NEW YORK NEEDS DRUG CLERK
Strict Provisions of New Law Puts
Premium on Efficiency

NEW YORK, Jan. S.-Although
salaries practically have doubled in
the last two years, there is a great
scarcity of drug clerks in New York
today. Many pharmacists are hard
put to find assistants and there
seems to be little prospect of a re-
newal of the former supply. The
scarcity is largely accounted for by
the strict provisions of the new law,
which requires graduation from a
college of pharmacy, as we'll as
four years actual experience as an
assistant, before man is entitled to
a certificate as pharmacist.
The new law, while it has caused
the decrease in the number of clerks
available, will, the druggists say
be of great benefit, as it requires a
much more complete technical edu-
cation than the former law.

FRISCO SALOON
WHEN HUSBAND AFFINITY
MEET BLOOD FLOWS AND
DEATH ENDS FEUD BEGUN BY
STOLEN AFFECTIONS

SAN FRANCISCO, jan s.
Frank Cochrane and T. r, Bell. both
of whom recently arrived here from
Seattle and between whom bad
feeling is said to have existed for
some time, met shortly before 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon in the
Sansome saloon on Sansome street,
near Market. They went into one
of the private booths in the place,
and after exchanging few words
drew their pistols and began duel
at close range. Eight shots were
exchanged. six taking effect, each
man receiving three bullets in his
body. Bell fell to the floor and was
apparently dying when Cochrane
walked out into the saloon, where
he was disarmed by the bartender Al
moment later he fell over dead.
Bell was removed to the receiving
hospital in an unconscious condition
and it is not believed that he win
live more than a few hours.
It is said that the cause Of the
tragedy was the charge made by
Coehrane. who was a faro dealer In
| Seattle, that Bell had won his wife's
affections. Bell has been employed
| as chauffeur.
Bell made an ante-mortem state
ment to the police last night, in
which he says that Cochrane fired
the first shot and that before draw
ing his revolver he told Bell that he
had come from Seattle to kill him
because he had been told in Seattle
that Bell was intimate with Mrs
4 Cochrane. Bell claims that he shot
in self-defense and that he did moi
draw his weapon until after Coch.
rane had fired one shot.

reading had been completed, in or
der that the senate may at once be
informed of its provisions. l have
been authoized by the committee to
say that the committee will receive
and give careful consideration to
bills sent to it having the same pur-
poses in view that are sought in the
bill that has been read and have
to request senators who have such
bills to present them at as early
time as possible"
1t is understood that all the re-
publican members of the committee
are inN favor Of the measure. except
Senator Hansbrough. who believes
that a central bank will best solve
the difficulties of the country on the
currency situation. He has himself
introduced a bill providing for
central bank at Chicago, and in.
tends. it is believed. to uphold that
idea with vigor.
Republican leaders in the senate
as a whole, are hopeful of the early
passage of the Aldrich hill. They
declare that while they are anxious
that it should not be partisan
measure, yet, if democratic opposi
tion should be developed to the re
publican plan for such legislation
they will proceed to put the bill

THAW SPRINGS SURPRISE
ANNOUNCING HIS SUBPOENAS
WILL CALL TO STAND EXPERTS FOR PROSECUTION WHO ON
FIRST TRIAL DECIDED HE WAS INSANE, THUS FORCING JE-
ROME TO RECALL LUNACY COMMISSION MAKING THE ISSUES
WHOLLY ON THE MENTAL CONDITION OF THAw IN 1905

NEW YORK, Jan. S.-The de-
fense in the case of Thaw sprung its
first surprise in the second trial to-
day by announcing that it had is
sued subpoenas for several of the
expert witnesses who testified for
the prosecution in the first trial a
year ago, when the district attor-
ney applied for a lunacy commits
sion
They made affidavit that in their
Opinion Thaw, at the time of the in
quiry, was suffering from an incura-
BILE form of insanity. These same
doctors, however, had previously
testified on the witness stand, in re-
sponse to Jerome's famous hypo-
thetical question, that they believed
Thaw knew what he was about
when he killed White.
This move is intended by the de-
Tense as a block to the prosecution s
putting these same doctors on the
stand, and it is taken by some as
showing determination that Thaw
shall not be convicted, even with
the danger of stay in the asylum
for criminal insanity at Mattawau
as the alternative.
If they succeed in this, the de.
fense would force the trial of the
case strictly on Thaw's mental con
dition in the summer of 1906. ant
this would force Jerome to appl!
| for lunacy commission, anC
Thaw's lawyers are confident o
their ability to make good his CLAIM

board.
