MILK SEIZURES
ARE UPHELD.
IMPORTANT DECISION RETURNED
BY THE MINNEAPOLIS sU-
PREME COURT.
1uBERCuLAR TEST HELD GOOD
Cities Are Given Unlimited Power to
Regulate Their Milk Supply In the
Interest Of Public
Health.

st. Paul, July 3O.-The Minnesota
supreme court has handed down de-
cision sustaining the right Of cities to
demand pure milk.
The decision is that in the case of
Ole B. Nelson, who represented the
Seven Corners Milk Company, the
Northeast Milk company, the North
Minneapolis Milk company, the Bloom
ington Milk company, the Flour
City Creamery company and the Star
Creamery company. The case was
brought by Nelson to determine
whether an ordinance requiring herds
supplying milk to the city creameries
should be required to undergo the tu-
berculin test. At the trial in March
an order was made declaring the or.
dinance valid, and an appeal was taken
by Nelson to the supreme court.
Cities Given Vast Power.
The decision of the court was
sweeping, declaring, in effect, that a
city possesses power to adopt any
means it deems expedient to safeguard
its milk supply. The text of the opin-
ion follows:
"An ordinance of the city of Min.
neapolis prescribing as test Of purity
and wholesomeness of milk brought
into the city for sale, that drawn from
cows previously subjected to the tuber-
culin test and found free from disease,
held not in conflict with the statutes
of the state, and valid police regu.
lation. Following State vs.. Nelson. Sc
Mimi, 166.
"The methods to be adopted to in
sure a supply of pure milk, and the
standard by which the same shall be
determined, is a legislative, and not a
judicial question.
IAN ordinance authorizing the sum-
mary seizure and destruction of milk
not conforming to the standard fixed
by law, is not violative of the consti-
tutional rights of the citizen, nor a
taking of property without due process
of law.

declared they should remain In their

The result was that when nightfall

attacks on cars in all sections Of the

had done on previous nights. As they
did not gather in crowds there were

New York, July 30.-A Trail little

In whose manner and presence there
was nothing to suggest that single
handed he had coolly lifted 100000 in
bonds and stocks from the strong box
Of bank, was arrested In q down.
town restaurant, not five minutes
walk from the bank he had robbed.
He was Erwin Wider, the missing
cashier of the Russo Chinese bank. In
the court of general sessions his law
yer, Leon Ginsberg, said that he would
plead guilty and he was committed
to the Tombs in default OF $4,000
bail.
Almost as Wider was arrested the
grand jury handed up an Indictment
against him, charging specifically that
he stole three certificates, one of 30
shares and two others Of rs shares
each Of Baltimore & Ohio stock, and
that he disposed of them through the
brokerage house of Dick Brothers on
May 90, last. These particulars indi
cate that the process Of theft had been
going on for weeks and possibly for
months before it was discovered.
The arrest was due to the persist.
ence with which detectives trailed
Widers wife. She was in consulta.
ton Friday night with Mrs. Ginsberg,
whose husband, besides being Wider's
lawyer, was also his neighbor. And
thence she was traced to the restaur.
ant where her husband was arrested.
Wider himself was pitifully broken.
His lawyer said he was sick man
and he looked it. AS he was led into
the Tombs he collapsed.
Ginsberg's statement that all the
sum stolen had been eaten up in spec.
ulation would seem to indicate that
the bank will never recover a dollar.
1t has been said heretofore that suits
will be filed against the brokers with
whom Wider dealt but no such suits
have yet been instituted.
