virginia. Anti-Saloon League, who ar
rived In the city yesterday to attend
the State Law Enforcement conven-
o which opened last evening In the

Mr.. Crabbe bases his prediction on
facts that he has secured on recent
visits and communications with peo-
pie residing in the Buckeye state. The
people OF Ohio who have already
opened then campaign are pursuing
IL IN the same manner that West Vir-
ginians did two years ago. and he
further said that many Of those who
were supporters of the vets in the
last election arc now leaders OF the
dry fight. This. he said, is caused
by the people ~resenting the DONNA
tion OF h Cincinnati home rule.
He expressed himself as being sat
ished with the conditions that exist

the Judge. IS the most cherished relic

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1.-THE Belgian
legation here issued the following state
ment tonight:
According to a cable received by the
Belgian legation today. the city of Court
raj (Belgium). has been fined 10000 900
marks (about $2.5OO.OOO) by Germany, not
for disobedience, but for obeying the or
ders OF German commanders. The cir
cumstances are as follows:
Two German officers, Commander
Maxeman and Connnandant Pschors, ar
rived at Courtrsi and ordered the munic-
ipal authorities to have all arms depos-
tied in the tower of Broel. under threat
OF heavy penalty. In compliance with
these instructions all arms were de-
posted In the place named. Then there
arrived new German commander, Com
mandant Won Kneesebeek. who on going
to the tower OF Broel saw the arms in
the place where the other German COM
manders had ordered them put, and
thereupon fined the city of Courtrai 10
OOOOoO marks, under pretext that It was
a clandestine deposit OF arms, in spite OF
the fact that the orders of his predeees.
sors to place the arms In the tower OF
Broel was known to everybody and even
placarded on the walls OF Courtrai"
