FIRST LIQUOR IS
NABDED At CRISFIELD
Arrests Under the AntiShip-
ping Law---Wet Goods
in Suit Cases

CRlSFIELD. Nd, May l9.-The first
arrest in Cristield under the Eastern
Shore anti-shipping law occurred Satm-
day morning, when William Nelson
white. and Charles Rigby, colored, were
apprehended by Sheriff Elwood Sterling.
Nelson went to Baltimore ON the
steamer leaving Crisfeld Thursday
night, and according to information Sc
cured by the sheriff, took three dress
suit eases with him. II was reported
that the man would bring back n large
quantity of wet goods Saturday morn
ing
When the steamer reached Crisfield.
about o'clock a. m, Sheriff Sterling
and two deputies were ON hand to watch
for Nelson and his suit cases. When
the vessel docked Charles Rigby.
negro barber, walked aboard the steam
en- and came off with one of Nelson's
suit cases. About this time gasoline
boat in which Nelson is interested
slipped around the corner of the dock,
and the remaining suit cases were
dropped in the launch from the steamer.
The sheriff Immediately arrested Nell
son and took charge of the suit cases
which had been dropped in the gasoline
boat, while Night Officer Byrd followed
Rigby to the barber shop where he is
employed and captured him. The suit
cases were packed with pints and
quarts of wet goods.
Nelson and Rigby were placed in jail
charged with violating the anti-sbipping
law, and at a trial before Justice w g..
nritton We're each fined $40 and costs.
The prosecution of the man has
caused considerable discussion as to the
validity of the law. In some quarters
il is claimed that man cannot bring
in any more liquor than he can law
fully have shipped in. Others contend
that person can bring in any amount
he chooses, but cannot have more than
one gallon shipped in by means Of a
transportation company in any one cal
cndar month.

for hot days as it will not spot nor

with the skin that it cannot be detected
and it lends an exquisite charm to the

SPLIT BY Cartoon
Women Opposing Suffrage
Resent the Charge Of
Aiding Liquor
DEMANDED
OR WILL WITHDRAW

BALTIMORE, Md. May 19.-An-
eered by the recent publication of
cartoon in the American Issue, the
official organ of the Maryland Anti
Saloon League, members of the |
League who are also affiliated with |
the Maryland Association Opposed to
Women Suffrage are threatening to
withdraw from the former organiza-
ton.
Some of Baltimore's most promi-
nent anti-suifragists have openly de-
clared that they will withdraw their
support from the Anti-Saloon League
because of the alleged insult, and
have demanded that Rev Dr. Thomas
Nj. Hare, editor of the American
Issue, print an apology in his next
issue.
The trouble, which came to a head
at meeting of the Maryland
anti-suffragists. followed the printing
of a cartoon which showed a figure
designated as an anti-suffragist sit
ting at a table, apparently taking
counsel with a "white-slave trader"
"saloonkeeper," "dope-sellers" and
| others.
Ants Threaten Withdrawal.
Today Mrs. M. c. Talbot, execu-
tive secretary of the local anti-suf-
frage body. said that action on the
part of the national anti organization
will follow She said that the failure
Of the editors of the American Issue
to make public apology Will mean
a severance of the kindly relations
between the antis and the anti-saloon
forces.
Mrs. Talbot declared also that the
anti-saloon people constantly spread
the idea that those opposing suffrage
are in league with the immoral ele-
ments of society.
DR.. Hare, according to Mrs. Talbot
has agreed to make apology for the
cartoon, but she said that this action
will be inadequate to heal the wound.
She also declared that DR.. Hare in
formed her that everywhere the Anti
Saloon League found itself opposed
by the women who we're also opposed
TO womans suffrage.
It is this statement that has espe-
cially aroused the anger of the anti
suffragists. who claim that, on the
contrary, they have hitherto both as
an organization and as individuals
assisted in the fight against the liquor
traffic. In the future, however, Mrs.
Talbot was of the opinion today that
unless the Anti-Saloon League quits
absolutely its policy of CHASING the
anti-suffragists with the worst ele-
ments of crime and vice the hostility
between the two organizations would
result in open warfare of no uncer-
tain quality.
DR.. Hare of the local Anti Saloon
League, stated this afternoon that the
Maryland branch of the League hac
control of only four pages of the
national organ. The American Issue
and it proposed to publish in the mex
issue that the local organization as.
sumed no responsibility except fol
the matter appearing on its own par
ticular four pages.
Nothing in the way of apology out
side of this will be made, according
to Dr. Hare.
