MARTINEZ was tried in the district

to the court of criminal appeals here
and that tribunal affirmed the case
and an appeal was taken to the United

that the Mexican, who it is claimed
was only 16 years of age. had not
been given fair trial and that he
was a citizen of Mexico. The higher
court however, did not sustain this

wilson today personally, by letter,
called the attention of the attorney
general to the general and apparent
ly abnormal imitation of food prices
and asked the department of justice
to conduct an investigation to ascer-
tain corrective measures and whether
there is a conspiracy.
The presidents letter was as fol-
lows:
The rapid and unwarranted in
; crease in the price of foodstuffs in
this country upon the pretext of the
conditions existing in Europe is so
serious and vital matter that take
the liberty of calling your attention
to it.
would be very much obliged if
you would advise me whether there is
under existing law any action which
the department of. justice could take
either by way of investigation or legal
process, and what federal legislation,
if any, would in your judgment be
justifiable and warrantable in the
circumstances. 49,
Il feel that this is matter which
we cannot let pass by without trying
to serve the country. Certainly the
country ought to be defended, if pos
sible, against men who would take
advantage of such circumstances to
increase the price of food and the diff
ficulties of living"
Replying to the presidents letter
today, the encouragement said that
the head of his departments special
agents was instructed today to notify
his entire force to begin an investi-
cation into the subject of food prices.
At the same time the attorney-gen-
eral notified all district attorneys to
cooperate in this movement, which
he said should be able to get at the
true condition.

creeping up. Sugar went up to z
cents pound and in many stores
yesterday was sold at cents pound
or two pounds for Is cents.
]. Ogden Armour in order to back
up his claim that less hogs are being
butchered said that the yards are
working with much-reduced force
of workmen. The Western Electric
Co., according to men laid off there,
has 10000 workers on the street. The
Mccormick harvester works has be-
tween 1000 and 5000 men out. The
Deering binder Irvine plain is shut
down and, including it's foundry, has
laid off more than 5000.
With rising food prices and a grow
ing number of men out of work, the
situation is calling for action and re-
lief measures. The war hit business
in many peculiar spots. The White
Star Line, for instance, has let out
twenty employees in it's loop Offices.
The Pennsylvania Railway, which has

PAID
fine FOR HOBO
Sympathy Aroused by Al
legged Brutality of Rail-
way Train Crew..

The alleged beating up" Of a hobo
near Petersburg cost Ben Blanchard,
a brakeman on the Great Northern
railway $50, and N. P. Nissen. special
agent for the same road, $44.
Peter Kinonen, the hobo, was fined
$40 for. stealing a ride on a railroad
train. This fine was paid by a. collec-
ton which was taken up among the
spectators at his hearing. -.
The two railroad men, it is said.
attacked the hobo without provoca-
ton, kicking him hrutally. about the
body, and INJECTING 4 severe scalp
They were arrested on a charge of
assault and were convicted before JUS
tice Schroeder of Lakota.
c. ]. Murphy of Grand Forks. at
torney for the Great Northern, went
to Lakota on behalf OF. the two rail-
road men. and procured the arrest of
the hobo on a number Of charges. The
only one which was made to stick,
however, was that Of stealing a ride.
The sympathy Of the spectators
were with the man, and they imrnedi-
ately took up a collection more than
sufficient to pay the fine.
The railroad men may appeal the
case to the district court.

IMPORTANT RIGHTS DEFINED.

A decision just rendered by the SUI
prerne court of Connecticut is to the
effect that a judgment for heavy dam
ages obtained by a guest to whom
bad" mushrooms had been served at
a restaurant could not stand. The
contention Of the prosecution, which
had been pronounced valid by the
lower court, was that the service of
food at a public table was under an
implied guarantee as to Its quality.
Not so, declares the supreme court;
the only obligation resting on the
keeper OF a restaurant, hotel, or
boarding house is to exercise reason
aration Of the food he serves. and no
negligence had been proved or ever
charged in this case.
This Is rather disquieting pro-
nouncement, for to the lay mind the
superstition that the seller of food as
ume some responsibility for it's edi-
bility seems a natural and proper one.
Even a layman, however, on reflec-
ton, can see possible weaknesses in
his theory, for food that would pro-
duce serious consequences in the in
terror Of n person might be quite
harmless to another. and no purvey-
or of s~ustenance can be expected to
know what will and what won't
hurt" each one of his patrons.
Incidentally. and in what was ap-
parently an obiter dictum, the Con-
necticut court, in deciding this case,
announced as a general principle that
what a person eating at a public table
bought vas not the right to eat all
set before him or her. even though
the order were given by the card, but
merely the privilege Of satisfying ap-
petite for the time being, so far as the
order given would allow. Whatever
Is left belongs to the host.
Why that should be so Is not very
obvious, for when one buys. for in
stance, the whole Of a steak, why
shouldn't the remainder. If any. be
carried away by the purchaser If so
inclined? Perhaps the answer is that
it isn't done and never was. More
over, the rule enunciated is clearly
right as regards the sugar and salt.
Then need, not offering, is the extent
of sale.
