and for the defence There was someone
passing In and out of the sanctum nearly
all of the time
But at length everything was adjusted
and the case was ready to procede. The
little commissioners room was filed with
active parties to the case.
The case for the Government was not
very enthusiastically pushed and the
commissioner asked only two questions
throughout the entire hearing, and these
were on cross-examination of the witnesses
for the defence. The attorneys for tho
defence conducted the questioning of the
Governments witnesses on direct testI.
mony as we'll as on cross-examination.
But preparation always shows it's re-
suits. The witnesses needed little ques-
tioning. Each one said his little say, and
was dismissed. Constable Kennedy was
the principal witness for the Government,
and he told in detail of his search for and
arrest Of the three men whom he believed
to be responsible for the placing of the
liquor in the car-the two negroes and Mr..
Black.
Brelinger and Amos substantiated the
facts as related by Kennedy. There was
no effort to bring out In the testimony of
these men anything that would connect
Black with the case. They simply told
what they could remember and withdrew.
The negro porter, Mandley. presented
the crux Of the case. He declared under
oath that he was charged with the respon-
sibility for provisioning the car, that he
had It switched where he pleased, that he
bought what he pleased for it-by infer
ence, even though the purchase amounted
to $4,000 worth Of liquor, although this was
not brought out in the questioning
He said that the owner of the car did not
know of his (the porter's) plans to obtain
a large quantity Of liquor, and that he ar.
ranged for its being placed there on the
night of the raid. No effort was made at
the hearing to discover the source of the
liquor or to see II Blacks money or per-
sonal check paid for II.
The Washington times., 1921-04-10

The negro was not arrested by the Fed
eral authorities and made a co-defendant.
Following the negro's testimony Attor-
ney Barco made short statement to the
Court, saying that Judge Rydon M. Call,
Federal Judge for the Southern District of
Florida, recently held in a case involving
a boat that where the owner of the craft
has entrusted its movements to another he
1.-THE owner) cannot be held liable In case
liquor is found aboard
II you think of a private railroad car as
"land yacht" and the porter as the cap
tain. why then, following Judge Calls rea-
soning, the owner of the car cannot be
punished for what his porter does. How
could the owner be expected to know about
such a trivial detail as that $4,000 worth
of hootch which the porter happened to
pick up somewhere and put on board?
The present case, Attorney Barco argued
to the Judge, was parallel in every import
ant point, and, following the ruling of the
Judge. Mr.. Black should be discharged.
Gentlemen" began Commissioner Gra-
ham, Gin view Of the fact that Mr.. Black
knew nothing Of this liquor being placed
aboard his car, l can see no reason for
holding him, and l hereby discharge him
from the custody of the Federal Govern
ment II these prohibition people want to
take the matter up before grand jury
they are welcome to do So"
And so the case before the Federal
authorities was concluded. Mr. Black got
his car back, but he, or his porter, or
somebody, lost to the Government sixty
cases Of whiskey, valued at $4,000. That
much seems to be certain.
But II was not yet the end. The
Florida authorities seemed peeved at the
way the Federal officials let the case CO.
They arrested Mr.. Black and the two
negroes all over again and fined them each
$500. which Mr. Black paid.
But that was not all. They seized the
100000 car. and are going to proceed
further before the local Grand Jury and no
one knows what the final chapter will be.

taker, Hardie Taylor. But the door was
was no answer.
So they broke in a window and entered.
There in one corner OF the room was a
great pile of whiskey bottles-filled with
what purported to be very high grade of
the once popular beverage-enough to
make approximately five cases.
Just about this time in came Hardie, a
little scared and shaking. mo sab, boss,
All doesn't know nothin' about this liquor
tall. Use just come home from town and
1t want here when left" he declared But
the handouts were slipped on him and
with the liquor the party departed for the
police station.
The officers didn't need anyone to tell
them where to look for the destination of
the automobile and truck, presumably
loaded with liquor. They knew the lot be-
longed to Harry Black and they knew
that Harry Blacks palatial private car,
'"Bayview," was standing over by the rail-
road station.
When they arrived at the car It was
nearly midnight. After some pounding they
aroused the negro porter, j. r. Mandley
1t took but few minutes to locate the
liquor. Stored carefully away in one end
of the car were ten cases of whiskey. But
they continued their search and opened
every cupboard until they came to COM
partment in the centre of the car which
was locked
"Mr. Black has the key to that. I can't
open IT," said Mandley, who is porter and
steward OF the car and buys the supplies
for the colored cook.
So, for the time, the officers left the car,
taking with them the liquor and the porter.
who was promptly placed with Hardie
Taylor In the town calaboose
Now, Policeman Amos is somewhat new
at his Job He didn't like to take the re-
sponsibility Of breaking into anything in
that elegant car, so he decided to 20 to
Miami and get little higher authority.
He went after Warren Brelinger, we'll
known prohibition enforcement agent.
He heard the call of duty and the two
returned to the car where Brelinger raised
an axe and started to break in the door of
the secret compartment
Here, doan do that" shouted the negro
porter, who had been brought back from
jail for purpose. I'll open It," And he
produced the key.

reasonably hope to live at least another
twenty years At the rate of consumption
Of LAO bottles per year Mr. Black must
have somewhere supply of 2S,S0O bottles
or 489,600 drinks to carry him through into
the next world.
But the Florida enforcement officers
have different belief. Did the sixty
cases Of liquor which the prohibition
officers seized come to- this country at
night by boat from some wicked place
where there are no prohibition laws?
How the genial financier fell into the
clutches of the law is an interesting story.
He has been making Miami his Winter
home for many years. Harry Black knows
Miami, and Cocoanut Grove, and all OF
South Florida, for that matter like a ma
tive. He loves Miami and it's balmy Win
ter days. and he intends, so he declared
after his trial last week, that he will soon
build permanent Winter home on the
shores of Biscayne Bay, on site which he
owns and has owned for some time.
Forty miles off shore of Miami Is
Bimini Island, the nearest of the British
Bahama group, and developed in a years
time from an almost uninhabited spot to
great liquor wholesale centre Boats
ply back and forth from Bimini to the
Florida coast, landing almost at will in the
darkness among the palms and mangroves
Of the bay shore.
So, as Cocoanut Grove people were TAX
Ing little air last Wednesday night be-
fore retiring some Of them saw boat pull
up to the little dock which protrudes into
the water short distance from the shore
line of Harry st. Francis Blacks future
home site. Such boat landing is not an
uncommon sight, but people took mental
note of It.
An hour later James Conrad, watchman
Of the estates of Arthur Curtiss James and
w. ]. Matheson, wellknown millionaires
OF New York and acquaintances of Mr..
Black, saw an automobile and truck, load
: ed with something or other, drive out of
the gate leading to the Black home site
and turn off down the road to the railroad
station OF the town.
As a good citizen Conrad lost no time in
notifying the Cocoanut Grove Police Head
quarters, and Officers o. l.. Kennedy and
w. K. Amos were dispatched to the late
scene of action. They found no boat-if
there had been one It had slipped away un-
der cover Of the darkness. They attempt
ed to enter a small shack on the premises,
known to be the home of the negro care
