D|ST|LLERS TRY
TO DELAY LAW
Say Dry Enforcement Bill Is
Not Legal Until 1t Has the
Presidents Signature.
BY LOUIS LUDLOW.

News-Times Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON. D. g. Oct 20
According to reliable information
obtained here today. large distilling
interests intend TO raise the point
that the ten days period after which
a bill which has passed congress
may become law without the pres
idents signature does not begin 70
run until the bill is actually deliv-
cred to the president in person for
his consideration.
Suspend Law.
III this contention is upheld. the
prohibition enforcement bill will be
suspended in mid-air and its oper-
alton will be indefinitely postponed
as long the presidents physician s
decline to permit executive business
10 be brought before the president
for his personal attention.
The contention of the whisky in
terests will lie that il will not be
sufficient for the bill 10 be deliv-
cred at the white house before the
time will begin 10 run. II will not
be a compliance with the law for
a messenger from the capitol TO take
the bill to the white house and hand
IL 10 Secretary Tumulty. These in
terests argue that time would not
begin to run II the bill was placed
on the bed by the stick president
1t is necessary, according to these
interests. that the bill shall be
handed to the president in person
and received by him and that not
until he gets the bin in this way,
with the knowledge that ii is up 70
him for consideration. will the ten
days period start.

Petty Bul.glaries.

Several Leon business houses
were burglarized Monday night, but
the burglar only secured few pen
nies and some novelties for his
trouble w. l.. Barry's harness shop
was entered, paddock and chain on
the front door being pried off The
burglar opened his safe which was
not locked, and scattered the papers
around, but did not secure any
money. A. E., Swim's produce house
was entered, where few pennies
were secured. An attempt was made
to enter Harry Statzell's produce
house, and the Farmers Union Store,
but the effort failed. At w. A. Alex
ander's drug store a rear window
was broken out and the burglar Sc
cured dime and few pocket books
and other small articles. Then he
secured an axe and attempted to pry
up the rear window at J.; A.. MeIn7
tosh's brother James sleeps in the
store, and the noise at the window
awakened him. He secured a re-
volver from the desk and went to the
window, where the burglar was
working, trying to ,pry open the Win
dow. Jim finally raped on the wip-
dow with the barrel of his revolver
and the burglar uttered an exclama-
tion and ran, and Jim went to the
front door; and called an alarm,
which was answered by nightwatch
