Ratlway The inquest held yesterday morning by Justice Carson, acting in the absence of Coroner Treynor, over the body of John H. Cash, killed by a Rock Island passenger train Sunday morning near the Union Pa- cific Transter depot, resulted in the jury bringing in & verdict to the effect that Cash’s death was purcly accidental. H. J. Palmer, P. H. Petersen and T. A. Eaton comprised the jury. P. J. Cullitan and C. E. Davis, engineer and fireman respectively of the traln which struck Cash, were the principal witnesses. Their testimony showed that Cash was not walking on the track, as first stated, but in the pathway used. by employes on the north side of the north track, with his back to the train. Both the engineer and fireman noticed him, but the engineer's view was shut off when the train was about thirty-three feet from Cash. Fireman Davis testified that at first he thought Cash was far enough away from the track to be out of danger, but when the train got closer to him he saw that the engl once signaled the engineer to stop, and he also shouted to Cash. T mergency brake was applied, but it was too late. A second before the engine struck him Cash turned partly around and closer to the track. The pllot of the engine struck him on the shoulder and threw him about ten feet and down the bank. Dr. J. C. Waterman, who attended Cash at the depot and at the hospital, testified that the man's injuries consisted of & fracture of the base of the braln and a contusion of the chest, causing the left lung to partly fill with blood.

Assistant Division Freight and Passenger Agent Davenport explained that the company needed more track for the interchange of business with the North- western road, and that in consideration of the granting of the ordinance the com- pany would either bring its tracks on Main street to grade or comstruct waterways on Main street to carry off the surface water which at times of heavy rain floods the et at this polnt.

The motor company professes to be ope ating {ts system under the franchise granted to the Omaha, Council Bluffs Suburban Rallway company, which does not require the coipany to issue commutation tickets. Under the ffty-year franchise granted the Omaha & Council Blufts Rall- way and Bridge company, the company wa# required to {ssue these commutation tick- ets, but the courts have held that the fran- chise was void. Superintendent Tarkington could mot be seen last night, but one of the attorneys for the company stated he did not belleve there was any foundation for the report.

PUT ON THE MARKET CHEAPER THAN EVER Makers Got the Colok of (he Product of the Cow by Natural Means and Avold Payment of the Extra Ta WASHINGTON, July 21.—The iaw pro- viding a heavy tax on oleomargarine of the colored. sort has been in operation just three weeks, but enough has developed from its operation to show that the oleomargar- ine people have very much the better of the argument. The butter Interests, which organized to securc the passage of the Iaw, | were clearly duped, and it is certaln that | the oparation of the law will stimulate the sale of imitation butter. Just before the passage of the bill {(he oleomargarine Interests secured certain changes in the wording of the measure which have since permitted them to put | their anticle on the market a cent and threé-quirters a pound cheaper than under the old lAw, In the sparring thus far for advantage under the enforcement of tho act the oleomargarine men have proved themeelves superior to the pure butter man- ufacturers ‘and have secured several opin- lons from the eommissioner of internal revenue which will greatly aid them fa fighting their. rivals. Find Loophole in Law. Bverything has hinged on that part of the law relating to the artificial coloring of oleomargarine. The pure butter people thought it they could put a heavy tax on such products it would wipe them out of exlstence. Accordingly the farmers through- | out the country were organized for the pur+ pose of getting a bill through congress em- bodying this idea. An influential lobby was orgainzed and under the plea that the pas- ® of the act would give the farmers higher prices for their cream. Tremen- dous pressure was brought to bear on con- gress to mdopt ft. A bitter fight was pre- cipitated in congress and for two years | atlc campalgn among the farmers, however, had its effect and at last congress was forced to pass a bill. Some amendments were made to the original draft before the vote was taken and one of them provided that the 10-cent tax should be upon artifi- clally colored butters instead of upon oleo- margarine that cootains any ingredients In- tended to glve to it a color resembling puro butter. This loophole 1s being used by the oleomargarine people as & means of gotting their wares before the public at even better rates than formerly. The commissioner of Internal revenue has decided that the 10-cent tax does not apply to oleomargarine, which takes its yellow color from an admixture of pure butter. Exemption is also made for oleo- margarine that is colored with various kinds of vegetable ofls, which might be considered constituent parts of butter, such as cottonseed oil. It has been found that rich cream. will fmpart a yellowish tint to oleo, g0 that it sells readily. The old law imposed a 2-cent tax on oleo, but the new act lawers this to ome-fourth of a cent a pound on oleo not artificfally col- ored. The oleo people are manufacturing their product nowadays under the head of uncolored oleo, and are required to pay only ‘one-fourth ‘of a cent a pound, thus making a clear gain of 1% cents over the old Tate. To this extent, therefore, the farmers of the country have lost through the enactment of the anti-oleomargarine | il Palm Ofl Gives Color, “The oleo people are mighty elever,” sald one of ths officials of the internal revenue office, “and are taking advantage of every weakness In the bill by which they can carry a point. They are con- | stancly reaching out for more and more, and appear never to be satisfled. They | have found that palm ofl, a product from | the southern islands, will give a fine, rich | color to oleo, and are trying to get us to ay that oleo 0 colored Is not subject (o a tax. They argue that it should be ex- empt because palm ofl is a vegetable prod- uct, just as cottonseed ofl 1s. The latter | 18 a comstituent part of butter, however, and is hardly in the same class with palm | gu oll. We have not decided this point yet, but will probably hold that oleo in which palm ofl ie {ntroduced will be taxed 10 cents, on the ground that it is used solely for coloring purpose: “Another scheme that is being tried by Armour of Chicago permits the individual purchasers to color oleo so that it will de- celve the sharpest expert. With each pack- age of the white product they furnish a small capsule filled with a vegetable mat- ter. This is mixed thoroughly with the oleo and turns it to the deep, rich golden hue that distingulshes the pure farm pro- duct. The law permits artifical coloration of this kind, but when it is practiced by any one for the purpose of supplying other than bis family the usual tax must be pald. This bars hotel proprietors from resorting to the scheme, which 1s said to be practiced by many families. The oleo ldw 1s one of the most difficult to administer that has tome before this office for many years. It is not clear on many points, and is open to all gorts of contradictions The internal revenue officlals say that there is a big supply of oleomargarine | stored at the different warehouses of the principal manufacturers. All of this stuft was put up before July 1, when the law went into effect, and accord'ngly éscaped the 10 cent tax. It Is estimated that this reserve stock will hold out for two or three months yet, and by the time it Is exhausted | the oleo makers will probably bave. hit | upon some scheme that will permit them | to continue the product on sale without | increasing the cost to the consumers. | Ratlway May File Exceptions, ONAWA, Ia, July 21.—(Special Tele- gram.)—In the case of Luella 8.

WHAT TO DO. Many have pimples, spots on the skin, sores ia the mouth :icer falling hair, bone pain tarrh; ~ don’ as to make you sore, and leaving the intestines weak and worn out. Nature assists body-cleaning by sending the filth out through the pores of the skin. It is not safe to stop perspiring altogether but most of the impure matter should be sent out by natural move- ments of the bowels, and the offensive, ill-smelling, linen-staining sweat done away with. Keep your bowels strong all summer with the pleasant, candy cathartic ASCARETS, that clean the system and don't allow the excrement to be sweated out throygh the pores.
