Fast Sales Made on Ship With Federal
Agents on Board.

NEW YORK. Nov. 19.-Lightning fast
sales of whiskey on the deck of steam
ship from Havana, while federal officers
were raiding the hold of the vessel. created
extreme nervousness in the bootleg mar
ket' yesterday and prices reached a new
low level for the post-prohibition period.
This became known when Al sacks
filled with bottles of various liquors were
delivered at the office of the port surveyor.
Federal agents asserted the liquidation
of liquids by sailors and dock workers on
deck was frantic in its swiftneSs. and
some bottles sold as low as half dollar
on the gamble that the transactions could
be completed before the prohibition agents
emerged out of the companionways.
Agents searching the ship found liquor
hidden in nearly every available Spet.
Cases were brought up from the depths of
water tanks; fish lines. hauled out of the
water. disclosed bottles where the hooks
should have been: coal bunkers yielded
bags filled with bottles, and from the
bakers oven. instead of loaves. there We're

Eight quart BOTTLES were found beneath
