occupied the Speakers chair to take
part in the debate.
There was silence as the Speaker
walked through the we'll and up the
centre aisle. 1t was unusual to see
the Speaker take sides openly against
eyes were turned on him. When he
reached the side Of the majority lead
er's chair he turned toward the ros-
trum and warned the Assemblymen
that as they voted on this question so
would they be counted next fall when
they ran for reelection.
1T is true that there is a great deal
OF property invested in the liquor traf-
tic and that a vast number Of men
are employed in it," said Speaker
Sweet, "but never was there time
when the labor employed in this traffic
would be more welcomed by the farm
crs and munition makers. where they
are really needed. We must vote on
this question as individuals and as
our consciences dictate. I believe that
the only question that should be voted
on is the Federal amendment We
should not postpone action, but we
should vote on the adoption of the
Federal amendment"
After the vote showed that the
Speakers plea against postponement
was successful, H. Edmund Machold,
of jefferson County, offered an amend
ment to the Hill-McNab resolution,
turning it into "wet" measure
Walter S. McNab, of Schenectady,
led the fight to beat the amendment.
He said that it was matter for the
Legislature to decide-not the people
"We are acting in poor grace when
our work." said Mr.. McNab. "For three
years l have fought for prohibition and
during that time the breweries and
saloons have tried to stick the knife
into me ard turn it around. | do not
believe that the Governor of this state
will sign a measure which says that
the Legislature of this state shall dele
gate to the people of the state that
which is the Legislatures sole province
to do.''
Charles d. Donohue, of New York,
minority leader, asked if Mr.. McNab
was speaking for the Governor.
"No," replied Mr.. McNab "But |
have high regard for his judgment" +"
Then Mr.. Donohuc, for the Demo-
Gratis, pleaded for the Machold amend
ment, and Abraham I. Shiplacoff, on be-
half of the Socialists, made a like plea
While he was talking about the pro-
priety of submitting all such ques-
tions to the people and declaring that
his lifelong principles, G. T. Davis, Of
Rome, asked:
Didn't you and Whitehorn, the only
Socialists here last year, vote against
local option (Which was fought bitterly
by the liquor interests) 2"
Shiplacof paused, and finally stam-
mcrcd that if he voted that way he did
so because things were in such a tur-
moil on that occasion that he did not
know what was before the house.
The drys laughed at this, laugh
which was shared by all in the house.
Mr. Adler, for the Republicans, also
pleaded for the Machold amendment.
The vote showed that every Demo-
crat in the house but two voted with
the vets. The nine Socialists present
also voted solidly with the vets.
The detailed vote follows:

Two Detectives
Indicted i'm Loft
Robbery Cases
Heydorn and Burgess Are
Charged With Burglary
ind Bribery
By BRIGGS

Indictments charging burglary and
bribery were found yesterday against
William Heydorn and Edward c. Bur-
CESS, detectives Of the Second Branch
Bureau. According to the testimony of
two -betweens," the detectives were
connected with silk loft burglaries and
shared in the proceeds of the stolen
goods. Three separate indictments
were found against Heydorn and two
against Burgess. They were suspended
by Police Commissioner Enright soon
after the indictments had been re-
turned to Judge Rosalsky, in General
Sessions.
The specific burglary on which Hey
dorm was indicted took place on Feb
rualy 16 last in the loft of Fithian g.
Co., 104 East Twenty-tifth Street, when
$1,000 worth Of silks were stolen and
taken to the store of Fleischman e.
Yellin, 346 Sixth Avenue. Isidore
Pindsk, of 81 East Nincty-seventh
Street, and Abraham Schoenfeld, an
elevator boy in the Fithian loft, who
lives at 20 Clinton Street, participated
in the burglary. They confessed, and
were indicted. Harry Yellin and Will
lam Fleischman, alleged receivers of
the stolen goods, are under arrest. and
their cases are before the grand jury.
According to Assistant District At
$47S out of the $4,000 which was OBJ
tanned for the silk from Fithian's loft.
An equal amount, it is said. went to
another detective.
"This is only the beginning of q
number of other arrests, which will
probably result from an investigation
OF loft robberies by the District Attor-
ney's Office" Mr.. Eder told Judge Ro-
salsky when Heydorn was held in So. 300
pail. Robert Il. Elder appeared for
Heydorn. Mr.. Eder intimated that he
expected that indictments against
other police officers would result from
the investigation.
Dlstrlct Attorney Swami said he was
convinced that such an abnormal num-
per of burglaries in silk lofts of Man
haitian as were reported during the
year 1917 could not have been possible

GERMANS BRUTAL TO PRISON.

THE Germans are frequently very
brutal 20 the prisoners. A sentry
uses his bayonet first and inquiries
afterwari He viii never be pun
ished for anything that he does to
prisoners.
For example. a party Of English
had been sent from Celle to work in
salt mine. This was all right, but
is was very hot down the mine-so
hot that the boys removed their shirts
The fine salt dropped from the roof
upon their bare backs. causing large
open sores. At last they were sent
to Celle for medical attention. They
were kept there for four days. The
doctor couldn't or wouldn't do any
thing for them, and they were sent
back.
upon arrival ut the mine the boys
refused to go down. So the German
sentries charged this defenseless
crowd with fixed bayonets One Of
their number was killed. and the rest
were forced to 20 down the mine
again. These fellows | knew person
