BARGE EMPIRE TIED UP
AT UNCASVILLE DOCK

The one time excursion barge En-
pire, which has been used to carry pa
per freight for the Thames River Spe-
cialties Co. Of Montville, is now tied
up at the paper mill dock at Uncasville
under a lot of libel writs served by U.
S. Deputy Marshal Timothy L. Haw-
ley.
The Empire was vowed back and
forth between New York for the Spe-
cialties Co. by the steamer Eugene c.
Hart
Built in 1900 at Noank the excursion
boat with it's three decks spic and span
in white paint and brass rails was
worth something like $4,000 and she
could easily carry 1000 excursionists
up and down the Sound She had q
bar and q government license and d
stock in trade, but no engine-for, re-
member, the Empire was barge and
had to hire herself toWed wherever she
wanted to go.
In seventeen years the old boat of
course went down a bit in appearance
and value and she was not in very
good condition when Deputy Marshal
Hawley libelled her and sold her IN
der the hammer at NorWalk, January,
buyers reached the wharf with blue
noses, so they begged the marshal to
postpone the sale an hour as they
could get something warming in their
veins. Back they came at the end of
the hour, with noses red, purse strings
loosened and natures mellowed so it
being war time and any kind of a boat
that could carry freight prize, the
bids on the Empire ran UP TO $4,000 and
Deputy Marshal Hawiey sold her to a
Bridgeport man.
The Empire has been in freight SER
vice ever since and it is said has
earned a nice pile of money, but the
bills have not been paid and a week
ago Ira S. Bushey & Sons. incorpor-
ated, of New York, libeled her and
Deputy Hawley tied her up at Uncas-
vile. The owners could appear Mon
DAY at the United States court in this
city if. they wanted to contest the
Bushey claim. but three libels have
since been placed on the Empire which
may be contested May if the owners
desire.
One of these libels is by Ernest H
Merrick, receiver Of the Hart Trans
portation company of New York, and
the bill is for $3.50 for towage Of the
old barge which has had her upper
deck taken off and the lower one is
boarded up so she resembles a floating
barn. She came into Jncasville sew
eral days ago with a cargo OF rags for
the paper mill. Another libellant is the
Gordon w. Anderson company for
$593.74 and still another is the Thames
River Specialties company for $476.12

PORTO RICANS
TRY TO CHECK
USE OF TONES

San Juan, Jane S0.-Efforts are be-
ing made by the Porto Rican au-
thorities to check the use as beverages
or tonics, perfumes and lotions con-
tanning alcohol. The insular treasurer,
Jose Z. Benedicto, and DIR. del Vale
Sarrago, or the health department, re-
Gently asked the house of representa-
tlves to enact legislation to prevent
the use of such concoctions as in
toxicating drinks.
Mr.. Benedicto pointed out that It
was legally permissible to use alco-
mol for Industrial purposes, under
certain regulations, so that any indi-
gidual could prepare formula, have
y approved by the treasury and health
department and sell it freely through
out the island. Theoretically, these
preparations were not for internal
consumption and were harmful to the
health, but in practice it had been
found that they were being drunk In
alarming quantities, he said. Their
sale could not very well be stopped
as they We're permitted by law.
Before prohibition went into force
here" said Mr.. Benedicto, "the alco-
hol used for Industrial purposes in
Porto Rico amounted to between 1000
Turing last March no less than $4,000
quarts were used and in April, $4,000
Iuarts.''
There were two methods OF dealing
With the question through the legisla-
lure, said Mr.. Benedicto. Either by
Selling all those preparations which
were being used as drink, although
manufactured under insular permits.
or by increasing the quarterly license
TO manufacturers to 5000 instead of
the s25 now being proposed, which
would enable only the larger firms to
manufacture such preparations and
would take them out of the reach of
the general public.
DIR. del Vale informed the house of
the measures which had already been
adopted to prevent the use of such
tonics for drinking purposes. At first,
he said wood alcohol had been intro
duced into these preparations, but in
view of the terrible effects it pro-
duced this had been stopped. for they
pie who drank the preparations into
total blindness. The other chemicals
which had been introduced in order
to make the lotions nauseous to the
stomach, had not been very successful,
for means had been found by the peo-
pie of filtering the liquids and other
wise getting rid of such ingredients.
Ii is declared that, although abso-
lutte prohibition has been enforced in
the island for a year, the police daily
are discovering stills for the distilla-
ton of alcohol.
