Washington, July 21.-A re.
markable series of facts which
have come to light within the last
twenty-fOur hours indicate that
packers of embalmed beef are the
influences that have been princi-
pally behind the plot to have DIR.
Il. W. Wiley ousted from public
service.
Manufacturers of embalmed
beef are at present, by virtue of
an order issued by the depart
ment of agriculture, permitted
to use benzOate of soda in what
ever quantities they desire. DR..
Wiley not only opposed the issu-
ance of this order, maintaining
that the preservative is decided
~ harmful in its effects upon the
human system but has worked rn
tlrelngly to educate the people
TO the danger lurking in packed
meats in which bezoate is used.
The result is that several states
have passed legislation absolute
!y fOrbidding the use of the drug
IN any quantity whatever. There
fore DR.. Wiley has become a
standing menace to the embalmed
beef industry. "This man Wiley
has got to CO." was the edict that
went out from the embalmed
meat manufacturers.
When DR.. Wiley held that ben
zOate OF soda was harmful to the
human system, the packers ap-
pealed to the Remssen referee
board, especially packed with
friends Of the food dopers, which
board very promptly and oblig-
lngly reversed DR.. Wiley. The
board held that BenzOate of soda
IN small quantities, specified as
tlve-tenths of one gram per day.
was not injurious to healthy per.
sons. But when the order was is
sued legalizing the use of benzo-
ate, no limitation whatsoever was
made as to the amount of the
drug the packers might use.
Remarkable circumstances attel
ded issuing the order letting
down the bars to the food doperS.
The order was issued on March
3, 1909, and was placed into cir.
euIatlOn March 4, the day Presi-
dent Taft went into office. It
was signed by George B. Cortel
you, Oscar S. Straus and Jamees
Wilson, three cabinet officers. as
required by law. Of the three
men, two were to retire from Of
tlce the next day and actually re-
tired before the scope of their Or
der became known.
This order giving government
sanction to the use of the pro-
duct Of benzOate acid meant that
We were going back 5000 years,
Tor benzoin or its products had
not been used in the preservation
OF flesh since the Egyptians had
stopped embalming their deead.
Chemist Floyd W. Robinson.
one OF DR.. Wiley's prominent as
slstants, recently appeared as a
witness against benzoate in an
action brought by the state of In
diana to prevent the sale of foods
containing benzoate, and before
DR.. Wiley had a chance to inter-
vene RObisOsOn'S dismissal "for
the good of the service" followed.
Find the Influence that was
powerful enough to have the
three cabinet officers issue the or.
deer legalizing the doping of
foods" say DR.. Wileys friends,
"and you will learn the identity

Washington July 22.-Did Pres
1dMt Taft throw open Controller
bay under conditions especially
designed to permit the Morgan
GQggenheim interests-and nc
Other-tO gObble up this richest
OF the Alaska land prizes before
anyone else could have a chance
to fileH
Thi is the big Important ques
taon to which the House commit
Zee on expenditures in the inter
ior department is seeking to an
swer.
=. If such was not the deliberate
plan Of the Administration, why
were these lands thrown open by
such unusual prOceedure-by a
secret executive order instead of
by proclamationnY
Another query: If there was
no. conspiracy between the ad-
mnStrattion and the big ex-
plotting interests, h ow does it
come that Spectacular Ryan, sup
posed agent of the Morgan-Gug
} genheimS, alone knew of tthe is
Soance Of President Taft's Sc
crst (?) order and was able to
file a soldiers scrip on 100 rods
OF Controller bay. water front
within three days after President
Taft signed the order eliminating
the land from the national forest
2 and before any other man could
have known of. the order.
} Another extraordinary feature
OF the case is this: The unvarible
rule has been to give 60 days no.
dce before any claimant could
tile on. this land, but, according
70 Mr.. bennett of the General
Land Office, when the Presidents 's
order first came to him the 60
day provision was in it, and when
he net saw the order there was
no time allowed whatveer for no.
tlce to the public-nOt even a
day.
That there was actually an I'M
derStanding between the admin
StratiOn and the men who were
to profit by the President S amaz-
ng secret order is not a state of
affairs so remarkable to those
who have been closely following
things in Washington. There have
been precedentS exactly parallel
mg such a performance. When
the railroad regulation bill was
sent to the last congress by the
President, the public was in absO-
dute Ignorance of its contents. But
the fact developed later thatt al
though the PreSidnet had not seen
lit. to take the public into his con
i.tidence, he had allowed the rail
road interests not only to sug-
geSt the lines along which the bill
should be framed, and to Load it
, with jOkerS against the public
interest, but to actually 0. K. the
bill before the people were even
permitted to know that its prep
GRAFTON was contemplated.
Before the investigation into
thus newest Alaska land jugglery
is finished it promises to develop
a condition of affairs beside
which the attempted theft of Al
aSka coal lands is incOnSequential
The probe is in charge of Rep
reSentative James NJ. Graham of
Illinois, one of the really big men
. IN the Democratic house, whose
career from the very first day
me entered Congress has stamped

