According 10 the opinion OF
Attorney General Lyon, given
Saturday at the request OF officers
Interested In the suppression OF
blind tigers, a constable or other
officer can not seize whiskey in
an express office. The stuff can
only be seized after lis delivery
to the party to whom it is con-
signed. Mr.. Lyon also holds that
an express company can deliver
whiskey at night if 1t desires to
do so, and that there is no law to
prevent an express agent from
soliciting orders for whiskey. The
attorney general states that while
as common carrier the South
ern Express company cannot re-
fuse to accept whiskey shipments,
the head officers Of the company
have promised to assist the Off
