"Testifying before the House Committee

culture. Or. Harvey w Wiley. chief chem
ist and pure food expert, asserted That
the statement made by the Personnel Board,
upon which was based the recommendation
that he be permitted to resign from the gov
eminent service was false. That the letter
on the strength Of which that action was
taken was written by Dr. H. H. Rusby but
never signed or sent and that the contract
for Or. Rusbys services, which has been
complained cf as Illegal, never actually was
entered into. That the letter was mutilat-
ed before being made public, clause being
eliminated which showed that the contract
complained Of could not become operative

san Francisco, Aug. 19.-The campaign
for the primary election for Mayor is in
teresting San Francisco deeply. Mayor
Mccarthy for more than a whole year has
been perfecting his organization, until now
he has a machine that is superior to ABE"
Ruefs I'm the latter's best days. A system
of collections from every officeholder, no
matter how humble, brings in thousands of
dollars every week. Each man must give
up one days pay a month or lose his job.
But Mccarthy counted on having the vote
against him split In two as it was at the
last election. Now it looks as though the
solid vote OF property owners and those
who care for the credit\of the city will be
cast for James Rolph, jr.
