cent. with the sister ship Arkansas q
close second at 4os37 per cent.
North Dakota Unfortunate.
1t was said the North Dakota probably
would have led all the ships but for the
fact that she had been obliged to 60 to
the navy yard for repairs at an mop
perfume moment.

now are regarded as equal in importance
| to gun practice. the Idaho again heads
the list with a percentage Of 81. .18S. lead

BLOW FOR
PATENT MEDICINES
UNITED STATES WINS CASE UN-
DER THE AMENDED PURE
FOOD LAW

Denver Colo, July 30 United
States District Attorney Harry e. Kel-
ly announced today that the govern
ment had won the first prosecution
brought under the sherley amend
ment to the pure food law. On de-
fault judgment large quantity of
Stramoline, an alleged cure for tuber-
culosis, was condemned and destroyed
The Sherley amendment was enact
ed by congress following the decision
Of the United States supreme court
in the famous Johnson case, in which
it was held that false claims as to the
curative properties Of a medicine did
not constitute 4salatioa cf the pufe
food and drug at unless the label
bore false statements regarding the
constituents Of the contents Of the
package. The sherley amendment
specifically makes it unlawful to print
false and fraudulent statements as TO
the curative effects Of the medicine.
Under this law suit was brought
in the strsmoline case. The manu-
featuring company failed to appear.
and the Judgment was given to the
government by default. Just after the
judgment was rendered, instructions
were received from the department Of
justice at Washington to file an
amended petition, charging that the
title cure for consumption was in
reality false claim as to the consti-
tuents Of the medicine. This would
have brought the suit to an Issue on
the law. The order was received too
late to be acted upon.

THERE BY ACCIDENT

Washington, July 30 Charging that
democratic leaders have broken their
tariff promises, made to the working
people of New England before the last
national election, Senator George P.
Mclean of Connecticut assailed the
Underwood-s Simmons bill in the senate
today.
Recounting the campaign in Connec-
ticut, directed particularly against
Representative Ebenezer Hill of the
ways and means committee, Senator
Mclean quoted from speeches by Ma
iority Leader Underwood, Secretary
of Commerce Redfield, Representative
Reilly and Governor S. E. Baldwin,
whom he quoted as assuring the mill
workers that the democratic tariff
would look after the differences in
cost of production here and abroad
THE protection democrats have
tried to compromise with the free
trade democrats, and this, of course, is
impossible Senator Mclean continu-
ed You cannot compromise with
arithmetic or the. compass. IL 2e per
cent does not protect, ten per cent
will not protect. My complaint is that
the democratic party has broken its
sacred promise to the people of Con-
necticut. This / have shown from
the lips Of those democrats who alone
had authority to do the promising. If
adequate protection is found in any
rate contained in this bill, it is there

formally presented to the operators
at meeting "a Houghton today. Gen.
eral P. L. Abbey Of the Michigan mi
litia, and Sheriff James Crune OF
Houghton county represented the
state, and JAMES MacNaughton and
Frederick vi Denton. general mana
gers Of the Calumet and Hecla and
Copper Range consolidated compan-
les, represented The employers.
AS had been predicted, the mine
managers explained that unuer no cir
cumstances would they take any ac-
ton that even Indirectly might be
construed as recognition Of the West
ern Federation Of Miners; that the
companies were willing to confer
with their own employees, either in
dividually or through committees,
provided the men came to them as
employees, and that under such condi-
tions they could not see the necessity
of asking the men 10 send represent
atiyes all the way to the state CAPT
tai.
The mine managers said they were
acting under orders received from
their boards Of directors in Boston.
While the conference was in Sos
sion the strike board managers were
increasing their efforts to start sur
face and underground work A good
" portion of ll4e shop employees Of
the Calumet ane Heela company re-
turned to their tasks, pumps were
started at the deep Red Jacket shaft
and the work OF draining the other
conglomerate shafts was continued.
These activities. as well as similar
work at other mines in the district
were conducted under heavy guard Of
state troops.
Many Of the strikers have begun
to show that the operations of the
militia are trying their tempers. The
situation on the south range, where
the Copper Range Consolidated in
terests are paramount. was reported
especially thfeatening.

Calumet, Mich, July 30.-A crucial
incident in the copper mine strike
was scheduled for development to-
day, the operators having been asked
by General P. L. Abbey to consider
proposals emanating from Lansing
that a conference between employers
and employees be held in the govern

panies, it was freely predicted, would
be none too friendly to the plan, in
asmuch as the operators considered
1t would place them in the position
of recognizing the Wesern federation
to at least some degree.
They were chary Of endorsing the
scheme also because its pronounce
ment was coincident with the pres
ence in Lansing of G. b. Masoner
