KILLING OF CASH AN ACCIDENT
Coroner's Jar' Absolves Railway
Employes from 'Alt '
Blame.
The Inquest held yesterday morning ty
Justice Carson, acting In the absence of
Coroner Treynor, over ths body of John li.
Cash, killed by a Rock Island passengsr
train Sunday morning near ths Union Pa
clflc Transfer depot, resulted In the Jury
bringing In a verdict to the effect that
Cash's death was purely accidental. H.
J. Palmer, P. H. Petersen and T. A. Eaten
comprised the jury.
P. J. Cullltan and C. E. Davis, engineer
and fireman respectively of the train which
atruck 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 ths train. Both the engineer and
fireman noticed him, but the engineer's
view was shut oft 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 te film he saw that the engine
would be likely to striks htm and he at
once signaled the engineer to stop, and be
also shouted to Cash. The emergency
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 pilot of the engine atruck
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 a
fracture of the base of the brain and a
contusion of ths chest, causing the left
lung to partly fill with blood.
The funeral will be held this afternoon
at 2 o'clock, from the family residence,
3427 Fourth avenue, and burial will be ;n
Walnut Hill cemetery. Rev. Mllford Rlgga,
pastor of the First Baptist church, will

The Des Moines, Iowa Falla A Northern
road may be paralleled by an Independent

for right-of-way over the coal company's
land and the charges the railroad com

DON'T GET IN A SWEAT
Perspiration "sweat" is what the Bible and' we common peo
ple call it is way nature has of driving out of the body refuse
that has no business there. We sweat more in summer, because,
in the overheated bowels, undigested food ferments more quickly
than in winter and produces irritating acids and gases. The bowels,
overworked, try to relieve themselves by violent convulsions,
causing terrible gripes and colics, and diarrhoea! discharges so acid
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-smelting, linen-staining
sweat done away with. Keep your bowels strong all summer with
the pleasant, candy cathartic CASCARETS, that clean the system
and don't allow the excrement to be sweated out through the
pores. Take a tablet every nigbt, before going to bed. They
work while you sleep and make you feel fine ana cool all day.

WASHINGTON, July 21. The law pro
viding a heavy tax on oleomargarine of the
colored, aort has been In operation Jut
three weeks, but, enough has developed from
its operation to show that the oleomargar
ine people have very much the better ot
the argument. Ths butter Interests, whii'h
organized to secure the passage of the law,
were clearly doped., and It is certain that
the operation of the law will stimulate the
sale of Imitation butter.
Jual before the passage ot the bill the
oleomargarine interests secured certain
changes In the wording ot tho measure
which have since permitted them to put
their article on the market a cent and
three-quarters a' pound cheaper than under
the old law. In the sparring thus far for
sdvantage under the enforcement of tho
act the oleomargarine men have proved
themselves superior to the pure butter man
ufacturers and have aecured several opin
ions from the- commissioner of Internal
revenue which will greatly aid them in
fighting their .rivals.
Find Loophole In Lnw.
' Everything has hinged on that part of
the law relating to the artificial coloring
of oleomargarine. The pure butter people
thought If .they could put a heavy tax on
such products It would wipe them out of
existence. Accordingly the farmers through
out the country were organised for the pur
pose of getting a bill through congress em
bodying this Idea. An influential lobby was
orgalnzed and under the plea that the pas
sage of the act would give tbe farmers
i higher prices for tholr cream. Ttemen-
dous pressure was brought to bear on con-
gress to adopt it. A bitter fight was pre
cipitated in congress and for two years
the legislation was staved off. The system
atic campaign among the farmers, however,
had its effect and at laat congress was
forced to pass a ' bill. Some amendments
were made to the original draft before the
vote was taken and one ot them provided
that the 10-cent tax should be upon artifi
cially -colored but teu Instead of upon oleo
margarine that contains any 'ingredients in
tended to give to It a color resembling puro
butter. This loophole is being used by tbe
oleomargarine people as a means ot getting
tbelr wares before the public at even better
ratea than formerly.
' The commissioner of Internal revenue
has decided that the 10-cent tax doea not
apply to oleomargarine, which takes Its
yellow color from an admixture ot pure
butter. Exemption la also made for oleo
margarine that Is colored with various
kinds of vegetable oils, which might be
considered constituent parts ot butter,
such as cottonseed oil. It haa been found
that rich cream will Impart a yellowish
tint to oleo, so that It sells readily. Ths
old law lmpoaed a 2-cent tax on oleo, but
the new act lowers this to one-fourth ot
a cent a pound on oleo not artificially 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 centa over the
old rate.' TO this extent, therefore,' tho
farmers of the country bave lost through
the enactment of - the antl-oleomargarlne
bill.
Palm Oil GIvea Color.
"The oleo people are mighty clever,"
said one of the, officials . of the Internal
revenue office, "and are taking advantage
of every weakness in the bill by which
they cut carry a point. They are con
stantly reaching out for more and more,
and appear never to be satisfied. They
have found that palm oil, a product from
the southern Islands, will give a fine, rich
color to oleo, and are trying to get us to
ssy that oleo so colored Is not subject to
a tax. They argue that It ahould be ex
empt because palm oil la a vegetable prod
uct. Just as cottonseed oil is. The latter
is a constituent part of butter, however,
and is hardly In the aame class with palm
oil. We bave not decided thla point yet,
but will prpbably hold that oleo In which
palm oil is Introduced will be taxed 10
cents, on the ground that It Is used solely
for coloring purposes.
"Another scheme tbst Is being tried by
Armour of Chlcsgo permits the Individual
purchasers to color oleo so that It will de
ceive the sharpest expert. With esch pack
age ot the white product they furnish a
email capsule filled with a vegetable mat
ter. This Is mixed thoroughly with tho
oleo and turns It to the deep, rich golden
bue that distinguishes tbs pure farm pro
duct. The law permits artlflcal 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 paid.
This bsrs bote proprietors from resorting
to tbe scheme, which is said to bs practiced
by many families. The oleo law Is one
of tbe most difficult to administer that baa
tome before this office for many years.. It
Is not clear on many points, and la open
to all ports of contradictions."
Tbe internal revenue official say that
there is a big supply of oleomargarine
stored at the different warehouses ot ths
principal manufacturers. All ot tbls stuff
was put up before July 1, when ths law
went Into effect, and accordingly escaped
tbe 10 cent tax. It Is estimated that tbls
reserve stock will bold out for two or thres
months yet, snd by the time it is exhausted
the oleo makers will probably have hit
upon some scheme that will permit them
to continue the product on sale without
Increasing the coat to the consumers.
