Counsel for the broken aubmltted afOdavtla STOCKHOLM, Aug. $t (Bpeclal.)-Tha most Interesting point In connection with the eleventh International congress against alcoholism, which opened here two weeks ago with a demonstration of temperance societies, and brought together representa tives of aeventeen different countries, does not appear In the official program at all, though It Is none the less vital to the char acter, and especially to the future, of these biennial gatherlnga. Prince Gustav Adolf, grandaon of the king, when opening the formal business of the congress, summed up the original and primary purposes thereof when ha said that "to fight against the mlauae of alcohol waa one of the moat Important social questions of the day." Here the word of special significance la "misuse." Strictly speaking, the Interna tional congress does not, or should not, seek to restrict a reasonable "use" of al cohol, and In tha Introduction of thla year'i program references are made to "the great and Important aclence of alcohology," to 'alcoholism" and to "the alcohollo prob lem," all of which phrases seem to sug gest the Idea of actual social or physical evils, and. the cure thereof, rather than tha teetotal Idea of absolute abstention, Ir respective of whether the Individual la an actual victim to "alcoholism" or not. Thus the congress should not be regarded from the same atandpolnt as a national confer ence of total abstinence societies, and Its primary object, as thus stated, must ap peal to the sympathies of a muoh wider class of ths community. Division In Rank. But ever since the Inauguration of these gatherlnga there haa been a certain divis ion In the ranks of the adherents, brought about by the attitude of a section whloh. not satisfied with seeking to suppress the evils of a "misuse" of alcoholic beverages. has sought, also, to put down their use In any shape or form. , It la a matter of history that "alcoholism" came Into exist enoe with the Introduction of spirits, and did not prevail among thoa.o our. fore fathers; . who consumed : only beer and cider; , but the extremist section - of the congress Is Inclined to draw no distinc tion between ' use and abuse either of ar dent spirits or of wine and beer. ' This tendency cam Into evidence at the Inter national congress of 1885, held at Antwerp, In . the twenty-one years which have elapaed stnoe the extremist section of the International congress . haa been ateadlly Increasing In numbers and Influence, and Its members claim that they now constitute the majority, while the "moderates" are certainty somewhat uneasy lesa they may not, sooner or later, find themselves, aa one of them has expressed It, "swamped." To understand the position aright, how ever, one must bear In mind that the larger proportion of the "temperance", societies on the continent of Europe (with which the International congress has hitherto been mainly associated) are based on principles differing essentially from those of the teetotal-temperance societies of the TTnlted Btates. ' -Aree to Fee of Light Beer. In Scandinavia the leadera of the tern peranee movement, anxloua in the early daya thereof to wean the people from the aplrlt drinking, which was the curse of these countries, agreed to recognise the consumption of light beer, and In Denmark, about the- year 1804, the brewers were even asked by Bone of the temperance societies If they could not produce a beer of prac tically non-lraloxlcatlng qualities, which would have better keeping qualities than the so-called "white beer," popular In that country for generations past. This whlto beer, made by the top-fermentation process, waa a very unaatasfactory production, read ily turning sour, nut It waa not until 1902 that there waa finally produced In Copen hagen by the bottom-fermentation process, a thin Bavarian beer, which really an swered the desired, requirements. Blnce then one brewery firm alone In the city haa Increased Its outpnt of this "temper ance beer" to $0,000 barrels a year a figure not Inconsiderable In view t'. the fact that tha total production of - Denmark Is only 1,600,000, and that there arw In the country no fewer than $(9 breweries producing "duty-free" beer (that Is, teer having lesa than Pti per cent weight of alcohol, equal to about I per cent of proof e-plrlt). In Sweden the legal limit of alcohol for "duty-free" beer la 4 per cept In volume (not weight, as In Denmark, with per cent of extract, though brewers. who pro duce not only "svagdricka," aa auch beer la moatly called, but beers above the aald limit,, have to pay duty on their total consumption of malt In tha brewerleo where tha two varieties are produced, tha excise authorities declaring that they cannot check the respective quantities, so that tha freedom from duty for "temperance haer' applies In Sweden only In the case . of breweries where such beer alone la pro duced. Way Membership to Large. The fact that tha temperance societies of Sweden, almost without exception, have hitherto recognised the consumption by their members of beers of the kind In question baa, undoubtedly, done much to contribute to the magnitude of their mem bership, so that the 10,000 temperance peo ple who took part In the procession were not all "teetotalers." Today the produc tion of light, duty-free beer la Sweden ha attained to tha proportion of 1,400.000 hectolitres the year, and nearly 'the whole f thla Is consumed by "temperance" peo ple, including women and children. Reck oning, also, beers of a stronger type, and ranging In strength up to about S per cent of alcohol, beer represents about three tenth of th total consumption of alco holic beverage In Sweden, the remaining save-teeth being represented mainly by ABAD. India, Aug. 31. (Special ! ire Indications that the Bengali agitato., are becoming Impressed with the neceastty of being more cautious in their uttsrancea In public. Even the redoubtable Burondranath Banerjee la ainglng a small tune. Addressing a faithful band of stu dents on the subject of the coming an niversary of the boycott movement, the "King of Bengal" said: The time for speech-msklng la past and gone. The orator haa achieved hla worx, and It la now for a statesman to enter tha arena. I cannot help thinking that the atmosphere la surcharged with a aplrlt of diatruat. Our rulers distrust us, snd wa reciprocate the compliment by distrusting them. Why should they send detectives and policemen after ua to watch our pro ceedings, and send us to Jail If we are caught tripping? We are no conspirators. plotting to subvert the British empire. We are not revolutionists; we are anxious to reform, not sham reform, hut genuine, real reform. Antonomous self-government under British protection Is the goal of our aspirations, and we are resolved to have It. We may be prosecuted, persecuted, and sent to Jail for It, we are resolved to avail ourselves of the constitutional means at our dlspoaal for Its attainment." 'Constitutional means" have not alwava been part of the Bengali platform. Poa slbly the presence! of police In the audience exerted a restraining Influence on tha Bengali apeaker.

The powers have become convinced that the Turks are not responsible for the dis turbances, but that nearly all of them originate with the Greek or Bulgarian bands.

The cabinet ministers met here today and discussed the Moroccan situation with President Falllerea. The desperate fighting between the French troops and the Moors near Casa blanca August 28, during which the Moorlah fanatlca demonstrated their cunning, ability and bravery, la accepted as showing that France haa a real war on Ita handa, with probability of a long and enormously expensive campaign In Morocco. At the conclusion of the confersnce a dispatch waa sent General Drude, the French commander at Casablanca, giving him instructions In regard to hla future movements, but the nature of the steps determined upon waa not announced.
