THE ANTI BEER LAW.

Washington, Nov. 18th: BY Sc votes
against 22 the Senate today adopted the
report of the commission of the Anti
Beer Law. This law will meantime be
sent tC the President for his signature.
Twelve republicans and ten democrats
voted against the bill. This new law
will abolish the rulings established by
former attorney general Palmer, who
two days before giving up his position
had informed the prohibition agents that
there was nothing in the VoIstead act to
prevent doctors ordering beer or light
wines for their patients.
The new law limits to one hundred by
periods of three months, the prescrip-
tons of doctors regarding alcoholic
drinks, and limits a prescription for
whiskey or wine to half a pint O. alcohol
for ten days.
The laws forbids the importation of al
coholic drinks, until the existing stocks
in the United States will not be sufficient
to provide for the needs. The law gives
to the courts of Hawaii and the Virgin
Islands the right of jurisdiction to put in
vigor the law against prohibition.
1t equally provides that prohibition
agents who ''maliciously" make persecu-
lions in houses without warrants are
punishable with q fine of $40. 600. 90 and
one year Imprisonment for a second in
fraction of the aW.-COurYjer deS Etats
