ALCOHOL AND THE TARIFF.
Pharmnceuti,t Want Very Narrow
Restrictions Adopted.

ASHEVILLE, n. c., Sept. 6.-The
American Pharmaceutical Association
yesterday decided to make an attempt to
secure very narrow restrictions as to the
free-alcohol clause In the new Tariff bill.
1t was agreed that with the reduced tax
there would be danger of promiscuous
selling of the intoxicating drug disguised
as bitters and the like. A resolution was
adopted, requesting the Secretary OF the
Treasury to limit the provision regarding
free alcohol to cases where the drug Is
to be used in the manufacture of COM
pounds In which 1t is so ch"nged as to
lose absolutely its chemical and physical
properties including the classes of COM
pounds known as others. choral and
chloroform.
This would make the remission of the
tax of little benefit to the retail do =
gist and there was vigorous objection to
the resolution before 1t was finally
adopted. The Association Endorsed the
constitution OF the Interstate Druggists
League, which places boycott on man
ufacturers and agents who furnish pat
ent medicines to dealers who cut rates.
George a. Seabury. of New York, was
reelected Chairman of the section on
commercial interests for another year.

Republican Caucus Plan for n Recess
to BE Carried Out.
10y Associated Press, }

ALBANY, Sept. 6.-The Republican
caucus has decided to put upon final
pa ssage in the Constitutional Conven-
ton next Tuesday morning several OF
the proposed amendments. notably those
on the judiciary and education. and a
resolution to that effect was introduced
this morning.
The Convention. as stated exclusively
by the Associated Press. will adjourn
from Sept. IL to Sept. 70.
At this mornings session of the Con-
vention, Mr. Dickey Republican), of
Orange, defended the proposed appor-
tionment. saying that in the case of his
own county its Republican majority had
been killed by adding Democratic
county. He was surprised to find Demo
Gratis who had aided in the rank APP
portionmcnt of 1899 finding fault with
the proposed pqual one based upon their
own false census.
The cry that the country members had
fixed this apportionment came with very
poor grace from the alleged New York
ers He had been looking In the Con.
vcntion manual and had found that al
the DIRECTORS who thought that they
could make better apportionment had
been born and bred in the country.

VANDAlS AT POLO GROUNDS.
Caterer Steyenss supplies MALI
ciOusly Ruined During the Night.

Caterer Harry Stevens, who supplies
the hungry and thirsty at the Polo
Grounds by virtue of the authority of
the New York Baseball Club officials,
was this morning the victim of an out
rage, which apparently originated in
malice.
On entering the lunch room and bar
a scene of confusion presented Itself to
the astonishcd gaze of the caterer.
Mingled in anything but picturesque
grouping were sandwiches, juicy and
rich pies lemon and apple associating
in the most intimate relations, beer
glasses, and above all Classically con-
structed omelet which cast its cggotis-
teal component parts about the ioor
like sunset landscape, shredded.
The damage. fortunately, could be re-
paired in time for the cranks at this
afternoons game. Nothing was stolen.
The privilege now enjoyed by Stevens
was until recently possessed by
"Dasher' Troy, who was removed for
assaulting grand stand gatekeeper
who had the audacity to refuse to pass
friend of Troy without necessary
ticket.

LONDON Sept 6.-The same spirit
which was manifested when the crowds
about HYDE and Cowes maintained a
cullen silence when Nigilant beat Bril-
tannia continues to manifest itself In
some OF the English papers.
For instance the Westminster Gazette
this afternoon, referring TO the mis-
fortunes of the American yacht and her
owners, remarks:
MIR. Gould can hardly have considered
that he comes ont OF the business well
The Prince OF Wales, II is obvious, has
suffered annoyance from the manner in
which he was treated, and II Is per-
fcctly Ineligible that Mr. Gould was
compelled to accept precisely that favor
from the Prince OF Wales which he him
self declined to concede when the Prince
of Wales wished to lay UP his boat. 1t
Is a humliating position, and II is hard
to regard Mr.. Goulds position with
much sympathy,
Moreover II is the hanky-panky
manner in which the incident vas kept
/ dark which does not recommend itself
TO British notions"
| 1t Is pleasant, however, to contrast
with such reflections as those just
quoted the opinion OF the Times CORE
spondent at Cowes, who, as already
cabled wrote: 1T may be said that Mr..
Gould acted In thoroughly sporting
spirit under trying and delicate circum-
stances"
