Railroad shares lifted today's dull market out of Its early rut. the first half cf the session reflecting con siderable price Irregularity, notably In in dustrials, equipments and specialties. The movement in rails was stimulated by the relatively favorable December state ments of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific roads, both showing net gains and the re-establishment of the Union Pacific to Its former 19 per cent dividend rates. General news of the day waa seemingly without effect, the suspension of future heatless Mondays having been discounted. The government's proposals to control all costise shipping and acquire terminal fa cilities at the Atlantio ports were equally without influence as market factors. Extreme gains in almost a score of trans portation Issues extended from 1 to 4 points. St. Paul common and preferred and other grangers, as well as roalers sharing honors with Pacifies. Canadian Pacific waa the only laggard, though recovering much of Its loss at the end.

The automobile spotlight is doomed. Following a conference with Com missioner Kugel, Acting Chief of Po lice De'mpsey Thursday morning is sued orders to the police department to banish the spotlight from all mo tor cars. The decision of the police heads 4 , f 1 A. came as tne result 01 a compiauu made' to the city council by Howard Goodrich, who reported that while riding in his car with his wife along the Florence boulevard Wednesday night he was forced to drive into the curb to avoid a collision with an other; machine which carried only a single spotlight. The single spotlight looked like a headlight cn a motor cycle ard Goodrich did not discovei it was- another automobile until al most upon it. Ordinance Not Enforced. A city ordinance prohibiting, spot lights has been in effect for 18 months hut it has not been rigidly enforced. A state law permits the use of spot lights, with the proviso that the light be directed 30 feet ahead of the car. This has led many Omaha motorists to equip their cars with spotlights. "The spotlight is a positive men ace, declared Acting ctuei uempsey, "and it must go. I have issued strict orders to the police department to see that they are abolished." .Reckless motorists will further feel the wrath of the law as soon as the streets become clear, Acting Chiet Dcinpsey declares. The motorcycle squad will begin to pursue speeders at the earliest possible date. In: squad will start work by March 1 at the latest and earlier if conditions permit. Heretofore the motorcycle squad has never started before April. W. A. Frazer to Address Exemption Board Members W. A.

Kennedy Urges Consumers to Store Coal During Summer Store coal in the summer time! Doubtless a' great many domestic consumers have been making up their minds to take precautions not to be caught short of fuel next winter, but John L. Kennedy, state fuel admin istrator for Nebraska, was first to give the slogan actual voice. With the fuel administrators of Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma, Mr. Kennedy sent a telegram to Federal Fuel Adminis trator .Garfield recommending the summer shipment and storage of coal for next season, so that consumers may have at least half of next win ter's supply on hand by September 1.

You sTC WO ONG HAS THREE DEFENSES IN HIS LIQUOR CASES Says He Has Right to Bring in Wine Under Treaty Between U. S. and China Signed in 1876. Wo Ong, Omaha Chinaman, pre sented three separate and distinct de fenses to United States Commissioner Neely in his hearing on the charge of bringing liquor into Nebraska illegally. Wo was arrested Monday at the Burlington freight station, where he had gone to claim four cases of Chinese wine. The cases were taken to the federal building, where they were found to contain 72 bottles of extremely strong and pungent liquor which the officials believe is 10 per cent opium. It is now being analyzed by the state chemist. One of Wo's defenses, advanced through his attorney, John McFar land, is that the treaty of the United States with China, signed in 1876, expressly gives him the right to bring liquor from China. To Celebrate New Year. His second line of defense is that he brought the liquor in for sacra mental purposes; namely, for the cele bration of Chinese New Year. The third defense is that he wanted to use some of it for medicinal purposes; namely, "to cure China boy of leuma tism." i His first two defenses were so sound that Assistant United States Attorney Saxton asked additional time to study them. He holds that, even though the treaty of 1876 may allow the importation of wine from China, the four cases that Wo brought in were rebilled from San Francisco and therefore their transport from San Francisco to Omaha violated the Reed amendment. . Not Interstate Traffic. On the other hand, if liquor were shipped direct from China to Omaha it could hardly be said that the Reed amendment was violated, for that amendment merely prohibits the ship ping of liquor "from any state or ter ritory to any other state or terri tory." On the ground that the liquor was brought in for sacramental purposes, Mr. Saxton holds that the celebration of a pagan holiday like Chinese New Year is not a sacramental occasion. Several boxes of birds' nests and other Chinese groceries which came with the wine were ordered released by the authorities today and Wo took them to his home at 119 North Twelfth street.
