POLICE OFFICER FALLS DOWN

Two More Pharmacists Are Released

Two more drug store men were released
from custody in police court Wednesday
morning on the charge Of selling whisky
Sunday November IS, in violation OF the
Slocumb law. Albert =. HinterlonG, a
druggist at the Bell pharmacy. Sixteenth
and Nicholas streets, was discharged after
an extended hearing. Hlnterlong proved an
alright alibi by the testimony Of several
witnesses. although Officer Waters said he
bought whisky from the defendant Sunday
afternoon.
The case against William Knoth, clerk
at the Schaefer pharmacy,, at Sixteenth and
Chicago streets, was provocative of hard
fought battle between the city prosecutor
and the attorney who represented many Of
the drug store men. Officer Waters TN
equivocally identified Knoth as the clerk
who sold him a bottle Of whisky Sunday
afternoon. The check given with the pur-
chase showing the initial of Enoth as the
salesman, was also In evidence. but knoth
had an abundance Of witnesses to prove
he was not on duty when the whisky was
bought by Officer Waters.
The question whether the beverage was
whisky or some other concoction was raised
/ and then settled by Oficer Waters, who
took a generous draught. made WY face
and testified without doubt that it was
whisky or doubtful quality.
Case Ia Dismissed.
The case was finally dismissed by Judge
Crawford, who said:
"The testimony in this case IS clear and
I would have no trouble In it's disposition

The case which the judge had reference &c
, was that Of Mr.. Liss OF Sherman L. Nc,

was proven that I.iss was not on duty a

transportation CompRnIes DO Not
Provide Cars and General Con-
gestiOn ERsues when
Grain Moves.

Some one has slipped a cog in not pro-
Viding in time Of plenty for the bad years.
some railroad officials have not laid in a
sufficient supply of coal duEing the sum
mer months to provide against a shortage
when the railroads are taxed in the grain
hauling season. and when cold weather
makes railroeding hard. For this neglect
the railroads are now having to seize
many cars of coal as they come from the
mines instead Of letting them so TO the
dealers
While this may be given as an excuse
in many towns, still the fault, IL Is said,
is not entirely with the railroads. Many
of the dealers I'm the state have failed 10
order coal when they should and the late
cold snap found them with empty bins
and now. with the prospects OF more cold
weather coming, they are again in the
lurch when the railroads are unable, for
various reasons. to deliver the coal as il
is ordered Merchants and dealers in the
smaller towns put up the excuse TO the
public that the roads won't give them cars
for coal, but In many instances this has
peen run down and Il was shown that the
dealers had ordered no coal.
The fact remains however, that on
some Of the roads where the greatest
shortage now exist some one has failed
