 FAKE DRY OFFICERS
Amounts Collected By the Agents" Ranged From
 $1 to $500
sy Associatsd Pre.s

New York, January 22.-An organized
 band of fraudulent revenue agents who
 are alleged to have worked under direc-
 ton of a few dishonest agents of the rev.
 enue department, and which has victim
 ized more than 100 New York saloon
 keepers, has been uncovered and the
 ringleaders identified, it was announced
 tonight by James J. Quigley, assistant
 supervising federal prohibition agent MT.
 Qugley declared that the leaders of the
 city-wide swindle cannot escape. The
 amounts collected by the agents it
 was said, varied from $1 to $500, and in
 several instances large quantities of liquor were confiscated by the impostors. The members of the band, according
 to MT. Quigley. were carefully selected
 by the genuine revenue agents, a quali- fication being the ability to use firearms in the event of a trap. The imitation badge shown by the swindlers when they discovered . saloonkeeper violating the law, invariably brought results. he added, and little argument was required to ob- tain payment from the frightened liquor dealers, In one instance, he said, the Self-appOlnteG agents visited a saloon with women companions and after trap- ping the proprietor demanded whisky as well as money. Then they adjourned to a. rear room to celebrate.
 California wine and Kentucky whisky are rolling into New York at the rate of four carloads daily, Mir. Quigley. as serted The wine is valued at $300 a barrel and 15o barrels come in a car load. The owners of the Uquor have ob- taned permits placing it in bond for sale to druggists or manufacturers. The shipments were held up by car shortage. he said, or were delayed in transit until too late to be put aboard ship for ex- port.
 pr. Royal s. Copeland, city health com missioner, appealed to the better class of drug stores today to meet the fed eral regulations and keep supply of liquor for prescriptions, as many repu- table physicians, he said, agree it is need ed for treatment of influenza.

The case grew out of a trip to Rome last September by the negro baseball club, the operator of a taxi concern convincing the recorder that s44 for the trip had been assumed by Talmage and had not been paid.

 Montgomery, January 2.-(Special)-If Alabama bankers can obtain no other re- lief from the order of the federal reserve bank prohibiting the charging of ex- change on items by nonmember banks they will give serious consideration to the establishment of state reserve bank which will care for their needs. accord ing to D F Green, state superintendent of banks.
 Mr Green said the bankers who at tended the conference here Wednesday convinced him that there was statewide opposition to the proposal and that every effort would be made to obtain relief. Before consideration is given to the establishment of a state reserve bank an effort will be made to adjust the diff ferences with the federal reserve bank, ' said MT. Green, but if we are unable to obtain relief in any other way we will take up the suggestion of Mir. c. B. Rogers, who advanced the idea of a state reserve bank during the confer ence."
 The committee named by the bankers to make the fight for them, composed of Superintendent Green, Henry T. Bartlett, of the Alabama Bank CTS Association, and two persons from each congressional district, will be called to meet next week, probably Tuesday, for the consideration of plans. It is probable a conference will first be held with officials of the federal reserve bank, and if this is not productive of good re- suits proceedings will be started in court to prevent the federal reserve system from. requ:ss-g nonmember banks to pay items at par
