NEW PROOF THAT
NEW JERSEY IS
SOURCE OF DRUG
New York Cocaine Victims Get
Supply of dope" from
This State.

New corporations of the belief that
many victims of the cocaine and her
DIN habits get their drugs from New
Jersey was given yesterday by Fran
els ]. Martin. district attorney of
the Bronx.
AT the present time he said. Il
have no less than a dozen drug deal
ers in the county Jail whG have vol
UNFAIRLY confessed TO me that their
supply of drugs came through Man.
haitian from New Jersey. They have
also told me that the largest dealers
in drugs in the city keep the greefer
part OF their supply in New Jersey.
A new system of drug peddling has
been discovered in the Bronx through
the arrest Of several newsboys, Co.
eaine and heroin are being given TO
customers by coneealing the little
packages in newspapers. one news
boy, according to Detective McKen-
ma, Of the Bronx, made a large profit
by selling a soap powder which look
ed like cocaine. After making sew
eral sales he would disappear before
the fraud was discovered.
Joe Brown, alias Abraham Brown.
who has been sentenced four times for
burglary, was held in $1,000 bail yes
terday for the Fderal grand jury by
Commissioner Houghton on a charge
of manufacturing an opium COM
pound for smokers. Ten one-quart
tins of crude opium were found in
his rooms at 20 Forsythe street.
Brown told the commissioner that
he learned how to do this while he
was in Sing Sing. He thought he
could make more money by that
business than by burglary, he said.
The first commitment of a drug vic
tim TO a hospital. as provided for
under the new Boylan law, was made
by Magistrate Dodd, in the Yonkers
Court, when George Smith, of $50
Herkimer street, was brought before
him on a charge Of using cocaine.
Smith was arrested once before on a
similar charge. but proved so useful
TO the district attorney in acting as q
stool pigeon" that he was not sent
to jail. Commitment 10 a hospital
does not count as a conviction.

New Drug Law in New York
Hits the Honest Practitioners

ASBuRY PARK. July 16.-Dr. Ed
win +, Stewart. secretary of the
National Association Of Retail Men,
meeting In convention last night at the
st. James Hotel, said that the Boylan
anti-drug law, recently enacted in
New York State, although aimed at
the illegal purveyors OF heroin, CO.
eajne, morphine and similar deleter-
ious drugs, struck primarily at the
legitimate medical profession without
curtailing the Illicit sale of the drugs
by street vendors and quack doctors,
THE true effect of>the law has been
demonstrated, il seems TO me-" said
he. physicians who use these drugs
for legitimate medicinal purposes.
such as easing the pain of patients
temporarily, are now hedged about
with red tape. 1t is practically i'm
possible, even where a second in
lection OF morphine is indispensable
to sufferer TO supply it on account
of the red tape of registering each
prescription"

BANKRUPT PROBE
EXTENDS TO HOME
OF ". A. BAGL|N
AIphonse BagIin, a Son, Turns
Over S4oo in Cash After
Long CriIling.

