FINDS SEIZED LIQUOR
NOTHING BUT FAKE
u. s. Chemist Says 80 Per Cent.
of Stocks Taken in Raids Is
a Synthetic Mixture.
GIN LATEST CONCOCTION
Booze Mixers Extend Opera
tions After Finding Imita-
tion Whiskey Is Accepted.

Ninety per cent. Of the liquor seized
by Federal enforcement raiders in this
city has not been real liquor at all. but
synthetic mixture of alcohol, water
and coloring.
r. A. Edison, chief chemist of the
Federal laboratories with offices IN the
Federal Building. made that disclosure
yesterday in explaining the methods by
which the percentage of alcohol is COM
puted from the samples OF seized
"hooch" brought in. The smell OF nom
genuine whiskey is quite noticeable,
Mr. Edison said, as it has raw alcohol
odor from which whiskey Is free. no
matter of what quality.
The Synthetic booze mixers, having
attained success in doping whiskey.
Mr. Edison said, ARE now putting our
through the bootleggers a synthetic
gin, for which the formula Is alcohol,
water and oil of juniper.
But the juniper flavor is ranker than
genuine GIN" said Mr.. Edison, "and
don't think any one gets much pleasure
from drinking such stuff. The bootleg
gers usually put in too much oil Of
juniper"
As to tho kick in the bootlegger
brand Of stocks. Mr.. Edison finds the al
cohol percentage in the seized stun
ranged from 40 to so per cent. In some
Of the Scotch whiskey seized small guam
titles Of creosote were found.
The determination of the alcohol con-
tent of the seized liquor is made by we'll
known laboratory methods. larger sam
pies being tested by hydrometer which
measures the specific gravity OF the
liquid being tested when dropped into
the fluid. Alcohol being lighter than
water, the hydrometer sinks further in
il, and the amount of alcohol can be
guaged by the distance to which the hy-
drometer falls, comparing it with the
same volume of water.
For rapid work on beer and wine with
small per centages Of alcohol an ebulli-
ometer is used. The liquid is heated
and the boiling point ascertained. A
mixture Of water and alcohol boils at
lower temperature than water. Some
times for small samples of liquor a
pycnometer is used, which measures the
weight of the liquid. and by comparison
with the weight Of water. the content of
alcohol can be determined. A test 10
also made to determine whether the
color of the fluid is genuine.
Mr.. Edison said that the Government
tested Chinese wine to determine If it
was suitable for consumption. suspicion
being aroused by the ill-smellng odor
1t was found. however, that the wine
was made from rice spirits and decoc-
tion of herbs, and it's importation was
permitted for medicinal purposes.

Passes New-Lenroot Bill Linn
iting Strength to
10000 Men.

In the face Of vigorous opposition
from Secretary Of War Baker and
Gen. Pershing, the Senate yesterday
passed the New resolution, with the
amendment presented by Senator
Lenroot, of Wisconsin, reducing the
army to 10000.
The vote was taken shortly after
the Secretary and Gen. Pershing had
left a hearing Of the Senate Com
mittee on Military Affairs where
they had protected the enactment
of the bill.
Reduction below 100000 was op-
posed by Gen. Pershing as inadNl-
sable at this time because of world
conditions" while Secretary Baker
asserted that certainly the army
should not be reduced below l7S,-

The Lenroot amendment orders re-
cruiting stopped until the army
reaches 10000.
The Senate also adopted an
amendment by Wadsworth permit

as to equalize the distribution OF

ALLEGED SWINDLE
in GERMAN MARKS
DUG UP In BOSTON
Authorities Say Victims
Have Sustained Loss
Of $5,OOO,OOO.

BOSTON, Jan. IA rigid and
thorough investigation into the mil
lion dollar German mark swindle,
in which thousands of credulous in
vestors throughout the country have
been robbed, has been ordered by
Assistant Attorney General Albert
HurwitZ of Massachusetts.
This latest get-rich-quIc scheme,
which promises to affect far more
investors and involve much more
money than the lannon's Ponzi plan,
was brought to light today by the
arrest of three Massachusetts, men
connected with the firm of Roths-
child d-CampbelI%Company,> Ltd, for
eign exchange brokers.
Already Investigators of the State
Department are on the TRAN of one
group of workers in the scheme,
who manufactured counterfeit
marks in New York, and passed
them around as legitimate. Like
all the great swindles the big appeal
was made to the poorer classes. the
people with a few pennies saved and
desire to. make real money.
The mark was represented as sure
to rise in value. Options were sold
at 2 cents, and buyers of these
options were to clean up at any
time the value of the market went
above cents.
4 legitimate business in marks
has been done by many of the large
brokerage firms, but the invasion
of the swindlers and counterfeiters
into the game has wrecked the mar
ket.
Those who purchased the fraudu-
lent options have no comeback
whatever.
Attorney HurwitZ estimates that
at least $4,000, 1000 has been stolen
from the credulous.
