raised 'front.' license, taxes, police
fines, cow pounds, interest on depos-
its, road tax from county and back
taxes, making grand total Of $685.

low for ten per cent off on collections

sonal property S959,9OO, total OF
! $2,839, ZOO. Twenty mills on this
basis would give $56,794, and witt

iieved will meet all requirements OF

collections of back taxes are good
to pay the interest on the Palatk;

Sensational Climax To
New York'S Greatest
BoOse Raid
SHIPS CREW BEGINS It
Raiding Party, However,
Takes Men, Dope and
Hootch Away
Dy Associated Press1

New York, Sept. 9-One of the
most spectacular drug raids New
York has ever known ended today
with the mysterious suicide of the
chief raider.
Frank j. Fitzpatrick, head mar
cotic Investigator, led thirteen agents
in gallant charge up the gang
plank of the Greek steamship King
Alexander, and engaged in hand
to hand fight n which volleys of shots
were fired, five seamen wounded,
100000 worth of drugs and whisky
seized, and nearly 1926 men aboard
the vessel rounded up for eXamina-
ton.
Fires Two ShOts in Heart
The raid over Fitzpatrick stepped
into a wash room on the Brooklyn
pier, where the King Alexander was
tied up. Two shots rang out Fitz-
patrick was found dead, both bullets
in his heart. The suicide completely
mystifed the raiding party. Their
only theory was that their chief, who
they said had been worrying over
his health, suddenly had become de-
mented in the excitement of the
! fight. Tonight they were awaiting
! the arriva lfrom Washington of Col
onel Forrer, executive assistant to
| the chief of the narcotic division of
| the Internal Revenue Bureau, order
ed to New York to make a thorough
investigation.
The raid had been elaborately
planned by Fitzpatrick. Through
stool pigeons he had arranged for
purchase of $4,000 worth of whs-
key and drugs, which were to be de-
livered through a port hole. Prelim-
mary payment of $1,000 to a ships
officer and $500 to a watchman were
alleged to have been made.
(feW Begins flrlng
Bright and early Fitzpatrick and
his agents showed up approaching
the vessel in launches, but the sus-
picions of certain members of the
crew were aroused and they opened
fire as the motorboat drew near.
Landing under fire the raiders
rushed the gang plank. The fire con-
tinued as the party jumped on to the
deck. Then the fight started
Finally reinforcements arrived, 1t
took some time to subdue those who
iresisted but at last fifteen men were
arrested on suspicion of being ring
leaders of the smuggling gang.
1t was while he was returning to
his headquarters that Fitzpatrick
startled his men by committing sui
eide. They had no warning of his
act for he seemed in high spirits af-
u ter the raid and congratulated his
men on their courage under fire.

Union Men Ask Investigation
Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 9-Investiga-
ton of the wreck here Wednesday
night of an Atlanta, Birmingham &
Atlantic railway freight train in
! which an engineer lost his life, to de-
termine if it was caused by dynamite
placed upon the track, probably will
be made by a non-partisan commits
sion as a result of a visit of union
men to Governor Hardwick today.
A delegation from the lnternation-
al Association of Machinists request
, ed such action and the governor told
them he would appoint a commission
| if the application were formally
made. The macinists drew up pc
tition tonight for presentation to-
, morrow. Col. Bugg, receiver for the
road, said he would welcome such in
= quiry.
The machinist's petition declare:
that the wreck was not caused by al
t explosive but by a defective engine
saying that investigation will show
t that one of the pony truck wheels
?. came off and because of the grea
5 speed at which the train was being
= run at the time the engine ran from
D the rails and turned over.
