FIND MOONSHINE IN RACINE
Federal Officers Arrest Milwaukee

Milwaukee, Jan. 13.-TWO MilWau-
kee men, said to be residents of the
Third ward, were taken into custody
at Racine and two barrels of wine and
one Of "moonShine" brandy were con-
hScated by the authorities as the re-
suit of raid made by federal officials
and the Racine police on truck
which was being driven into Racine
from Milwaukee. A third man arrest
ed is a resident of Racine. According
to Mr.. O'Neill, the wine and whisky
was made in Milwaukee by Italians,
and sales in Racine had been arranged
for by the Racine members OF the
party. Federal officers, after cOnhScat"
ing the liquor, assisted Mr.. ONelll In
the investigation at Racine and in Mil
waukee This is the second liquor case
brought to the attention of the federal
authorities within a few days, the first
being that of two Racine county sa-
lOOnkeepers who were sW!ndled ou,
of So 200, which sum was paid for IL
ten-gallOn casks which supposedly con-
tanned whisky, but which proved to
contain nothing stronger than water
drawn from Milwaukee tap. Mr..
O'Neill investigated the matter, but IN
asmuch as there was no liquor sales
involved the case did not come under
the jurisdiction of the federal authOr1-
ties. The swindled parties, it is said,
are taking no steps to institute criml-
nal or civil action.
