Tribune Answers i'm
Two Damage Suits
Files Justification Pleas in
Nuxated Iron and DR..
Wallace Cases

The Tribune served and filed yester-
day in the Supreme Court its answers
in the libel suits brought by Dae
Health Laboratories, Of Detroit, and
DR.. T. Alphonsus Wallace, of BROOKLYN.
These suits form part Of the E. Virgil
Neal-Nuxated Iron litigation, COM
mcnced after The Tribune had pub
lished an account of Meals arraign-
ment before the Federal court in Buff
falo on indictments charging fraudu-
lent use Of the mails.
Dae Health Laboratories, alleging
that it is the manufacturer of Nux-
ated Iron, a medicine widely advertised d
as marvellous nerve remedy and re-
storer of lost vitality, brought it's suit
for half million dollars damages on
the whole of an article by Samuel Hop
kins Adams, published last December
and headed: False Advertising Chief
'Stimulant' in Nuxated Iron. A Mkt
ure of Fraudulent Claims and Fake
testimonials Backed by Two of the
slickest Quacks in All Patent Medi-
clnedom." The Tribune's answer al
!ieges that Nuxated Iron, distributed d
by Dae Health Laboratories, was a
quack medicine, marketed with cum
nlngly persuasive advertising repr.
sentations, which included unfounded
and eXtravagant claims and faxed in
dorsements. The pleading goes on to
say that the chief danger Of the con-
coctlon was the effect which the adver-
tising representations were calculated
to have in lulling large numbers of
credulous victims into false sense of
security that the preparation actually
had the claimed curative powers.
DR.. Wallace's more modest claim for
100000 damages is based upon a small
portion of the same article, which he
alleges charged him with quackery.
The Tribune's pleading alleges that the
doctor lndorsed Nuxated Iron and that,
in publicly lending his name and
recommendation as an aid in the sale of
NuXated Iron, under unwarranted or
extravagant representations of cura-
tive or therapeutic value, he was a
quack.
In each case The Tribune. standing
firmly on the ground that all it pub
lished was true and justfable, pleads
In its answers as it's main defence an
Affirmative defence in justification.
Meals own suit, brought on an
article published in April, headed:
Meal of NuXated Iron Fame Held on
Fraud Charge" was answered several
weeks ago by Sackett, Chapman e.
Stevens, attorneys for The Tribune,
which published an account of that
judicial proceeding in June.

Discord
America Was Warned
Envoy Declares Nippon Was
Glad to Join Allies, Not
Because Of Treaty

BOSTON, July e.--Viscount Ishii,
Japanese Ambassador, speaking to-day
at luncheon given by Mayor Andrew
J. Peters, declared that the German
Emperor was responsible for the "yel-
low peril" in the United States and for
an extensive anti-American propaganda
campaign in Japan. Two years ago, at
Toxic, he said, he told the American
Ambassador he thought outside infIu-
ences were at work to create unfriendly
feeling between Japan and America,
but that he was not then in q position
to state definitely the name Of the per-
son he suspected as the instigator.
The ambassador reiterated that ia
pan would fight with the Allies until
international justice and democracy
had been established.

Ambassador Ishi said
II remember vel! about two years
ago l talked at the Foreign Office in
Toxic with your ambassador. I asked

certainly did, that some outside inf1u-

occurring between Japan and America.

"Now, gentlemen, beg you to glance
at the text of the Anglo Japanese al
lance treaty. The stipulations. so far
as they go, contain no direct bearing
on an event taking place in Europe.
Japan, had she SO elected, might have
kept herself aloof without an ostensible
breach of faith with England.
Not Forced Into War
with her meagre natural resources
and the poor state of her finances and
foreign trade, what necessity was there
for Japan to embark on a perilous war
against formidable foe?
Japan, however, took the matter in
more conscientious way. In the opin-
ion of her statesmen, the dominant pur-
pose of the alliance was the peace of
the Far East, and the peace of the Far
East, in their opinion, could not be

PARIS, July 6.-The price of horse
flesh, which has risen extraordinarily
lately because it can be sold on three
meatless days in the week, has been
regulated by an official decree of the
Ministry of Agriculture. Horse meat
quotations are at the same level as
those for the best cuts of beef. Thus,
the choicer cuts of horsemeat. which
were from 40 to so cents a pound in
June. 1917 now are 70 cents.
Horse dealers and wholesale butch
ers have been buying horses at public
sales for their flesh, Notwithstanding
the fact that the animals were fit to
work Farmers were outbid in their
efforts to obtain them The official de-
cree stipulates that the retail price of
horse meat shall be one franc a pound
and intimates that there soon will be
