so Samples of 'Hootch
Show None Is Real Stuff

A TLANTIC CITY, N. j., June
25.-Special Prosecutor Bur
ton A. Gaskill has had chemical
analysis made of fifty samples of
hootch taken from bootleggels
who are preparing to supply the
big summer crowds which are
now flocking to the resort, and he
said tonight that in all of it there
was not one single drop of honest
to goodness whiskey or gin. Most
of the gin is a concoction of
molasses, alcohol, water and juni-
per berries, which tastes some
thing like gin and kicks like
sledge hammer.
The bootleggers are making an
extraordinary profit on the sale
of this stuff, and the Prosecutor
said new dealers are springing up
faster than the old ones can. be
detected. The "whiskey and gin"
sold here can he produced for
about As cents a quart and is
bootlegged at SO quart and up.

CHICAGO, June a5.--A suit to .est pro-
visions of thu Eighteenth Amendment
and the Volstead Law was hled in United
States District Court to-day by former
Senator j. Hamilton Lewis, in an at
tempt to recover whiskey valued at
100000 stored In Chicago warehouses.
The plaintiffs are dis.il,ers and 100
owners of bonded whisray The suit
does not attack tho va.di;y o. The pro-
hibition amendment or NJ ,he Nostead

measure can apply to whiskey deposited
IN Government warehouses by the direc-
tion of the Government before either
measure was passed, where the goods
are now owned by the same owners who
deposited the liquors on a contract to
have 1t returned when the Government
tax was paid.
The principal new point of the COM
