Dealers Believe President
Is Ready to Proclaim the
Demobilization Complete
and Stock Is Rushed In

New York liquor dealers have been
informed, it was said yesterday, that
President Wilson soon would proclaim
emobilization completed and prohibi-
ton as a wartime measure no longer
necessary.
Acting on this advice, distillers, whole
salers, hotels and cafes are preparing
for an immense business to begin with .
in the next seven days. Huge quantities
of whiskey are arriving daily at the
bonded warer ouses here from the dis
tilierles in Kentucky, advance orders
are being placed with wholesalers by
hundreds and bartenders and walters
have been called back to their posts in
anticipation of rich harvest before
January 16, when the constitutional
prohibition amendment goes into effect
Charles Leopold, chairman of the
board of directors Of the Family
Liquor Dealers Association, declared
yesterday that numerous irregularities
have arisen out of the rush of dealers
and individuals to obtain stocks of
liquor He explained that, in accord
ance with the recent ruling of the At
torney General, certificates for mate
rial under bond in warehouses could be
sold in advance and stock claimed as
soon as the war time measure was re-
scinded. Hundreds of fictitious certi-
ficates, he asserted, have been sold and
placed in circulation, calling for stocks
that do not exist.
The prices to the consumer said
Mr.. Leopold. will not be higher than
before prohibition went into effect al
though the dealers are paying on an
average of 80 cents gallon more
1.-The drinks over the bar he said, will
be sold for about 25 or 30 cents, &C
cording to the brand. There will be
being sold in bond, will be case goods
and pure article. You'll be able, too,
to get good glass of wine for 10 or
Is cents, which is really q pre-war
price"
Mr.. Leopold said he had been in
formed that the government will also
make some provision for liquor not
sold before January is:
At the Office Of the Distillers Securi-
ties Corporation It was said that train
load after train load Of whiskey has
last two weeks. An official declared
that numbers Of brokers are placing
large orders for home use.
The situation in the beer brewing
industry, saloonkeepers say, will re-
main the same. The breweries, they
asserted, have decided to stick to the
275 per cent product. Brewers are
making more money on the 2.75 prod
uct than they could on the better beer.

Wilson Reported
''Sight!y Better''
President Secluded for
absolute Rest; Belgian,
Royalty to Delay Visit

WASHINGTON, Sept 90. - After
day of rest President Wilson was de-
scribed as "slightly better" in an Off
cial bulletin issued at 10 o'clock to-
night by DR.. Cary T. Grayson, his
physician. 1t read:
"The President is slightly better.
(signed) "GRAYSON.'
Under an absolute prohibition against
work OF. worry, President Wilson began
to-day the vacation prescribed as the
cure for his attack of nervous ex-
haustion.
After another troubled night he
slept from early morning until toward
noon, and in the afternoon was taken
for an hours automobile ride. The
rest of the day he spent secluded in his
room or talking to members of his
scrupulously away from executive
business OF any form.
SO thorough Will be the effort to
prevent him from doing any work that
he will not be permitted, for the pres
ent, to see any Of the Senate leaders
in charge of the fight for ratification
Of the peace treaty.
The visit of King Albert and Queen
Elizabeth, Of Belgium, to the White
House also Will be postponed, it was
announced definitely. because Of Mr..
Wilson's condition. Instead Of being
received by the President at the end
of the present week, the King and
Queen first will make their tour OF
the country.
1t was said at the White House that
these precautions were part of DR..
Grayson's original programme Of
quiet for the President. and were not
to be interpreted as indicating any
change in his condition. The Presi-
dents physician has made no qualifica-
ton of his original bulletin of Fri
day, in which he said the illness was
not alarming, but that a cons iderable
period of rest would be necessary for
recovery.
The feeling of White House officials
is that the nervous reaction which has
intcrfered with the Presidents sleep
and with his digestion constitutes a
condition which may require several
days to reveal the exact extent Of its
grip upon his system. Mr.. Wilson is
nearly siXtythree years of age, and his
advisers wish to take no chances of
permitting his ailment to run into
complications.
A bulletin of DR.. Grayson, given out
at 10 o'clock this morning, regarding
the Presidents condition, read:
The President passed a restless
night, but is sleeping this morning"

To Go Back to Owners
Strand Roof Is
Robbed of $1,000

Louis Batch, bookkeeper for the
Strand Roof, was going over his pay
roll at noon yesterday in his office
on the third floor Of 1888 Broadway,
between Forty-sevcnth and Forty
eighth Streets. when two men entered.
AS the bookkeeper looked up both men
drew revolvers and levellcd them at
him. One of them remarked that
Batch could put EN- up or take the
count"
To the bookkeeper in whose ears
the cIamor of noontide on Broadway
rang, the situation was incredible. He
could hear the clatter of typewriters
in adjoining offices when doors opened
in the hall to emit lunch-seeking clerks
and stenographers. The two youths
who confronted him with revolvers in
their hands and not even handker-
chief or upturned collar to conceal
their features must be phantoms Of
his imagination. he thought.
Mechanically he raised his hand to
rub his car in fashion he has when
ponde ring, and at the motion one o|
the phantoms leaped forward. Batch,
his arm half raised, struck out in dazed
fashion, and the fight was on. 1t did
not last long. Within minute or
two one of the bandits clipped the
bookkecper on the head with the butt
Of his revolver.
Batch regained his senses about half
An hour later. There was peculiar
odor in his nostrils which led him to
believe that the slight wound in his
scalp was not the only reason for his
period Of unccnsciousnoss. lie stag
gered TO The safe, which was open
when the two men entered. 1t was
still open. but $4,000 which had been
in it was gone.
The bookkeeper called Lawrence
Graf. manager Of the Strand Roof, by
telephone, and they reported the hold
up at headquarters. Meantime Bacht
had his scalp wound dressed AS the
Strand Roof does most of its business
in the evening, Batch was the sole
occupant of the Office at noon.
Although Batch and Graf were as
sured that every effort would be made
to capture the robbers, the police Of
the West Forty seventh Street station
asserted last night that they hadn't
heard Of any hold-up at the Strand

principal surface lines in which So

The disruption of the system, as ex-

FRENCH ARE WARY
OF AMERICAN CARS

PARIS tBy mail).-The liquidation of
the stocks of American army cars in
rance. and the sale by the French gov
erament of their own American cars and
Trucks have brought to the fore the
eonparativcly great fuel consumption IF
these cars. In war this was perhaps
rot So much matter. provided the COM
nastihle could be got. but in times IF
peace IL rs really a serious consideration
fa the French automobile owner as to
whether ne gets twelve or twenty .r
more miles on a gallon.
Possibly il is the fact that gas" is
cheap Ia America. in comparison with
krench Prices. that has led to this in
difference as to the mileage gallon CO.
efficient.
Be this as it may. the French are
looking askance upon many an American
car that they might otherwise be glad
to possess. because Of this very handi-
cap. When one hears of tuned up Fords
tiat leg thirty miles 10 the gallon and
newly installed carburetors in twelve
mile touring cars that now produce
twenty. it would seem as though the
matter of consumption was one Of the
very FIRST "reconstructions" and read

american car in France.
