ably go to Highest Court.

Topeka, Kansas. - The Roosevelt
presidential electors won another
round in the legal battle to get them
off the Republican ticket in Kansas.
Judge w. H. Sanborn. of the United
States circuit court of appeals denied
the injunction asked to prohibit the
names of the eight Roosevelt electors
being placed on the general election
ballot in November.
The case was argued in Denver and
the written decision of Judge Sanborn
was just received by Morton Albaugh,
clerk of the United states circuit
court, here.
Judge Sanborn, in denying the in
junction, held that under a decision of
the supreme court the alleged wrong
full deprivation of citizen OF his right
to vote under the constitution of the
United States, by election officials or
others, presents no cause of action in
equity for an injunction to prevent 1t,
The remedy is at law and not by in

The case was brought three weeks
ago. D. R. Hite, attorney for the Re-
publicans, went to Red Oak, Ia, and
obtained a temporary restraining Or
der from Judge Smith Mcpherson, act
ing for Judge c. Pollock of Kansas.
Judge Pollock was in the East on his
vacation.
Judge Sanborn held that there were
no rights of which any man would be
deprived, which could be considered
by court of equity and that the only
rec6urre the Taft men had was court
of law
D. R Hite, attorney for the Taft
electors, announced that an appeal
would be taken at once. 1t was not
known whether or not the appeal
woull have to go through the United

and then to Tie supreme court.

had been poisoned by trichinae in

Judge Moves in the United States dis
trict court ruled that the packer, not
the middleman or retailer, is re-
sponsible.
THE producer should be held re-
sponsible for the result of negligent
acts which he can readily foresee," the
court said.
"The meat packer who fails to in
spect his products for poisonous para
sites or ingredients knows that poison
will poison those who eat his products

Armour & Comany contended that
manufacturer who deals with the
middleman and not directly with the
consumer owes the latter no duty
whatever except the duty of refrain

ANGRY FISH BITES ANGLER
Brooklyn Man, the Sufferer, Sends
Head to Pasteur Institute, Fear
Ing Rabies.

Whether fish can have dydro-
phobia is question that Fred
Henry of Hancock street, Brooklyn,
would like to have settled, and for
that reason he has sent to the Pas
.teur institute in New York the heao
of pickerel that bit him at Swarts-
wood lake recently, says Newton IN.
j. correspondent of the New York
Press Henry was fishing in a boat
that was a trifle leaky and he took on
his shoes and socks. His first catch
was pickerel weighing three pounds.
When he yanked the fish it Topped
around in the bottom of the boat In
lively fashion.
AS Henry was batting up again he
felt a sharp pain in one of his feet,
and, looking down, saw that the pick
erel had made jump and fastened
Its teeth in his toe He tried to kick
the fish away, but the pickerel held
on and Henry had to use the handle
of his landing net to pry open the
fishs Jaws before he got free OF 1t.
The toe started to swell where the
teeth had punctured it, and Henry be-
came worried. He says he thinks 1t
possible that the pickerel may have
had hydrophobia and as precaution-
airy measure, he sent the head to the
Pasteur institute.
