BOILED HAM ONLY
Shoulders Don't Go Says Munic.
ipal Food Department.
May Take Drastic Actor
Against Merchants Here.

Boiled shoulders are not boiled
hams. This decision was handed down
this morning by the municipal depart
rnent of food inspection. with warning
that drastic action will he taken
against merchants who Lalm off
shoulders for hams warning fol-
lows several complaints filed with the
focd inspection department during
the past week.
while objection is not made to the
quality of the shoulders. the food de-
partment this morning neld that rHer-
chants selling shoulders for hams are
practicing n deception that works a
hardship on merchants more careful
in specifying various cuts in their
stocks. Price of shoulders is consid-
erably below quotations on boiled ham
and several merchants have COM
planned that competitors are quoting
boiled ham at reduced prices but sub
stitute shoulder for the product ad-
vertised.
Not With Favor.
Merchants against whom complaints
have been filed are being notified to-
day that the food department is not
looking with favor on substitution of
boiled shoulder for boiled ham. Dras-
tic action will not be taken until mer-
chants have been first advised to dis
continue the deception practiced on
their customers.
1t is not anticipated that merchants
will continue to offer substitutions fol-
lowing warning from the health de-
partment to discontinue the practice.
Little difficulty has been experienced
heretofore, by inspectors who have
found merchants practicing salesman
ship not in good standing with the de-
partment.
Some time ago, the food inspection
department discouraged practice of
before head and legs were chopped off.
Following weighing the dressing would
be completed. A first warning how
ever, broke up the practice.

after compiling figures which he used
as a basis.
The coast to coast hike as sought
by the railroads is being threshed out

from all parts Of the country fighting
it. J. L. Bristow. chairman Of the

Kansas and this city is staging its
big fight against the rates from Pa
cific coast points east. These tariffs
include an increase from So z cents }
s cents on canned goods and similar
commodities in car load lots. The in
crease means a hike Of approximately
Sl35 a ca. between Pacific coast and
Kansas points. 1t is estimated that
Kansas jobbers, excluding points on
the Missouri river. handle about ESQ
or 500 cars of those goods annually.
Missouri river points handle a similar
number OF cars.
And the foregoing isn't the only
thing worrying Topeka jobbers. They
ordered their fall and winter stocks of
canned goods from Pacific coast points
some time ago AS is the custom,
they put men on the road and the
most OF the goods for which orders
have been placed have been sold. They
were sold under the present freight
rates The orders have not been de-
Ivcred- In fact, they have not even
been packed. Because of this situa-
ton the tobbers stand to lose about
$4,000 on shipments already ordered
and sold but not shipped. The rates
applied for by the railroads are to be-

MEX|CANs FIRE ON
 BORDER PATROL
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

FL PASO. Texas. Dec. 27.-A lively fusillade broke out shortly after mid night to the west of the city where the Kentucky outposts are situated. Residents in the neighborhood were awakened by the firing and heard bullets singing overhead.
 From a report received by the mili- tary authorities some Mexicans in the bed of the Rio Grande river open ed fire on the Kentuckians, who an swered with their rifles
 This outpost wGs fired on several nights ago from the Mexican side.
 The outpost was manned by a detachment from Company l. of the Third Kentucky infantry under Lieu tenant Hale.
 A regular army officer, who was on the scene at the time. said he saw and heard no evidence showing there was ony shots from the Mexican side. But Lieutenant Hale said he dis tinctly saw three rifle flashes before hls men began to answer
 Estimates from the point differed, some saying that as many as thousand rounds were fired. but oth- CTS put it at only a few hundred The fire was so rapid by the Americans, however. that residents in the neigh oorhood thought 1t was a machine gun.
 Captain E. W. Clarke. in command of company, affirmed that he not only heard shots and saw flashes on the Mexican side, but he also saw some MeXicans outlined when the headlight or street car crossing a bridge lighted u" the bed of the river below.
 About four shots were fired at our detached post when one of the men struck a match to light a cigarette ,' said Captain Clarke, the detachment had fired about fifteen shots when we joined in
 ''I made out several men afoot and on horse running up the river gorge when the electric car sent it's headlight beams against them. Besides this fir ing seemed to come from several oth- CT points. We kept up our fire until we were sure the MeXicans were driV- en well out. Several hundred shots were fired in ali by us"
