USE IF COCAINE
 WAS ENCOURAGED

BROOKLYN. Feb. S.-The trial and conviction of David Rachlin, a Brooklyn druggist, and his brother Michael. dentist, has revealed the alarming rate at which the illegal sale of cocaine has grown. Not only did these brothers dispose of all the drug those addicted to the vice demanded, but they made a system attic attempt to induce young people to form the habit.
 In sentencing David to one year in the penitentiary and the payment of $1 ,00O fine and Michael to six months with $500 fine County Judge Niemann stated that never in the history of the court had any two men been guilty of wrecking the lives of so many men and women. David admitted that in two years he had disposed of 140 ounces. An idea can be obtained of what this means from the fact that the largest house in New York only sold a dozen ounces in two years