Creditors OF the bankrupt Kearny
hat works. 1s1 Chestnut street, have
extended their Investigation to the
home Of William a. Baglin, president
Of the company. One result OF the
examination yesterday in Bankruptcy
Court was the turning over of $500 by
Alphonse Baglin. former vice-presi-
dent of the company.
While Alphonse Bagiin was on the
stand he told of receiving more than
$4,000 from his father, William A.
Baglin, for rent of the Chestnut street
plant The witness told a number
Of contradictory stories as to where
he had the money. At first he In
sisted he had $500 in a bureau
drawer.
Under the grilling of Referee Ed
win g. Adams the witness admitted
that he had not been telling the
truth and that his mother held the
money for him, The change in tesp-
nony came when the referee asked
if Alphonse had any objection TO
someone accompanying him to the
house to inspect the bureau drawer,
The witness would not consent TO this
and was forced 10 admit he had not
been telling the truth.
A recess was then taken. Alphonse
was ordered by the court to bring
back the $500 with him. He returned
with $500, which the referee an
nounced he would hold until the ap-
pointment of a receiver. Baglin de-
clared he had been mistaken about
the amount and IL was $500 instead OF
$500.
Joseph Kahrs. attorney for the hat
works, announced that the money was
being delivered under portest. he
contended that, the S400 was part of
the sum paid Alphonse for rent and
that he had every right to it. Mr..
Nahrs gave notice that action would
BE taken 10 recover the money.
Mrs. Amelia Baglin, wife of William
A. Baglin. was the next witness. She
was questioned closely by Nathan
Bidder, attorney for creditors, and
with Alphonse for the S400 Mrs.
Baglin testified that they went to the
house. at SO North Sixth street, and
that she got the money from a collar
box which was hidden under her bed.
She also told of having loaned $500
n cash to the Kearny hat works.
Mrs Baglin was not sure whether
she got the $500 from her handbag,
collar box, pillow case or from under
She carpet Inen Referee Adams asked
Mrs, Baglin If she would object to
having some messenger from the
court accompany her TO the home
and inspect the various hiding places
for her money, At first Mrs Baglin
was willing 10 carry out this pro-
gram, but Attorney Kahrs objected
10 the unusual proceeding and Mrs.
Baglin changed her mind.
William A. Bagiin was recalled 10
the stand and Mr.. Bilder Immediately
accused him of signaling to his wife
while she was testifying. Baglin de-
MED the charge en- phatieally. assert
ing that he was merely twisting his
neck away from the collar, which
bothered him. BagIin then proceeded
TO diyest himself of collar and tie,
complaining that IL was too warm.
The examination will continue tomor-
row.

which came from the library Of Judge
staab; it was sold, along with other
looks, after the judges death. The
volume is heavily annonated in Judge
Staabs writing.
Judging by the annotatlons, Mr..
Hickey said, Judge Staab put heroic
labor on the work. Many of the anno-
tations were Ineligible and valuable,
but others didn't seem so understand
allie, Mr.. Hickey said. He himself
wuold not annotate a book in such a
manner, the witness said, and he
didn't think any other lawyer in Albu-
querque would. But, Mr. Hickey said,
neither the annotations nor anything
else had given rise in his mind to any
question respecting Juge staabs SAN
,ity. He had no opinion to advance on
the question of the judges sanity.
The testimony brought out the fact
that the book brought $25 at the auc-
ticn, Colonel Dobson outbidding Mr..
Hickey. Mr. Hickey said he wanted
the work not only because the notes
would be valuable to him as law
yer but because he regarded the book
as a legal curiosity. Mr.. Hickey sub
Isequently obtained the book from Mr..
Dobson.
The servant, McKane, testified that
On one occasion in Santa Fe Judge

WILSON SAYS THERE is
NO NEED FOR WARFARE
ANGRY NATIONS SHOULD SPEND
A YEAR THINKING OVER
GRIEVANCES

Pittsburgh, Pa, Oct 24.-Peace com
mission treaties of the kind negotiat-
ed between the United States and
many foreign countries were spoken
of by President Wilson here today as
the means Of shedding light on" dis
prtes which will make the use Of
force unnecessary.
The president predicted that after
International disputes have been dis
cussed for a year, as provided in these
treaties, cannon will not be found ne
cessary to settle them. The presi-
dent addressed mass meeting in
celebration of the sixth anniversary
of the Y. M. GA. movement in Pitts
burgh and the SEVENTEEN birthday Of
the association organized in London
in 1874 and dwelt on the lessons Of
Christianity, urging young men to be
progressive and work for the public
welfare.
The president pleaded for homes
with Christian atmospheres, saying
that Christianity is catching and that
children reared in Christian homes are
more apt to be good citizens than
others.
1T would be good for men, both
young and old, to detach themselves
more from business and think of high
er things said Mr.. Wilson after he
had opened his address by saying that
by his being away from Washington,
congress could have more leisure to
adjourn"
How tired | am of the men whose
virtue is selfish because it is self-pro-
tective. hate the moral coward and
despise him as well. l wish the
towards would stay on the sidelines
and let others to do the things to be
done. DO not follow people who stand
still. Nowadays leaders must be ag-
gressive
@If you can guess beforehand who
your leaders are to be the chances
are they will be useless. I believe in
popular government because under it
we do not know from what family or
class or occupation the leaders viii
come.
4 hope that there will now be a
great rush of Christian spirit on the
doers Of evil. What you have to do is
to fight not with cannon, but with
right" I
