 HIM TO BURGLARIES
New York Crook Tells Police Cabh- rets Are to Blame For Ills
 Downfall.

New York, March 26,-The lure of cabarets was given today by stan lev Wilson, dapper youth, as the cause of his committing more than 60 burglaries in apartment houses in this city. He was arrested last night in Jamaica as he was carrying brief case which the police said he used for the double purpose of giv- ing the impression he was student and to hold stolen articles.
 Wilson said he came here six months ago from Toronto. where the police said, he admitted serving two years for burglary, He told the po- lice that upon his arrival here he went to work as a clerk at s22 a week and lived with his father in Brooklyn. The lure of the cabarets proved irresistible, however and he resorted to burglaries to obtain funds the police quoted him as say ing,
 A large quantity of stolen jewelry was stored in a bank vault in this city. Wilson told the police, while some of the jewelry and most of the silver he obtained was seM to smelting plant in Toledo, o. to be melted.

BIRTH RATE DECLINES
Continual Falling Of in Birth in France is Causing Government Some Anxiety.

Paris, March 26. The French birth rate continues to decline, &C., cordingsto the vital statistics for last year, just completed. The births numbered 752,10l and the deaths 679,SS5, The excess of births over deaths being 72,216, as compared with 95,000 for the preceding year
 Dr. Variot, authority on vital statistics, remarks that, but for the population of the recovered province of Alsace Lorraine where large famf- lies are still usual, the situation would be much worse.
 According to figures gathered by him, the number of births steadily l increased in France from the begin ming of the nineteenth century and reached their peak during the sec ond empire, with over 1,oO0,oo0 annually. After the war of 1860 they began to drop.
 Thus, in 1876 there were 967,OOo births: in 1886, 9o7.00o; in 1890 S67,o0O, and in 1907, 774,o00.
 The doctor observes that the birth rate in Germany has begun to fall but that the excess of births over deaths still amounts to Soo,0oO.

DRY OFFICIALS

Fail to Get Wrought Up Over
 Wisconsin Admissions

Washington, March 26.-The pub lie admission that two Wisconsin state senators have made stronger wine than is permitted by law has failed to get rise from the prohi- bition bureau. .,
 Commissioner Haynes said today he had ordered no investigation but assumed that if inquiry was war ranted, 1t would be made by the pro- hibition forces at Madison where the statements of the two senators were made yesterday at a senate hearing ! The challenge of two Wisconsin legislators Is similar to one present. ed a year ago by Representative Hill of Maryland, one of the wet leaders in congress, who announced he was making home brew with greater al- coholic content that the maximum fixed by law, and asked prohibition officials what they proposed to do about it. They secured an indict- menL dsulllSb llllLl bbL NHSh 'H~

 At that time Commissioner Haynes said he had no doubt the verdict would have been exactly the oppo-
 site in other parts of the country and that no change would be made in the enforcement regulations. Prohibition officials generally,
 however, regard the home brew sit
 uation as one of the least of their
 troubles, and a similar opinion was
 voiced today in a statement by the
 Methodist board of temperance, pro
 hibition and public morals.
 While a great many foreigners t still make raisin wine and some peo- } ple still attempt to make beer in the kitchen, this problem has nearly 3 solved itself" said the board Home g crew simply was not success. It 1' f not today considerable factor IT. = the situation"
