take their time about the matter and
do it very thoroughly.
The local board is expecting a very
large call during the first part of the

BOOTLEGGING
ON HORD'S HILL
IS UNEARTHED
Police Learn That Liquor Is Being
Sold In Negro Settlements and
Warrants Are Issued-Iess
Lewis Is Charged.

Warrants we're issued in Police
Court yesterday afternoon against
Jess Lewis, colored charging him
with bootlegging and against William
Coryell, colored, charging him with
disorderly conduct. The issuance of
these warrants grew out of the arrest
Of Bess Haley, colored, late Sunday
afternoon.
When the Haley woman was
brought out of Jail yesterday after
noon for a hearing, Chief Ort took her
into his office and gave her thor
ough grilling to learn from her where
she had secured the liquor with which
she became drunk. After some liz
tie time the Chief finally secured from
the woman confession that she had
procured the liquor from Jess Lewis,
Following up this tip Chief Ort car
ried out the case until he learned that
Lewis is one of the men responsible
Tor the extensive use of LIQUOR in the
Hords Hill neighborhood For some
time the officers have known that
| some one was illegally dealing in liQ-
no little job to run the case to the
ground and find out the guilty party.
Just how many have been dealing in
liquor in this Negro settlement the Of
ficers do not yet know but they have
for some time known that large guam
titles of '"booZc" have been brought
down from Manchester and have been
brought in from Cincinnati and Lex
ington.
The William Coryell warrant also
grew out of this investigation and it
is understood that Coryell knows
something about the liquor dealing
that has been going on in the Hords'
Hill neighborhood
This is the first bootlegging case to
develope in Maysville since the new
state anti-shipping law went into eff
feet and its developments will be
watched with much interest.
For many weeks the situation here
has been very clear and there has
been very little drinking or disorder
but during the past few weeks the
officers have realized that liquor was
being handled somewhere in the city
and this arrest it is thought solves the
problem.
All three will be given hearings in
Police Court this afternoon.

German Crown Prince Brings Two Of
Best Divisions to Oppose Ameri-
cans 49, Much Hand-tO-Hand
Fighting In Villages.

With the American Army on the
AisneMarne Front, July 20 The
American troops tonight still held the
apex of their advance, won a struggle
with the Germans in which the op-
posing lines moved forward and back
ward time and again, Gergy, on the
north bank of the Ourcq, changing
hands six times.
The Crown Prince of Germany and
his generals paid the Americans a
great compliment in bringing up
against them two of their best divi-
sions, the Fourth guards and Bavar-
ians. They had been in reserve, pre-
sumably for the operation. They had
been delayed and reached the army
north of the Marne Saturday night
They moved through the retreating
main body yesterday and came into
action early today They did not re-
place any of the German troops al
ready in the line, but served as rein
forcements.
In the repeated changes in position
both sides employed all the tactics of
modern warfare. After artillery
preparation direct advances some
times were made; at other times en-
veloping movements were tried, With
the Americans there operated a few
light French armored motor cars
which did brilliant work in rushing
the line at times their guns replying
point blank to those of the Germans,
Scores of times the khaki and the
gray clad men met in the streets OF
the little towns and on the slopes of
the river in hand-to-hand encount-
ers.
The bayonet was used, but the
Americans effectively used their pis-
tolls as we'll. There was much fight
ing actually in the water, where the
Germans attempted to rush their an
tagonists to the south bank of the
stream. There were times when blood
tinted and muddied stream gave evil
dence of the violence of the conflict
There were many deaths as result
Of the slightly wounded men being
drowned.
1t was late in the afternoon when
Gergy for the sixth time was in the
possession of the Americans. AT the
same time it was reported that every
other position held by the Americans
Sunday night had been retaken.
From other parts of the long line
from Scissors around to Rheims come
reports of the allied lines everywhere

sisting of the First Regiment Band

men were among the first to arrive in
France behind General Pershing's
first contingent and since he has been

yesterday by his father is exactly like
all form kilograms sent to parents
when their sons are wounded.

ment but will likely appear in today s
list as it is usually the custom of the
