THE TRIALS OF A REPORTER

A gentleman of Los Angeles writes:
81 have read your writings and thought
you were a Christian and a good man.
Now that I know you have been to a
brutal prize fight 1 have no more use
for you"
The gentleman does not understand
the whole duty of man when engaged
in the newspaper business. 1t is to
see everything and describe it accu-
rately.
This reporter has seen Prado and
another French criminal guillotined,
has see Carlisle Harris and another
American doctor el%ectrocuted, re-
ported five hangings in the Tombs
Prison, New York, the first appear
ance of Woodrow Wilson addressing
Congress, national conventions, Queen
Victoria's jubilee in London, Pope
Leo's magnificent jubilee in st. Peters,
Boulanger's trip to the Chamber of
Deputies across the Seine, when he
was elected from several districts at
once in Paris, and various things.
But all this does not make your
reporter a public execntioner, Bou-
langist, or anything but a hetero-
geneous reporter. To see clearly and
describe simply is the reporters bust
ness. Providence, not the reporter,
is responsible for things seen, from a
falling sparrow to a flying comet

SHERIFF TOMLIN IN THE WHISKY
BUSINESS

Whether the general supposition
that the mysterious pirate" ship
which has been reported lately off the
South Jersey coast is merely a float
ing gin mill or not, is still an open
question. But that Atlantic City, the
modern Sodom and Gomorrah, has
been getting a large part of its ample
supply of booze by the water route to
wildwood and thence over land,
through Court House, Ocean City and
Somers Point, seems to be beyond
cavil. Since three o'clock or Tuesday
morning, however, an embargo seems
to have been laid upon the shipping,
and 1872 cases of Scotch whiskey, ORR
ginally consigned to the cafes of At
lantic City, is ripening in the vacant
cells of the women's department of
the county Jail here, and unless u
friend, the sheriff, 'loosens" up more
than he has so far, there does not
seem to be much danger of the afore-
| said Scotch" muddling the brains or
tangling the legs of anybody around
these parts.
Tuesday was Billy Hendee's last
day as Mayor of Wildwood, and with
a mental forecast that does credit to
his skill as a prophet, he concluded
that if he was " to make a name
for himself as a fighter of booze and
booze handlers it was time he got
busy. Accordingly with several of
his friends, and Richard Coney, the
well-known moving a factor at Wild
wood, he trailed the large moving
van of the Loef1er Bros. (said to be
Conveys strongest competitor in the
hauling business) from the Fish fac
tory on the Wildwood road to the
Ocean City ~drawbridge, where the
Loef1ers, father and son, were ar
rested at the point of the pistol, and
| compelled to turf around and run the
van back to Court House.
Enter Sheriff TOmlin
Meanwhile Sheriff Tomlin had been
| called from his slumbers by tele-
phone, and was waiting at the Jail
to receive his callers. On the arrival
of the truck, it's load of fire water"
was placed in charge of former sheriff
Robert S. Miller with orders to shoot
any man who attempted to NEEDLE
with the van or it's contents. County
| Judge Eldredge was called out of bed
at his comfortable West Cape May
home and arrived at the Jail in about
half an hour. Mr.. Hendee swore to
the complaint charging George c. n
William H. Loefler with violation of
the Volstead Act, the Judge said $500
bail in each case; and Sheriff Tomlin
you take charge of the truck and
LIQUOR; release the vehicle only upon
the filing of a bond for $4,000 payable
to the State of New Jersey"
The truck was run up the driveway
to the door of the Jail kitchen and with
the aid of a half dozen men the cases
of liquor were carried to the second
story of the Jail. In all there were
252 wooden cases, tightly nailed and
strapped with iron bands. On the
top of each case was stenciled John
Walker Scotch Whiskey." On the end
of the case was stenciled zone doz.
OTIS. Of whiskey. Shipped via Nassau
N p, Bahamas, via N. Y" Cases were
s~erially numbered up to well above
5000, so that the original shipment
must have contained at least $4,000
quarts of "Scotch"-and as Surrogate
Douglass remarked, while the stuff
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1921-07-22

was being %unloaded, mot a drop to
drink"
The accused men handed the Sheriff
a $1,000 treasury note to the
bail.
At a hearing on Wednesday morn
ing, both the Loefflers plead guilty.
and Judge Eldredge deferred sentence
in the hope that their memories as tc
the ownership of the boat which
brought the booze to the fish wharf
as well as a recollection of the names
of the c~onsignees in Atlantic City
might improve.-Cape May County
Gazette.

yesterday the members found them
selves In hot water over their failure
to abide by the right of sslf-deter-

The 1rst case under dispute con-
