Washington, Feb. 1.-THE Washing

la in the angel cake are both likely to
be visited by the Metropolitan police
if Senator Sheppard S prohibition bill
for the District of Columbia becomes
a law.
The bill now before the senate is
regarded by dry authorities as the most
thorough, comprehensive, iron bound,
steel rivited lid ever devised. The res
idents of the District have no vote or
say as to whether they wish to venture
upon so complete a drought. It's all
up to congress.
The bill not only prohibits the manu-
fucture, sale or giving away Of liquor,
but it provides that the mere possession
of liquor shall be deemed sufficient
evidence to convict a person of selling
it.
Search of any premises may be made
upon an informal complaint. DiscOv-
cry of liquor on the premises will void
the lease and give the owner the right
to eject the occupant. Common carriers
are prohibited bringing alcohol bever.
ages into the district. Any scheme or
device to evade the law shall be re-
garded the same as the sale of liquor.

chancellor of the local consulate, Tur-
kish Consul Hail. the German vice con-
sui and men prominent in business and
shipping circles here. immigration
heads, former steamer Mongolia of
ficers and Chinese were named in the
smuggling cases.
Indictments formally returned last
night against these men were follow
ed by issuance of warrants. Smith
was the additional person indicted but
his name was included, it is understood
so he may be available as a witness
against BOpp and others.
The "bOmb indictments" charge a
conspiracy to blast tunnels in Canada
and likewise plots against steamers.
The neutrality indictments charge
that an expedition to supply German
war vessels was put on foot, with the
Sacramento and other ships used as sup
ply vessels from this port.
Use of the local port as a "naval
base' is one count; false swearing to
manifests is another.
Bonds of $1,000 in the neutrality
cases and $2,500 in the bomb cases was
the anticipated amount. The consular
officials, the first to be involved in
such serious charges, will however, be
accorded the diplomatic courtesy of
going without bonds because of their
positions.
No trouble was anticipated in max.
ing the roundup.

time, he wrote on the militia that he
regarded it as an uniustifiable I'M

The following day, the president
answered that personally he believed
it "unwise" to extend further self
government to the islands "at this
time" but held it would be inadvis-
able for him to dissent if both houses
concurred, though he suggested ne must
withhold Judgment until the measure
reached him.
Yesterday the secretary sent his res

proper for him to continue when there
was such difference between him and
the president on fundamental prin-

The president expressed livery great

Ohio Gas Boom Dying
and Investors Lose Cash
(By United Press

Cleveland, Ohio, Feb. 1.-THE gas
boom in this vicinity is over. Too many
persons wanted to get rich quick, and as
a result investors have lost hundreds
of thousands of dollars. Experts to-
day placed the gas flow in Cuyahoga
county fields at 35,0OOOOO cubic feet
per day. A year ago it was 1OO,0O0,000
and the field was rated as the most
active in the world. Hundreds of wells,
driven at cost of $4,000 each, are be.
ing pulled, and the piping sold for 5000.
Most of the gas being used here is piped
from West Virginia.
