"DRY" RUSSIA IS
LITERAL REALITY
Nation, Almost Overnight,
Forced to Abandon Daily
Consumpton of Vodka.
PEASANTS MUCH CHANGED
Millions of People. Already Ixtok
Jjike Different Race, and Order
and Thrirt Begin to Appear
In Homes of Poor.
PETROGRAD, Nov. 18.--There is pro
hibition In Russia today, prohibition
which means that not a drop of vodka,
whisky, brandy, Bin or any other
strong liquor is obtainable from one
end to the other in a territory popu
lated by 150.000.000 people, and cover
ing one-sixth of the habitable globe.
The story of how strong: drink has
Deen utterly banished from the Russian
empire was related to the Associated
Press by Michael Demltrovltch Tchell
pheff, the man directly responsible for
rutting: an end to Russia's vice, the
vodka habit.
Prohibition I Literal.
"Tt should be said In the beginning:
that the word prohibition in Russia
must be taken literally. Its use does
not imply a partially successful at
tempt to curtail the consumption of
liquor, resulting- in drinking in secret
places, the abuse of medical licenses
and the general evasion and subter
fuge. "It means that a vast population
who consumed $1,000,000,000 worth of
vodka a year, whose ordinary condi
tion has been described by the Rus
sians themselves as ranging upward
from a slight degree of stimulation, has
been lifted almost in one day from a
drunken Inertness to sobriety. The na
tion has been compelled, virtually over
uis-bt. to abandon Its enormous daily
consumption of vodka, a liquor that is
almost pure alcohol, and became ab
stemious to the extent of letting no
liquor pass its Hpb.
Dnukrannn lias Vanished.
"On that day when the mobilization
of the Russian army began special
policemen visited every public place
where vodka is sold, locked up the sup
ply of the liquor, and placed on the
shop the imperial seal. Since the man
ufacture and sale of vodka is a gov
ernment monopoly in Russia, it is not
a difficult thing to enforce prohibition.
From the day this step was taken
drunkenness vanished In Russia. The
results are seen at once in the peasan
try. Already they are beginning to look
like a different race. The marks of
suffering, the pinched looks of illness
and improper nourishment have tone
from their faces. There has been also
a remarkable change in the appearance
of their clothing. Their clothes are
gleaner, and both the men and women
appear more neatly and better dressed.
Order and Thrift Appear.
"The destitute character of the homes
of the poor has been replaced with
something like order and thrift. In
Petrograd and Moscow the effect of
these improved conditions is fairly
startling. On. holidays in these two
cities inebriates always filled the po
lice stations, and often they lay about
on the sidewalks and even in the
street. Things are so different today
that unattended womsn may now pass
at night through portions of the cities
where it was formerly dangerous even
for men. Minor crimes and misde
meanors have almost vanished."
This miracle has been virtually ac
complished by one man. He is Michael
I. Tchelisheff, a peasant by birth, or
iginally a housepainter by profession,
than Mayor of the City of Samara, and
cow a millionaire.
Book Starts Train of Thought.
Speaking of what he had accom
plished .for the cause of sobriety in
Russia, Mr. Tchelisheff said:
"I was reared in a small Russian
village. There were no schools or hos
pitals or any of the improvements we
are accustomed to in civilized com
munities. I picked up an education
from old newspapers and stray books.
One day I chanced n a book in the
hands of a moujik, which treated of
the harmfulness of alcohol. I was so
Impressed with this, knowing that
everybody drank vodka, that I asked
the first physician I met if the state
ment were true. He said yes. Men
drank it, he explained, because momen
tarily it gave them a sensation of
pleasant dizziness. From that time 1
decided to take every opportunity to
discover more about the use of vodka.
"At the end of the "80s there came
famine in Russia, followed by agrarian
troubles. I saw a crowd of peasants
demand from a local landlord all the
grain and foodstuffs in his granary.
This puzzled me; I could not understand
tow honest men were indulging in what
seemed to be highway robbery. I noted
at the time that every man who was
taking part in this incident was a
drinking man, while their fellow-villagers
who were abstemious had suf
ficient provisions in their own homes.!
Thus It was that I observed the indus
trial effects of vodka drinking.
Cltr"" Money Is Refused.
At Samara I decided-to do more than
passively disapprove of vodka. At this
time I was an alderman and many of
the tenants living in my houses were
working men. One night a drunken
father in one of my houses killed his
wife. This incident made such a ter
rible impression on me that I decided
to fight vodka with all my strength.
"On the supposition that tbe gov
ernment was selling vodka for the reve
nue, I calculated the revenue received
from its consumption in Samara. I
