POLICE CHARGES

No Action Will Be Taken
Until Department of

Charges against an official Of the
Police Department in connection with
the war the Department Of Justice is

ton will not be filed until the investi-
cation which other officers of the de-
partment are conducting under direc-
ton of Major Sylvester, has been
completed.
Major Sylvester said this morning
no action could be taken until the re-
port had been submitted to him. As
yet he said there is nothing that
would Justify formal charges being
filed, and 1t will probably be several
days before the Investigation is COM
pleted.
While 1t Is said agents of the De-
partment Of Justice have compiled q
report involving at least one police
official, who is alleged to have had
criminal knowledge Of the operations

report had been forwarded to the
superintendent of police. Major Syl-
vester said that he had never seen
the report.
At the office Of Commissioner John
ston, who has general supervision of
the Police Department, 1t was also
said that the report had not been re-
ceived as yet. Major Sylvester said
that the only knowledge he has that
an officer of his department was in
volved with the bookmakers is an
anonymous letter received several
days ago.
Commissioner Johnston had given or

HOUSE DEMOCRATS
REJECT CHANGES IN
THE PUBLICITY BILL
After Long Caucus They
II Send Measure to
~ Conference.

The Senate was informed by the
House today that the lower body cannot
accept the Senate amendments on the
campaign publicity bin. This notice is
the result of a caucus, mark ed by much
wranglipg, held by the House Demo-
Gratis last night. The talkfest lasted
until midnight.
Southern Democrats finally had their
way after delivering themselves of a
number of fiery speeches directed
against the plan to extend campaign
publicity to primaries in the South. The
Democrats of that section feared that
this might mean Federal interference
with the race problem, which is now
satisfa ctortly adjusted by means of the
primary and negro disfranchisement
laws.
There was also a great deal Of talk
about the Senate amendments which
limit the cost of a Congressional cam
paign TO $4,000 for a Senator and 5000
for a Representative.
After the flow of fervid oratory, the
Caucus voted to reject the Senate
amendments TO the bill and to send the
matter to conference. 1t is not improb-
able, however, that the House will
finally have to yield to the Senate if the
latter should be unrelenting. The
Democrats have made campaign pub

Poor old John Barleycorn underwent
terrible grilling at his trial in the
New National Museum this morning.
Justice Harvey w. Wiley and Associate
Justice F. L Dunlap, who are to de-
termine whether he shall tell on the
covering he wears what he is made UP of,
listened to testimony by ]. R Mauff
that Mr.. Beer is not only yellow"
but that he is bleached.
1t was claimed he would be better II
he were not treated to sugar. Even DIR.
Wiley was unkind enough to criticise
the size of his head. and said he soon
would prescribe the height of collar he
should wear. He objected to the prac-
tice of some bartenders putting chok-
ers on the glasses.
That the modern John Barleycorn Oft
en- is Of doubtful genuineness was de-
clared by Mr.. Mauff, who, on behalf
of the National Consumers League and
barley growers of Minnesota, has been
assailing substitutes in beer for the
last two sessions.
Il will prove" he declared dramat-
tcally, that one of the biggest brew
cries in the country has stated that
beer can be made from cabbage leaves.
wouldn't cabbage beer be pretty
heady beer?" interrupted DR.. Wiley.
Mr.. Mamt did not assert that John
BarleycorH was picked" when It was
decided to haul him before Uncle Sans
court-the board Of food and drug in
pecton-but it was claimed that he Is
addicted to the use of preservatives Of
deletertous nature. He has the bad
habit, according to Mr.. Mauff, of TAX
ing in such things as bisIlphate Of lime
In changing his color: from light to
dark, Barleycorn uses burnt sugar and
carameliZed sugar and to keep his COM
pleXion always the same, regardless Of

Even the heredity Of John Barleycorn
was discussed by those having his case
in hand. His pedigree was traced to
the days Of Herodotus and Caesaer

BRANDEIS ON TRUSTS.

Washington, Dec. 2S.-Louis d. Bran
deis. the well-known Boston lawyer. in
testifying before the senate committee
on interstate commerce, in dealing with
the trust question, gave expression to
the following: "The successful trusts
have created conditions absolutely in
consistent with Americas industrial and
social needs. In our Just Indignation
over the crimes disclosed at Los Angeles
should not statesmen seek the cause of
this widespread, deliberate outburst of
violence? Was it not because they. and
men like them. believed that the wage
Garner, acting singly or collectively, is
not strong enough to secure substantial
Justice? Is there not a casual connection
between the development of these huge
and indomitable trusts and the horrible
crimes now under investigation? Are
not these irresistible trusts important
contributing factors of social unrest? Is
it not irony to speak of equality of OPP
portunity in country cursed with their
bigness?'

HOW TO JUDGE MANS HONESTY.
The Man. who Lets You "See for
Yourself'' Is Usually Honest.

Men, as a rule, are first discovered by
their enemies. Their antagonists turn on
the searchlight, and the proof OF merit
will depend on being able to stand the
gleam. There are always men who aim
to tear down every good thing, and there
have been men who set about to ridicuIe
the Gauss Catarrh Treatment, and fig
uratively tear IL INTO shreds. They turned
on the gleam and dissected 1t. They ex-
pected to find mere dross and found gold.
So Gauss has been discovered by his
enemies.
But, regardless of all this, II a man
will Show the goods he has, willingly
and openly, and let his patients prove
first to themselves by their own sense the
value OF what he offers them instead OF
expecting them to take his word for IT.
there must be something of value in his
goods, and 1t must show his intentions
to be honest.
Every catarrh victim should make q
test OF the great Gauss Catarrh Treat
ment. 1t is free. All you have to do is

nation and instructions. It costs you
nothing, and you put yourself under no
obligation whatever.
Use II according to instructions; don't

get, and 1t will prove to you that the

that the Gauss Catarrh Treatment can
do Il.
