BILL WOULD LIMIT
DEALING IN NARCOTICS
Prohibits Export and Restricts
Import of Drugs.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 4.--General ap-
proval of the terms OF the Jones' Miller
narcotics bill was expressed by Gov
ernment officials at hearing to-day
before a House Ways and Means sub
committee. The bill would amend the
Harrison act to prohibit all expectation
and limit importation Of cocaine, NOR
phine and other narcotic drugs. IT Is
understood that it is directed especially
at the traffic in China.
Assistant Solicitor G. II. Hackworth
of the State Department said the pro-
posed legislation would be OF assistance
In meeting the terms of the Hague In
ternational anti-opium convention. He
expressed the opinion. however. that a
practical difficulty might be found In
controlling the shipment or narcotics in
bond from other countries through the
United States. The bill would withdraw
this privilege, now accorded under the
Harrison act. Similar apprehension was
expressed by George~W. Ashworth of the
customs Department of the Treasury.
Col. Mutt. chief OF the narcotics field
rorce of the Internal Revenue Bureau,
advocated even more drastic provisions,
saying that much material now confis-
Gated bears the name of reputable
manufacturers of the United States and
Great Britain

Whiskey Runners Have
Headquarters There.

New York prohibition headquarters
was a storm centre of investigation yes
terday, with routine business pushed
aside while Dan J. Chaplin and his staff
dug into the ramifications OF wholesale
violation of the liquor laws. Mr.. Chaplin
admitted he was following up the trail
opened in Chicago. where arrests were
made Monday in conjunction with the
activities of an alleged whiskey ring
operating in Chicago. New York and Jer-
sey City whose profits are said to have
run into millions and whose members
are believed to include Representative
in Congress and other Federal officials.
But no details of the New York investi-
cation were forthcoming.
Charles r. O'Connor. State Prohibi-
tion Director. was in Washington pre-
sumably in connection with the arrests
made last week of women employed in
kis office who are charged with aiding
whiskey runners. 1t was announced
from his Office that a dozen more ques-
tionable permits calling for the release
of $500 cases of liquor had been sent
in by distiliers and wholesalers who
were evidently determined to make no
mistakes.
According to dispatches from Wash
ington last night Mr.. O'Connor con-
ferred with Federal Prohibition Commis-
sioner Kramer and Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue Williams on many
questions of policy. in addition to the
difficulties of his office with forged per-
mits. Mr.. Kramer said there was no
indication of further arrests in the New
York district in connection with recent
frauds.

Special Despatch TO The New YORK HERALD.
LEXINGTON, KY, Jan. with the
thousands of tooacco growers over the
forty-one counties in Kentucky that
produce white hurley in state of re-
volt against the big manufacturers.
the tobacco situation in Kentucky is
in very serious condition tonight.
Following riotous scenes in some
towns to-day, every tobacco market
except one in the white hurley district
Tonight was closed indefinitely, and
a meeting of bankers and leaf pro-
ducers from the entire district has
been called here for next Friday to
Iake UP the question of whether the
bankers will grant loans to the grow
ers If the latter take their tobocco
from the markets. If this should be
done the tobacco would be placed in
a pool in care of the Burley Tobacco
Growers Association or company of
growers themselves, to be held until
prices improve.
The situation is dangerous, with thou
sands of farmers facing heavy losses.
The only place where actual trouble
Ioomed to-day was at Carlisle. where
about 1000 farmers menaced the buy
ers for the manufacturers until cooler
counsel was allowed to prevail. Knives
were drawn and matters were threaten
ing for time.

who was arrested in Chicago with John
Costello. was formerly a detective

partment. and a member of the strong
arm" squad under Commissioner Woods,
according TO Francis ]. Farley. with
whom he was In partnership in a private
detective agency at 1416 Broadway until
about two weeks ago. Mr.. Farley was
found in his office yesterday, waiting
to be raided by prohibition officers. Let
them raid" he said. II have no boot
Logging connections"
Farley said Shea had quit the busi-
ness on December Is. telling his partner
that he was tired of 1t. He produced a
letter from a trust company dated De-
cember 21. attesting the separation of
the firms account So far as he knew,
Mr. Chaplin said last night, Farley's
office had not been raided. nor would
he say whether raid is contemplated.
1T may take some time to run down
the trail that we have started on" he
added.