then introduced a bill in the City Coun
cil providing that the city . give this
sum of money to the imperial treasury,
requesting at the sfeme time that the
sale of Vodka be prohibited. This bill
passed and the money was appropri
ated. It was offered to the govern
ment, but the SDTernraSit promptly re
fused it.
"It then dawned upon me that Rus
sian bureaucracy did not want the peo
ple to become sober for the reason that
it was easier to rule autocratically a
drunken mob than a sober people.
"This was seven years ago. Later 1
was elected Mayor of Samara, capital
of the Volga district, a district of a
auarter of a million inhabitants. Sub
sequently to holding to this office I was
elected to the Duma on my anti-vodka
platform.
Poison Labrl Proposed.
"In the Duma I proposed a bill per
mitting the inhabitants of any town to
close the local vodka shops and pro
viding also that every bottle of vodka
should bear a label with the word
'Poison.' At my request the wording
or tnis label, in which the evils of
vodka were set forth, was done by the
late Count Leo Tolstoy. This bill
passed the Duma and went to the Im
perial Council, where it was amended
and finally tabled.
"I then begged an audience of Em
peror Nicholas. He received me with
great kindness In his castle in the
Crimea, not far from the scene of the
recent Turkish bombardment. He lis
tened to me patiently. . He was im
pressed with my recital that most of
the revolutionary and socialist excesses
were committed by drunkards and that
the Sveaborg, Kronstadt and Sebastopol
navy revolts and the Petrograd and
other mutinous military movements
were caused by inebrieties. Having
heard me out, his majesty promised at
once to speak to his Minister of Fi
nance concerning the prohibition of
vodka.
Caar Impressed by Observations.
"Disappointed at not having been
able to get through a government bill
regulating this evil, I had abandoned
my seat in the duma. It was evident
that the bureaucracy has been able to
obstruct the measure. Minister of Fi
nance KokovsotT regarded it as a dan
gerous innovation, depriving the gov
ernment of 1,000,000,000 rubles (J500,
000.000) yearly without any method of
replacing this revenue.
"While I lobbied in Petrograd the
Emperor visited the country around
Moscow, and saw the havoc of vodka.
He then dismissed Kokovsoft and ap
pointed the present Minister of Finance,
Bark.
"Mobilization precipitated the anti
vodka measure. The Grand Duke, re
membering the disorganization due to
drunkenness during the mobilization in
1904, ordered the prohibition of all
drinks, except in clubs and first-class
restaurants. This order enforced for
one month showed the Russian author
ities the value of abstention. In spite
of the general depression caused by the
war the paralysis of business, the
closing, of factories, and the Interrup
tion of railroad traffic the people felt
no privations. Savings banks showed
an Increase in deposits over the pre
ceding month and over the' correspond
ing month of the preceding year. At
the same time there was a boom in the
sale of meats, .groceries, clothing, dry
goods and house furnishings.
Honey Spent for Necessities.
"The 30.000,000 rubles a day that had
been paid for vodka were now being
spent for the necessities of life. The
average working week increased from
three and four days to six, the numer
ous holidays of the drinker having been
eliminated. The working day also be
came longer and the efficiency of the
worker was perhaps doubled. Women
and children who were seldom without
marks showing the physical violence of
the husband and father suddenly found
themselves in an undreamed-of para
dise. There were no blows, no Insults
and no rough treatment. There was
bread on the table, milk for the babies
and a fire in the kitchen.
"I dreaded to seize this occasion for'
a press campaign, so far as this is a
possible thing, in Russia. Instead, I
organized delegations to present petl-
tions to the proper authorities for the
prolonging of this new sobriety for the
duration of the war. This step found
favor with his Imperial majesty, and
an order was issued to that effect. An
other similar campaign to remove the
licenses from privileged restaurants
and clubs was successful, and strong
liquor is no longer available anywhere
In Russia.
"The second month of abstinence
made the manifold advantages so clear
to everybody that when we called upon
his majesty to thank him for his recent
order he promised that the vodka busi
ness of the government would be given
up forever. This promise was promu
gated in a telegram to the Grand Duke
Constantine.
"There remains only now to find else
where the revenue which, up to the
present time, has been contributed by
vodka. There has been introduced in
the duma a bill offering a solution of
this question. The aim of this bill is
not the creation of new taxes or an
increase in the present-taxes, but an
effort to render the government do
mains and possessions more produc
tive." UNHAPPINESS TRADE AIM

