Norfolk, Va., Dec. 15—The board of control today investigated charges made by Rear Admiral Berry against Patrolmen Webb and Holloinan, the rdmiral accusing the policemen of N treating sailors and detaining them illegally. The sailors mentioned in the specific complaints were Seamen Rudolph Leuscher, Charles P. Bilby, and J. D. Kellam. Kellam was ar rested on the charge of unlawful shooting and was acquitted after overstaying his liberty in jail, but Leuscher'and Bilby were convicted by the civil courts on the charge of disorderly conduct and served sen tences in jail in default of their fines. The police are of the opinion that the sailors made the charges upon which Admiral Berry's complaint is 1 ased in order to escape punishment l'or overstaying their liberty, as no evidence of cruel treatment on the l.art of the police was introduced.

SCHNAPPS has been advertised in this paper so that every chevver has had an opportunity to get acquainted with the facts and know that drugs are not used to produce the cheering quality found in the famous Piedmont country flue-cured tobaccos, and that SCHNAPPS is what he ought to chew. Still there are chewers who accept other and cheaper tobaccos that do not give the same pleasure. MAKE DENATURED ALCOHOL. Internal Revenue Department Swamp ed With Letters of Inquiry About Business. Washington. D. C., Dec. 14. —The iuternal revenue department is be ing swamped with letters of inquiry i:om all parts of the country in re gard to the manufacture of denatur ed alcohol, the new law relating to which is to become effective the first of the year. From the letters it is evident that many farmers and oth-1 ors are of the mistaken opinion that the manufacture of the alcohol will be" a simple matter and that great profits are to be from the business. 3 The internal revenue commissioner j ccsires to have i't understood that ' this is a mistaken idea. In the 1 opinion of the department it will be ( impossible . for the farmer, or for even an association of small farmers, , to engage pjofitablv in the manufac ture of denatured alcohol. In the ( first place it is absolutely obligatory ( for the makers of the product to , own not alone distillery machinery, , which is costly if the product is to ( be made on a large scale, but it is , recessary, under the lav/, for the , manufacturer of denatured alcohol i to have one bonded warehouse upon j; the premises for the storage of na-;, tural spirits as are first dis-, tilled and another bonded warehouse j i i.djoining the first for the denatur ing or poisoning of the tax-free alco- bol. The changing of natural spirits l into denatured spirits is to be j •vatched by the government just as jealously as the production of the original alcohol or the manufacture of whiskey by the rectifiers. j, BINGHAM AGAINST COURTS By Nine Gods of War, He Will Run His Department. New York, Dec. 15. —"Who is run- j ning the police department, the courts or me?" asked Police Commissioner Bingham this afternoon. "If the courts are to handle the de- j partment, then I will sit still and let j them do it. But, by the nine gods of j war, I will not appoint as inspector any i of these captains v/hom the courts, seem anxious to see promoted. "Neither will I give any reasons, in: court or elsewhere, for my refusal to j appoint these men. I want the inspec-j tors to be commanders and to have i brains. "When I think what the police de- j partment could be made —the wonder j of the world —it makes me weary." I These remarks were called forth by j the announcement that papers were j being prepared in" a mandamus pro-' ceeding to compel the commissioner j to appoint eligible captains to inspec torships.
