NOTICE OF THE GAME LAW AND
ITS CONSTRUCTION

In recent test case of the Marion
county, Florida special game law it
is held by County Judge Bell as fol-
lows:
l. That section / of chapter 6290,
acts of 1911, laws of Florida, is valid
and in force and that it is lawful to
hunt wild turkey and quail from the
18th day of November to the 18th day
of February of each and every year
on the enclosed and uninclosed lands
of Marion county, Florida. That Sec
ton 2 of said chapter 1920 is valid
and in force, and that it is lawful to
hunt wild deer in Marion county,
Florida, during the months of Sep
TENDER and October of each and ev-
cry year.
2. That section OF said chapter
6290 is invalid for the reason that
the title to the game of the state is
held by the state for the use and
benefit of all the citizens of the state,
and that while the legislature has
power and authority to regulate the
hunting and taking of game and the
right to make classifications of per-
sons with reference to the subject of
hunting game, the classification of
chapter with reference to hunting on
a persons own enclosed premises has
no just relation to real differences of
citizens of Marion county who are
citizens but not owners of enclosed
lands but who may be land owners,
and citizens of said county who are
the owners of enclosed lands in said
county, is unjust and arbitrary land
unjustly discriminates against one
citizens, and denies to them as per-
son shaving equal rights in the game
the due process of law and the equal
protection of law that is guaranteed
by the state and federal constitutions,
and it is unlawful in Marion county
for the owners of enclosed lands in
said county to hunt game upon their
own enclosed premises save only
from the 18th day of November to
the 18th day of February of each and
every year.
3. That section of said chapter
$3.50 in so far as the same relates to
the hunting, shooting and killing of
wild turkey and quail on the unin-
closed lands in Marion county, Flor
ida, during the months of September
and October of each and every year
is in direct conflict with the provis-
ions of section / of said chapter, and
is invalid.
The law, according to this con-
struction, will be enforced in Marion
county, Florida until the ruling of the
county judge is reversed, and all cit
liens are notified to govern them
selves accordingly.

COTTON DROPS
 S2.50 A BALE LIQUIDATION BY LEADERS BROKE THE NEW YORK MARKET
 TUESDAY.
CONFIDENCE AND RAIN
UnfayOrable Trade Adyices Added To The Ability of Bears To Hammer
 Market.

New York, July 1S.-The cotton fu- Qtres market had more active and excited opening today than for months past and there was a sensational break in prices. Before the opening private cables had been received from Liver pool saying that the Dull" leaders were liquidating and when business started in the local market, practically every operator around the ring was supplied with selling orders.
 First prices were at a decline of from 25 to 29 points and while rally of from liquidation of long cotton con- 'tinued.
 The South was a big seller and be- fore midday August had sold at 1924 cents or $2.50 a bale of cotton below the closing price of Monday while new crops were from $50 to S1.75 net lower and December selling adding to the decline. Rains in the Southwest increased confidence in the big estl- mates of the coming Crop together with unfavorable trade advices. These seemed to be responsible for the sell ing in connection with the fear that after two years of almost uninterrupt- ed success the bull leaders had at last found themselves on the wrong side of the ledger.

CHANGE AT S. & A.
 HUNDRED HERE
Unofficial Report Says Deal Between Sawyer X Austin and LOng-Bell Company Consummated and
 Change Has Been Made.

It was unofficially reported here yesterday that the deal for tue sale of the large holdings of the Sawyer x Austin Lumber Company in this city Company, of Kansas City, had been consummated and that the new own CTS took charge of the mammoth To- cal plant on yesterday morning.
 General Manager R. M. Johnston, of the Sawyer & Austin Lumber Com pany, stated last night that there was no truth to the report. He said that the deal was still on and would most likely be consummated in few days. but up to the present time he had not been officially notified of the purch- ase. J. w. Martin, who will in all probability have charge of the Long Bells interests here when the deal is made, is still in the city and is spend ing much of his time at the local of- fices of the Sawyer & Austin Con- pany, to get the business we'll in hand before taking charge.
 There is no doubt but that the deal involving the sale of the Sawyer and Austin Lumber Company's interests, as reported in the Graphic several weeks ago, has been made, but the fi- nal details have not been completed. The official announcement of the pur- chase will probably be made the lat ter part of this month and the change will take place on or about August 1. The employees at the local plant of the Sawyer and Austin Company, all of whom will be retained, are thor oughly convinced that the new own CTS will take charge shortly. The of ficial announcement of the sale will be made from Kansas City, when it is consummated.

