CHIEF SHEDECK GIVES
VIEWS ON DOOTLEGG|NG
Declares People Refuse to Give Their
Names or Definite Information
Of Alleged Booze Joints.
INVESTIGATIONS REVEAL NO
LIQUOR OR SUSPICIOUS DRINK
Drunks Tell Court They Get Their jag
Over at Independence No
titled When They Arrive.

Apprehending bootleggers is like To-
eating pins in bale of hay, according
to the statement made by Chief of Po-
lice Shedeck this morning. He declar-
ed that if there is any bootlegging 60
ing on in Salem it is being done in a
manner entirely foreign to that of op-
orators in other dry towns.
Here is the trouble" stated the
chief of police: "People will call me
up over the phone and tell me that
there are certain places in which booze
is being sold. They won't give their
names nor any other information what
ever, with the exception of stating
where they believe liquor is being sold.
Well, l go out and investigate. What
do / findi Nothing whatever to indi-
cate that the places mentioned by the
informers were violating the booze
laws.
Investigates Pool Hall.
=" For instance, take the place of
TOoze & Patterson, the men who run
the pool hall on State street. Police
Matron Lynch told me that the place
was not properly conducted, and sever
al Others, who refused to give their
names, also made about the same com
plant. / called at the pool room, went
through it from cellar 10 garret and
inspected everything there was for
sale. | found nothing, absolutely moth
ing, that would even lead me to sus-
pect that any booze was being dispos-
ed of in the building.
81 have also investigated other
places with the same result. If any of
these places had had any quantity of
booze on hand, it is cineh | would
have run across it in my search of the
premises. We arrest men for drunken
ness, but invariably the men will tell
the court that they secured their jag
over in Independence or some other
nearby town. These fellows come to
this city in a state of intoxieation and
just as soon as they land here telephone
calls by the dozen come into the sta
tion and we are informed that there is
a drunk within the city limits. The in
formants, however, always fight shy
of giving their names and will not ap-
pear during the trial of one of these
men they accuse"
The chief is being arraigned by ma
NY who accuse him of neglect in the
performance of his duties in regard to
bootlegger catching. He stated empha-
tically this morning that unless certain
parties ceased digging" there will
be a'lawsuit before long.

NOTES FROM WASHINGTON.

When it comes to luminOusity of
neckwear, Judge Adamson, representa-
tive from Georgia and chairman of
the house interstate commerce commit
tee, has old Soc Solomon in all his
glory looking like a faded sepia print.
About fortnight ago the Judge re.
eeived from Georgia box containing
dozen or two of THESE searfs. From
the assortment could be taken every
hue of the rainbow, each tint of the
well-known spectrum, and several 9th
ers, until the discovery of ultraviolet
and the intro-red rays of science, were
not known to exist at all.
Now when the Judge saunters through
the dim house corridors the bands of
tourists get the impression that a
torchlight procession and n Fourth of
July setpiece celebration, with a radi-
ance lent by first cousin of HALEY s
comet, is visiting the halls of congress.
The first perfectly satisfied Mexi-
can refugee to arrive here is j. j. Slade
of Columbus, Ca, big property holder
at Mieheacan.
Calling on Secretary Bryan with his
friend John Lind, Slade verbally patted
the premier on the back, told him the
administration Mexican policy was o.
H., and almost gave the secretary ap-
oplexy by failing to ask that the fleet
and the army both be sent inland to
protect his holdings.
my property is land-and it is
nailed down." he told the secretary,
'and 1 certainly wouldn't want to
have single American boy shot for
the sake of my holdings.

that Uncle Sam has treated me mighty
fine, and L IN satisfied with him in this

NO WAR FOR ITALY,
SAYS STATESMAN

A. b. Fasola, an importer Of oils and
wines, Of 80 River ST.. Hoboken, and a
cousin of Enrico Benedetta, private
secretary TO the Italian Secretary of
State, received yesterday a cable mes
sage from the Italian Foreign Office TO
the effect that the chance OF Italy en-
tering the European war is remote.
Fasoa4, VIII owns extensive proper
ties in Italy, became alarmed at recent
press dispatches, which stated that
ltal, would declare war in the near
future. and cabled to Benedetta for IN
formation. The answer came last night
from the Secretary of the Italian For
eign Office.
"No cause for worry" il read. "Italy
will maintain strict neutrality under all
circumstances"
Tasola said that according to letter
advices which he has received lately
Italy is the only European country
through which the Germans and Aus
trians can receive their food supplies,
Holland having yielded TO the repre-
sensations made by the Allies and pro-
hibitei the passage OF food 20 Ger
many.
According 20 Fasola, who says he is
in close touch with Italian affairs. the
commercial relations between Italy and
her form n allies, whom she refused to
join in battle. have increased 90 such
an extent since the war began that
her paralyzed financial condition has
materially improved during the last
few months, and IL would be folly for
her 70 throw away the chance OF re-
plenishing her depleted exchequer.
