DEALERS TO MAKE A FIGHT.
Opposition to Increase in Liquor
License Fee in MARYLAND

LiquoH dealers in Baltimore are to take
an active part in the legislative election
this fall. This determination was reached
by the members of the Retail Liquor
Dealers Beneficial Association at a meet
ing held yesterday 1t is stated that
move is to be made to increase the liquor
license fee from $3.50 to S4OO. and the MEM
bers of the association are to work openly
to defeat the proposition. They discussed
the question fully and concluded to follow
the plan of temperance organizations OF
sending queries to prospective legislative
caI.Gi .ates.
are to be asked are:
=. Are you in favor Of continuing the
present license fee of $3.50?
3. Do you think that the police should
be permitted to discriminate in the enforce
ment of the law?
4. Do you favor the issuance of licenses
for the sale of liquor by grocery and de-
partment stores?
5. Do you favor the selling of liquor on
primary election days and on general cleo
ton days after the polls closed?
1t is probable that fight will be made
at Annapolis next winter to get a more
liberal Sunday law in Baltimore city, and
to get law passed which will permit the
sale of liquor after the closing of the polls
on election day. The modification that Is
likely to be asked of the Sunday laws. it is
reported. is the enactment OF an amend
after church hours. The temperance peo-
pie throughout the state will be appealed
to by the Anti-Salcon League to defeat the
proposed legislation.

partment of the District, stating that the

hey of the street cleaning department, He
stated that the section referred to in Mr.

THE POINTING FINGER

they said they would 60 at once, and stay
away. They agreed to never reveal the
secret of the murder Of his twin brother
by Gordon Weatherby, and when the under.
standing had been reached, the detective and
his friend, Harry Blake, accompanied the
two villains out of the mansion and to the
edge of the grounds and watched them till
they disappeared In the darkness.
Then they reentered the mansion and made
their way to the library. They were given
a warm greeting by Miss Weatherby, who
had heard the story of the unhappy affair
from her fathers lips, and had been made
almost happy by the knowledge that he had
been almost Justified In putting his villainous
brother out of the way.
Blanton assured both that they would not
be In the least danger of being bothered by
the officers of the law, and suggested that 1t
would be good plan for Mr.. Weatherby to
pose as the twin brother of Gordon Wealth
erby:
the detective said; "the officers of the law
will not suspect, and 1t will make 1t possible
for you to live here In your own home, with
your daughter, to the very end"
THAT will be pleasant" said Gertrude |;
1--WE thank you, Mr.. Blanton."
Gordon Weatherby wanted to give the de-
tective q large sum of money, but Blanton
would accept only a reasonable fee ~ have
enjoyed working on this case more than on
any that have ever been engaged upon, "
he said land that counts for a great deal"
A little later the two babe Gordon Wealth
erby and his daughter good night, and went
to the hotel.
