TWO KILLED IN GUNFIGHT OVER “LIQUOR ChnG Ten Arrested in Mississippi for Alleged Participation in Battle Off . Port. H BILOXI, Miss., Jan. 1.—Discovery of two bodies of men, apparently for- eign sailors on the beach here, has led to 10 arrests. by tho local police who! assert the men were killed in a fight which followed an attempt last week te hold up and raid a Wugor smuggling schooner at anchor near the coast. ‘The police theory,) if substantiated, will disclose what is said to be the first instance of attempted piracy in connection with rum running on the Atlantic. About the middle of the past week, according to the police, a Cuban fish- ing smack, rum laden, dropped anchor in the vicinity: of Deg Keys, and the captain made «n agreement for a party of Biloxians to come to the smack in gasoline launches to carry the liquor to the mainland. On Friday night, police assert, the party made the trip to the Cuban boat, but instead of paying for the Hquor, they overcame the crew of the fishing smack, and brought about :00 cases of liquor here. Most of the liquor has been seized, the police declare. The foreign boat disappeared after the fight. The po- lice believe that the two bodies washed ashore were members of her crew. ‘An autopsy showeé tho neck of each man had been broken.

The Longview asylum of Hamilton memorial said, “is that 240 inmates sleep on the floor like cattle every yepht.” Of the mentally disabled placed in all the institntions of the state, of whom, it was said, physicians believe half might be cured by treatment, not one, the memorial asserted, was recetving “‘raedical treatment of any | kind for the mental diseases and cur- “able cases are being daily doomed to permanent insanity." None of the in- stitutions, it was further asserted, se- gregate their tubercular. patients. “An average profit of $300 on each patient out of the $547.50 annual main- tenance fee paid by the government was showin in figures for the nine in- stitutions of the state cited in the memorial.
