state had prescribed this test for cleo

Rules Laid Down by Court.

After discussing the various phases Of
the Lackawanna case the court laid
down these general rules
"The railroad company II IL continues
In the business Of mining must absb-
lutely dissociate itself from the coal
before the transportation begins. II
cannot retain the title. nor can It sell
through an agent. II cannot call that
agent a buyer while 50 hamperlng and
restricting such alleged buyer as TO
make him a puppet subject to the con-
trol of the railroad company.
III the railroad sells coal Mt tho
mouth OF the mines II must not only part
with all interest direct or indirect In
the property, but also with all control
over 1t or over those to whom the coal
Is sold at the mines. IL must leave The
buyer as free as any other buyer who
pays for what he has bought.
ut should not sell to a corporation
with officers and offices in common
for the policy OF the statute requires
that instead of being managed by the
same officers they should s~tudiously and
in good faith avoid anything. either in
contract or in conduct. that remotely
savors OF joint action, joint interest or

PURE FOOD LAW UPHELD,
u. g.. supreme Court Amrms Com
NictiOn In Illinois.

WASHINGTON, une 2l.-An opinion
Affirming the conviction OF W. T. Price
OF Minneapolis for violation of the pure
food laws OF Illinois was read to-day by
Justice Hughes OF the United States SUI
preme Court. Price was convicted in
the Municipal Court Of Chicago for SELL
ing Mrs. Prices Canning Compound"
The compound contained horic acid and
1t was agreed that IL was not sold as a
food but as a preservative.
Justice Hughes held that the question
OF whether 'boric scld' was harmful or
MOI was a debatable question and that
the Illinois court was the best judge re-
garding the exclusion of the compound
from within that State. The
court rejected the plea that Price was
engaged in interstate commerce.
The court decided also hat while the
Illinois statute did not mention boric
acid, hut simply prohibited the sale
OF harmful ingredients in food prod
ucts. the highest court Of the State had
construed the law as applying to horic
acid and that there were other Illinois
laws In which boric acid was declared TO
be "unwholesome."
