Nine Firemen
Overcome by
Gas and Smoke
Fire in Basement Of Farnam Street
Store Causes Trouble for the
Department.

Nine flremen were overcome by escaping
gas and smoke while fighting a fire which
damaged the stock Of furnishing goods OF
the y. Edward Zeiss house at 1894 Far
nam street Sunday morning. All were

son OF truck No. 4.
The fire was in the basement Of the
building and the firemen had to chop
through the floor and flood the basement
before they could e~xtlnguish Il. The origin
Is unknown, but is thought to have Deen
caused by defective electric wiring. 1t
was impossible to have been caused by the
furnace, as the heating plant Is under an
adjoining building that is occupied by the
Burlington ticket office.
An estimate Of the loss could not be
given. as most Of It will be caused by
smoke and water. A large stock Of goods
was stored In the basement. The ground
floor OF the building was filled with smoke
when the firemen arrived, and the goods
on this floor will be damaged by the
smoke.

Attorney Crawford Intimates the
Cases VIII BE Refned, Probably
I'm the federal Court, when
Clients Respond.

Eight more suits brought by Mikes in
the district court IN Council Bluffs to re-
cover the amounts out of which they
claimed TO have been swindled by the ]. c..
Mabray gang were dismissed Saturday by
N. A. Crawford. attorney for the plaintiffs.
The plaintiffs in the suits dismissed
yesterday and the amounts which they
sought to recover are as follws:
J. c. Bowman, snverton. Colo, 81 300;
Joseph p. Walker. Denver, Colo, !SdOS;
Adolph Yeske, Hardin, Mont, $3.50; r L
King, Fowler, Colo, 5000; G. Nelson Pratt

Hart, John J. Spindler, Benjamin Marks,
]. c. Mabray and alleged ''steerers." In

suits were dismissed without prejudice be-
cause motions had been made by the de-
PENDANTS to require cost bonds of the plain
lifts and his clients had not yet indicated
whether they we're willing to put up these
bonds.
MY clients reside at a distance and they
may not yet have received my letters which
wrote them regarding this matter Of the
bonds. I expect to hear from them before
long and I believe there is no doubt they
will furnish whatever bonds are required.
When this is done my petitions will be
filed" said Mr.. Crawford.
It is likely. Mr.. Crawford said, that these
suits will be refiled in the United States
court as were the similar suits which were
dismissed in the district court on Septem-
Der q. Mr.. Crawford declared that there
was no intention to abandon the suits and
laughed at the suggestion that possibly

Commenting upon the above report,
the Portland Daily Argus Of Septem-
Der "a, 1909, says:
Here we have the testimony of a
strong prohibitionist that the liquor
law is laxly enforced in Portland, and
that the sort of enforcement in vogue
is a shame, and he produces the evil
dence to back up his statements. He
finds that the volume Of liquor sales
has not diminished; there has been
simply a change in methods. There
seems to be more anxiety in Portland
lest the Sturgis deputies be sent there
than there is lest liquor selling ana
drunkenness increases, so that license
cities put Portland to shame The
coming of the Sturgis deputies is
feared by the politicians says Mr..
Pringle in his letter to the Argus. No
doubt. But what have the Sturgls COM
~missioners to do with the fears Of the
politicians? Why should their action
be affected by such fears? Their BUSH
ness is to enforce the law, without fear
or favor, and without regard to the
schemes Of politicians"

sufficiently soaked in IL he developes
a sort of instinct or affinity which
helps him out in such cases. All we can
say is that after going thoroughly owe
the city, the poorer as we'll as the bet
ter sections, we did not see a single
thing which indicated that 1t was pos
sible to secure liquor, nor did we see
a single man who looked like he had
secured it.
I'm fairness to the city and county
officials at Portland, we wish to add
that, while 1t has sometimes been diff
ficult to procure warrants and the SEN
fences imposed have in some cases
seemed light according to the offense
committed, there has been faithful
service of the warrant and fair use Of
the evidence at the trial In every case
we have brought. The notification OF
the liquor law and the increase of ar
rests for drunkenness from aces in
1866 to $3.50 in 1908 in Portland
may be attributed to overconservative
administration of the law. In Portland
no injunctions are brought against
property owners who knowingly let
their buildings to liquor sellers. Those
who sell liquor are rarely sentenced
to jail in the superior court and al
most never in the municipal court. Evil
dence obtained by purchase or seizure
of intoxicants is used for only one or
two charges, instead of the maximum
number. Clerks, instead of proprietors,
are usually arrested when seizures are
made. When the coming Of the Sturgis
deputies is feared by the politicians.
four policemen are put on the Job Of
closing the saloons and seYenty-six
policemen are ordered to let 1t alone.

Curfew 60 BE Enforced.

Major G. H. Richmond, chief Of police.
announced Saturday that beginning Mon
day the curfew ordinance, which has been
permitted to lie dormant for several years,
will be put in force again. The number OF
young folk, especially girls, to be seen on
the streets at late hours in the night has
decided the chief that enforcement of this
ordinance has become necessary.
Chief Richmond said tina the need OF
enforcing the curfew ordinance had been
brought strongly to his attention by the
address delivered by Mrs. Bullock OF the
purity department before the recent ma
tional convention OF the Woman's Christian
Temperance union In Omaha. Mrs. Bullock
said in part: 'The children should be kept
off the streets after dark. 1 find that
gadding on the streets at night is response
Bile for the ruin Of most Of our young
girls. In cities where the curfew law is
enforced a very low percentage of girls

Violations of Prohibitory Law
Throughout Maine.

Rev. H. N. Pringle Of WaterviIIe, Me.
has Just made a thorough personal ex-
animation of conditions in Portland
touching the open. illegal sale of
liquor. He is a prohibitionist. His writ
ten report reads as follows:
''The odiorne Bottling company, CO.
81 Cross street, was raided on my COM
plant on September 7, and about
$1,000 worth of intoxicating liquors
were seized. We found at this place. an
immense quantity of empty bottles and
Jugs in the basement and on each of
the two floors above. 1 think 1t would
be a conservative estimate that there
were 1900 barrels Of 'empties' in this
establishment. In one room there was a
row of bins which hold about ten tons
of coal each. These were filled with
empty Jugs and beer bottles, like the
full ones found at the boat and train
sheds the next night. In one part OF the
building were 500 barrels Of empty
beer bottles ready for shipment to St.
Louis. At least $4,000 worth of empty
bottles were left at this establishment,
instead of being confiscated for the
benefit of the country. 1 understand
that the county officials not only neg
lect to make such confiscations, but
have recently assisted Massachusetts
brewers in recovering their empty beer
bottles.

half of enforced prohibition and rep