Wall Street.

New York, May 16.-The decision
of the supreme court Ct the United

company caused an awakening of the
stock market from a long period of
inactivity, and prices went up with
rush at the opening.
Gains ranged from large fractions
to nearly three points, and the mar
ket was very active.
Standard Oil opened on the curb at
675, loss of four points; but few
minutes later more than recovered
the loss, selling at $50.
On the stock exchange there were
wide openings in several Of the more

ic advanced the same amount on
heavy dealing.
Secondary prices were lower, profit
taking sales appearing in sufficient
volume to set values back sharply.
United States Steel reacted a point.
The market soon adjusted itself to a
lower level, then began creeping grad
ually upward, with activity increasing
largely on the rise. Buying was by
snort interests and on an enormous
scale.
Bull operators took large lines Of
stock with renewed confidence.
The largest gains of many months
were made this morning in the stock
market which interpreted the Stan

OFFICERS BELIEVE HE IS THE
BURGLAR WHO ENTERED

He Answers Exact Description as
Given BY Dr.. Howell the Day After
He Was shct--Many Stolen Arti-
cies Identified.

1t is the firm belief of Assistant
Chief cf Police Welchar, as well as
other memhers of the police depart

Sam Wilson, that not only has one of
the most notorious thieves in the his
tory of the city been captured, but
that it will later develop that he Is
the negro who entered the nome of
DR.. G. G. Howell and shot him in a
conflict which tue nogro and the dem
tist had.
Officer Wilchar states that the ne
gro answers in every particular the
exact description given by DIR. Howell
AS socn as he was arrested it was
noticed that he answered the descrip-
tion and the officers at once came to
the conclusion that he was the negro
who attempted to take the life of the
dentist
1t will be remembered that several
months ago negro entered the house
of DR.. Howell early in the morning.
He went into the room of the dentist,
it was stated, and was then discover
ed. The dentist reached for a SHOT,
gIIfI, hut before he could use it he and
the negro clinched and in the strug-
gle for the possession of the gun DR..
Howell was shot in the food, He was
carried to the hospital and it was ne
cessary to amputate the wounded
member. t.-t.-It.-iA
The following day Dr.. Howell gave
full description of the negro and
Wilson answers it almost to the let
ter.
Many people visited the city Jail
yesterday and looked over the two
drayloads of stolen articles recovered
from the negro's home en- Monday,
and many Of those. who had lost vari-
Gus articles during the past several

STANDARD WILL
OBEY THE DECREE

POSITION WILL BE OFFER
ED TO DECISION.

New York, Moy 16.-The Standard
Oil company's first word on the de-
cision against it yesterday in the SUI
preme court of the United States
came today.
1t makes two points clear:
First-There will be no contumacy
by the company. 1t purposes to obey
the decree.
Second-It will be some time be-
fore reorganization plans are given
out.)
The company insisted throughout
that no plans were formulated in ad-
vance of the decree.
A statement by General Solicitor
Elliott for the company, takes the
same attitude. He said: Having
only before us press reports of Chief
Justice Whites oral opinion and re-
marks of Justice Harlan, and not hav-
ing seen the courts opinion in full, it
is impossible to make a lengthy state
ment.
THE full opinion must be read and
studied by my associates and myself
before it can be intelligently dealt
with
''It may be said that the Standard
Oil company will obey the courts de-
cree. and that all companies embrac-
ed in the courts decree will carry
on their business as usual, under the
direction of their own officers and
through their own corporate argani-
aztion.'
