on this point the firm had consulted
him and at their request he had made
an examination of the records and as
certained that none Of the wholesale
liquor houses without bar had paid
any license for the past three years.
After making the examinations he had
informed the firm which employed him,
that if such houses were selling liquor
in quantities less than fve-gallons to
other than the trade, they were moral
ly and legally violating the law. The
supreme court had decided several
years ago that the sale of less than
five gallons, even to retail liquor deal
er, was in violation of the law. Mr..
Helm was Of the opinion that the I'M
derstanding or agreement between the
city authorities and the wholesale
liquor dealers and brewers, at which
1t was decided that no license was
necessary, so long as sales were made
only to retailers was technical breach
of the liquor law and had led to much
abuse of the law. The mayor, Mr..
Helm said, had treated him very court
eously and promised to investigate the
matter. Mr.. Helm told ths-mayor that
there were eight firms in the city who,
while engaged in the wholesale liquor
business, were engaged in selling at
retail and without having secured the
necessary license.

HELD UP BY TWO MEN.
j. F. BriskeI Has an Experience
with Highwaymen.

J. F. Briskel, an engineer in the en-
ploy of the Northern Pacific railroad,
living at $50 Pennsylvania avenue, was
held up near his home by two men
shortly after 7 o'clock last evening
The footpads thoroughly searched MI.
Briskel's pockets, but he carried no
valuables in the way of either money
or a watch, and the thieves secured no
hootv. The scene of the hold-up was
ON PENNSYLVANIA avenue, between Co
lumbia avenue and Jackson street. The
thugs bounced upon their victim from
a vacant lot and before he could o1ter
any resistance pinioned his arms and
ordered him to remain quiet on penalty
of his life. While one of the men held
him the other went through his pock-
cts. Mr.. Briskel could give a good de-
scription of only the man who search
ed him. He says he was about five feet
eleven inches in height, wore heavy
black mustache and a weeks growth
of beard. He had on a black slouch
hat and Mr.. Briskel says he noticed
that the man had only two fingers on
his left hand. The hold-up was report
ed TO the police.

Judge Nethaway took this up and tried 10
show that McCracken was a very WILING
witness for the prosecution. He went INTO INTO
the Heen assault but could not shake MI NC
Crackers testimony.
Judge Nethaway tried to pin the witness
down as to the exact nature OF the blows,
whether Lemon held the cane near the END
or in the middle, or whether the dow was
inward or downward but McCracken refused
to be caught on any immaterial point he
was sure three or four blows had been struck
and that was all.
HOW DID NETHAWAY KNOW.
During the description of the Heen as
sault, McCracken mentioned the residence
near by of a guard named BordWeH, VINO
