MANY STILLS DESTROYED
Internal Revenue Omcers Dispose of
1895 In Little More Than One
Year.

In the past year and three months
335 Illicit stills have been destroyed
by Federal officers in Virginia This
information Is embraced in a report
for the month ending September 80,
made yesterday from the Richmond
division OF the United States internal
revenue district to headquarters at
Washington. One county. of which
the name was withheld. had 12S of
these. More than one-haf of the num-
Der were in two counties. None, how
ever. We're found in Henrico County.
Generally the stills were email and
poorly equipped wood and sheet iron
arrangements. but in three or four
cases large copper stills. with a ca
pacity OF $50 gallons. were captured
Ninety-seven arrests have been made
by the officers and operators of the
stills held for trial The seizure OF the
stills is not without great danger, and
in nine OF the raids made during the
above period the ''moonshiners" did
not hesitate to fire upon the officers
from barricades formed about the stills
or from their little mountain huts. The
report also shows that the number Of
stills found this year is fewer than
for the preceding period.
