Other Hospitals Comply.

Other hospitals show considerably more
than the food properties required by law
on the date covered by this morning S
figures.
Although these tests have disclosed
only four hospitals with milk that the
law calls adulterated. the final announce
ment as to the purity of milk in the hos
pitfalls cannot be made until the bacteria
logical tests are completed. The purity
of the milk depends In great measure on
the germs in it. The Agricultural De-
partment is analysing some hospital milk
submitted by DR.. Woodward, and the
results will not be known for Few

NOT Up TOSTANDARD
Charge That Inferior Milk Is
Used in Hospitals.
SHOWN BY CHEMICAL TEST
Investigation Made by Experts of
District Health Office and
National Bureau.

The figures on the inspection books of
the health department this morning show
four prominent hospitals which. on the
days the sample of milk was taken up
by the inspector. were furnishing to their
patients milk below the standard. The
chemical tests showing this state of af-
fairs were carried out by the health de-
partment psychologists and chemists.
working hand in hand with the experts
from DR.. Wiley's bureau.
The milk investigation. as far as it
concerns hospitals, has been going on
quietly for some time past. Each days
investigation is noted and becomes part
of the official records of the District.
but so far DR.. Woodward has declined
to make public the names of the hos
pitfalls concerned.
Standard Set by Law.
The four hospitals concerned IN the
figures shown this morning have milk
somewhat below the standard set by law
for percentages of fat. The food law of
1898 says that milk shall be deemed
adulterated if il contains less than 3ls
per cent Of fat or less than ?@ per cent
of solids other than fat and contains
more than 81. per cent of water. The
health departments explanation of the
milk OF these four hospitals is that some
/ one has poured water into 1T.
| One hospital shows only . per cent OF
| fat in its milk instead Of ; per cent, and
the water percentage is higher than the
| law allows. Another hospital frankly
| confesses to having used skinned milk
| 1t shows on the books as having less
than the required quantity of fat. An
| other hospital named almost daily in the
newspapers uses some sort OF concen'
trated milk, and pours in too much wa
| ter. according to the health department
| The fourth hospitals figures show %
| per cent of fat where it takes 3 per cent
| to keep from being adulterated.

Biggest Rally of the Season
Planned for Next
Thursday.

Plans are being matured for the
big Poindexter rally which will take
place in this city next Thurs day
evening. Congressman Poindexter,
candidate for the senate, has been
making a triumphal campaign
through the state and has been
greeted with immense audiences
everywhere that he has gone. He
speaks here on September LIST and
at Leavenworth on September2. The
meeting will be at the Wenatchee
theatre and the local band has been
engaged for that evening.
T. H. Atkinson, candidate for the
legislature, will participate in the
big meeting and is expected to make
an address, and it is safe to say that
these two men will be sufficient

dience. Mr.. Atkinson is considered
one of the most forcible and logical
speakers in the county and at that
time will outline his views on pub
lie questions. Mr.. Atkinson also

Bryan Will Follow Through Indiana
With Local Option Talk.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 24.-Wil'
liam Jennings Bryan will spend at
least three days in Indiana during
the fall campaign. Chairman Stokes
Jackson, of the state committee, said
today that there will be no special
train, but Bryan will make at least
two set speeches daily.
Six or eight big democratic raj
lies will be planned, so that Bryan
will be able to cover the state pretty
The committee will
provide an automobile so that he
can cover a lot of territory.
Bryan will follow Colonel Roose-
welt, who is to be headliner for the
republicans here October 13. He
will speak in Indianapolis and prob
ably in two or three larger cities,
but it is likely that he will be book
ed for some of the dry" democratic
counties where there is a strong 10
cal option sentiment.
He has been informed that he can
cut loose with any kind of local op-
ton talk he desires. The committee
is making the campaign on the state
platform, which provides for local
option by towns, cities and town
ships, but no such restrictions will
be placed on the Peerless One"

