POLICE AND THE GRoWLER.
A Little Incident on Thirteenth
Street Yesterday.

The ordinance prohibiting liauor-dealers
FROM selling liquor of any kind to persons
under 18 years of age has been grossly
violated of late.
The law, which went into effect about
two years ago, was strictly adhered to by
grocers and saloon-keepers for quite
while. Now majority OF their places
openly sell beer and other stimulants to
children. But few arrests have been
made, yet the violation has been general.
An incident yesterday afternoon Will
Illustrate the prevailing habit OF sending
children to the grocery for liquor
Special Policeman Ruddell, while walk
Ing dowa Thirteenth street, saw little
elrl not more than 6 wears old carrying
large pitcher filed with foamy beer. He
asked the child where she got II, but the
yonngster was too smart and would not
tell.
The policeman followed her to her home
anu admonlshed the parents not TO again
send the child for beer.
1hey became very angry and said that
every one around sent their children on
similar messages and that no one inter-
!ereu. a hglt seemed imminent, had not
the policeman Withdrawn,
EMany OF the grocers and saloon-keepers
express their Willingness to abide by the
ordinance, but they claim that if they re-
fuse to sell beer to children sent by their
parents plenty will accommodate them.
Ihe dealers lay the blame entirely at the
parents doors for tempting them. More.

would proht by the loss of law-abiding
tTadesmen.

from the District Court of Southern Cali
fnrnia before Judge McKenna and Judges
Gilbert and Hawley.
The decision of the lower court was
affirmed.
Judge Hanford concurred.
The ruling grounds OF the decision were
that the Itata was not a vessel of war, or
a cruiser or vessel destined to destroy
the commerce OF a friendly power; that
she was in the service of foreign power.
and that there was no evidence of anything
more than that She was transporting her