3 MORE ARRESTED IN
CHICAGO-N. Y. RUM RING
Forged Permits Printed Here
Reported Seized.

Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD.
CHICAGO, Jan 4.-Three more arrests,
increasing the total to fifteen. were made
to-day by Federal prohibition agents in
connection with the New York and Chi
cago whiskey combine which has been
uncovered by Prohibition Enforcement
Director Frank D. Richardson. Edward
Crump. Grant Mayfield and John Hazler
of Chicago were held to the Federal
Grand Jury They are charged with hav-
ing in their possession forged Govern
ment permits for liquor These permits
bore the prohibition commissioners Of
hcial stamp Of Jersey City and New
York.
Mr.. Richardson and United States At
torney Clyne united their forces to-day
10 contend with what they claim to be
the biggest liquor swindle since pro-
hlbition became effective. One of the
Chicago congressman alleged to be
connected with the conspiracy was seen
In the Federal building to-day. He was
instrumental in the securing of bonds
for Crump and Hazler.
This is the most extensive whiskey
conspiracy in the country" said Dis
trict Attorney Clyne. Counterfeit per-
mits for the removal of liquor from
warehouses and for its sale to whole
salers and druggists were made in New
York and Chicago and exchanged be-
tween these places. They were turned
out as fast as a press could print
them.
II understand that the permit, signed
and stamped with the forged signature
of the prohibition director of Chicago
or Ne~ York. was sold at the rate of
S. for each gallon OF whiskey stipulated
upon it. a permit for 1000 gallons
would sell for 5000. The profits were
tremendous. 1t is impossible to esti-
mate the amount of money involved"

BOY STILL MISSING;
BLOOD STAINS DENIED
Chemical Test Disproues The
ory of Only Clue.

New BEDFORD, Mass. Jan. 4.-One
supposed clue to the mystery of the dis
appearance of James f. Collins, Jr., the
boy hunter who has been missing since
December IS. was proved valueless to-
day when a chemist reported that there
were no blood stains on the overalls and
jumper found last Friday in the Plain
Vile woods. Collins was the son of AL
derman Collins.
The police have been working on the
theory that he was killed by one of the
,..oonshine dlstllling gangs that are said
TO infest the detrict and the discovery
Of the clothing apparently stained with
blood near a lonely shack was at first
regarded AS OF great Importance. The
report Of the chemist given to the police
to-day says
The blood analysis Of the garments
which you gave me has been completed
and found TO contain no blood whatso-
ever. The dry spots are yeast fungus
The dark brown or black spots are oil
epots'

Bad situation in Covington.

The farmers are speaking out in open
revolt. but it is not believed any violence
toward buyers will be attempted, not
withstanding the menace at Carlisle to-
day.
Covington also developed a dangerous
situation late to-day, according to word
from there tonight, when hundreds of
farmers gathered at the warehouse,
where an attempt was made to conduct
a sale and demanded that efforts to auc-
tion the crop be stopped. The situation
grew so serious that a Sheriff and
posse Of deputies were sent to the scene.
but no trouble developed.
At Lexington, while hundreds Of
growers were indignant. there was no
threatening expression, the growers
seeming to vent their feelings by de-
manding that this years crop be cut out.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. Jan. 4.-Exciting
scenes were enacted at several Blue
Grass towns to-day when tobacco farm
ers disappointed with low bids for their
leaf tobacco, stopped sales, held mass
meetings and put plans on foot to mar
ket the crop themselves this year.
CHICAGO, Jan. A tobacco exchange
system, modelled largely on the lines of
tho grain exchange system and its prac-
tice Of trading in futures. would go far
TO remedy the unsatisfactory conditions
now existing in the hurley tobacco field.
according to John r. Maun, secretary of
the Chicago Board of Trade.
Before the grain exchange system
was developed grain growers were con-
fronted with much the same conditions
as those in Kentucky to-day" he said
'In time / think the troubles OF the
tobacco growers will compel market
ing organization comparable TO grain
exchanges"

Many Warehouses Suspend.

After the excited crowd had been
Quieted a number Of growers went TO
Paris, Ky, to demand that the market
be closed. That already had been done,
however. other markets followed suit
Eighteen, warehouses in Lexington are
closed About sixty have suspended
over the hurley district. In other cities
no attempt will be made to begin sales
Thousands of farmers are demanding
that the growing of a crop be suspended
this year. believing this action would go
so far towards eXhausting the supplies
held by manufacturers that high prices
would come
The Burley Marketing Company was
organized to-day as a farmers cooper
ative body and will take over all to-
bacco upon which buyers rejected offers.
This leaf will be sold to European and
Japanese buyers, as II is expected these
countries will take it all.
The general opinion prevailing is the
growers will have to stand loss. as to-
bacco has been bringing record prices
for three years.
Mass meetings of farmers were held
this afternoon in various counties and
others will be held tomorrow at which
the demand for a cut out of the crop
will be tested. 1t Is likely. however
that there will be no tobacco produced
in the white hurley belt this year. Some
OF the farmers are stunned by the low
prices, as II means virtual financial
ruin for them. Others take the attitude
that the growers must accept conditions
and wait for tobacco prices to readjust
themselves along the lines of other farm
products.