UNCLE JOE IS NOT
ON LIST
Congressional Committee
Decides His Talk Would
Be Bad for Party.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 24.-An-
other step in the reported attempt
of the administration to relegate
Speaker Cannon TO a less important
place in the councils of the repub-
lican party, it was learned today, has
been made by the republican con-
gressiOnal campaign committee. For
the first time in many congressional
campaigns Cannon has not been as
signed speaking dates by the commit
tee.
Republican leaders say Uncle Joe s
services are not wanted because OF
his avowed attitude on insurgency
which he is prone to express in his
speeches. His attitude they declare,
in his addresses in Kansas, and the
results in Kansas stirred up there are
sufficient to show the leaders that in
surgency is good thing to let alone.
1t is reported that Taft and his
political advisers, after studying the
results from Kansas, Iowa, Califor-
mia and other states, have concluded
that the less said about insurgency
the better.
The campaign will be tread
lighter" affair, as far as insurgency
goes, it is said, none of the regu-
lar leaders desiring to raise the is
sue any further than it has already
been stirred up.
That Speaker Cannon could not
take the stump without expressing
his views on the republicans who
did not conform to his idea of party
regularity is so firmly believed that
the congressional committee will not
put him on the stump.
Politicians here, forecasting the
result of the speakership fight in the
next congress. following the ,announ-
cement of Representative Longworth
that he will not vote for Cannon,
believes that another presiding Of
ficer will be chosen. The desertion
of Congressman Smith. of Iowa, who
Is a candidate for speaker himself,
and of Congressman Humphrey, of
Washington, it is believed, indicate
that 1t is impossible for Cannon to
be reelected. n.

WILL DECLARE No
STRIKE
No Sympathetic Strike of
Unions to Help the
Machinists.

Seattle, Aug. 24.-Hopes of the
leaders in the machinists' strike that
their fellow workmen in theaBoiler-
makers and holders unions would
go out in Seattle on a sympathetic
strike, were disappointed today when
the word was passed around the
shops that there would be no strike.
The Pattern Makers union was also
expected to go out on strike, as a
part of the plan of the union leaders
to force a general walkout in the
metal trades as a measure to aid the
cause of the machinists.
The Salmon Bay Iron works, the
Vulcan Iron works and the Rainier
foundry employ union molders. Out
side of these three places the mold
ers in Seattle are non-union All
the foundries affiliated with the
United Metal Trades association en-
play none but non-uniOn molders.

Held No Inquest.

In the absence from the city of
Coroner Saunders, Judge Palmer de-
cided that no inquest was necessary
to investigate into the death of the
Italian who was killed yesterday in
the local railroad yards. The man
was practically penniless and it is
likely that the sewer contractors and
defray the funeral expenses. The
man will be inferred today. That he
was of very strong vitality is evil
denced by the fact that he lived fully
an hour yesterday after the accident,
even though cut all to pieces.

CANNOT FORCE
bA[L|NGER
TO QUIT
Presidents Advisers, Who
Tried to Get Him Out of
Way, Admit Defeat.

Washington, d. c., Aug. ga
special dispatch to the Washington
Times from it's staff correspondent
at Beverly today says:
Secretary Ballinger is not going
to be kicked out of President Taft's
cabinet. The plan formulated by
certain would-be leaders of the re-
publican party, some of them close
to the president, to force Ballinger
into retirement by repeated sugges-
lions through newspapers that he
ought to quit has gone on the rocks.
Ballinger has seen through the
scheme and will not retire. 1t was
even admitted by advisors close to
the President that hope for retire
ment of Balinger had grown dim and
indistinct and that while there was
still straw or two to cling to, talk
of Ballinger's retirement on Septem-
Der Is was not justified at all. This
much was made known on high au-
thority in Beverly today.
Angry at Crane and Norton.
Ballinger is known to have grown
indignant at attempts made by Sen
ator Crane and Secretary Norton to
draw him into the contest and thus
eliminate him altogether. He is said
to have had a hot exchange of COM
pliments with Senator Crane and
probably has informed Secretary
Norton directly or through friends
that he will not accede to any de-
mands for retirement except they
come from Mr.. Taft himself.
The President is described as un-
willing to ask for Ballinger's retire
ment. He may still hope that his
secretary of interior will get out,
but he is not ready to come out in
a public statement and say so. The
president has been told that efforts
of Crane were unavailing and is said
to have declared that he would do
nothing more to urge Ballinger to
quit.
