NET TIGHTENS
ON BOOZE RING
Officials Said to Be Closing
in on Kenosha and Chi
cage Booze Smugglers.
MAY REVOKE PERMIT

The federal net was said TO be tight
ening today around the ring of whiskey
smugglers in Kenosha and Chicago
who had part in the shipping into
Kenosha on Wednesday evening of a
$4,000 carload of whiskey, which after
being shipped on forged permit, was
mysteriously unloaded under cover of
darkness. It was declared that the
delay in arresting the Kenosha men
implicated in the affair was brought
about by q desire on the part of the
officials to wait to spring their trap
until they have all the men implicated
in the affair within their reach.
One of the most outstanding events
in the case during the day was the re-
port that the Chicago & Northwestern
Railway company had had their per-
nit to transport liquor Of any kind
revoked because of the incident.
smugglers Seek Attorneys.
1t is said that the two west side sa-
loonkeepers who have been under sus-
picion in regard to the missing cargo"
have already sought an attorney and
are now awaiting arrest. The federal
agents declare that they are certain
that they will be able to lay their
hands on these men at any time that
they are wanted and that then they
can also confiscate the liquor unloaded
on Wednesday. This liquor. it is said,
is now stored away in the basement Of
the business house Of one Of these men
and there is no grave danger Of it be-
ing removed.
The arch-coEspirators in the case ap-
pear to be two Chicago men for whom
the federal officials are now searching.
It is declared that they are the men
who forged the namA on the permit
and who are representatives Of the big
whiskey ring in Chicago. The charges
which are to be placed against the Ke-
nosha men will largely depend on
whether these men in Chicago are APP
pretended and what story they tell.
Railway Caught in Net.
The insistent rumor that the North
western Railway company had had It's
permit to transport whiskey revoked
temporarily because Of the incident,
was not substantiated at the local Of
fee of the company.
''If it is revoked, I have had no no.
tice Of it" declared w. J. Kiltz, the
freight agent here. 81 know, however,
that there is a squad of prohibition

Burlington, -Eighty-one switch
men employed by the Chicago, Burl-
ington and Quincy Railway company
walked out early today after making
new demands to their employers. The
strikers are members of the Chicago
Yardmaster's association, which has
been largely responsible for recent
railroad tie-ups. They demand dol
lar an hour for foremen and ninety
five cents an hour for helpers. They
predict that the strike will spread

and create another traffic crisis unless
the employers yield to their demands.

Belgian Hero-P riest
Lauds United States
Cardinal Mercier Praises the Country
That Help Save De-
nlOcracy.

Brussels-Cardinal Mereier, the Bel
gian primate, had 1attering things to
say recently about America and Ameri-
cans in little epistle to the Belgian
Touring club, an association for en-
couraging travel. He advised touring
Belgians to visit the United States.
Giving some impressions Of his
American tour last year, the Cardinal
says, Americans are spontaneous.
They do not believe that speech was
given to man to hide his thoughts.
Their speech is no idle circumlocution;
they speak as they feel, and they act
accordingly. Their spontaneity rem
ders them very sociable. Children are
loved because they are candid, and can
dor is a trait of American character.
II like these people; they attract
me; I remain under the spell Of their
magnetism. The American gives you
something more than q superficial i'm
preston; he lays bare his mind.
Many people fancy that in the land of
dollars all efforts are directed solely
to business and the acquisition of
wealth. Nothing Of the kind. Business
men, to my surprise were the first to
send me invitations in most Of the
cities to visited. At their banquets
the postmaster gave a large part Of
his speech to things that matter in
eternity. And the mass Of the people
are at one with the business men.
"The American shows himself as he
is, without buster, but also without
feigned modesty. If he is not a be-
lever, or If he does not practice his
religious belief, he respects the faith
and the rites of others. Sincere him
self, he honors sincerity in others. He
figures that religion, like art, science
and labor, is and should be fairly di-
vided out among mankind. The news
papers, too, bow before nobility of this
sentiment of true liberty. Nobody
dreams of making any form of religi-
Gus life and thought the subject Of
fiippancy or unkind comment.
"The American soul Is truthful; it
opens out; it is not shy.
"The photographer is everywhere.
On one occasion was snapshotted as
II was drinking glass Of water in a
private house. And let me say right
here that at all the public banquets
and many of the private dinners
i attended water was the only drink
on the table.
Cardinal Gibbons, that alert old
man Of IS, the sole survivor Of the
bishops who attended the Vatican
Council in 1870, the best known, and
to my thinking, the most-esteemed and
most popular Of Americans, invited me
to a meeting Of Catholic bishops.
There were ninety-one of us present.
That was at Washington last Septem-
Der, and, we'll, the moving picture men
got to work before could utter word
of my speech. Yes said one Of my
conferees, we like our people to see as
at work We Americans live socially.
Right through our big cities tomorrow
the faithful and their fellow citizens
will see pictures OF the Catholic Epis-
copacy at work They are interested
in us because they know that we are
interested in them"

