ELEVEN BELLS. CLOSE SALOONS.
How the Farmers Of Queens Fooled the
+, Excise COPS with the Village Alarm.

After struggling with riddle which
they could not guess, Detective Sergea nts
McCauley and Griffith of Inspector kane's
staff confessed, in Queens borough head
quarters at Jamaica yesterday, that the
farmers, as they called them, had been too
much for them. For months the sleuths
had been seeking to make excise arrests
in the smaller places in the borough, but
without success. In Long Island City,
Jamaica and Maspeth they were able to
make arrests, but in Evergreen, East
Williamsburg, Ozone Park and the other
more rural settlements they would find
everything closed tight although they were
satisfied that the law was being violated.
A week ago Yesterday at Evergreen they
noticed that Just after they arrived an alarm
of fire was rung, but rs there was no excite
ment the COPS supposed that II was due to
crossed wires McCauley noted, however,
that the bell sounded eleven strokes. They
did not stop TO locate the cause and after
an hours inspection of closed saloon doors
Yesterday their first visit of the day was
TO East Williamsburg, and they had not
gone far before the village tirebell began to
ring. II sounded eleven times. McCauley
did some thinking, and as result OF his
thoughts and co,vie Of hours Of quiet
investigation and putting things together.
the seuths came to the conclusion that
eleven bells were n warning to close the
saloons and that the news OF their APP
proach was telephoned along from one VII
lage to another.
