CHECKING UP TAX REPORTS
Government Plans to Prosecute
Liquor PeddIers for Evad-
ing Income Payments.

Wholesale bootleggers in Wash
ington in the next few days will be
called upon to tell the Revenue Bu-
reau why they forgot to pay the
government taxes on the whisky
they sold in Washington against the
law. They also will be asked why
they sold whisky in Washington.
The revenue agents for the past
& few days have been piling up a mass
! of evidence against the bootleggers
of this city and but for the time
necessary to figure out their income
taxes-which they should have paid
and did not--they would be ready
to make the arrests. AS it is the
revenue agents say they have
enough evidence on hand to convict
some "big men" in the city, and are
only waiting for the tabulation of
their income tax and an inspection
of how much taxes they did pay
if any.
MAYNARD IS ARRESTED.
The revenue agents this morning
caused the arrest of Harry Maynard
manager of the Tea Cup Inn. 1872 Fiji
teenth street northwest, on charge
of selling whiskey. The revenue
agents charge that he is one of the
wholesale bootleggers here who have
been supplying the retailers with
whiskey.
He was taken before Commissioner
Hit and held in $4,000 bail for a
hearing on August 8. The revenue
agents also arrested Oakley Isaacs,
1929 Twelfth street northwest. 1t Is
charged that Isaacs was the go-be-
tween for Maynard. 1saacs was also
held in $4,000 bail for a hearing on
August 8. Several Government wit
nesses were also brought before Com
missioner Hit this morning and they
were released on bonds to appear
against Maynard on the date of his
hearing.
With the arrest of Maynard this
morning the authorities began clos
ing their nets on the big men, May
nard, according to the revenue OF
ficers, sold twenty cases to several
persons in Washington.

district, which includes the District
of Columbia, came to Washington
Yesterday and is going over the cases
of the big men" with the revenue
agents stationed here. Mr.. Stone
said that he was very well satisfied
with the progress the revenue agents
had made in this city and he had
hopes that the biggest part of the
trouble would be cleared away in a
few days with the arrests which are
contemplated.
The revenue agents this morning
secuted the idea that most of the
bootlegging in Washington was being
done by soldiers of fortune" as had
been suggested to them They say
that the bootlegging in this city is
done by persons who have lived here
for many years and know personally
