Violation of Safety Appliance Law
Charged aid Attempt to Recover
Penallles Will Be Made.
Washington. Attorney General
Moody haH directed that suits be
brought aga|nst a large number of
railroad companies to recover penal
ties for viohtion of the safety appli
ance law thjough failure to keep their
equipment in proper condition. The
largest number of violations attrib
uted to any road is 52 against the At
lantic Coast Line Railroad company.
A statement issued by the department
of justice says:
"Attorney General Moody is very
much in earnest in the enforcement of
these laws vrhich were enacted for the
purpose of saving life and limb. In his
letter to the various United States at
torneys under date of December 30,
1904. he said:
"The government is determined
upon a strict enforcement of these
•statutes, which ivere enacted for the
promoting of tti* safety of the trav
eling public in general, as well as for
the protection of railway employes.
Therefore, any case of violation which
is brought to your attention by the
Interstate commerce commission or its
inspectors, or by other parties, must
be promptly ani carefully investi
gated. and suit (or the statutory pen
alty be instituted and earnestly
pressed, if in your judgment the facts
.justify the course.
" 'You are instructed accordingly,
nnd you are expected to be vigilant
aid active in the matter."
OIL HEADS ARE SAFE.
Little Likelihood of Indictments
Against Rockefeller and Other
High Standard Officials.
Washington.—Although the de
partment of justice has announced
that it proposes to begin criminal pro
ceedings against the officials of the
Standard Oil, the intimation is given
that it is doubtful if indictments may
be found against such men in the
Standard Oil company as .John D.
Rockefeller, H. H. Rogers and John
D. Archbold.
An official of the department of jus
tice has indicated that while the gov
ernment would press the prosecutions
vigorously, he did not have an Idea
that the officials cf the Standard Oil
•company would be reached, in crim
inal proceedings, any more than the
presidents of railroads, personally, ara
reached through similar proceedings.
"It may be," he said, measuring
from the ground with his hand, "that
we may get some of the officials half
way up. We are not after mere clerks,
but. if responsible officials have been
violating the law, we desire to bring
them to book."
The Standaqd Oil company will be
prosecuted as a corporation for viola
tion of the Elkins law forbidding re
bates or the giving or receiving of
discriminating rates. The method of
prosecution adopted successfully at
Kansas City before Judge Smith Mc-
Pherson, which resulted in the convic
tion of the packing houses, is to ba
followed to a certain extent in the
light against the Standard Oil.
MURDERS HIS BRIDE" TO BE
Young Man Then Shoots Himself in
the Presence of Guests Assem
bled for the Wedding.
Comfort, Tex,—ln the presence of
the assembled wedding guests at
the home of his intended bride, Joseph
Reir.hardt, who was to have married
her, shot and killed Miss Ernestine
Kutrier Tuesday evening and then
shot himself, with probably fatal re
sults.
Young Rtinhardt walked into the
rooSi in which Miss Kutzer and the
guAts were assembled, drew a pis
tol from his pocket and pointed it at
his sweetheart. She held up her hand
'as if to ward off the danger and threa
shots were fired at her. The flrst bul
let entered her heart, killing her.
Reinhardt then turned the pistol upon
himself and fired two bullets into
his own breast. The cause of the
tragery is not known. The theory of
neighbors is that the young man was
domftited. The people were highly re
spected.

