mining ven
lures Popular Indignation was so intense
that Premier Christensen, who but re-
Gently had publicly affirmed Albertrs
honesty, was forced to submit the resig-
nation OF the entire cabinet
