BALTIMORE, April 14.-Pro-

sharply since the first of the
month that United States Com
missioner j. Frank Supplee is
now holding hearings only two
days a week instead Of five.
Mondays and Thursdays have
been designated as hearing days.
Arraignments are held and bail
set every day except Sunday.
In the first IL days of this
month only 20 cases were pre-
sented before the U. s. Commits
sioner. This is q decline Of 76.1
per cent as compared with the
similar period in 1882 when 90
cases were brought.
Officials attribute the sharp
decline to the ban placed on the

American peo- sen. sHEFfAHD
Pile have experienced any sudden
change of sentiment on the prohi-
bition question.
We believe the masses Of the
people, at heart, still support the
principles involved in national
prohibition.
We do not believe it possible for
the vets to secure ratification by
the necessary three-fourth of the
States in connection with the pro-
posed repeal of the eighteenth
amendment and we will see that
the fight is carried into every
State.
This proposal of unqualified re-
peal, without any safeguard
against the saloon. bellies every
assurance the vets have given us
that they are against the return
Of the saloon.
This alone condemns the move
ment for repeal in advance.
The American people will never
ratify any proposition that brings
back the saloon.

Joint resolution which I offered

Since the adoption Of the Eight

time that either House of Con-

With that concurrence, the peo-
pie will have an opportunity to
express themselves, through con-

ton for repeal.
Sentiment against prohibition
has gradually developed to the
point where hypocrisy and intol-
