Committes Appointed Election of Of-
ffcers Will Close the Session.
This mornlne' session of ths national
convention of Food ana Dairy Comrols-
, aloneif was held at the Odd Fellows'
Temple, First and Alder streets. It wa
opened by Hon. J. E. Blackburn, of Ohio,
wlio delivered ah address on "Adulterated
" toffee. Glased and Otherwise." In part
Mr. Blackburn aaid that coffee In the
American home la almost a necessity as
statistics show that from t to 11 pounds'
of coffee la consumed per capita tn the
United States every year, and tnpat of
. this ooftee is adulterated. A common
form of adulteration is to mingle bad
berries with good, and color the same
- unlformally. The coloring in coffee may
' be seen by soaking coffee In water and
It will become cloddy. Glazing- of coffee
Is made from the albuminous material of .
' eggs, after tie coffee has' xbeen
prayed after, .roasting. The water la
used to make weight, as the, roasting
process deducts about II per cent of the
- weight of coffee. The gluing is dona so
that good and bad coffee should have;
the same appearance, and thereby help
the sale. Over 28 per cent of the Ar
buckle ooffee U bed, s litigation in the
Stat of Ohio has shown. About 48,000,000
' pounds of eoftse ire sold in Ohio every
. year. Of this two-thirds, or ,00O.0U0
' pounds, is cheap South American grade
of tho lowest uallty. Orer 10,000.000
pounds are sold to ths oontumer at the
, rat of 11 oants par pound, for which, the
- retailer pays U cents per pound. If this
coffee Is bad. then the people of Ohio
. are cheated out of 9900.000 every year. Mr.
Blackburn concluded by remarking that.
"Ho wonder that' people make between
30,000,000 and M.000,pOO every year.'D-K,.;
ths dlsoussion on this subject was
taken up by Eon. Jess Cope, of Pennsyl
vania, who showed the results of, an

showed that most of the so-called Coffee

Hon. C P. Bharwood, of South Dakota,

which war not satisfactorily answered:

Hon.- XL O. Orosvenor, ot Mlohlgsa, ad

Pilot Harry Emlten took the Iac.ua,
luniber-laden, down the river yesterday,
and passed tnrough the new cut-off chan
nel between Tongue Point and Astoria,
at dead low tide. . The Inqua drew
17V4 feet.
The fact demonstrates tho fact that
the cut-off channel is now a permanency,
and can be used with safety by all sea
going ' vessels. With a view of plac
ing markings Upon the government chart,
the United States tug Mendell Is
now engaged, in ntaklng soundings over
this routti. Speaking of the availabil
ity of .the cut-off, Pilot Emken foday
said:
"I was on of the first ot tn river pi
lots to take a vessel through the new
channel, I have taken big Oriental lin
ers through this passage wnen their
propellers were so cose to the river bot
tom -that they, churned up the sand. The
action of a propeller in this way serves
much the same purpose of a dredge. Af
ter the sand and. sediment are once
stirred up, the current caixlea them on
down the river, and thus tho process
helps' to form a channel... 1 "
'The advantage of .the cut-off ' is not
so much the saving of distance, as that
the necessity of making two abrupt
turns Is avoided. The courso was for
merly a aTg-isag one; now yon can bear
straight up and down th river."
