when it was noticed that the interior

and after some time trap door was
discovered, which, however, refused to
open. BY means Of crowbars the door
was broken when it was discovered
that it was held by heavy post, held
at the top by hinge and at the Dot
tom, over the door clutch on either
side of which was coil spring con-
nected by electric wires. A hole thru
the wall allowed the entrance OF an
other wire at the will Of the owner OF
the place and which by running 1t
thru and establishing the connection
the clutches would loosen and the
springs pull the post from over the
door, allowing it to open. The police
have frequently raided the place but
each time were unable to discover any
intoxioants This time several cases
of beer were found.
