SOLD IN The Mile Limit
So a Beer Wagon Driver Wa
Found Guilty.
Important Interpretation OF the Ii.
cense Law Made by Judge Mil
ler-Hard on Bottiers.

Yesterday evening jury in Jud ge Miller's
court convicted Fred W. Dieste of beng
an unlicensed wholesale liquor dealer. The
conviction and Interpretation of the liquor
law by Judge Miller will seriously af-
feet the beer bottIlng interests here.
The case was the result OF the bitter
fight that is being waged between the
wagon men selling foreign beers aud those
handling the local article. The former
have formed an association called the
Drivers Protective Union, and very few il
any, local men are members. When a
committee approached Dieste and solicited
his membership he refused, saying, 1t Is
alleged, that he was his- own boss aid
didn't need any projection. Dies:e drives
beer wagon like the rest OF them, and
according to Mr.. Leon TObriner his at
torney, they put up job on him.
On the 2sth or June Dieste's wagon was
standing in front of his house, No. CAT n
street north west, when a man in buggy
drove up and asked for two cases of beer.
His name was Charles w. Fenwick, and Inc
said on the stand Dieste unloaded them
/ from his wagon into the buggy and was
paid S2-2o. One was case OF Pabst, the
other Hcurich's, bottled by the Arlington
Bottiing Company.
For the latter company Dieste claims
10 be employed, but the union says he
sells on his own hook. Fenwick very
frankly admitted he was sent by Scott
West, one of the members, to get the
beer.
West aud Childs, another driver. said
Dieste carried beer around in baskets, and
had no sign on his wagon.
Dieste on the stand sworc he was en-
ploved by Mr.. Charles Jacobsen, of the
AL,
sort of depot OF his house on n street.
because it saved him from going to the
bottling works in Georgetown. He said
he had a regular route to cover and was
paid salary and commission by Mr..
jacobsen. He explai ned the presence
OF the case of Pabst by stating 1t was
bought To accommodate customer. He
said he frequently did this. Mr.. Jacobse n
paving the Pabst people. Dieste admitted
that he had considerable custom in the
mile limit.
Judge Miller gave the jury very positive
directions. He said the law stated that
no liquor oould be sold only on the prem
iscs licensed. IF the beer is ordered
from the bottling estabIishme Mt or is
served TO regular customers" remarked
his honor. that is all right, but men on
beer wagons cannot go around drumming
IN trade.''
''If yon rule that way. your honor"
said Mr.. Tobriner. 'the bottliBg people
might as well close business. The very
men who caused the prosecution are doing
the same thing they charge my client with"
Judge Miller also spoke of Dieste's sales
IN the mile limit and said it was another
evasion OF the law.
Mr.. Tobriner Indignantly denied this. He
argued with the jury that his client WIS
regularly employed by Mr.. Jacobson and
was not violating the law. The jury.
however. thought with Judge Miller. and
returned verdict Of guilty after being
out some time.

CONTRACT AWARDED.
John kennedy VIII Carry the House
Mail Hereafter

1Ge contract Tor conveying the House OF
Representatives mail was yesterday af-
ternoon awarded to JohR~Kennedy on a
bid OF $2.394.
There were two bids lower than the
above, bat they were thrown out for
reasons known only to Postmaster Me-
Eiroy. There were three bids in all
thrown out and a large number which
failed. Those thrown out were George
Otterhack. $2,100; James F. Cotton,
$1,000, and Barrows & Co., $3.50. The
reason gwen Mr.. Cotton for tile rejection
of his bid was that he had not lived up
to his present contract, he having the
conveyance OF the mail at the present time.
As far as could be learned last night Mr..
Otterback's bid was not considered be-
cause of his failure to respond to q noti-
fication. which Mr.. Otterback claims he
did not receive.
Mr.. Cotton said last evening that he had
secured counsel and would enter protest
against the award. 1t is said by some
of the dissatisfied bidders that a writ
of mandamus will be asked of the cnurt
to restrain the performance of the work
by the new contractor. The protesting
parties will use as another argument the
fact that Capt. MeEiroy opened the bids
before the proper time. This Capt. Nc
Eiroy does not deny. but says he 10 not
aware of having gone aside from bis
lawful privilege in doing so.

Illinois Girl Sells Papers on the Boston

The bright-faced newsboys who daily

abashed the other afternoon when they
beheld recruit to their ranks in the
person of an exceedingly bright and
comely damsel of 10 summers, who ex-

stand upon the sidewalk and offer them
for sale in competition with the news
boy. In fact, SO sure were the young
men that they put up SIT to my s12 as an
inducement."
AS consequence Miss Dorothea Ash

student in Boston music conservatory,

the SIT.
