sELLE SPRINGS WON ITS CASE
Decision OF United States Court W.
OF Wild Interest


The Belle Springs Creamery Com
pany has just won in the United
States Court Of Appeals a case that
has had interest for creamery men
all over the country. In 1914 the
government seized several hundred
pounds Of Belle Springs butter at st.
Louis, claiming that there was In 1t a
fraction too much water for the
weight 1t assessed and collected
through the internal revenue depart
ment tax on it'as adulterated but
ter. The company denied the gov
ernment's contention and claimed
, that the butter was pure creamery
butter up to standard and sued the
government for refund Of the tax. 1t
was tried in the U. 8. district court
at Kansas City last June and the
company won. The government APP
pealed and last week It was heard In
the u. s. Court OF Appeals. at st.
Paul. Bruce G. Hurd, Of Hurd 4
Hurd, the company's attorneys, rep
resented the company, The final
decision was again for the company,
the scourt deciding that the butter
| was pure creamery butter and the
tax was ordered refunded.
In the testimony 1t appeared that
of the 20 samples taken by the gov
eminent were under the regulation
amount of moisture; and II were
slightly above, the greatest amount
being less than one-sixteenth and the
total of all the samples was above
the standard. As a churning is from
700 to 1000 pounds 1t was shown to
be impossible to have every two
gram particle, the amount taken as
test, exactly like every other two
gram particle. Taken as a whole
the butter was found to be above the
standard established by the govern
ment for pure creamery product.
The amount Of the tax was small
but the principle involved was i'm
portant and 1t is highely creditable to
the company to have its product es-
tablished by the court and its stand
ing as a manufacturer Of pure pro-
duct fixed.

He carried the score to deuce on the
next game. but was unable to put across
the two successful strokes which would
have given him the game, set and

way that presages trouble for him when
he meets Richards. who has been going
like a house attire. Richards showed

Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, July FL. - The
American and English track teams had
their final workout preparatory to Sat-
urday's meet to-day In the stadium,
every member of each outfit being pres
emit, but the work being extremely light
for all. The runners simply logged and
the field event men went through just
enough to keep their muscles in trim.
Ford, the English jumper. was out
and will be able to compete. Stallard,
the Cambridge miller. went through his
drill without any sign of lameness. while
McInnes, the distance man, who did his
first work yesterday, showed that he is
in shape in spite of his lay-off He
has done some great cross country rum
ming in England and is the English
teams main hope against Douglas OF
Yald in the two mile run.
The teams were photographed together
to-day, the Americans being i'm their new
uniforms, which consisted OF white shirts
with O crimson III or a blue Y, white
running trunks with red and blue trim
mings at belts. seams and cuffs.
Ambassador Geddes wired the man
agement to-day that he will be unable
to attend the meet because OF OFFICIAL
business in Washington. but his place
will be taken by Consul General Porter
of Boston.
Two days before the meet the Ameri-
cans feel that their chances for winning
are much better than they seemed a
week ago. The fine hurdling of Krog-
ness of Harvard and the condition OF
half miller Campbell and two miller
Douglas of Yale is the cause of the con-
fidence. B. G. d. Rudd, captain or the
Oxford team, stated again o-day that
he would run the three events, hundred.
half and quarter miles. His last quar-
ter here was run in 40 1-5 seconds and
this, IL repeated, will win the event.
The Englishmen's spirits are higher
than they were also. because of the
assurance that McInnes and Stallard
most likely will be nearly at their best.
The teams were entertained at luncheon
to-day by Mayor Peters of Boston and
at the Corinthian Yacht Club at Mar
blehead tonight.
