Wilson late today ended the bitterest fight'of his administration by with drawing the nomination of Thomas I?. Jones, of Chicago, to lie a member of the federal reserve hoard. .Mr. Jones' had written urging this action. The message of withdrawal reached the senute just as Senator Heed of| Missouri, one of tho democrats oppos ing continuation of the appointment, was concluding a vigorous denuncia tion of the International Harvester company, of which Mr. Jones is a di rector, anil those responsible for its existence and operations, it created a mild sensation anil eut short a de bate tiiat promised to run indefinitely. With the brief message, the presi dent sent copies of Mr. Jones* letter and his reply. Opposition to the nom inee had been based on his connect ion With tho Harvester company, which Is under indictment as 1? trust. The don ate kinking committee had luibmitted a majority report adverse tu confirma tion, signed by all the republican and two d?mocrate members. Mr. Jones wrote that this report was "based on a distortion of facts and perversion of the truth." In !?Ib reply, President Wilson ac cepted Mr. Jones' suggestion with re luctance and scored thpso who, he said, had treated his nominee with "gross and manifest Injustice." Ho disclaimed any embarrassment In M?mling by a man he believed In, but declared lie was unwilling to allow Mr. Jones to he a "football" In the contest that had sprung up. Correspondence between the presi dent and Mr. Jones made public nt the .bite house today follows In part: "Chicago. July 20. 1911. . "My Dear Mr. Prosldcnt: "I have reached u definite conclus ion that It Is my duty to ask you to withdraw my nomination as a mem: bor of tho federal reserve hoard. You are awure that I was In no Bcnse whatever an applicant for the office. It was with the gravest reluctance that I agreed to accept the honorable but heavy burdens of that office In case my nomination were sent to the sen ate and continued by lt. I did net then anticipate a protracted and bit ter contest. At the invitation of the committee on banking and currency, I willingly appeared before It and I endeavored to answer with entire frankness all the questions that were asked and my testimony wus made public at my request. "It 1b not for mo to surmise motlveB or to complain of results. That my nomination and tho controversy that has orison occr It In the committee on banking and currency Ib seriously em barrassing your administration and Is c-uslng Injury to the party of which you ore the leader 1b too clenr to ad mit of any doubt. And in view of tho character of the report made' by the majority of the committee on banking and currency, much nf It huner on dis tortion of factr. and perversion of truth?I fcol convinced even If tho nomination wore con.Vr?od by the senate my usefulness as a member of the federal reserve board will be seri ously Impaired. "I am not willing longer to remain tho cause of embnrus.mient to you and to your administration, and in vlow of the consid?ration? above stated, I now ask that.you withdraw my name from consideration. "Faithfully yours, "Thomaa D Jones." At the white bouse It was said that the president's actions did not indi cate that there had been any han?r?? in his determlnaMon lo Insist upon tho confirmation ot Paul M. Warburg, whose nomination .. to the r?serva board also Ib being opposed. The senate contest' over the Jones case, which threatened .partial oblit eration of party linos and a free for all struggle was at its height when tho president determined to abandon through. Feeling in the Senate ran high. Senator Reed took the floor and for several hours ho held-the Senate with an attack on the Harvester Co. Mr. Jones' conectlon with the concern was tlte principal basis for the oppo sition to his confirmation. Senator Reed began with a review of President Wilson's position ug?in??. monopoly, as expressed in the Presi dent's writing, his' expressions as to the personal guilt of officials of of I fending corporations, and Democrats I platform, declarations on' the uamo subject. Through the history of the Harvester company, tho senator swept with a whirlwind ot invectives and sarcasm, reciting from arguments In (bo government suit against the concern and the records of Congres sional investigation. "This pirate ehip whose keel was laid down by Morgan and Perkins in 1902, said Senator Reed, is sailing in the same sea today, manned by tho same crow, except for an occasional dummy direc tor to fill a vacancy, and those who trewl her .docks are just deserving cf 1 puuishment and those who launched hor on her bucancerlng career."

The case was origlnully brought before Judge Sanford of the District court, of the United States for the eastern district of Tennessee on .March 13, 1911 and wns tried at great length before a jury at Chatter : sa, Tcr.n. A score of scientists, including the mosc minent chemists, pharmacologists and phy sicians of America, tcstifficd as expert witnesses. At the conclusion of the trial tho government withdrew all the charges except two and on these two the Court Instructed the jury to return a verdict in favor of The Coca tola Cola Company The case was then appealed, and the recent decision of the Circuit Court of Appeals at Cincinnati, con firming the judgment of tho Lower Court, sustains the claim of The Coca Oc IU'. Company that Its product is neither adulterated nor mlsbranded within tho meaning of the Pure Food Act. The following quotation from the official court record will prove inter esting alike to the manufacturers and consumers of food products as it gives a* clear exposition of one of the most important sections of the Pure Food Lawfl and als defines the character of Coca Cola, the popular soda foun tain beverage. It reads as follows "There Is a middle view, which Is sufficient for the purposes of this case and which wilt recognize the composite meaning of "added dele terious" rather than the separate me antng of each word. This view 1b that in using tho word "added" with refrnece to a possibly deleterious food ingredient. Congress had in mind an addition above and beyond tho quan tity in which suob ingredient was normally found in usual and customry articles of food, and that no such In gredient should be considered as "added" if it was present only in the quantity in which it existed la these common articles of food with which every member of Congress was fami liar, and which' had generally been thought wholesome. Fro example: Creosote and other poducts of de structive wood distillation are. Inde pendently considered injurious, but thoy have always been present in [ smoked hams. Can tho addition of the same preservatives to the same extent to the same meat be something that Congress intended to prohibit? The boric acid, found in apples, is a preservative. If certain apples which are to be preserved are not up to tho maximum in this element, did Congress intend to forbid supplying the deficiency by the same element from another source? Acetic acid may, of. course, be injurious, but if, by its use, an artificial vinegar is made which is chemically and id cv ery way equivalent to the natural vinegar familiar to the members of CongresB In many compounds, would they have thought or it as a dele terious addition? No example 1st so clear as the very one here involved. Rverv member of congress had found familiar, from childhood, with tea and coffee; perhaps most of them drank It. The average cup of coffee contains more than two grains of caffiene; the average cup of tea, one and a k.U A ? # - - uuii ^iuiiiu. .x r,iuud ui - vov? yuia, as consumed, contains one and one fifth grains of caffiene. The che ical qualities and the physiological effects of tho caffiene which is in the tea or coffee and of the caffiene which is in tho Coca' Cola are pre cisely tho same. We are (quUe coa vlnced thet the use in . an artificial I bevorage of a certain elemenet which had been one of its characteristic ele ! mepts for many years, and when such I use was ni a less proportion than the ? same element was known to make up ; in different natural beverages than in universal use and generally thought wholesome?that such an element so omployed could pot have been within the meaning of Congress whn it chose the words "added deleterious lng:* Jdlont" [RISH HOME RULE IS DISCUSSED ?ibernieiu Approve Steps Token j To Force English Recog nizance (Hy Associated Prosa.