DEATHS CURVE
CLAIMS VICTIM
Fred Wohlust of Racine
Has Miracle Escape
When Truck Is Hit.
DIR. NELSON ESCAPES

Fred Woh1ust, aged 80, truck
driver for the Miller Carriage Com
pany of Racine, was probably fatal
" injured and DR.. w. E. Nelson,
former sanitary inspector for Keno
sha, narrowly escaped death just after
five thirty o'clock Thursday evening,
when the truck driven by Wohlust was
struck by the north bound Chicago
and Northwestern train at the Berry
vile crossing on the Lake Shore road,
often called Deaths Curve" The
trick, twice hit by the train, was
thrown more than hundred feet and
struck the car driven by DR.. Nelson.
Wohlust was thrown out Of the
flying truck just before it struck the
Nelson car. He was unconscious and
suffering from several injuries when
reached He was placed into pass
ing automobile and hurried to the St.
Mary's Hospital in Racine.
At the hospital in Racine this morn
ing it was stated that Wohlust was
getting along as we'll as could be ex-
pected and that it was believed that
he would recover. The examination
made by surgeons revealed that he
had no broken bones. Following his
being thrown from the car he had
struck on his face and his face and
the entire upper portion of his body
were terribly bruised and number Of
the teeth of the man had been knock
ed out. He was entirely conscious
this morning. He said that he did
not know that the train was coming
and that he had no warning Of his
danger.
Nelson Saw Accident.
The accident, according to the one
eyewitness, DR.. Nelson, was one Of
the strangest that ever occurred near
Kenosha. Dr. Nelson was returning
from Racine and seeing the approach
ing train stopped his car more than
one hundred feet from Deaths
Curve" He also saw the truck be-
ing driven into the path Of the train
and as he saw no gateman out,
sounded his horn and waved his hands
to warn the driver Of his danger.
his warnings were not seen, HOW
ever, and Wohlust drove on to the
track. The train hit the rear Of the
truck and whirled it around and hit
it again. The second time the truck
was thrown in the air several feet.
In it's flight it struck telephone pole
that was snapped and which probably
was responsible for saving DR.. Nell
sons life for a second later the. truck
landed crushing the hood and engine
Of the Nelson car beneath its weight.
Wohlust Falls from Car.
Wohlust stuck to the wheel in the
truck until it almost reached the Mel
son car. Then he fell from the truck
and landed clear of the wreckage by
the side of the smaller automobile.
DR.. Nelson pinned at the wheel Of
his car fortunately escaped serious in
jury. His legs were cramped little
and he received few minor cuts but
outside of this he was uninjured. At
ter he had helped care for the injur-
ed man, he measured the distance his
car was from the tracks and found it
to be 1854 feet.

day won a divorce from Luigi C. Curci.
after a short hearing before Judge
Mcdonald In superior court.
The proceedings, which promised to
be lengthy and sensational, were
brought to an early close when Curci,
in a statement fled with the court,
withdrew his answer to his wife's
suit. The answer had accused her OF
infidelity and named Homer Samuels,
her accompanist, as correspondent.
Judge Mcdonald indicated that the
decree would be granted the singer
on the grounds Of infidelity.
Curcfs formal statement to the
court said that the charges made in
his answer were based on a "misap-
prehension Of the facts" an action
that he profoundly regrets"
