LIFE TO STOP RUNAWAY

Through the quick action and alert
ness of Richard Boylan, a member of

might have resulted seriously for
passengers on Plank road car was
averted when he stopped a team of
runaway horses at the corner of Mar
ket and Washington streets. The
horses, attached to a heavy truck

settings, were frightened while stand
ing in front of the Orpheum Theatre.
They started through Washington

lop, the wagon swaying to and fro.
Boylan was standing at the corner
of Market and Washington streets.
Just as the team was about to swerve
into Market head-on into Plank
road car Boylan made leap for the
bride of the nearest horse. He was
dragged about ten feet, and the mad
dened brutes halted just as Boylan
was In danger of being crushed be-
tween the wagon-pole and the trolley
car. After the team was stopped sew
eral pedestrians ran to the fireman's
assistance, but he was uninjured, and
shortly after was at his post in the

informed that no dogs are allowed in

FINDS JOKER IN
CATTLE TARIFF
Congressman Kinkead, of Jer-
sey City, Claims 1t Would
Bar Outside Shipments.
Star Bureau,
Metropolitan National Bank Bldg,


WASHINGTON, Aug. 20;
Although the pending tariff bill
now puts all meat and cattle on the
free list, Congressman Eugene F. Kin
kead has discovered an alleged Joker
In the bill. which, he declares, would
have the effect of practically shut
ting meat from other countries out
of the Americansmarket.
DIR. Galloway, of the department of
agriculture, agrees with Mr. Kinkead
as to the effect of the joker, and the
Jersey congressman today asked the
President to take the matter up and
have the bill amended at once to
remedy the situation. The President
promised to do So
Kinkead began his fight for free
meats and cattle in his first term in
Congress-, and has at all times been
active in efforts to change the laws
to break the monopoly and high prices
of the beef trust 1t was largely due
to his efforts that President Wilson
insisted that meat and cattle be put
on the free list in the Underwood
bill.
Despite the proposed removal of
duties 1t Is the opinion of agricultural
department authorities that the in
depreciation of the meat inspection
laws would bar the importation of
meat from other countries, If the
tariff bill goes through as 1t Is. The
President will urge that an amend
ment be added to the BILL giving inn
ported meat the same standing in this
country as domestic meat, when 1t
comes from countries whose inspec-
ton laws are recognized and approved
by the United States. H. B. w.
