GOV. DENEEN's STATEMENT.
4 Review of the Senatorial Fiqht at
 Springfield.

Springfield. H., May Ex-Governor Deneen today issued the following statement in reference to the speech today in the senate in which he was attacked by Senator LOrimer: 'sWhi!e reports of Senator LOrimer's speech obtained by me have been meagre. I understand that he charges that I el- tered into a conspiracy with the Chi cago Tribune to have published the confession of Representative White.
 This charge is without any founda- ton of fact. The facts are as follows. About midnight of the day before the story was published a reporter of the Tribune met me at the Union League club and informed me that the editor of the Tribune was exceedingly anxious to interview me about a matter of very great importance, and that they would have to go to press within a few min- uteS
 Accordingly. I went to the Tribune office. A statement was there made to me of MT. Whites confession and an interview was requested. I gave a very brief interview in which I stated in substance that a full examination should be made of the assertions con- nected with the confession. I expressed no opinion regarding the truth of the charges.
 MT. Whites confession was in type and was on the press when l arrived at the Tribune office. This was the first intimation I received that White had confessed or was in any way inn plicated in charges of bribery.
 Regarding the deadlock over the senatOrship: After the primaries, stood for the election of Senator Hop- kins and did not know that Mir Lori- mer. MT. Shurtleff and their friends were against him until a minority of republican members who were in harmony with MT. Lorimer and Speak CT Shurtleff had effected an Organi- zatiOn of the house of representatives

Convicted by Curry in Sugar

New York, Sept. 27.-One sorinef
customs official acquitted and two con
victed on one count each in the indict-
ment against them was the result OF
the customs fraud underweighing trial
concluded in The United states circuit

FOOD COMMISSIONER
STILL AFTER EGGS
Farmer Pays $40 and Costs fos
Selling Theatrical Variety
to Merchant.

VermnIion, S. D.. Sept. 27.-Pure
Food Commissioner Cook and Deputy
Commissioners Bitterness have just re-
turne from inspecting the various
parts of the state. A local dealer In one
of the cities of the state was fined $1,000
and costs in justice court for Offering
Uncle Sans Condition Powders for
sale, which were not labeled according
to the stock food law. Another party
was recommended for prosecution for
d similar offense. The trial viii be
held in a few days.
f. G. Cole, a farmer near Villas,
S. D., was fined $1,000 and costs in
justice court for selling rotten eggs to
n of the local dealers. There has
been a misconception with regard to
the pure food law throughout the state
on account OF the fact that the word
no" was, by ONE accident substituted
for the word amy" in a certain place
in the pure food law when 1t was en-
acted two years ago. But this error
only affects the shipping of adulterated
food n in no way affects the sale
thereof. The error will not materially
affect the enforcement OF the pure food
laws. Everyone found selling rotten
eggs or offering the same for sale In
The stores, Oh merchants selling the
same to produce houses, will be rec
commended for prosecution. -

1t will be observed that the Catholics
are first In membership and third in
number of churches. The Lutherans
tre second in membership and first in

Ind third in membership; the other

Test that at least one-half of the peo-
