TWO LEPERS START
FOR NEW QUARTERS
CentIivre and Young Will
Make Future Homes at
CarviIIe, La.

Willard Centlivre and Charles H.
Young, the lepers who for more than six
months have been wards of the District
health department, have finally been
transferred to the national leporsa rum
at Carviile. La
Assistant Health Officer John L. Nor
rls left Washington with the two men
late Saturday night and is expected to
reach the leprosarium some time TODAY
Officials of the health department re-
Trained from disclosing the details of
now the patients were taken from the
cottage on the eastern branch to the
Louisiana institution. 1t is understood
they went by rail
Health Officer William c. Fowler was
gratlfled today at the departure of
Young and Centlivre. not only because
the men will be better provided for at
the leproSarium, but because he felt
that Washington should not be required
to bear the expense Of maintaining a
leper colony when the inmates did not
belong in the District.
A few weeks ago Cantliyre escaped
from the detention camp on the East
ern branch. and after sauntering
through the city for several hours,
visited the District building in search
of DR.. Fowler. Centlivre was dissa tis-
fled with his abode near the river and
absented himself without leave to ap-
peal to DR.. Fowler for Improvements.
Centlivre was the first leper to come
to Washington. His object in visiting
the District was to ask Congress for a
pension. claiming that he contracted
the dread disease while in the Army.
foungs s presence In the city was dis
covered several months later Accord
ing to his story to the health officer, he
mad visited many states in the Union.

APPELLATE COURT O.K.'S
DENIAL OF MANDAMUS
Upholds Ruling on Application for
D. c. Permit for Public
Dance Hall.

The District Court of Appeals, in a
decision by Chief Justice Smyth, today
affirmed the action of the District Su-
preme Court in refusing a mandamus
to compel the District Commissioners
to issue a permit for a public dance
hall at I08 0 street northwest, known
as Armory Hall
The court sets the test to be ap-
piled by the Commissioners in such
applications. 1t finds that the ques-
tion to be determined is DO the
character of applicant and the nature
of the surroundings show that the
place would likely become the scene
of disorder or other violations of
law if the permit were issued?' The
after a public hear
ing. having determined this fact
against the applicants. Franklin F.
Nash and Eugene K. Russell, the
court will not disturb that finding.
This judgment by the Commission
erS cannot be CaDricious or arbitrary,
the court points out. but there must
be competent evidence to support it.

DRUGGISTS TO PAY
TAXAS V|CTUALERS'
Appellate Court Ruling on Ice
Cream Sold to Be Eaten
on Premises.

Washington druggists must pay a
license tax as "victualers" when they
dispense ice cream and other food to
be eaten on the premises. The Court
of Appeals so held today in an opinion
by Justice Stafford, who sat as a
member of the court in the absence of
Justice Robb.
The appellate court reversed the de-
csion of Judge HardiSon of the Police
court. who quaShtd an information
brought against Paul Pearson for vio-
lating paragraph 10 of the act of July
| /. 1902. The case was brought to test
the right of the District authorities
to collect the tax from the druggists.
The plea was made that the druggists
had been exempt from this levy since
the passage of the act eighteen years
ago.
Cites Arguments for Druggists.
The argument for the druggists. the
opinion of Justice Stafford states, is
based on reading of the statute
which would give no use or purpose
to the words of the statute. where
food, meals or refreshments are
served to transient customers to be
eaten on the premises where sold" if
they did not broaden the words. res
Ia aura mt. oyster houses. etc" for Con-
Sress certainly knew that food or re-
freshments were sold at each one of
these places.
What Congress Meant.
But. says Justice Stafford IF Con-
gross meant to say that any other
place at which food. meals or re-
freshments were served to transient
persons to be eaten on the promises
was to be considered exactly the same
as restaurant, by whatsoever name
ii might be designated then the
words did serve some purpose"
The court holds the druggists SO
dispensing refreshments fall within
the purview of this meaning and are
subject to the tax.

NOT ENTITLED TO SUE.
Mrs. M. E. Winston Not Residen,
Here When She Sought Divorce.

Holding that Mrs. Marie E. Winston
was not a resident of the District of
Columbia when she brought suit for
a. limited divorce from Commander
Hollis r. Winston. United States NAVY.
the District Court of Appeals TODAY
directed the dismissal of the wife's
suit for lack of jurisdiction.
The District Supreme Court had
dismissed the proceedings on the
merits, but Justice Van Orsdel of the
appellate tribunal reversed this de-
cision and directed a dismissal for
want of jurisdiction.
The opinion suggests that Mrs.
Winston must have resided here for
three years after leaving her hus-
band before she would be entitled
to bring suit for a limited divorce.

