ARREST
2, SEIZE
WHISKY

An alleged auto traffic i'm
whisky and other liquors be-
tween Seattle and Tacoma,
which is said to have been in
progress for two months,
was interrupted at lao
o'clock this morning when
county officers seized an
auto on 2 eth street filled
with bonded whisky.
There were 10 cases of liquor
in the car.
Raymond Olymer, age 10, a
Seattle machinist, and e. Cline, a
waiter of Seattle, who were con-
voying the cargo, were arrected
and taken to the Pierce county
jail, where they are anXiously
hoping for friends to bail them
out.
Watch for EN-.
For several weeks there have
been rumors that large quantities
of liquor we're being brought into
Tacoma by means of an auto stage
line.
A|week ago Sheriff Longmire
learned the auto license of the
car carrying the contraband
goods, and set his Officers to
searching.
Last night County Detective
Fred Shaw, with Officers Chill
berg and Jacobs, took a position
on the Pacific highway at the
Puyallup river bridge, stretched
a rope with red lanterns across
the highway, and stopped every
incoming carr
Start for Home.
At 8 o'clock in the morning the
officers became weary of stopping
indignant motorists, and started
homeward. They had stopped
more than 100 cars and inspected
the tonneaus.
AS the officers were walking
up Puyallup avenue, an incom-
ing machine with a load in the
rear seats attracted their atten-
ton, and the officers stopped it.
1t was the liquor bus.
The two occupants denied that
they knew anything about the
liquor shipment, saying that they
had been ordered to deliver some
boxes to a Tacoma address, and
that they did not know the con-
tents.
Hold Up Minister.
One of the automobiles stopped
by the county officers at the Puy-
allup river bridge contained a
Russian minister.
The minister thought he was
being attacked by bandits, and
drove his machine pell-mell
through the rope and its swing
ing lanterns. His car veered off
to one side and plunged into an
Indian graveyard near the Cush-
man school.
When he had righted his car.
the minister drove to the city,
and reported to the police the
presence of hold-up men on the
Puyallup river bridge.
