FLOUR REPORTED ON.
Agricultural Experts Say BIeached
Product Does Not Harm.

Professors j. T. Willard and c. A A
UT of the State Agricultural college,
after an exhaustive series of expert
ments to determine the injury to diges-
ton, if any, that results from usins
bleached flour, have reported to the
state board of health in favor of
bleached flour. They were unable to
find any difference between the bleach
ed and the unbleached samples of flour
insofar as digestion is concerned
The following extract from their re-
port covers the result of the investiga-
tion
THE three series of experiments in
connection with this investigation hay e
included "a tests by artificial digestion,
each made in duplicate. In no case has
a comparison of the results shown any
appreciable difference between bleached
flour and the corresponding unbleached
sample. In view of the uniformity of
these results the conclusion seems I'M
avoidable that flour bleached to the ex-
tent that our samples were is not altered
in respect to rate of digestion"
The finding is of particular interest
in view of the fact that the bleached
flour case now is on trial in the federal
courts Kansas millers claim that if it.
is decided that bleached flour is in
furious and cannot be used that the
Kansas wheat raisers will be paid less
money for their wheat.
Kansas wheat makes a darker flour
than the wheat of the northwest and #
the flour is not bleached that gives the
opportunity to the wheat buyers to pay
less for the Kansas wheat, which is
just as good as any wheat in the coun-
try

GUEST OF LODGE.
Colonel Roosevelt Is to Meet Taft
This Afternoon.

Nahant, Mass, June 30.-Following II
hours of absolute SecluSion from the
public, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
arose early this morning and took a
brisk walk about the Nahant estate of
Senator Lodge, his host The estate,
which is beautifully located ON a Sc
cluded point extending into the ocean,
is well hidden. A luxuriant forest
growth conceais the place most eff
fectively from observation on the land
side and the only entrance to the
grounds was closed by a big swinging
gate, behind which stood a uniformed
policeman.
Col. Roosevelt and Senator and Mrs.
Lodge had breakfast about o'clock
As soon as the meal was over Col.
Roosevelt took up his correspondence,
a big mass of literature having been
delivered to him this morning. Sena-
tor Lodge said he and Col. Roosevelt
had planned to go to Beverly in an au-
tomobile. The senator added that no
one would accompany them.
Some time tom orrow probably in the
forenoon, Col Roosevelt will motor
into Boston and go out to the Corey
hospital, where Associate Justice Will
liam H. Moody of the United States
supreme court is a patient. It is eX=
pected Col Roosevelt will return 10
New York tomorrow afternoon.
The Meeting With Taft.
Beverly, Mass, June 30.-President
Taft and former President Roosevelt
are expected to meet this afternoon at
the summer camp on Burgess point in
what is regarded by many as very
important political conference. The
two have not met since inauguration
day, March 4, 1909.
Col Roosevelt was expected to reach
the Taft cottage between 2 and 4 p. m.
Every effort was made to surround
the meeting with as much privacy as
possible. Orders were issued excluding
all visitors from the grounds.

POLICE GET RESULTS.
More Liquor Convictions in June Than
Similar Time Before.

Under the Billiard administration
and with Maurice Jenkins chief of
the police department, Topeka has in
the month of June. obtained more
convictions in liquor cases than in
any similar period of time preceding.
In twenty-nine days there have been
seventeen convictions. Every case has
been made on the sort of evidence
which usually holds good in the dis
trict court and prospects are bad for
the large percentage of these that will
appeal.
In the same period the police de-
partment has made arrests in four
teen cases for the state. These prin-
cipally were on charges of larceny,
burglary and assault Cash fines
amounting to $619.50 have been col
lected. Besides this the department
has put an end to an apidemic of
minor burglaries with which the town
was ridden when the department took
charge. These burglaries invariably
were of small consequence and the
only mode ofa operatien practicable
for ending the nuisance was the clear
ing the town of suspicious characters.
In his work of closing joints Chief
Jenkins has abandoned the old time
plan of getting and using spotter evil
dence in the courts. In no case has
a jointist been convicted upon the ex-
elusive evidence of a police officer.
Usually their testimony in police court
has been only in reference to the time
and place of making the arrest. In a
number of cases the liquor sellers,
when confronted with the evidence
have pleaded guilty, and in no case
has a conviction been made "uopn
suspicion"
Some liquor may be used in clubs,
now and then said Chief Jenkins
this morning. though none of the
clubs are handling it regularly. OF
that L am certain. If there is any
sold 1t is done, quietly and only now
and then when the members get to-
gether for a beer drinking. or similar
entertainment. We have been watch
ing all the old time places, though
they are dark almost always Thus
far we have found little around the
clubs on which to found suspicious"
The record for. June is one that is
cited as one to be viewed with envy
by members of former administra-
lions which devoted attention almost
exclusively to the joints yet failed to
make an equal showing of sound con-
victions.
Conferences between Chief of Po-
lice Maurice Jenkins and Mayor ]. B.
Billiard have been few since the day
when the former was appointed. At
that time the only instructions issued
were that the ordinances should be
enforced.

THEY FILE DEMURRERS.
Meat Packers Begin Defense in Mis-
souri, Custer Suit.

Jefferson City, Mo-, June 30.-The
meat packers whom Attorney General
Major is seeking to GUST from the state
filed demurrers today alleging that no
cause of action is shown in the petit
tions. This raises legal propositions
and the case will be argued upon the
demurrers at the October term of the
supreme court unless the attorney gen
cral demands the appointment of a
commissioner to take testimony pend
ing aclion or the demurrer.
The Hammond Packing company and
the ST. Louis Dressed Beef and Pro-
vision company in their demurrers ask
that the custer suits be dismissed on
the ground that the petitions do not
state facts sufficient to constitute a
cause of action; that there is a mis-
joinder of parties; that there is a mis-
joinder of causes of action and that the
court has no jurisdiction.
