Police Make Raid on Two
West End Hotels.
BENDER RAID A WATER HAUL
Seventeen Cases of Beer
Found at Hotel Nordica.
Afiidavits are Filed by Two Leaders
IN the Law and Order League
Claim Some One "Peached"

Claiming that they had, inside in
formation to the effect that intoxi-
cants were being sold at the Bender
and Nordica hotels on West Center
street, Rev. H.. VI McCleary and
Rev. George Barnard appeared at po-
lice headquarters Saturday evening
and filed search warrant affldavits
against the two places of business.
As a result of the warrents, Chief
of Police Levi Cornwell,. accompan-
led by Patrolmen Frank Wilhelm aud
James ClIsic, visited the Nordica ho-
tel at o'clock and uncovered sew
enteen cases OF beer. The liquid hops
was loaded on a dray and transferred
to police headquarters where 1t was
locked In cell for safe keeping.
AT the same time Captain of Police
Link Bond, assisted by Patrolinen
Jack McDonough and Darius w.
Bell, searched the Bender hotel.
The latter was water hall, how
ever, no intoxicating liquors of any
nature having been disclosed.
The leaders of the Law and Order
league claim that the failure TO find
intoxicants, at the Bender hotel was
the result OF some party tipping
the proprietor. They say that, they
are positive thet the arm has been
violating the option laws every day|'
The police experienced little trou-
ble in finding the intoxicants at
the Nordica hotel. Several cases
were located behind the bar in plain
sight, while number were taken
out of the cellar.
The Law and Order league claims
that 1t was instructed on good au-
thon,ty that the places searched were
receiving oonsignments OF beer be-
tween the hours OF 3 and o'clock
each afternoon. In order to be
doubly sure the league ordered the
search on Saturday afternoon at the
hour when they believed the blind
tigers" would be engaged in accom-
modating the lalboring element.
AS result Of the search, Levi
Cormwell filed an affidavit against
Herman Kalldbrenner. proprietor OF
the hotel Nordica, charging him with
selling or having in his possession at
his place of business, certain wet
goods, in violation to the Rose coun-
ty option laws.
