Staging one of the most Spcctu-

police history, Customs Officers Ira
ID. Owen and Ciinton {. Thames,
last night were successful III catch
ing eight cOntrabanu chinese at
Shepards bridge.
The catch was made about midnight
just as the big Packard car in which
they We're riding was about two thirds
of the way across the big mountain
span. NJ. NJ. Morriss, white, and giving
his residence as CaleXico was driving
the car.
The cinnamon We're brought to the
county Jail here, and We're registered
under the following names: Sem kam,
Sewie San, NJ. Fooe, Sem Nah, Lin
Kee, Yee Ping, Lem Sit, and Linn Gin
Local customs officials had been OF
the lookout for an attempt to smuggie
the Cinnamon into this country for
the last three weeks.
The first attempt was made some
ten days ago, when Morriss drove his
big Packard to the seven foot drop due
east of CaleXicO, not seeing the china
men, MorrisS decided that some slip up
of their plans had happened and that
they were prevented from making their
scheduled appearance. However, one-half
hour later. - Chinamen did show up.
and for the fact that Moiriss was not
on the job, the expedition was postpon-
ed until last night.
Calexico Man Involved
CroSs-eXamination of MorrsS this
afternoon brought out the fact that he
had agreed to take the Cinnamon to
san Francisco for $1,000, or 5000 each.
He said, THAT he knew he might be
stopped, but that he thought he could
get through all right, and that he would
hazard the chance" Moriss is mar
ried and lives with his wife and child
in CalcXicO.
Chinese that are successful in reach
ing San Francisco from below the line
are sold into slavery there for $3.50 per
noad. This is the sum per head when
the boss Chink' in San Francisco would
have received for the present bunch,
provided they had been delivered to
him.
All Roads Watched
Every outgoing road from Imperial
county has been closely guarded for
way the Chinese might have gone, they
were sure of capture. Inspector w. a.
Brazie, officer in charge at the CaleX-
leo customs house, received a congratu-
latory message this afternoon from Al