SAYS BOLL WEEV|L
 HAS NO CHANCE HERE

That the dreaded boil weevil hasn't a chance of being introduced into this country is the opinion of a group of Texans who recently had experi- ence with horticultural inspectors and the vigilance of the state ento- mologist's department.
 Arriving here, the Texans were stripped of a good bit of their. pos sessions, including among other items the rag dolls of the two kiddies in the party. The dolls were found to be stuffed with cotton seed. and the youngsters were so distressed that D. C. Mote, state entomologist. had heart and took up collection and bought the best-looking dolls to be found in down town shops, toys that were free from pests.
 Mattresses stuffed with. cotton seed and trash were destroyed. as were pillows, the "innards'' of which were alive with weevils.
 Souvenirs from Dixie land met with like fate. The inspectors found that the glassware, china and even the food brought in from Texas was packed with cotton seed, which might have brought in an army of insects had it not been for the close supervision of the state department having the inspection in charge.

NEW YORK, Nov. 4-Trading in bonds again overshadowed dealings in all other securities on the stock ex- change today. Various domestic and foreign issues floated during the war registered the highest prices for a year or more.
 Liberty bonds and Victory notes continued to move forward under the impetus given the investment demand by nation wide indications of easier credit conditions. Most of the Lib erty series at their new higher rec ords, showed extreme gains of from 10 to 100 points. Victory .3A's were at their maximum for a year and Victory 4s4's duplicated yesterdays record quotation of par.
 Among the foreign bonds. many of which suffered acute depression while the war was in an uncertain stage, today's strength was the most marked in French government eighths and Belgium government 71a's these gaining 4 and 3 points respec- lively. Other European bonds, in- cluding many municipal issues dis played notable strength and Chilean government eighths sold at premium over yesterdays subscription price.
 Railroad bonds and similar issues of domestic companies were only mod erateIy better, reflecting the uncertain tone of the stock market. Total sales par value, s22.275.O0O. Dealings in stocks were altogether governed by technical conditions. Issues in which the short interest was believed to be dominant moved hesitatingly, but be- came heavy in the final hour when call money rose from to 1-5 per cent. Sales amounted to 5000 shares.
 The foreign exchanges were fea- tured by another slump in German marks to AS cents and weakness in Greek and Central European remit tances. British. French and Italian bills were firm. improvement in ster- ling being associated with latest as- poets of the Irish situation.

CHICAGO No 2. 4-Wheat scored something of an upturn today after a fresh decline at the outset. An accumulation of overnight selling or- ders caused the initial weakness, which carried the December delivery down to 9S cen,s bushel. Estf- mates. however. that 10000, 900 bush els to 50,000.000 bushels had been sold to the seaboard and were still to be shipped led to a rally. being taken as an indication that the United States has sold all of it's exportable surplus. Opening quotations, which varied from unchanged figures to IF c lower. with December at 9S to 99, and May at s1.O3h to s1.03%. were followed by Q rise all around to above yesterdays finish.
 Corn and oats developed independ- ent firmness. Corn opened un- changed to A cent higher. May at 50& to 503s. and after a slight sag made a moderate general ascent.
 Oats stated 1s cent off to a like advance, May 35ss to 35z. and then eased a little, but soon hardened with corn.
 Provisions reflected firmness in the hog market.

puN,s REPORT

NEW YORK. Nov. 4-Dun's. to- morrow will say:
 Response to the constructive forces in economic situation does not come quickly. but evidence of revival null tiply. The recovery would be more rapid if fewer restraints were pres ent, yet the gain is fairly steady and there is promise of it's continuance. A further lowering of money rates this week, reflecting the strength ened banking position. is an encour- aging factor, and a lessening of price unsettlement makes for more confi- dent operations in different quarters. While all statistical barometers do not reveal the improvement in busi- ness, records of production in sever al basic industries are distinctly bet ter, and a larger employment of man. ufacturing capacity tends to reduce the volume of idle labor. The latter is still of such proportions as to e1. ert a potent influence on the public purchasing power. but retail distrib- ution is somewaht stimulated as win ter approaches, and offerings of goods at prices satisfactory to con- sumers are being absorbed with con- siderable freedom.
