WINE MEN PLEAD'FOR
RESTRAINING WRITS
Local and California Firms
Heard in u. S. Court.

Argument was heard yesterday by
Federal Judge A. N. Hand on an order
obtained by Scatena, Lawson & Perelli,
winh makers and sellers. requiring the
Government to show cause why II should
not be restrained from enforcing the
war prohibition law against the defend
ants. Samuel Seabury spoke for the
plaintiffs and Earl b. Barnes, Assistant
United States Attorney, for the Govern
ment. Judge Hand reserved decision.
Another suit In behalf of the wine
makers was brought yesterday in the
United States District Court by Mr. Sea-
bury. The plaintiff was the Italian
Vineyard Company. "A California corpor-
alton which has an office at IL Hubert
street. in this city. Francis c. Caffey,
United States Attorney. and William H.
Edwards. Collector OF Internal Revenue,
were made defendants.
The plaintiff alleged that It owns a
vineyard worth 100000 and wineries
worth the same amount In California
It had marketable and saleable wine on
hand on June 30 worth more than ST.
$4,000.
The war prohibition law is alleged to
be unconstitutional and void because II
was passed as an emergency measure
after the war was practically over and
because II constitutes conhscation of
property without due process OF law.
The plaintiff asks for a temporary in
junction pending the trial OF the suit.

FALSE FIRE ALARMS
NEW ROBBERS TRICK
Police Anstuer and Clear Way
for Enterprising Thieves.

The leak at Headquarters, through
which has trickled from time to time
little streams of Information about
burglaries which the police were trying
to keep quiet because publicity annoys
the burglars, turned out a gushing tor
rent of such things yesterday-informa-
ton on robberies wherein the thieves
stole goods ranging from sixty-five cases
of whiskey to the trousers Of an Assista mt
United States District Attorney. Charles
J. Buchner of 1888 West Third street,
Brooklyn. The trousers had S21 in
them, and the cases. stolen from Man
ning's saloon at Third avenue and
Ninety-third street, were full of bottles
and the bottles were full of liquor.
It also developed that the burglars
have devised a nice scheme to keep the
police busy while they ply their enter
prises. They turn in false fire alarms
and when the policemen nave galloped
children first, the holdup men get busy
and reap harvests. Yesterday morning
they held up and robbed a man who
gave his name as George Richards at
Second avenue and Fourth street, while
all the police and all the fremen of the
district were trying to find a fire that
had been reported. And about the same
time the burglars entered the clothing
store Of Herman Stark. 244 Bowery, and
took goods valued at $4,000. practically
the entire stock.
Many loft burglaries have been re-
ported to the police within the last three
or four days. one Of them being the theft
of silk valued at $4,000 from the estab-

CLIDDEN OFFERS CUP

Millionaire Enthusiast Hopes
to Increase Interest.

In order to hasten the day Of the todr-

Millionaire motor and flying enthusiast,
has offered a trophy to be competed for

the Glidden automobile tour was con-
Quoted. The offer was made to Rear
Admiral Robert e. Peary, president of
the Aerial League Of America. and has
been accepted.
III his letter to Admiral Peary. Capt.
Glidden said that airplane manufac-
turers are rushed with orders, and that
the experience of one airplane manufac-
turer who doubled his production three
months ego and Is still behind In his de-
liveries indicates what Is to come In
four months 500 people have bought air
planes, he said. and these he regards as
only the vanguard Of the thousands who
will soon own aircraft.
Capt. Glidden said the present need Is
for more landing fields across the CONT
nent. He would have stations every
twenty-five or thirty miles all the way
from New York to San Francisco. Trans
continental flights would then become
matters of daily occurrence. He believes
the manufacturers can turn out better
machines than they produced in war
time for use in commerce and passenger
transportation.
Capt. Glidden has been actively inter-
ested in flying since 1911 and has pro-
posed several flights tending to establish
the practical use of the airplane. He is
