shrieked wildly as the court thanked
the purors and ordered their dis
charge. When the jury retired at
3:O5 yesterday, Mrs. Reutinger was
confident of acquittal. Throughout
the night the Jurors wrangled over
the question, ''has a married woman,
the mother of five children, the right
of ownership of her own body, the
right to kill to protect it." So certain
was Mrs. Reutinger that she would be
freed that she arranged party here
for her five babies tonight.

he could not carry it out.

LIcENSE-HlGH TO HIGHEST.

In Massachusetts the minimum cost of first class saloon license is $1000. The maximum is not fixed by law, but there are instances on record where licenses have sold for S7,500 and $10,- 000 The average price is about $3.5O0.
 How does 1t work-this license sys- tenn raised to it's highest power? The New York mercial-certainly not a dry advocate-speaking of the in- crease of the license fee in the state of New York from s1,20O to $1,500 year, says:
 Tt seems plausible to reduce the number of drinking places and raise their status by imposing heavy li- cense fees. but in practice 1t results in turning over the business to a few brewers who are able to finance the license fees and to drive independent dealers out of business. In some cities in Massachusetts brewers and whole sale dealers control practically all the saloons and hotels and form syndi- cates to handle the monopoly so given to them by the high license law. It would be easy to form a syndicate in New York city that would pay $10,000 year for each license taken out. The revenue might be increased by giving such monopoly, but the liquor busi- ness would be run for all there was in it. and social conditions would not be improved. Massachusetts has given high license a fair test and the results are not what it's original advocates promised"
