TOPEKA, Kan, Oct. An important
decision has been handed down by the su-

section of the prohibitory law. The law Of
1889 conferred upon police officers the au-
thority to enter any place where it was
thought liquor was being sold and make
arrests without a warrant The court
holds that this section, in so far as it au-
thorizes an arrest without a warrant for
misdemeanors not committed in the view
of the officer is unconstitutional and void.