CORN PRODUCTS COMPANY.
Witness In Antl-Trnst Salt Says) Price
Lowered Accordingly Competi
tors Are Bouckt Out.
CHICAGO, Nov. 19. The policy of the
Corn Products Refining Company was
to keep Its competitors unhappy, ac
cording to George Chamberlain, of
Decatur, 111., a chemist formerly em
ployed by the corporation, who testi
fied today in the Government's anti
trust suit.
Discussing price fixing, he quoted
E. T. Bedford, now president of the
company, as saying:
"We must sell at a price sufficiently
low so that more competitors will not
be happy in his business."
Conrad Mattheson, then an official In
the company, also helped fix prices.
Chamberlain said.
William F. Plel. of Indianapolis, who
sold the National Starch Company to
the Corn Products Company, said he
could not recall a single starch or glu
cose factory in the United States that
had not been taken in.
He had refused to sign, an agreement
not to engage in the manufacture of
starch, he said, and since had been
operating a factory in Indianapolis,
adopting the prices of the Corn Prod
ucts company.

HALIFAX, N. S.. Nov. 18. How the
aid which Canadians have sent to the
starving Belgians is being applied is
described in a special cable message
today from the representative of the
Morning Chronicle who accompanied
the relief steamer Tremorvah to Rot
terdam with supplies, the gift of the
people of Quebec, cmt.. and the mari

work in charge, and to which the
handling of the Tremorvah's cargo was
entrusted.
"The. potatoes," says the correspond
ent, "are being sent to Liege, where
they have none. The flour will be
sent to Limbourg. a district of 60,000
people, where they have had no bread
for 40 days. The apples and groceries
will be .sent to Brussels, with some of
the general cargo, from which place
the goods will be delivered to the sur
rounding districts. "Jhe clothing will
be distributed throughout the country.
"Captain Lucey. of the American com
mittee, has shown every courtesy to
us and is giving Mr. Elderkln. the Nova
Scotia Commissioner In charge, every
opportunity to render the utmost aid
with Canada's fc-lf ts. One thing must
be emphasized: The Germans are not
seizing any of 'this relljf food and
clothing, but are giving courteous as
sistance to the work of relief."
The correspondent emphasizes the'tir
gent need of the Belgians, dwells on
the evidences of intense and widespread
suffering and forwards an appeal of
the commission for further Canadian
aid.
WOMAN'S DEATH PROBED
FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED 1ST CASE OF
CONTRACT WIPE, AGES 20.
Life Insured In Favor of Husband,
San Pranelseo Physician Ar
eotle Dose Fatal.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 18. Investi
gation by a Coroner's Jury into the
death of Dixie Fay Martin, the 20-year-old
contract wife of Dr. J. W. G. Mar
tin, which occurred in this city Novem
ber 11, brought to light today several
features which have led Coroner Le
land to suspect foul -play.
The young woman, according to
statements of Dr. Martin, had frequent
ly taken narcotics hypodermically - to
relieve suffering caused by valvular
heart disease. On the night of her
death, he said today, he found her lying
unconscious in their home. A physician
was summoned who diagnosed the case
as an overdose of the narcotic.
Delay In informing the Coroner of
the death and tbe nature of the diag
nosis caused police investigation. Thu
stomach and vital organs are in the
hands of the city toxlcologist and tbe
inquest was postponed until that of
ficial shall have rendered his findings.
Dr. Martin produced at the request
of the Coroner what he said was the
original contract between hlmBelf and
the dead woman. It is dated St. Louis,
April 21, 1914.
According to the police Mrs. Martin's
life was insured by two policies written
in favor of Dr. Martin aggregating
$5000. Dr. -Martin told the Coroner's
Jury that he had met Dixie Fay Gor
don In Oklahoma City in 1910, at which
time she was a nurse. He said also he
was a graduate of at St. Louis medical
college and that he was awaiting state
examination to practice medicine here.
He has not been arrested.

You can draw your own conclusion from this

Doesn't it strike you, Mr. Advertiser, that the

"Most modern explosives," he said,
"are based on picric acid, but the com
bination arrived at by French chemists
has shown itself under the test of war
conditions more reliable in Its action
and more powerful in its results.
"Of course, the stories in the- news
papers of the dire effects of our shells
are much exaggerated. It is said whole
companies were stricken dead In the
act of playing cards. I know as a fact
that men have been found dead in
strange attitudes without a scratch.
The explanation of this is simple. The
explosion of the shell causes a sudden
terrific air pressure within a certain
radius. This pressure is as suddenly
withdrawn, the effect being to stop the
whole human organism. It Is as if a
diver were precipitated to a great
depth and instantly brought to tho sur
face again. No living being can stand
such a strain."

"WASHINGTON. Nov. 18. Premier
Asuqlth's statement to the British Par
liament yesterday regarding the clos
ure of the North Sea has not been
made the subject of a xormal commu
nication to the American Government.
It is understood here to have been
nothing more than a repetition to
Parliament of the facts that were com
municated to the State Department
about a fortnight ago by the British
Ambassador in Washington in regard
to the danger to navigation in the
North Sea, and a further notice Is
deemed Improbable.
Notice that the British government
had placed mines in the North Sea to
defend the English channel only after
the Germans had sown mines in north
ern waters and along the Irish coast
probably will be accepted as sufficient
answer to-the recent Inquiry by the
State Department as to responsibility
for the mining, and the Department
will content itself with passing along
the notice of the state of affairs In
the North Sea to American mariners.
It was pointed out today that Mr.
Asquith's statement regarding the con
traband character of copper and oil
also was nothing more than a repeti
tion of the Information communicated
to the United States several weeks ago.
The British embassy here is still try
ing to facilitate the Importation of
Australian wool Into the United States,
notwithstanding the embargo recently
declared. Another communication has
been sent to London In regard to the
