ALBANY. Feb. %. -. Sweeping
changes in the state liquor laws are
made by the Administrations cs,iso
amendment which was introduced in
the Senate to-day. Millions Of ad-
dltional revenue will come to the
State and 10 thu stiles under the
terms OF the bill.
The most striking item from the
standpoint OF the New York City
dealer is the imposition OF a tax OF
per cent. on nll sales in excess OF a
sum equal 20 fifteen times the amount
OF license paid bv tho saloonkeeper
The tax is TO be collected upon the
same theory as the Federal income
tax and the saloon men are required
TO report their gross receipts upon
the penalty Of losing their licenses
and being heavily fined.
II Is estimated that the measure will
radically decrease the number Of
saloons In the State and the taxation
committee hopes TO have Il result in n
ratio OF not moro than one saloon to
each 500 inhabitants
The act changes the license fees in
all cities under 100000. In cities OF
100000 20 $4,000 the tax is increased to
$1,000. In towns from $4,000 and 1900
tho Increase Is TO $500 a year. Towns
between 1900 and $500 pay $500 and
the country places are assessed $3.50
In the Bronx, Queens ami Rich.
mond the present rates are Increased
this year 80 l-3 per cent. with a
further provision that those licenses
which are between $1,000 in Queens
and the Bronx shall pay an additional
charge OF 500 a year until they reach
a maximum Of Sl,2Co.
The borough OF Richmond gets an
increase Of SO l-3 per cent, with a
raise OF 500 each year until the foes
reach a maximum W $1,000
The Board OF Estimate Is given the
right TO set aside not more than one
half OF the territory ~ the city in
which no liquor shall be sold except
ing in hotels Of 200 rooms or more.
This local option provision applies to
future licenses and not 10 those now
in force.
Another feature OF the bill is de-
signed 10 take the ownership of sa-
looms out, OF tho hands OF wholesale

Every city in the State, excepting two

The clause relating 10 tho reserva

perhaps take these indiscriminate

calmly review the picture scenes of
the unheard of and suppressed facts

The trouble is that comparatively
few people ever heard of the many

lured. deceived or actually driven by
brute force into lives of shame, and
unless case comes home to them by
reason OF the victim being a relative
or friend they either refuse to be-

high and mighty position that such
things are no concern of theirs.
The great question of sex abuse and
white slavery in all the cities CT the

no man or woman who claims to be a

right to say it does not concern them.
