M'CARN WILL NOT
MAKE Fight ON
THE OPIUM ring
Will Make Investigations When
Cases are Presented in Full
to District Attorney

While not indicating that his office
| will wage any special fight against the
opium ring which it is alleged is in
/ existence in Honolulu. United States
District Attorney Jeff McCarn this
morning outlined the policy OF his Of
fee with regard to matters pertaining
to the smoking and smuggling of the
poppy drug, pursuant to the arrest by
Mgrshal ]. j. Smiddy last night of
six Chinese who were discovered smok-
| ing opium in a tenement in the heart
lof the city. -,
This Office is ready at any time to
make investigations of opium cases
when the facts are presented to us
in full" said Mr.. McCsrn. AT the
same time, this office is prepared to
make any raids when it is deemed nee
essary There is no occasion that Il
can see to carry on, or to commence
any special fight. Il will be the case
OF this Office handling the opium mat
| tiers about which it receives informa-
| tom So 49,.
When Marshal Smiddy and Deputy
Marshal Albert Harris went to the
address in motel street last night as
| indicated In a warrant issued late in
the afternoon at the instance of the
district attorney, All Qnon, All Kong,
All Yau, All Poi, All Tai and Moi Chew
are alleged to have all been inhaIing
the acrid fumes of the poppy drug.
Smiddy says that he and Harris we're
forced to break into the place, after
they had gotten the guard out of the
way. ~ -. -
The six Chinese were placed under
arrest and lodged in Oahu prison. The
marshal says that, while he and Har-
ris were in the tenement room, two
the purpose, Smlddy says he believes,
of obtaining opium or its deriyatiye.
As the result of their, raid
from the arrest or the Chinese Smid-
dy and Harris collected an opium pipe,
four pipe bowls, a knife, tin of yen
shee, two tins of opium, a package of
yen shee and IL shells of yen shee.
When the room was looked over this
morning by customs officials, = it be-
came evident that the place had been
visited during the night, possibly by
friends of the Chinese now in custody.
No further paraphernalia was brought
to light with the exception Of a small
bowl, in which, one of the customs
men claimed, opium had been mixed,
and two small packages of yen shee.
The presence of a large NUMBER of ap-
pie boxes led one Of the officials to
believe, he said, that the Chinese may
have brought opium into the territory
from the mainland concealed in these
boxes. The room was. fitted up with
hunks and many comforts, including a
large electric fan. ..F ....
The case of the Chinese will be
heard before United States Commits
sioner George S. Curry at O'Clock

ALLEGED THIEF CAUGHT

st. JOhnSbury Deputies Clam They
Arl ested frank kObeI Is in Victory
After a chase lasting nine days,
one of the men suspected of break
| ing into George Wallaces store at
East Ryegate on the night of Nov.
3, was taken into custody at Vic
toTy last Thursday. The man gives
he name of Frank Roberts and
claims he lives in Canada. With a
pal, whom he calls Harry Smith, of
Pennsylvania, he was located last
week Monday at Albert Rabbiteau's
in East Haven. Deputy Sheriffs
Garfield, Gray and Stafford went to
Rabbiteau's and SURF ounded the
house, but the pair made thei. es-
cape into the woods. Smith headed
for the Canadian line, while Roberts
set his course east toward Victory
Mountain.
1hls was Tuesday morning and
neither was heard from again until
Thursday morning when Roberts ap-
piled at Dan Murchie's in Victory for
shelter and food. He had been in
the woods since the office disIodged
.hem at East Haven and had trav-
eled night and day, covering many
miles, without food and. when he
appea. ed at MuIchie's his toes were
frozen and he was greatly emaciated
from exposure and starvation. Mrs.
Murchie, recognizing him from de-
scriptions sent broadcast by Sheriff
Worthen, worked a ruse TO keep him
until she could get the officers there.
ohe sent him into the woods to help
the men bring in a deer, with the
p omise of a good dinner, and while
he was gone she had Mrs. A. E.
Breed telephone the sheriff. Dep
uty Sheriff Garfield and Chief of Po-
lice inley started for Victory at
once and got there just in time to
meet Roberts as he came out of the
woods. He was brought here and
will be given a hearing today.
According to the authorities, Rob-
cts made a clean breast of the af-
fair He claims there were tn. ee
implicated in the break. He and
Smith headed north, boarding
freight train. From Lyndonville
they got ride on milk team to
East Haven, where for several days
they were The guests of Mr.. Rabbi
teau. The latter was arrested for
ha. boring the men but the charge
against him will not be pressed.
Most of the stolen property, in
Guiding clothing, ring and watches,
has been recovered.
