THE LIQUOR PROBLEM.
Law Found Under which Prosecutions
Selling without License Can Be Brougb

Law Found Under which Prosecutions for
Selling Without License Can Be Brought.
There was an air Of secrecy hanging over the
board room today at the morning session Of
that august body. The lors were closed and
the secretary announced to those who sought
admission to the District triumvir that the
body was in executive session and could
not be interrupted. Shortly after the board
convened the attorney for the district and his
assistant made their appearance and were
ushered in. For over two hours the board con-
tinued in session, and when at last the doors
were thrown open Commissioner Douglass
emerged with his face wreathed in smiles.
We have hit upon solution to the liquor
problem and. even though we we're neglected
by Congress, think we can remedy the defect in
the liquor law by adding police regulation
covering the same.
II seems that the Commissioners were ne
termined to do all in their power to keep un-
licensed saloons from doing business The
attorney held that the Commissioners had
a right under the authority vested in
them by Congress to make police regulations
to embody penalty clause in the police regula-
tons governing the unlicensed sale of liquors.
Acting upon this the Commissioners. after some
consultation, added the following to their police
regulations:
Article 16. Bar rooms, sample rooms, &c.
Section I. No restaurant, bar room sample room
or tipping house. where distilled or fermented
liquors, wines or cordials are sold shall be kept
in the District Of Columbia without license
therefor first had and obtained in accordance
with the provisions Of existing law and the fol-
lowing acquisitions, and any person violating
the provision Of this section shall on con-
viction be punished by a fine of not
less than one hundred dollars nor more
than ESQ for each and every offense, and in de-
fault Of payment Of such fire such person shall
be committed 10 the workhouse of the CITY of
Washington in said District for period of not
less than three nor more than eleven months
Sec. 2. 1t shall be unlawful for any person to
sell distilled or fermented liquors. wines or cor
dials in the District Of Columbia by wholesale
without license for that purpose
first being obtained, and any person
violating the provisions Of this
section shall, on conviction, be punished by q
hne OF not less than s25 nor more than $50 for
each and every offense, to be collected as pro-
vided In section one of this article

IN THE Getty OF THE PLAGUE"

Persians Frantically Destroy All the Liquor,
Being Told That 1t Brought Cholera.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. ga dispatch from
Astrabad, q city Of Persia whose pestilential at
mosphere has gained for it the ominous name
Of "City of the Plague" says that the mollahs
or priests, whose influence with the people is
very powerful, have preached that the outbreak
Of cholera is due to the sale of alcoholic liquors.
Their language excited the populace to frenzy.
Mobs gathered in the vicinity Of the mosques and
determined to take summary steps to abolish
the liquor traffic. Raids we're forthwith made
upon the dram shops, which were plundered.
The mob destroyed the goods of number Of
Armenian traders, who are Russian subjects.
The Russian consul, fearing the trouble would
grow and that he might be attacked, telegraphed
to st. Petersburg for assistance. The govern
ment at once gave orders for the dispatch of
twenty-five mounted Coseacks, who have arrived
at Astrabad, where they are guarding the con-
sulate.
The city is situated on small stream that
flows into Astrabad bay, which opens into the
Caspian sea, and a Russian gunboat has as
cended this stream and is now anchored off
Astrabad. The Russian legation at Teheran,
the capital Of Persia, was informed Of the work
Of the mob and N. ID. BuZow, the Russian min
lister, has demanded compensation for the riot
Gus acts Of the populace.
The Shah Of Persia, who is making tour
OF the provinces, has been informed Of the OUT
break Of cholera in Teheran end he will i'm
mediately return to that city.
