the building being in a block owned
by the Treasury Department.
Mary Costellina, who lives at the
foregoing number, was placed under
arrest charged with violating the
law. but the officials were at loss as
to how they should proceed with that
part of the statute which makes the
owner of real property responsible
for liquor sold on the premises.
Facetious suggestions were made
that the Secretary of the Treasury
was responsible for what went on in
property under his control. but the
prohibition officers have not yet de-
cided to bring their chief into court.
