two autos carrying the city Of

smuggling
For several months previous to the
time Silva was first apprehended, the
customs officials were convinced that
smuggling from the ships arriving here
from the ORIENT was going on. Finally
Silva was caught in the act by In
spector Dick Young. He had gone on
aboard the ship, one of the Pacific Mail

quantity of peculiar Chinese liquor.
This was dropped over the stern of the
