DRY LAW W0LATORS
"ENTITLED TO JURY"
Philadelphia U. S. Judge Holds In
junction Necessary in
Each Case.
PHILADELPHIA

PHILADELPHIA, October, 20.--
Judge Charles L. McKeehan OF the
federal district court here today
rendered a decision holding that Con-
gress in adopting the injunctive pro-
visions of the prohibition act did not
intend to destroy the right OF every
citizen charged with a crime to q
trial by jury and make IL mandatory
upon the courts to issue injunctions
in every case where evidence proved
a common nuisance existed"
In enunciating this principle OF law,
Judge McKeehan issued an Injunction
restraining the Bergner and Engel
Brewing Company. Philadelphia, from
further violation of the law In the
manufacture of high powered beer,
but the court did not order the plant
shut down. The court announced that
If the company violated the injunc.
tfon he would order the plant closed.
The reason for not issuing the
closing order, the court explained.
was that a criminal charge which was
filed against the company six months
before the government asked for the
Injunction had not yet been disposed
iof.
It is the constitutional right OF
every defendant to have a trial By
jury, Judge McKeehan pointed out,
and If convicted might be made TO
suffer the loss of property used in
commission of the crime, but the
equity courts have no power To give
a judgment on a criminal case and
Congress did not intend to deprive q
defendant OF his constitutional rights

NEVER MIND,' SAYS
PAPyRUS' OWNER
lrish's Eyes FIN With Tears,
But He Proves Good
Sportsman.
Ry the Associated Press.


LONDON. October 2o.-Ben Irish,
the owner OF Papyrus. took his defeat
calmly, when he learned of Zev's VIC
tory over the Derby winner, but, with
tears in his eyes, when his family
sought to sympathize with him. he
remarked Never mind"
Then he poured out a drink for
himself and the newspaper man who
interviewed him, asking him to drink
to Zev. After recounting the nego-
tiations leading up to the match, Mr..
Irish said:
The conditions were difficult and
had / fully realized them IL may be
that I should not have consented, but
/ was treated with fairness. con-
sideration and courtesy by the Ameri-
can public"
The news of Papyrus' defeat caused
little surprise at Newmarket, the head
quarters of English racing, where the
race was looked on more as a specu-
lation than as sporting event, the
view being entertained that Papyrus
was only an average Derby winner,
while Zev was acknowledged to be an
exceptionally fast horse. There is an
underlying sense of disappointment,
however, that the English horse was
beaten.
Sir Edward Hutton. newspaper pro-
prietor and noted horse owner, said he
had always expected the race would be
a farce.
mo horse has any chance to be in
condition or At to race after he has
been standing on his feet and unable
to take exercise for week." he
said. ITO expect on top of this that
he can race under entirely new con-
ditions and show any sort of form
Is impossible"
Later Sir Edward said: II will pick
and English horse of the same age.
to give Zev fourteen pounds, If he
will come over here and rase under
the same conditions as Papyrus did,
and back that English horse to win
for a thousand sterling"

WANT SPLIT DRILL

Militia Officials Say Method
of Paying National Guard
Promotes Efficiency.

0fficials Of the militia bureau are
preparing to ask Congress to iegalize
the ''spllt-drilT' custom in the Ma.
tional Guard, so that attendance for
armory drill by the guardsmen will
be computed for pay purposes, on the
basis OF the number attending various
company classes arranged by COM
pany commanders
A change in law will be necessary
to sanction the practice, II has been
found. since Controller General Nc
Carl has declined to approve a regu-
lation authorizing the split drill''
Under the law. the controller gen.
eral holds, so per cent of the MEM
bership of any National Guard unit
must be present for drill on the f1xed
night each week, or the unit cannot
receive pay from the federal gov
ernment. In the artillery units of the
guard. however, II las been found
that better progress Is made when
various groups OF specialists, COM
posing the battery membership are
assembled for instruction on different
nights In no case are officers paid
for more than one night of drill.
The ruling by the controller gem
eral makes no charge In the present
pay regulations for the National
Guard. but does make it necessary
that legislative authority be obtained
to inaugurate the split-drill system.
