SEEK NEW TRIAL Of
OLEO. MOONSH|NE CASE
CONVICTED MEN ARE HELD ON
$4,000 BAIL-CHARGED WITH
DEFRAUDING GOVERNMENT.

Columbus, o.. July pa hearing
will be given in the United States
District Court tomorrow on the mo-
ton for a new trial for the four of
ficials of the Capital City Dairy Com
pany, who were found guilty of de-
frauding the government out of reve-
nue. taxes in excess of a million dol
lars. This case. one of the famous
"oleo mOonshine' cases being prose
cuted by the government, involves
several wealthy families in this sec.
ton.
The convicted men, who are out on
bail of 100000 each, are Dennis Kelly.
a millionaire; NJ. Leo Corbett, w. II.
Erbst and w. H. Kelly, all officials
and agents of the dairy company.
They were found guilty on July 13 by
the jury which heard the case. Their
trial began on June %.
Kelly has agreed to refund $780,
900 in evaded taxes to the govern
ment, and has already paid half OF
this sum. The government will press
its claim, it is understood. against the
Pirrung estate to collect money al
legged to have been paid in illegal divi-
dends by the dairy company of which
Henry c. Pirrung was half owner. Suit
for this restitution is pending.
The action against the Columbus
men is part of the governments cam
palgn against oleomargarine men who
it is claimed, have defrauded the fed
eral treasury out of some $4,000. 900
These funds extend back for thirteen
years. Already nearly a million of the
evaded taxes have been collected
Previous to the Capital CITY case ~
Vlolators of the OleOmargarine law
have been convicted, and % were sent
to prison. 1t is claimed by Internal
Revenue Commissioned Osborn that
100000 tons of colored oleomargarine
have been manufactured and fraudu
lently sold as uncOlored oleo. More
alarming still to the pure food work.
ers is the information that much of
this product has reached the consum.
ers as butter.
The loss to the government is rep
resented in the difference between
thn rpVoOua +av ON oOTo,o1 49,, -
colored oleomargarire For the form
er the tax is 10 cents per pound and
FOR the uncolored it is 4 cents per
pound. The government claim that
the Capital City and other makers of
colOred OeOmargarine have paid only
one quarter of a cent per pound in
taxes when they should have paid ten
cents per pound
The governments story of how it
was defrauded was brought out in the
opening statement of Special Prose
cutor Childs when the case against
the Columbus men began last month
He declared that the oil used by the
local men was blend of palm, SEES
same and cottonseed oils in about
equal proportions. A barrel Of this
oil, traced from Bayonne. N. J.. to
Columbus, was submitted in evidence
by the government. The prosecutor
claimed that w II. Kelly. one of the
convicted men, used the name o.
Stating in arranging shipments of the
oil TO Columbus.
1t was also brought out that officers

CHRISTMAS TREE TRADE GOOD
Chester Reports Big Shipments-Fine
Weather for Fall Farm Work.

CHESTER, Dee. g. - Not in mary
years have the farmers throughout
this section of the state known so
good fall for doing their late work.
Several silos have been built and
their use is becoming much more gen
eral from year to year. During the
past season alfalfa growing has been
made a speciality by more of the far
mers than usual and the results have
been wonderfully encouraging; in
some eases four good cuttings have
been made on the same ground.
Fancy Holstein raising is also a
speciality with goodly number locally.
Half a dozen farmers have good herds,
some of the COWS having been pur-
chased at large prices, and another
year will sec a great increase in reg
istered Holsteins in this section.
Thousands Of Christmas trees are
being cut in Windham. Andover, Lon
donderry and Weston and delivered at
this railroad station for shipment to
the large cities. Most of the farmers
are glad to sell them but in some in
stances they cannot be bought.
The late rains have filled the springs
and streams and no trouble is antici-
pated for lack of water as has been the
case during the past three winters.

When a cold grips your system it is

the afternoon with him, and talked
about secular things, but never spoke
to him about his soul. During the night
he was summoned again to the house,