WORK ACCOMPLISHED BY CONGRESS;
IMPORTANT LEGISLATION ENACIEO
Washington. lmportant meas
ures extending federal regulation
and control have been enacted at the
flrst session of the fifty-ninth congress,
now vapidly drawing to a close.
The railroad rate and the meat in
spection bills will soon become laws.
The pure food bill was agreed upon
by the conferees for the senate and
house. The house bill was taken as
a basis of agreement, and into this
were grafted many of the important
sections of the senate measure.
There has been no marked division
on party lines in effecting the above
results, the differences being only as
to ways and means rather than as to
policy.
Besides branching off into this new
field of legislative endeavor, the pres
ent session of congress has made it
self important in other ways. It ha-j
added <>ne, and perhaps two new states
to the union and by so doing has dis
posed o!' four territories.
Graat results to the people are ex
pected from the removal of the tax on
denatured alcohol, and if predictions
are fulfilled, heat, light and power are
to be supplied by alcohol made from
the cornfields of the country, from
sugar beets and siiijar cane, from fruits
and ether vegetation.
By si deft turn of legislative points
of view, the questions which have per
plexed congress for some time regard
ing the Panama canal have been set
tled. The president may dig a lock
canal as fast as he pleases. A joint
resolution was agreed to requiring
canal supplies to be made of American
manufacture.
Congress has not dwelt with the for
eign situation to any extent. An act
making a much needed reorganization
of the consular service was passed.
Nothing war. done in the Santo Domin
go controversy and the legislation af
fecting our colonial possessions was
meager and unimportant, although
tariff revision for the Philippines re
ceived the attention and approval of
the house, and an act was passed re
vising the tariff collected by the Phil
ippine government. A coinage act for
the islands also was passed.
A large number of bills were intro
duced In the two houses. The calendar
recoris that the number has reached
nearly 20,000, 600 more than were in
troduced during the entire three ses
sions ot the last congress.
Before discussing the number of acts
passed, it is interesting to note that
with all the strenuous exertions of an
appropriations committee in the house,
with a new chairman —Representative
Tawney—it has been impossible to
hold the appropriations down to much
less than $900,000,000, although "eco
nomy" was the watchword from the
start.
Although there has been an effort to
prevent the enlargement of what is
known as the "permanent annual ap
propriations," this character of ex
pense has increased during the session
o the extent of nearly $5,000,000, mak
ing a total permanent annual appro
priation of more than $140,000,000. As
It happened, the Increase iri* this ap
propriation came in one day in the
house. The meat, inspection bill car
ried a permanent annual appropriation
of $3,000,000, and the same day the
house passed the bill adding $1,000,000
to a like amount annually for the sup
Murder and Suicide.
Comfort, Tex. —In the pr?senoß of

home of his intended bride. Joseph

Kutzer and then shot himself.
Three Die in Oil Tank.
Waterbury, Conn. —Three men were
drowned In an oil tank here Wednes
day. They were overcome by fumes
and fell in. One man was rescued.
The dead were Eugene Rowly, Fied
Szott and Dennis Sullivan.
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JULY 5, 1906
i port of the state militia. Measures were
introduced on which action will be
pressed at the nest session to repeal a
portion of the permanent annual ap
: prop.-iations ot the government.
Organized labor has succeeded in its
requests ol" the present session of con
gress to the extent of securing the
enactment of what is known as the
' "employers' liability bill." This enact
ment will make it possible for an em
ploye to secure damages for his injury,
! notwithstanding his own negligence
may have been in part responsible for
that injury.
Another bill which has received the
approval of the senate and will doubt
less become a law before the end of
the session that limiting the lioura
of continuous service of railway train
men to lti consecutive hours' work, to
be followed by 10 hours' rest. The
much agitated eight-hour bill received
a favorable vote from the labor com
mittee of the house, but too late to
secure action at the hands of con
gress. The anti-injunction bill was
postponed in committee until the next
session of congress upon a direct vote
on that proposition.

"At all times and to all people I am

would go and see a physician in Erie.
1 In* reply was that I could go anywhere,
but a case oi eczema like mine could not
lie cured; that I was too old (SO). I went,
to an eminent doctor in the city of Erie
and treated with him for six months, with
like results. I had read of the Cuticura
Keinedies, and so I sent for the Cuticura
Soap, Ointment, and Resolvent, and con
tinued taking the Resolvent until I had

two baths a day, and at night I let the

Ointment with great effect after washing
in warm water, to stop the itching at
once. 1 am now cured. The Cuticura
treatment is a blessing, and should be

Save the Babies.
INFANT MORTALITY is something frightful, We can hardly realize that of
all the children born in civilized countries, twentytwo per cent., or nearly
one-quarter, die before they reach one yearj thirtyseven per cent., or more
than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen!
We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma
jority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these
infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures
and soothing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium, or
morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity
they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria
operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of
Chas. H. Fletcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the
pores of the skin and allays fever.
