opinion that there Is. at all events. q fair
chance to get a decision that Congrass has
no power to license the retail liquor traffic
in the District of Columbia. I think that
our courts will follow the track blazed out
by the Indiana Judges. While novel from
a legal standpoint. It SO commends itself
that 1t ought to be and probably will be
followed here, assuredly. as I think. by the
United States Supreme Court. to which the
question must ultimately go.
Il have not fully considered the question
as to the mode Of procedure, but am inclined.
to think the speediest and best method Is
to proceed by what Is known in the law as
q writ Of quo warranto against the District
as corporation, questioning its right to
Issue licenses.
This would involve no damages. only q
question OF costs Of procedure. It might
later be that I would advise at the same
time injunction proceedings against the ex-
else board, so as to have the same ques-
ton heard both in justice and equity at the
same time, but as to that do not feel GER
tain.
Il take 1t for granted that If your honor
able body concludes to undertake proceed
ings they will leave 1t to the lawyers en-
gagged to determine the method of pro-
cedure."

FOUGHT ENRAaED FATHER.
Bellevue Hospital Subdues Man Whose
Daughter Had Been Hurt,

NEW YORK. August 3O-Physicians and
attendants at Bellevue had to fight with an
enraged father last night In the reception
room Of the hospital to prevent him from
doing injury to Andrew L. Bender. chauf-
feur. who had run over and seriously in
jured his daughter earlier In the evening.
After a rough-and-tumble encounter on the
floor John T. Neiman, the father. was SUBJ
dued and Bender was hurried to q police
station under arrest.
Bender lives in Tarrytown and is en-
ployed by the Maxwell Briscoe Company,
which has a garage at BIT and 319 West
59th street. He Is considered an expert
driver. Last night he was taking big red
touring car containing two women east
through oath street. Just opposite her
home at 404 East Gath street Annie Neiman,
thirteen years old, was playing hide and
from behind a barrel as Benders car was
passing at moderate speed and was thrown
down and run over by one Of the wheels.
The women In the car told the chauffeur
to take the injured girl to the hospital.
They got out and hurried to the elevated
station while Bender picked up the girl and
started to take her with him to Bellevue.
A crowd. which had quickly gathered. fol-
lowed him on the run.
When DR.. Gordon Lindsay, who attended
the girl at Bellevue, told Bender that she
was seriously injured internally the man
tainted on the floor Of the reception room.
Just as he was restored to consciousness
Neiman, the girls father, rushed in very
place. Policeman Griffin of the East 35th
street station. stationed at the prison ward
Of the hospital. hurried to the reception
room In time to help subdue the excited
Neiman. Bender was then locked up at
the East 22d street station. The girl will
probably recover.
