Oleomargarine bill defeated but affects taxation law
In a vote of 115 to 178 the measure to regulate fraudulent oleomargarine sales failed.

The bill’s fate closes session prospects for further revenue acts this week. The Senate spent most of its session on an executive review of the Hay Pauncefote treaty.