himself in benzOate of soda. lie is vice president of the United States now and infinitely more powerful and if his associations and predictions lie along the samc lines, he is able to render much greater service tG the canners who objected to Wiley's rui- ing against benzoate of soda. It is olxNrvcd here today that if Mir. Vice k lesident Sherman had been In the canning business himself his activity In behalf of bcnz0ata of soda could not have been more marked.
 These are some of the lands that will be followed by the House com mittee when it gets down to the work of Investigating the Wiley affair.
 So far as Attorney General Wicker sham is concerned, the president was at pains today to explain to callers that MT. Wiekersham has been mis- understood in the entire transaction, and the president takes upon his own shoulders the blame for the position in which the attorney general has been placed. Highly commenting MT. Wickersham for his zeal and cnthus- iasm in the public service, the presi- dent said he had grown to depend up- on the attorney general to point that has become almost imposition When the papers in the Wiley case came in the president impulsively thrust them at the attorney general with a request that he go over them and let the president have his opinion According to the president the attor ney general passed on the case in l formally without being in possession of Dr. Wileys side of the ease--in an informal manner to speak-and 1t was not intended that the opinion should become a public document. 1t was for the eye of the president alone. And then Mr Taft by his own ac- knowledgement, made the mistake of including the opinion of the attorney general in the bundle of papers that he sent to the men against whom the charges were made. The president i regrets this deeply.

R0B|SON TIRED"
 HOUSE INQUIRIES BENI0 tTE OF SODA DECISION BOBS UP IN WICkERSHAM-
 WILEY TANGLE
MIR. TAFT BLAMES SELF
Says He Regrets Incident-yice Presi- dent Sherman May Be Involved
 In Scandal.

Washington, July 18.-The case of Dr. Harvey W. Wiley has become mere incident of the Department of Agriculture situation with the pract- cal assurance that Dr. Wiley will be retained in the service.
 Congress, through the house commit tee on expenditures in the Department of Agriculture, now proposes search in inquiry into the motives behlhd the Wiley affair A house cleaning oi the department is regarded as highly necessary and the conviction IS grow ing that in the near future there Will be a complete reorganization with new Secretary of Agriculture in charge.
 The dismissal of Floyd w. Robison, one of Dr. Wileys right hand men, which was but side light on the case at the start, is rapidly becoming the dominant feature for the case Robison who was employed in the food and drug labatory of the government at New York, was especially identified with the benzoate of soda case, one of the celebrated fights in which Dr. Wi ley engaged and in which he antagon- ized particularly powerful canning in terests. It was Robison who backed Wiley in his decision against benzoate of soda, after which decision James $. Sherman, now vice president, visited President Roosevelt at the head of a delegaton of New York canners and was turned over to the Remsden Con- mission, whose decision was practical ly reversal of Dr. Wley's ruling.
 The matter was left in such doubt, however, that the State of Indiana de- cided to make test case and Robison became star witness in the proceeding which is still pending. All this time Robison was enrolled in the govern ment service as an expert chemist and being paid on a per diem basis It hap pened shortly after he testified in the Indiana case that personal business caused his call to Detroit. He left New York with the understanding that when he had concluded his business he was to return to the government service on the old basis. And now comes the announcement that he has been dropped by Secretary Wilson "for the good of the service" No charges were filed against him-he was and is regarded as a valuable ,man. His opinions were never con- troverted except upon the occasion when the present vice president James s. Sherman, led the delegation of can- ners to the White House to protest against the benzoate of soda decision.
 The House committee wants to know about these circumstances and what is behind them. Dr. Wiley still holds to his original opinion regarding benzoate of soda and so does Robison. sThe Committee wants to know what caused the Secretary of Agriculture to drop Robison and there will be some pointed inquiries as to whether any political influence has been brought to bear to the disadvantage of both Rob- ison and his chief.
