Shenandoah, Aug. 1.-THE business
district of Shenandoah yesterday took
on the semblance of distillery and the
streets, for few hours. flowed with
whisky, brandy and beer. So loud was
the odor of the liquor that many imag-
ined that several saloons must be rum
ming in full blast somewhere in the vi
cinity. The cause of the unusual state
of affairs was the confiscation, by Con-
stable William Simmons. of ninety
eight packages of liquor, ranging from
one gallon to five and six. as the case
might be. Thisis the final chapter of the
liquor seizure that has caused more or
5 less grief to parties concerned since it
was made on last Thanksgiving day,
when the county authorities took charge
s0f all the liquor in the possession of the
Wells Fargo and Adams express COM
panies at the Omaha & st. Louis and c.
b. & Q. warehouses. 1t will be remem-
bered that Evangelist NJ. b. Williams
was holding forth in Shenandoah at the
time, and it was thru him that the eff
forts We're made to effect the seizure. 1t
+ was then that the troubles of Justice
! Earl r.. Ferguson began, and he vas
charged publicly by Williams with mall
4 teasance in Office. The suit for SANDER,
brought by Ferguson against Williams,
tried at Clarinda. followed, and in the
meantime the liquor case has been
pending in the courts. Judge Walter L.
Smith, of Council Bluffs, Who has had
the case under advisement has just
rendered his decision and ordered the
liquor confiscated. The express compa-
MES have taken an appeal to recover
the value OF the liquor that was yes
terday destroyed.
