 German Officials.

PARIS, March 31.-Raymond SWo- boda, who was a passenger of the French liner Tourraine, which was badly damaged by fire while crossing the Atlantic from New York to Ha- yre, has been indicted op the charge of having fired the ship.

SPRINGFIELD, H., March 31.- More than 300 persons who were habitual users of cocaine, morphine, or other injurious drugs before the new federal law preventing their sale went into effect on March l, have been committed to the asylums of this state.
 Physicians are alarmed over the rapid increase in the number of in- sanity cases resulting from the users of drugs being deprived of their sup plies. It is estimated that there are 3OOOO persons in the state addicted to the drug habit and still larger increase in the number of insanity cases is looked for during the coming month. Physicians state that the "s- CTS of cocaine and morphine stocked up in anticipation of being deprived of their supplies and as their stocks become exhausted they will manifest insanity.
 Doctors are urging establishing gov ernment hospitals where users of the prohibited drugs may receive treat ment. Hundreds of private sanitar- iums have sprung into existence where patients are treated by fakirs and reputable physicians are urging closer regulations of the hospitals. to afford protection to the unfortunates.

 is discouraged by it's repeated rever- ses. That Germany realizes the i'm portance of success in the Carpathians
 is evidenced by the large number of troops being rushed to Galicia and south of the mountains to meet the Russian invasion through Dukla pass.

not mean to say that every brewer every dister or

Those who represent the liquor interests are
constituencies in their methods they debauch the in

which they dictate. The Democratic party can only
hope for success when it gives expression to high
