MODELLING in the country more difficult,
the number Of liquor seizures in this
section Of Franklin county has drop
ped considerably and remarkably.
During the past summer the customs
deputies have been very successful in
'eizing contraband liquor and most Of
it har been discovered in automobiles.
A l..rge number of cars were seized
and together with the liquor, makes
an amount in dollars which hardly
seems credible, but is nevert hcless
very true. The customs office has not
given out an y figures Of the total sum
estimated as the value Of the cars and
liquor, but perhaps it would be safe 70
call il 100000 Undoubtedly this de-
cided halt in liquor running has been
caused by the enormous fines which
have been imposed recently on SNUG
rlers by the United States judges.
Although liquor has been the chief
item in the smuggling game, furs have
not been overlooked. United Stated
Deputy Collector Willis Fuller recent
ly made two big seizures on the Mon
treai to Boston trains Of the Central
Vermont railway From two young
women he seized furs amounting 10
81 500 The list included two FUR pats. !
mink scarfs and other valuable fur
garments One nigt recently he
found furs valued at 5000 between the T

BRONX LIQUOR HUNT
FINDS BOROUGH DRY
Only Two Saloons Out of 1926
Visited Have Old Time
Goods.

James Sheylin, Chief Prohibition En-
rorccment Agent, doesn't know whether
there was a leak among his cohorts OF
booze hunters on whether the saloon
keepers read In the newspapers about
the big liquor raid of Wednesday and
became frightened, but he does know
that when one hundred of his agents in
vaded The Bronx yesterday to stage
similar raid they found that borough
as tight as the provcrbial drum. The
agents tried to buy drinks and searched
125 saloons in various sections of The
Bronx, and in only two of them did they
find any intoxicating liquors In most
Of the places they found the proprletors
themselves stationed behind the bar to
scrutinize carefully every applicant for
something stronger than one-half of one
per cent
The dry agents who tried to raid The
Bronx were not provided with search
warrants Thcy simply attempted to
buy drinks at each place they visited,
and whether they failed or not got the
proprictoi's consent to search behind the
| bar. This consent was in all cases
checrfully given. Owners and bar
keepers alike shrugged Indifferent shoul-
| ders, as much rs to say "Go as far as
YOU like"
One Of the two places where the dry
agents say they found booze was nj
