Yesterday by Philip L. Garnett, ,oun-
sel for Edna Warrington, colored'

duced from $4,000 to $1,000. In re-
Viewing the testimony of DR.. Llewin

Delaware Hospital. who said Richard
Stats, colored, who, it is alleged,
was assaulted by the woman, was n
serious condition, and liable to be
stricken with blood poison as se-
suit OF his wounds, Judge Churchman
said, the question in his opinion, was
not rthat the bail was too large. as
there was a probability of it being IN

could not say positively that Stats
would recover, but he thought be
would. The woman was shown to
have a police record.
Edna will be given a hearing next

STATES MUST
ENFORCE WEBB
LIQUOR LAW
attorney General M'ReynOIdS
Gives Interpretation Of
Antl-Shipment Act
NO FEDERAL PENALTY, AND
STATES HAVE JURISDICTION

Many Wilmingtonians are interest
ID in the announcement fromWashing-
ton yesterday that the Webb-Kenyon
Jaw, forbidding interstate shipments
of liquor into "dry" States is not a
criminal statute, and violations of 1t
cannot be prosecuted in the United
States courts. Attorney-General Nc
Reynolds so declared in instructions
aent today to every United States 1T
torney in the country. The law
merely prohibits such interstate traf-
nc and contains no penalty for in
fractions.
The ruling of Attorney General
McReynolds is of all the more inter-
est IN Delaware because of the ar
rest In Georgetown of William Crier,
agent for a Philadelphia liquor store,
on a charge Of delivering liquors into
Sussex county. Grier's object is to
force legal test OF the constitution
slity of the Hazel law and the Webb
Kenyon law.
"Its purpose" said Attorney-Gen
bral McReynolds yesterday in speak
ing OF the Webb law, 'is to permit
State laws to operate in respect OF
Intoxicating liquors moving in inter-
State commerce"
This is the first time the Depart
ment of Justice has construed the
Webb law. which was declared uncon-
Btitutional by former President Taft
and former Attorney-General Wicker
sham. President Taft vetoed the bill
on the ground that it violated the
Interstate commerce clause of the
Constitution by delegating the regu-
iation of interstate commerce TO the
States. The bill was passed over his
veto.
Attorney-General McReynolds' in
depreciation Is said 10 mean that the
Federal Government is not called
upon to enforce a law for the viola
tion Of which no penalty is imposed
and that the interstate commerce
forbidden by the law is outlaw com
merce in regard to which the States
are free to apply their statutes. The
General did not attempt tc
pass upon the constitutionality Of tb'
act, and Il Is believed that this lues.
tion ultimately may reach the United
States Supreme Court.

Plans for the civil government of the
Canal Zone and the operation of the
canal as a completed water course
have not been overlooked by the Will
son administration. Secretary Garrison
of the War Department. Col. Goethals,
chairman of the Panama canal COM
mission, and governor of the Canal
Zone, have discussed the future ad-
ministration of the canal and Of the
zone and have made considerable
progress toward formulating a plan of
government and operation. The Score
tary of War has mass of material
bearing upon this matter resting upon
his desk.
In the opinion of Secretary Garrison.
Col. Goethals and the President OF the
United States, there is no imperative
necessity to put the operation of the
canal into civilian hands as soon as 1t Is
open to traffic. AS long arrange
ments are made for the collection of
tolls, for the mechanical operation of the
canal and every other necessary detail
of management, it does not appear to
these authorities TO matter whether it is
done under the present administration of
the canal or under the proposed perma-
nent form of government.
