Mr. Knott suggests the city provide some
other Jail for erring husbands and other
offenders against the civil law. The
Tombs is out of the question. he states,
because the law provides that a civil
prisoner must not be incarcerated with
criminal offenders. West Side Prison,
the Sheriff feels. would be an ideal home
for the celebrated club
Sheriff Knott argues that il costs the
city Sal, 900 a year TO house an aver
age OF 175 prisoners in the Jail At
the present time there are about twelve
inmates, which is about the usual num-
ber. The enforced visitors stay for
varied periods. some for only a day or
two, others from three to six months,
and an occasional hard shelled alimony
dodger spends year within the walls
The land and building are assessed for
$500, 900. from which. of course, the city
obtains no revenue.
At any rate, the Jail is not what II
used TO be. A recently enacted law
robbed It OF the romance which had sur
rounded IL for years. This measure
makes it possible TO Jail a delinquent
alimoner again and again If he does not
keep up his payments. The result has
been that the tribute paying ex-husbands
have found II easier TO pay or else leave
the Jurisdiction OF tho State courts.

the special prosecutors staff would talk

The inquiry into sewer contracts IN
Queens county, which consumed much
of Mr.. Whitman's time on Saturday, is
said to be coming to a head 1t is prob
able that some definite announcement
will be made either to-day or to-mor-
row. II also is believed that the ar
raignment this afternoon in the WASH

gave his name as Thomas OBrien when
ne was arrested week ago on charge
of bringing stolen automobile into
the S.ate will be followed by interest
ing disclosures concerning police ofti-
cials.

ticularly interested in ascertaining the
manner in which financial aid seems to
spring UP for persons they happen to
arrest or to question as witnesses, and
In finding out the reason why many

Tells DR.. Simon His Crusade

Buy Cocaine.
GOING TO AN INSTITUTION
Narcotic Division Chief Is the
Guest of Hip Sing Tong in
Pell st. DelmOnico's.
GOING TO AN INSTITUTION

DR. Carleton Simon. Special Deputy
Police Commissioner in charge of the
narcotic division, was told yesterday
that his campaign against sellers OF
drugs had been so successful that II is
very difficult for addicts TO obtain their
usual supplies and that the venders are
running to cover and deserting their
usual haunts. This information was
given to the Commissioner by girl
22 years old, who has been an addict for
about six months, but who has found II
so difficult recently to obtain cocaine IN
sufficient quantities TO satisfy her crav-
ing that she asked the Police Depart
ment to commit her to an institution tor
treatment
This girl, whose name is withheld by
Dr.. Simon because OF her family. SAID
she formed the habit when she used
cocaine for a toothache. The drug took
such a hold upon her. she said. that
she left her home and has not seen heT
parents since. She has been requiring
about an eighth of an ounce day, Tor
which she has been compelled TO pay
the drug sellers from SO to SIT. un-
less she can obtain this quantity OF
cocaine every twenty-tour hours she suf-
fers torture.
''The drug vendors sell to everybody
said the girl, children and all. know
of one man who has taught his thirteen
year-old son to use heroin, and who
now has the boy selling for him and
teaching other boys to use II. Some
of the venders make business of sell
ing to boys alone. They will teach
schoolboy to use a drug. and at first
sell it to him for and 10 cents. Later.
as the drug becomes more necessary,
they raise the price, and by the time
the boy has become a confirmed addict
and must have drugs or undergo great
suffering, the vender has him stealing
from his parents and doing everything
in the world to get money. There Is
nothing that an addict viii not do to
obtain drugs"
The girl told DR.. Simon that she had
little trouble in obtaining cocaine until a
few weeks ago, when the department be-
gan its campaign against the venders,
but since then it has been very difficult
She said her observations have convinced
her that there are at least 100000 drug
addicts In New York city.
Dr. Simon was the principal speaker
last night at dinner given by the Hip
Sing Tong at the Chinese Delmonico' s

HETTRICK DEFENCE
MAYLAS7 ALL WEEK
Dictatorship in Plumbing
Work to Be Denied With
Claim of Lack of Control.

The schemes OF John T. Hettrick,
which have been attacked before tn
Lockwood committee and in several
court proceedings, will be vigorously
defended to-day when the trial of the
lawyer and his three codefendants, two
of whom are labor union officials. is
resumed before Supreme Court Justice
John v. McAvoy.
In general it is known, the argu-
ment which Hettricks counsel and at
torneys for the other defendants will
put forward in asking the aquittal OF
their clients from the coercion charge,
will be that his main object was to
better conditions In the building trades,
rather than to establish himself In the
role of dictator, as has been charged.
1t will be contended that he did not
cause contractors to increase their bids
excepting in cases where it appeared
they had overlooked important features
in making out their estimates.
To attack the charge that they DOM
mated the market In plumbing materials,
the defendants counsel will contend
that all of the master plumbers repre-
sented in Hettrick's code of practice"
handled but small percentage of the
work In this city, and that more than
90 per cent. of the master plumbers
were not members Of their organiza-
ton.
The defence will be handled by Robert
II. Elder. counsel to Hettrick; William
j. Fallon, counsel to William j. Doran I;
Martin Conboy. counsel to Herbert
Smith. and Nathaniel Cohen. counsel to
william II. Chapman. Both Hettrick
and Smith are expected to take the wit
ness stand. The defence probably will
continue it's side of the case throughout
the week.
Walter Drew. counsel to the National
Erectors Association. the big steel COM
bine, said yesterday that Capt. Robert
