Poor Fish IN Riuer Get Liquor;
Those ashore Get Only Smell
Police Conduct $4,000 Wake at Houston Street
Sewer and Volsicad Evidence Goes Down to Sea /;
News Vendor Salvages Hat Of Wine ;Stars in Films

II a gIazed-eyed sea monster should
appear ut Coney Island to-day, or IL
thousands Of fish should fail to attend
school Us usual. the cause can be traced
to Houston and Sheriff streets, Man
haitian. where police yesterday poured
cohol into sewer which drains into
the East River.
The destruction of the liquor, which
represented the contraband seized in
twenty seven cases of volstead act vio-
lation, was ordered by Judge Alfred NJ.
Talley. 1t was mixed consignment,
contained in fifteen barrels, 275 bottles,
ten five-gallon cans. several casks,
demiiohns and Jugs.
That doubt of its destruction would
be removed forever, First Deputy Po-
lice Commissioner John A. Leach, in
ment, selected the middle of the after
noon and the middle of the street as
the time and place of the funeral.
Big Crowd at "Wake"
A big crowd was in attendance, and
this was augmented by hundreds of
school children who congregated when
school nearby was dismissed.
There were some tears, many jeers
and q few cheers as the police lifted
the cover of manhole and began
knocking in the heads of barrels and
pulling the corks of bottles. Soon a
miniature alcoholic Niagara began to
gurgle into the sewer and an ambrosial
odor to permeate the atmosphere.
The following officiated at the fu-
neral: First Deputy Commissioner
Leach, funeral director; Property Clerk
J. A. Murray, chief usher; pallbearers,
Inspector William A. Coleman, 1st In
spection District, and Captain Archi-
bald Mcneil, of the 18th Precinct.

true and she also complains that now
in her penniless condition, she is
asked to leave her rooms, although
her agreement with the church pro-
vided she was to have the use of the
rooms for life.
She has received notice from the
clerk of the vestry to vacate her quar-
ters and the congregation of the
church has been split into two factions
on the matter.
Those who side with Mrs. Heffron
who says she has worked faithfully for
the church sixteen years without com
pensation, are using their influence to
keep the venerable worker in her home
while other members stand with the
corporation,
Before Mrs. Heffron brought he1
suit all the circumstances in her case
were placed before Bishop William T
Manning, in writing, but he made no
reply and, SO far as is known, took no
part in the CONTROVERSY

professional mourners and kept the
thirsty crowd back
Funeral Director Leach took sledge
hammer and smashed in the head OF
the arst barrel The crowd began to
sniff scyausly. and Ell Luskowitz, Of
476 Miller Avenue, Brooklyn, news
dealer rushed through the line of
poiice. He got his hat under the CUR
Cling LIQUID and soon had hat full Of
wine, which he drank while the motion
picture cameras reeled merrily and
while the police tried to push him back
into line. 1t was Luskowitz's first APP
pearance In the movies, but not his
last. for when his hat full of wine got
to working he tried repeatedly to get
back into the picture, where he desired
TO do a classical dance.
Volunteer Mourners Suppressed
Others who had been standing nea,
enough to the manhole to get sniff
of the fumes Of the bottled in bone
Kentucky whisky, which was emptied
desired to join in the frolic before the
cameras, but they were suppressed BY
the uniformed. professional mourners
who announced, "This is no joke"
Funeral Director Leach said that the
booze being destroyed was only a small
part Of seized liquor in police posses
sion. He pointed to the old Unior
Market police station, in which the
contraband had been stored and II
front Of which the funeral was being
held, and said: Inside there is about
S7,o0O,O00 worth of hootch. In other
places about the city we have storec
about $S,000,000 worth more.
"Some of the stuff we are destroying
to-day is deadly, and some of it, par
tic1larly the bottled in bond whisky
is what, in the old days, would have
been called good stuff We take the
best of care of seized liquors, pending
the courts decision on what disposi
tion is to be made of it. We had tc
give $4,000 worth of seized liquor
back the other day, when sacramento
wine company beat US in court"
