Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 18.-Dr. Sao-
Ke Alfred SEE, Chinese Minister to
the United States, sailed on the CO.
lumbus today for Bremen. whence he
will go to Geneva to attend interna-
tional conferences for the curtail-
ment of production and manufacture
of narcotic drugs.
THE purpose OF these conferences"
the minister said, lis to obtain by
concerted action Of the powers more
satisfactory results under the agree
ment signed at The Hague in 1912
for the regulation Of the drug traffic.
The evils sought to be remedied are
the improper use Of opium and its
derivatives. Much opium is being
produced in British East India, and
what is not used is exported. Much
of it is smuggled into the Far East.
In Persia and Turkey a great deal Of
heroin and morphine is manufac-
tured, and this. too, is smuggled into
the Far East. In 1907 the Chinese
government began it's fight against
the opium traffic, and In 1917 had the
traffic virtually snufred out. Since
then disturbed political conditions
have prevented the government from
curbing the growing OF the poppy.
This setback is temporary and will
be corrected when normal conditions
come again to China"
The minister was accompanied by
his political adviser, Prof w. w. Will
loughby Of Johns Hopkins University.
The Geneva narcotic conference will
open November 3. All the nations Of
Eastern Europe will be represented
and the machinery started to restrict
the manufacture Of narcotics to le-
gitimate uses and purposes. All the
countries of the world have been in
vited to send delegates.

TRAINS ARE WATCHED
FOR FUGITIVE LEPER
Washington Detectives and Uni
formed Policemen on Duty to Halt
Another Visitor From Carville.

Police were attempting last night
to prevent another leper from comm g
into the city without official attend
ance.
At the Union Station detectives and
uniform policemen. well. coached in
the details of description of Charles
H. Young, 81. who escaped from the
Government leprosarium at Carville,
La, Thursday night, and started for
Washington, kept keen eyes on all in
coming trains from the South
throughout the evening. At a late
hour last night there had been no
trace of Young reported.
Willard Centilevre. leper, who came
here from the same institution last
week, is on his way back. Another
leper, a Filipino, discovered in the
Naval Academy, is accompanying
Centilevre.
Centilevre came here to protest
against conditions at the leprosarium,
and gave officials Of the public health
service an account Of conditions,
which led them to believe that num-
Der of inmates had banded together
and sent Centilevre to protest against
alleged plans of this same Young to
have nuns removed as nurses at the
colony. 1t is believed, therefore, that
Young is coming here to put forth his
claims on the other side of the propo-
sition.
