UN1ONTOWN, Pa. April 13.-The
license court sitting today in this city
with Judge Van Swearingen on the
bench, granted licenses to sell liquor
in the city of Point Marion. Pa, to
three hotels. In granting the licenses
Judge Van Swearingen quoted the
state law of Pennsylvania to the et-
feet that not more than a quart of
liquor could be sold to any one per-
son. and for violation of this law
the license, would be revoked by the
court. Petitions were presented by
thousands of Fairmont and Morgan
town people. praying that If the court
granted licenses to saloon keepers ct
Point Marion, that it refuse them the
right to sell Intoxicating liquors in
bulk.
In presenting these petitions the pc
titioners stated that the law had been
violated in this respect at Point Ma
rion. but failure to produce evidence
to that effect resulted in the saloon
keepers not being subject to prose-
cution.
On Easter Sunday the various con-
gregations of this city took UP the
matter of asking the license court, sit
ting at Uniontown, to refuse to sell
intoxicants in bulk in case licenses
were granted to Point Marion saloon
keepers, to the effect that petitions ag-
gregating five or six thousand names
were sent to Uniontown, similar ac-
tion having been taken in Morgan
town. This was done for the protec-
ton of West Virginians. The city
commissioners took similar action ana
wired their sanction to the petition.
Fairmont citizens generally will re.
gret that the action desired by the
people was not sustained but will no
doubt be active in seeing to it that
the Pennsylvania state law is not vio-
lated in the respect to bulk sold to
West Virginians.

LONDON, April 13.-The Russian
offensive in the Carpathians continues
to meet a strenuous defense on the
part Of the combined Teutonic army.
and although it appears to be slowly
winning it's way forward toward the
plains of Hungary. 1t has encountered
great difficulties.
The Austrians have been preparing
their defensive positions throughout
the period which has intervened since
the Russians first raided this same
territory. To relieve the pressure on
the Russians is an additional reason
for the activity of their allies in the
west. The report that Emperor Will
liam personally is directing the opera
tions in the Carpathians Is doubted. as
Is also the rumor from Cologne that
Field Marshal Won Hindenberg has
asked for reinforcements to the extent
of 100000 men to undertake another
campaign against Warsaw. 1t ia
thought to be far more likely that he
will attempt to divert the attention of
the Russians by a thrust form the
direction of Cracow.
Reports of battle in the North Sea
which have come from so many differ.
ent sources. apparently are mythical.
that British officers have been impris-
ond in the military detention barracks
in retaliation for the refusal of the
British to accord the same treatment
to crews of German submarines as to
other prisoners. is expected to place
additional labor on the shoulders OF
American diplomats. Their good of.
fees will probably be requested in this
connection. According to message
from Amsterdam, the German foreign
minister has presented note to Am.
bassador Gerard protesting against
Great Britain's course and asking Mr..
Gerard to arrange a personal investt-
cation by a member of the staff of the
American embassy in London.
PARIS. April 1s.-The marine min.

Political Issue.

London, England-Marked differ
ences of opinion have developed over
the governments measure for lessen
ing the consumption Of liquor. Pro
hibition leaders declare the imposi-
ton Of a heavy tax "a sop thrown
to the interests which have brought
a curse upon England" They assert
that the burden of the tax will be
borne by the women and children who
have suffered in the past from the
liquor traffic, predicting that the in
creased price resulting from the tax
will not deter the habitual drinkers.
The Unionists probably will make
the new tax political issue. Lead
ers of the party have held a confer
ence to determine their future course
of action.
According to the brewery association
officials, the new tax will have little
or no effect on the present price of
beer, but will practically double the
price of whisky. The chief aim OF
the government is to curb the use of
beer by employees of the government
plants.
The tax on wines is expected to
increase their price two to three shil.
