Washington. July 3l.-A case was

hihit the sale of intoxicating liquor to
females.
The case is that of Daniel CroLin
against the city of Denver, Col. Cro-

ed wine room for women. The rec
ord shows that he asked for an in
junction to restrain the city from en-
forcing an ordinance prohibiting the
maintenance of such place for fe-
males. claiming that the law is uncon-
stitutional because 1t discriminatss
against women and also because 1t
deprives him of property without due

He contended that he had as much
right to nell liquor to women as to men.
and that they have as much right to
drink as mon have. He also referred

Indictment.

Mayor Robertson said Thursday af-
ternoon that the matter of arraigning
William Dallas Crawford rested en-.
tirely with Prosecutor Day. Prosecu-
tor Day will probably drop the charge
of murder against Crawford. He will
then be arraigned before the mayor on
a charge Of petit larceny. II enough
evidence can be OBJ aimed by the police
to show that Crawford stole more than
s35. as is thought, Crawford will have
to answer to a charge Of grand lar
ceny.
Crawford has confessed to the police
to stealing only SIS. but the police are
confident thai he took about $50 out
of the dead mans pockets. Besides
the s25 which he deposited in the safe
at the Barnett hotel. he bought a
watch on Saturday at the Moser jew
elry sore, paying SIC for it, and Ie-
volyer for S1.50. He also had few
dollars in his pocket when he was ar.
rested, besides money he spent ON
visit at several resorts near the Forl
Wayne station.
The total would make aboud $50. If
the evidence can be shown to convict
him ct grand larceny, the sentence VIII
be much more severe.
Wednesday afternoon, after the priS-
oner had confessed to stealing the
money, Attorney Martin, OF Lisbon,
visited .he county jail and had Ia h
