THREE MEN ACCUSED
OF DRUG SWINDLES
EXTENSIVE THEFTS CHARGED
TO SAN FRANCISCANS
Chief of Police of Denver Orders Ar
rest of Trio-VaIuabe Perfumes
Also Declared to Have
Been Stolen

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 6.-EXtensive
drug thefts which are alleged to have
been committed in Denver and Seattle
have been traced to San Francisco, and
as a result of an investigation by
Pinkerton detectives and the local
police three men, who are said to be
implicated, are in the city prison here.
Those in custody are George Sax
smith, formerly in the employ of the
Scholtz Drug company in Denver and
lately with the Galley Drug company of
Seattle; A. E. Holt, salesman, and
Martin l.. Jones. who has worked in
some OF the fashionable tailoring estab-
lishments in San Francisco.
The arrests were made at the re-
quest of Hamilton Armstrong, chief of
police of Denver. In his telegram to
the local police, Chief Armstrong all
legged that Saxsmith had stolen valu-
able perfumes which might be found in
the warehouse of a local wholesale drug
firm.
Jones, according to the police, ad-
mits that he received packages of
drugs from Saxsmith which he disposed
of at private sale, but denied that he
was aware that they had been stolen.
A considerable quantity of drugs and
perfumes are said to have been re-
covered by the detectives.

REFUSE CASTRO
RIGHT TO LAND
FRANCE DEMANDS FORMAL
APOLOGY FIRST
VENEZUELA's PRESIDENT FACES
SERIOUS DILEMMA
Cabinet Decides on Drastic and Novel
Method to Obtain Signal Re-
dress from Pugnacious

PARIS, Dec. Eff President Castro
of Venezuela comes to Bordeaux he will
not be allowed to set foot on French
soil until after he has offered formal
apology for the fashion in which he
has flouted France.
This decision was made by the cab
met but was kept a secret, as it was
suspected that Castro would disembark
at Santander, Spain and because his
physical condition may be such that
humane motives might render imme-
diate care at hospital imperative.
But should he arrive at Bordeaux
and his illness not be serious the cab
met has determined that some signal
redress must be eXacted from the
Venezuelan president for his ignomin-
ious expulsion of M. Taigny, the French
charge d'affaires, from that country in
January, 1906.
Permission to land will be made con-
ditional upon the dispatch of an of
fetal telegram of apology to the French
government and the dispatch of teie-
graphic instructions to Caracas for the
immediate execution of the arbitral
award in the matter of the French
claims. DR.. Domingo Castillo. the Ven
ezuelan consul general at Hamburg,
and d. Escalante, consul general at
Liverpool, passed through Paris today
on their way to Santander, presumably
to meet President Castro.

PUBLICITY BILL
MAY NOT PASS
S0L0N EXPLAINS STATUS TO
PERRY BELMONT
Measure Endangered by crumpacker's
Amendment, to Which Democrats
Object, Says McCalI-TWo
Parties Favor Bill
[Bx Associated Press.l ]

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-With the
statement that it would go long way
in securing the passage of the publicity
bill, which now depends upon the &C
tion of the senate, Perry Belmont today
made public letter from Representa-
tive Mccall which said
I'm deply to your inquiry concerning
the status of the publicity bill, l would
say it was called up by Mr.. Crumpack-
er, who moved to suspend the rules and
pass the bill with an amendment.
THE house adopted Mr.. Crumpack-
er's amendment and then passed the
publicity bill, sending it to the senate.
IF persisted in the amendment will,
in my opinion, undoubtedly have the
effect of killing the bill.
"The propositions are entirely in
dependent. The publicity bill, relat-
ing to the publication of election ex-
penses, had the support of both par
ties upon the house committee, and
also received the approval of Mr.. Tart
and Mr.. Bryan.
"As the bill has gone from 'the house
to the senate, it would be necessary to
begin over again in the house to re-
introduce 1t.
IN this connection it is well to re-
call the letter of President-elect Tart
to Senator Burrows, in which ne
strongly stated the case in favor OF
this legislation"
