HOMES EXEMPTED
IN LIQUOR SEARCH
Warrants Necessary, Con-
ferees on Anti-Beer
Measure Agree.
SENATE LIKELY OBSTACLE
Leaders Say Hope for Acceptance
Without Stanley Amendment
Is in Vain.
SENATE LIKELY OBSTACLE

The conference report on the anti
beer bill. definitely agreed on yester-
day and presented to the Senate and
also to the House, exempts a mans
home from search without warrant
obtained in due course of law, but
requires no warrant to search other
property provided an officer acts
without malice and has reasonable
cause to suspect the presence of
liquor.
Along with the presentation Of the
report word reached the Senate that
prohibition leaders of the House had
declared there would be no recess of
Congress until the measure had been
finally enacted. Senate leaders, on
the other hand. announced that it was
hopeless to expect Senate acceptance
in view of the rejection by the con-
ferees of the Stanley amendment,
passed unanimously. and designed to
protect the home and other property
from indiscriminate search through
imposition of heavy penalties.
Two Fail to Sign.
Senator Ashurst, democrat. Arizona,
who ''bolted" the conference early in
the week. and Representative Dyer,
republican. Missouri. failed to sign
the report 1t was approved. how
ever. by Senators Sterling and Nelson.
republicans and Representative VOL
stead. republican, and Summers, Texas,
democrat.
The only point at issue in final de-
libera tions Of the managers was the
searching provision. In reaching a
compromise both the Senate and
House amendments on the subjects
were discarded.
Agree on This Section.
In their place the conferees adopted
the following section:
Section 6. That any officer, agent
or employe of the United States en-
gagged in the enforcement Of this act
(to the national prohibition act) or any
other law of the United States, who
shall search any private dwelling az
defined in the national prohibition
act. and occupied as such dwelling
without a warrant directing such
search. or who while so engaged
shall, without search warrant. mali.
ciously and without reasonable cause
search and other building or property
sha IL be guilty of a misdemeanor, and
upon conviction thereof. shall be fined
for, a first offense not more than

one year, or both such fine and i'm.

HIGH WEEDS MUST
co, OYSTER RULES
Police May Aid to Enforce Old
Law Against UnsightIy
Vacant Lots.

Having received numerous COM
plants recently of high and insight
ly weeds being allowed to remain on
vacant lots throughout the city. Com
missioner Oyster took steps yesterday
to resurrect an old act of Congress
making this violation Of law.
The Commissioner announced that
he would confer with Mai. Gessford-
superintendent of police, tomorrow
relative to enforcement of this act.
The law states that it shall be un-
lawful for the owner or agent of any
vacant land in the densely populated
sections of the city to permit weeds
to grow more than four inches in
height. 1t provides that notice shall
be- served upon the owner of a lot
where weeds exist higher than four
inches, giving him seven days in
which to cut them down. Failure
to comply with the notice makes the
owner subject to fine for each day
the weeds remain after the notice
period has elapsed. q,
1t further authorizes the Commits
sioners to remove the. weeds where
the owner falls to do SO and assess
the cost against the property. 1t is
understood. however, that there Is no
fund available with which to carry
out that provision of the law.
Health Officer Fowler has asked. in
his annual estimates in past years.
for an appropriation to enforce the
anti-weed law. but the appropriation
has never been made. The health de-
partment is not able. with its limited
force of inspectors, to see that the
law is obeyed on every vacant lot in
the thickly populated part Of the
city. -.
Whenever specific complaint is
made, however, Of the existence OF
high weeds on a certain lot, the health
Office has endeavored; to enforce the
anti-weed law.
DR.. Fowler said last night that high
weeds Of a certain species are un-
doubtedly q source Of annoyance al
this time Of year to persons who
are subject to hay Fever. Further.
more, he said, a lot covered with high
weeds easily becomes . dumping
srbund for refuse.

MARINES RUSH TO PANAMA;
LEAVE QUANTICO SECRETLY
Battalion at War Strength Hurriedly
Entrains to Go Aboard Warship.
May Enforce Boundary Award.

One battalion Of United Ststes
marines at war strength and with
full field equipment entrained at
the big Marine Corps base at
Quantico. Va, at o'clock last
night for Panama. They are sched-
uled to board the U. 8. battleship
Pennsylvania today at Philadel-
phia. which, 1t was learned last
night. Is under orders to rush them
to Panama.
The battalion was hurriedly as
sembled last night following the
evening meal. and the men were in
structed to make immediate prepa-
rations for field service. When the
special trai.. which carried them to
Philadelphia pulled on the Quantico
siding and the loading of the devil
dogs began there was much con-
sternation among the wives and
relatives Of the men at such
hurried departure. No explana-
tions were given and the departure
was veiled In secrecy.
While the marines and their rela-
tives did not know for what pur-
pose they were being ordered away.
they did know that they went pre-
pared for foreign field service, and
those who know the corps surmised
that trouble was brewing.
Officers at the post were reticent
about the troop movement. and re-
ferred all inquirers to the Navy
Department. Maj. Gen. Lejeune.
commandant Of the Marine Corps.
also declined to comment on the
movement, but late last night 1t
was officially confirmed at the Navy
Department that the rush move
ment had been ordered. Officials
referred requests for explana tion to
the State Department, saying that
the troops were being sent at the
request Of that branch Of the gov
ernment.
The Quantico marine base. it was
learned. is the only base affected
at this time. and officials declined
to say whether further edetacf-
ments would be ordered, but in
timated that they would act inn
mediately upon any further re-
quests from the State Department.
There we're no Indications last
night as to the purpose of the Navy

the White boundary award. a dis
pute in which the United States has
taken more the part Of a guaran-
tor of the awards validity. than
that of a disinterested observer or
mediator
There have been hints in notes
sent to Panama by the State De-
partment that unless that repub-
lie abided by the award the United
States would be forced to take
steps looking toward a final settle
ment. and the State Department
has on more than one occasion in
formed Panama that the White
award was valid.
There is nothing now to show
that the State Department has de-
cided to force Panama's imme ediate
acceptance Of the White award.
But II such was the decision. it is
conceded that, the State Depart
ments request for an immediate
settlement would have to be back
ed up by force. Panama's attitude
to date makes other courses i'm
possible.
In a nutshell the situation to-
day is this: When Costa Rica.
few months ago, invaded the terri
tory on the Pacific coast under dis
pute and Panama resisted the in
vasion. one Of the first acts of Sec
retary Hughes after assuming Of
fee was to notify Panama and
Costa Rica that hostilities must
cease and an agreement be reached
between the republics. This note
was followed by another. which
informed Panama that the White
award remained valid. and con-
tained what has been interpreted
as a threat by this government,
that its provisions must be COM
piled with by Panama.
Panama, however, has refused
to interpret the State Depart
ment's attitude as indicating the
United States means to enforce the
White award. She has submitted
a number of counter propositions
to Costa Rica, through the State
Department, looking to a settle
ment of the award. Costa Rica
has refused to entertain. any Of
them.
Costa Rica's latest step was to
ask Chief Justice Taft to appoint
the commission of engineers who.
