WATCH OYSTER FLEET
FOR RUM SMUGGLING

with the fleet of white-sailed
oyster boats again plying over the
surface of Delaware bay. more than
one Federal agent is on the watNh
because of reports that attempts
have been made to bribe captains
of the oyster schooners to engage in
rum smuggling.
The return Of tho schooners TO
active service has brought out tales
of tempting offers made for some
OF the boats for runs out TO sea on
mysterious trips.
Among the baymen il is said 70
be common knowledge that rum
smuggling has been carried on dur
ing the summer. Revenue cutters
have been more alert OF late. The
fishing and oyster boats carrying
sails and auxiliary engines are sea-
worthy and can make good time in
ordinary weather.
One OF these boats Is reported to
have made half a dozen trips to the
West Indies. returning each time
with a wet cargo. These rum run
ners are said to have secret landing
places whence bottled goods can be
carried off easily in motortrucks or
temporarily hidden.

As an investigation is said to have
proven that the defendant and her
husband treat their children well
and properly provide for them. but
that they set a bad example by their
alleged drinking habits. the case of
Mrs. Susan Hamill. charged with
neglecting her minor children. was
put under the supervision OF Proba-
ton officer Godfrey r. Handy by
Deputy Judge Lynn in Municipal
Court this morning.
It was said TO have been found
that both drink to excess. although
the wife was the only one arrested.
It developed that the husband was
first brought to the police station.
but no charge was placed against
him when he swore out a warrant
for the arrest OF his wife on a
charge OF neglecting the children.
John F. Malloy, representing the
couple. told the court that Hamill
was intoxicated when he signed the
warrant and did not realize what
he was doing.
