WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 90
P)-The program for prohibition en-
forcemcnt being developed by Assistant
Secretary Andrews of the treasury,
has reached the stage where a pro-
nouncement of q new federal policy

will delineate the work which the fed
eral government will attempt to do and
will emphasize that part of enforce
ment to be left entirely to state and
local authorities.
Mr.. Andrews as yet has nothing to
say respecting his plans except in
the general way that he believes the
chief function of the federal govern
ment is stoppagc of the source of the
bootleg trade. In this connection it
was disclosed today that the prohlbi-
ton field marshal had ordered dismiss
sal Of a prohibition agent attached to
the New Orleans administrator office,
for spending time and money" in
pursuing, searching and later arresting
a woman motorist when he found she
carried "a pint flask, perhaps a third
full"
As a result of the agents action.
which Mr.. Andrews regards as having
rendered the federal law Obnoxious
and cheap" the assistant secretary has
informed all administrators and their
deputies of details of the case.

IN DEATH Of WIFE
BY Universal Service.

CHICAGO, Sept. 22-CP)-Acting on
information that he was seen leaving
the restaurant in which his wife was
burned, the authorities have rear
rested Ted Maurinus jacobson.
Mrs. Jacobson's body was found
floating in Lake Michigan Saturday
morning, the back and arms burned.
For a time the authorities held to the
theory that Mrs. Jacobson had been
the victim of torture Staying and
been drowned. When it was learned
that she was seen running from the
burning restaurant toward the lake,
the authorities sifted the theory that
she was injured in an attempt to burn
her restaurant and sought to extin-
guish the flames by leaping into the
lake.
jacobson declared. too. that he be-
lieved his wife had taken her life.
Later he demanded an investigation
of the death along the lines of tor
ture Staying.

of the late H. 4. Tabor, former United
States senator from Colorado, was
murdered when she died from scalds

tinued today to search for man
known only as Bill" who recently
had been known as her husband.
They continued TO hold Jack Reid,
former saloonkeeper and real estate
man, whose picture with a message
scrawlcd on the back Of it was found
in Miss Tabor's apartment. If I am
killed. arrest this man, for he will be-
directly or indirectly responsible for
my death" said the note.
Neighbors heard Miss Tabor scream
and found her with her back and legs
severely scalded. She died within Il
few minutes.
DIR. J.. Guilliver Walton. who had
treated the young woman three years,
told the authorities her condition was
such that any severe shock might have
caused her death and said she was ad-
dictcd to the excessive use of liquor
and drugs.
At the end, the former queen of the
miners" rs she was known when her
father was worth millions of dollars

scorned as destitute of tenderness
would not see her buried in pauper's
