poison trials in the annals Of French

a prosperous chemist with an estab-

GIVES NEW LIGHT ON POISON

concerning the qualities of arsenic as
they were then known, was argued
before the court for many days. The
government experts found traces Of
arsenic In Nine. Danval's body which
would amount to one milligram
(.0l549 grain). This it was argued,
proved that arsenic had been admin
lstered with criminal intent. A toxl-
cologist for the defense, however,
maintained that one milligram was
perfectly normal amount Of arsenic to
find in the human body. 1t was point
ed out that the green curtains sur
rounding Nine. Danvals bed had been
cOlored with an arsenlcal dye and con
tanned an ounce of pure arsenic.
NJ. Danyal was sent to the penal
settlement Of New Caledonia He was
living there, comparatively free, with
his family, when, in 1902 the order
came for his release.
The French government toxlcologist
has just issued a new textbook for
consultation at criminal trials in
which it is declared that the presence
of so small a quantity as one milli-
gram Of arsenic in the human body is
negligible and ought not to be taken
as discriminating evidence in a charge
of murder.
1t is on this new ruling that NJ.
Danval appeals.

2 CENTS MORE FOR MILK
IN OCTOBER PREDICTED
Advanced Retail Price Per Quart
Is Seen, Due to Increase Or
dered by Production.

The price of milk is expected to go
up cents per quart in price on Octo-
ber /. it was stated today. At pres
ent the retail price ranges from 12 to
ii cents per quart in different stores.
1t was learned from reliable
source that the farmers o: nearby
Maryland and Virginia. who supply
practically all of the city's milk, have
decided upon a wholesale price of 81
cents per gallon for the balance of
the year.
~ The summer wholesale price, which
will remain in effect until October 1,
is Is cents per gallon, which would
make the increase cents on the gal
Ion to the local dairymen.
While the <dairymen were not GER
tain today what the retail price will
be on a wholesale price of 81 cents
per gallon, they indicated the advance
to the consumer would be at least 2
cents on the quart.
If this prediction proves correct the
retail price per quart will range from
IA to 16 cents.
Milk prices always go up during the
winter months, it was stated. The
new price decided upon by the farm
crs, however. may come down again

Deputy collectors of internal rev.
enue are amused over reports COM

that drys are looking for booze
pipeline" between Baltimore and
the embassies.
That's the biggest joke / ever
heard in my life" said one Of the
deputies. why does an ambas-
sador or attache want TO run
pipe line to Baltimore, or even
preteLd to evade any of the pro-
hibition laws, when all he has to
do is make formal application for
his liquor and get it?"
1t was said at the custom house
that there had been no application
for liquor Withdrawals for the en-
bassies at Washington in three or
four months. Last spring the
Withdrawals by representatives of
foreign countries were rather
heavy.
One withdrawal of ten barrels of
whisky by d certain embassy
caused former Prohibition Director
Dodson so much worry that he at
first made plans to seize and hold
up the liquor. He got orders, ap-,
parently, to take a different course
for the liquor was released and
found its way to Washington.
