LIQUORS SEIZED

Last Friday and Saturday
Deputy Collectors Foster and
Jefts of the Customs force dis
covered liquors in two cars of
lathes and shingles shipped
from Montreal and consigned
to parties in Boston. The cars
were unloaded and each car
found to contain three hundred
cases of whiskey. There were
fcur hundred cases of Scotch
whiskey and two hundred cas-
es of Kentucky whiskey, and
the value of the cargo deliver
ed in Boston would have total
ed over seventy-five Thousand
dollars. This is the largest
single consignment ever seized
on the Canadian border. The
goods were cleverly camou-
tiaged. The doors of the cars
being packed solid with laths
or shingles and the whiskey
cases were enclosed in ordinary
packing cases and buried und-
er the lathe and shingle. Fed.
erai agents are at work on the
case, and it is expected arrests
will follow.
