POUR WERE KILLED AND
HOUSE SET ON FIRE
Auburn, Cal., Nov. 11. Tho body
of Julius Weber, whose homo burned
last night, his wife, daughter, Bertha,
and ison, Earl; perishing in the flames,
was found in tho bathroom this morning
partly consumed. All signs point to
one of tho most ntrocious crimes in the
history of tho state. Mrs. Weber was
shot through tho heart, Bortha in tho
center of tho chest, and tho boy's head
was crushed in. Ono theory is thnt
Weber killed the family, and then him
self, nlthough ho was known to havo
been a devoted huiband nnd father.
Tho other theory is that robbory was
tho motivo of tho quadruple killing.
Weber was a capitalist and lonner of
largo sums of money. Ho had a safe in
tho house, but tho Rafo is too hot to
open to see if it was robbed. Tho hands
of Mrs. Wcbor nnd Bertha wero hold
nbovo their heads, indicating a posslblo
holdup, nnd it U thought thnt tho old
man was struck down from behind and
locked in tho bnthroom to preveut in
terference. Tho bullets used wero of
32-calibre, but ouly a 22-enlibro rifle
was found in tho house.
Washington, Nov. 11. Ono hundred
bottles of whisky, supposed to bo abso
lutely straight, hnvo been received by
tho bureau of chemistry of tho depart
ment of agriculture from tho bonded
wnrohouso ns samples with which fo be
gin experiments to dctermlno tho va
rious (pinlitics of intoxicants sold in
America.
Tho bureau will receive nbout 50
more, nnd then tho work of collecting
snmplct of commercial whisky, such ns
is sold at bars, will bo begun.
Tho qualities of whiskies on tho
market is to bo investigated thorough
ly, a standard flxed nnd a report to
congress made, on which It is expected
a new law will bo based.
Judging from tho results of investi
gations nlrcady mado tho officer, of the
bureau of chemistry announce that
nearly 85 per cent of tho whisky now
on tho market is a compound liquor
mndo of various things thnt nro not
found in straight whiskies. Nearly all
of this is marked "Ryo" or " Bour
bon," when it might just as well bo
called liniment or a pntont medicine.
It litis been discovered by tho oxperts
thnt rectifiers aro in a mnjority of
cnscH using n.3 ndultorants alcohol, neu
tral spirits, cologne spirits, velvet spir
its, caramel nnd vnrlous kinds of burned
wood, nnnlino coloring mnttor and es
sential oils, certnln othors manufac
tured by chemists, artificial flavoring
matter, pruno julco nnd cheap sherry or
maderia.
Pennsylvania state cheinUts has dis
covered that tho cheap whlskiett haver
been made of tho cheapest kind of nlco
liol, coloring mntter and capsicum and
other peppers.
Dr. Wiley and his nsslstnnts do not
assert that tho eontpauiid whisky is any
more Injurious thntl straight whtskyi.
Thero is no campaign being made
against compound whiskies, but Dr.
Wiley thinks it should bo lnbcleU just
what it is.
The packers and manufacturers of
various foodj'tuffs nro compelled to
print on tho Inbols of tlioir goods just
what tho compound contains, nnd ho
sees no reason why thero should bo nny
exceptlon mado in tho case of rectifiers.
