LIQUOR LICENSES OF CLUBS
PROBLEM THAT FACES THE Elk
else BOARD.
Where to Draw the Line Between
Real and Bogus the Puzzling
Question.

A movement is on foot in the excise
board for a determined war upon pseudo
clubs and hotels which have liquor
licenses. For some time past the police
have been quietly investigating these
places. and early In December it Is ex-
pected they will submit their reports.
Later, 1t is said, an amendment will be
made to the police regulations requiring
every club in the city to close its bar at
midnight and not open again until 4
o'clock in the morning. Such an amendment
would mean that the Metropolitan. Army
and Navy, Century and others would be
included in the mandate. as we'll as the
city where a man may pay 81 year
as a membership fee and drink at any
hour Of the day or night.
The fact that a system of repositories
of liquor could be installed in these clubs
and thus evade the Jaw has been called

that it is facing the most difficult
problem it has yet tackled. In the
large clubs this means of evading the
law. it is said. would be known as the
locker system" while the smaller clubs
would doubtless establish what they would
cal a refrigerator system" when each
member could keep bottle In the gen.

Carbon Monoxide and "water Cas-"

Carbon Monoxide and "Water Cas-"
To the Editor Of The Star:
Carbon monoxide is not as has been
stated. "caused by incomplete combustion
around gas burner" but Is. instead. one
of the principal constituents of water
gas-the kind we are getting If by the
term coal gas" we are to understand
Illuminating gas made by the destructive
d!stillation of coal, we should then have
carburetted hydrogen gas with perhaps
a trace of sulphur. which would be far
less destructive to life than Is the water
gas. Water gas, consisting principally Of
carbon monoxide and hydrogen, has little
or no Illuminating value, and must there
fore be enriched by the distribution
throughout its volume Of finely divided
carbon. It is this carbon which. becomin .,
highly incandescent in the otherwise blue
flame, gives the luminous qua ity to gas
It is also this carbon which blackens the
bottoms of our cooking utensils.
When we consider that in the use or
gas. either for cooking or heating pur-
poses, all of the products of combustion
are discharged into the air of the room.
and that per cent of carbon d.Oxide
toset Their with one-half per cent of carbon
monoxide. in such air will cause death,
we feel that the practice cannot be too
strongly condemned. and are led to
wonder why fatalities from this source
have not been more frequent

Further questioning indicated that

was accordingly committed. The non-
