Crew for Landing
Alcohol on Coast

Boston, Dec. 0.-SiXty-fi five hundred
gallons of alcohol from st. Pierre,
Miquelon, was landed somewhere on
the New England coast from the
British schooner Golden West before
she was picked up in Massachusetts
Bay by the coast guard cutter Acush-

against Captain and crew by the gov
ernmcnt today.
Charged with unloading and land
ing" the alcohol, Captain Dennis
Amero of Saugus, skipper of the
Golden West, and one member of the
crew, Genara Balsanno, of Boston,
were arrested on federal warrants.
Both pleaded not guilty in federal
court Four other members of the
crew were detained as material wit
nesses. In default of bail all six men
were sent TO East Cambridge Jail to
await hearing on Tuesday, next.
Flippo Bruno of Boston, was ar
rested later. He was held in default
of $4,000 bonds on the same charge
as that preferred against Amero and
Balsanno. He is not a member of the
crew and his connection with the
case did not appear tonight.
Federal authorities said tonight
that more arrests were expected.
They said they were after "the man
higher up in the alleged liquor run
ming project. The ship. under British
registry, they said, was purchased in
Halifax recently by a former Boston
bartender.
Federal officers refused to disclose
al what point on the coast they be-
lieved the alcohol was landed. They
did say. however. that they had word
that when the schooner left ST. Pier
re she carried alcohol valued at $151,-
coo. and that only 4 small part of that
was now aboard the ship which is
tied up to a dock here.
The four Novo Scotia seamen held
as material witnesses will not suffer
financially as n result of having to so
to Jail. They will get their board free
of charge and in addition will receive
81 a day from the government. The
men are Charles Hewitt, VIM, c.

only to the low temperature but to
the wind which made it extremely
uncomfortable in the morning. At 6
o'clock yesterday morning the ther-
mometer read about 6 below 1t
gradually warmed up until little
after noon when it commenced to
again grow cold. About four in the
afternoon it was about 10 above zero
and at 10 ?. NJ. it had gone to two
below. The cold bothered the trains
considerably, as they were unable to
steam properly and so some of the
afternoon trains were quite late.
