CLUBS ARE EXEMPTED.
Decision Which, it is Believed, Will
Let Them Escape the
RaineS' Law.

Albany, n. Y, April Under a de
cision of the court OF appeals today
there appears to he Il possibility that
Clubs will escape the operations of the
Raincs excise law. The case was that
of the state VS.. tho Adelphi club of Al
bany for selling liquor without license
and 1t was brought under the old excise
law, the defendant being fined 5000 by
the trial court. The liquor in question
was sold to a member of the club. The
court of appeals rcvorscS the decision
below ana discharges the steward of
the Adclphi club. against whom the Judg-
m"nt stood. While primarily the court :
decision is based upon the failure of
the law Of 1880 to specify clubs rs tho>"
who were required to take out licenses,
the pOInIOn says:
The defendant has limited and selected
membership, and while the property and
supplies are technically owned by the club
each member is in equity an equal owner
In common. It is not organized for the pur-
pose Of engaging in q business for profit or
for the traffic in liquors. 1t engages III no
business other than which pertains to main

distributed to its members upon the writ

by the officers of the club designed 10 cover
the purchase price and disbursements I'm
serving. These orders pass TO the steward
or treasurer Of the club and are charged
against The member. who settles therefor
monthly. We think that the transaction did
not amount to Il sale within the meaning Of
the statute. 1t was but 4 distribution
