ANOTHER AUTO BURNED
Heine EEichoff's Overland" Totally
Destroyed by Fire Monday
Night

Heine Efchoff's automobile with
which he has given good pleasure to
so many of his friends, has gone up
in smoke; at least enough of it has
disappeared to cause the remainder
to be consigned to the scrap pile.
The event occurred about 1880
o'clock Monday night while Chauf-
four Marcus Murry and Edward
Koehler were in the machine en-
route home from Unity. When they
were short distance from Unity
flames suddenly burst out from un-
der the hood and over the wind
shield scorching the clothing of the
occupants who jumped out as quick
ly as they could, not stopping to
shut off the power. The machine
ran up the road for quite distance
before turning off and running
against an obstruction. An attempt
was made to smother the flames but
without avail la
The young men left the ruins by
the wayside and were returned to
Cairo by an autoist who came by
shortly after the accident had hap
pened. The machine was insured
for small amount. 1t was an over
land auto, the one which Mr.. Eich-
off won in The Bulletins contest
last December.

RED TAPE IN INDIANA
Hoosier officials Had to Get Court
Order Before DR.. Wiley Could
Aid Them in Pure Food
Fight in Indiana.

Washington, Aug. S.--That Presi-
dent Taft did not refer to the benzo-
ate of soda decision as a policy OF
his administration and did not indi-
cate any objection to having DR.
Wiley testify as to experiments that
he said he had disclosed to be a
harmful preservative In food was
the testimony today of James Bing-
ham former attorney general of In.
diana, before the house committee
investigating expenditures In the
agriculture department.
Bingham and State Chemist Bar
nard who also testified had to get
an order from the court In 1909 be-
fore they could take the testimony
of DR.. Wiley and his associates to
aid them in an Indiana suit over the
state pure food law.
He testified that Solicitor McCabe
had advised Dr. Wiley and his asso-
ciates that they could not be com
PEELED to testify. Rather than force
the matter into the courts Bingham
went to President Taft to see why
the latter had any objections TO
Wiley giving testimony that might
bring the Rensen boards findings
and Secretary Wilson'S order into
question.
Bingham said President Taft
treated 1t as department matter
and saw no reason why the govern
ment chemists should not give their
testimony.
