TAFT SITS AS JUDGE.
President Listens to Arguments on
@What Is Whisky?'

Washington, June 29.-In the swell
tering heat of the cabinet room. filled
with expert whisky men and lawyers,
President Taft labored again today
with the question which the Roose-
welt administration found SO vexing-
What is whisky?'
The entire time of the president
previous to the regular cabinet meet
ing was consumed in listening to ar
gument on the exceptions made to
the opinion of Solicitor General
Bowers covering the various phases of
the controversy.
THE straight whisky" representa-
tives had their inning at the hearing
today. They were John G. Carlisle.
former secretary of the treasury, and
Edmund w. Taylor, Frankfort, KY.
While they agreed with Mr.. Bowers
that neutral spirits is not whisky, they
directed their principal arguments
against his conclusion that neutral
spirits mixed with whisky may still
whisky.
They maintained that such is imi-
tation whisky and that If the decision
of the solicitor general on this point
be upheld by the president, it would
be sold on the market under a mis-
apprehension, Notwithstanding the in
tention of congress to legislate against
all whisky that is not genuine. Mr..
Carlisle devoted most of his attention
to reviewing the legal decisions in
support of his position. One of these
upon which stress was laid was the
opinion of Attorney General Taft
father of the president. to the effect
that alcohol was not whisky.

UNRAVELlNG A MYSTERY
Police Think They Are About to Solve
the Bersin Murder.

New York, June 29.--While the public
has been engrossed with the details of
the Elsie Sigel murder and the Mrs.
Woodill tragedy in Maryland, the New
York police report that they have been
making excellent progress towards the
solution of the murder of Samuel
Bersin, the young painter whose head
the custody of a boy on an east side
street three weeks ago. Eighteen Jew
ish members of the detective staff at
police headquarters have been working
constantly on the case and they have
just reported the finding of evidence
that Bersin was not only killed because
of jealousy but also to obtain the val
liable jewelry and diamonds he con-
stant1y wore.
Although Bersin received only SIP a
week as a painter it is known that he
spent considerably more than this and
in their efforts to ferret out the crime,
hte police saw that they expect TO ar
rest very soon a man who is believed
to have shared with Bersin the tran
STORY affections of a young woman ON
the east side and with whom, it is al
legged, Bersin had an appointment in
the morning of the day he was killed.
The detectives say that this man was
not only Jealous of the attentions that
Bersin had paid to the young woman,
but that he had made covetous re-
marks concerning Bersin's great dis
play of jewelry. When the body was
found the jewelry was missing. The
suspected man has disappeared, but
the police say that they expect to have
him in custody in a few days.
A large part Of Bersin's income is re-
ported to have come from one of the
parties who will become a most i'm
portant witness If an arrest is made.

TreSSeS Gone.

Frankfort. Kan, June 29.-Edna
Chadwick, the 14-year-old daughter of
f. A Chadwick, who lives nine miles
east of here, is heartbroken over the
loss of two large braids of hair. When
she awoke one morning both large
braids were found on the bed beside
her.
In the room where she slept there
was work basket in which was pair
of small scissors, but they were dull.
When the basket was used the day be-
fore a paper was placed upon It and
when examined Friday it was in the
same condition apparently.
No reason can be assigned why any
one should cut the girls hair off. Her
father and brother had their hair cut
the previous day. She had examined
their heads, commented upon their ap-
pearances and seemed interested in the
matter. 1t is believed that while she
was asleep she got the shears and cut
the braidS off

FROM THE FAR NORTH.
Member of Franlzlin's Lost Party May
Be Alive.

New York, June 29.-In letter to
the American Museum Of Natural
History, V. Stefansson, leader of
party which the museum sent out a
year and half ago to explore the
arctic region, tells of his remarkable
quest for white man and woman
with fair hair" who are understood
to be living among the Eskimos, eight
or nine hundred miles east of Colville,
near the mouth of Coppermine river.
DR. Stefansson states that he believes
this white man and woman to have
been members of either Franklin's
lost expedition in that neighborhood
or of one of the lost Icelandic colonies
of Greenland. He wrote that never
before had a man and woman of the
caucasian race caused such comment
among the Eskimos who in that
vicinity had never seen white human
beings and who are believed to be
something in the order of deities.
The letter of DIR. Stefansson which
has taken more than five months to
reach New York, stated that while he
was showed in during last winter, he
had studied the Eskimos so thorough
ly that he had mastered 5000 words
of their dialect

TRANSMITTED BLOOD.
Successful Operation Performed in
Chicago Hospital.

Chicago. June 29.-An apparently
successful operation in which a Chi
cago physician gave his blood to save
the life of his brother has been per-
formed in Wesley hospital. DIR. Jas.
+. Churchill, member of the hos
pitaI staff, allowed his blood to be
transfused into the veins of George
Churchill, Is years old, of Minnea-
polls.
George Churchill was taken to the
hospital suffering from pernicious
anomie which medical authorities say
is rarely cured. The disease is as
cribed to the lack of red corpuscles in
the blood which in consequence loses
its reproductive power and practically
becomes dead
DR.. Churchill believed that the in
fusion of healthy blood in the pa
TENTS veins might effect a cure After
consultation it was decided to try the
operation. The young man has been
discharged from the hospital and
gone to his home, apparently greatly
improved in health and in a fair way
to recover.
