That Montpelier is on rum-run-
ming route from the border is indicated
by reports Of the past few days. Sew
eral nights ago call was received
from northern Vermont, tipping off To-
cal officers to watch for booze car
which, however. did not appear in
Montpelier. Different reports lead to
the belief that the route is south
through Lamoille county to Montpelier,
and on in the direction of Barre. The
system includes the use of number
plates not issued to the drivers Of cars
which carry them, as Is shown by re-.
cent reports to Harry A. Black, secre-
tary Of state, from st. Albans and vi
cinity. State automobile inspectors ex-
pect to discover the method by which
the rum runners obtain them. The ef-
forts Of federal, state, county and city
officers are being put forth to stop the
traffic through Montpelier. Because Of
the illegal use of number plates and
the reckless driving of the runners, the
secretary of states office is interested,
and Sheriff Tracy Of Washington coun
liz Is on the lookout for the yiolators of
the law. Prohibition officers are pri-
marily interested. and have enlisted
the services Of the Montpelier police
force. A Packard car carrying a load
Of liquor, which prohibition and coun
ty agents watched for in the vicinity
Of Montpelier Thursday night and Fri
day morning, is thought to have
crossed the river and gone in the di-
rection of Barre, as it elrded the off
GERS. Further investigation by officers
during the day yesterday failed to
bring to hight any trace of the car, but
Il was the impression in the city last
night that further watching might be
done.
