PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 20.-Twenty-
FIVE million dollars worth of liquor has
been withdrawn from distilleries
throughout the country, it was learned
to-day, on permits issued from the
Office of William c. Mcconnell. state
enforcement director here. Warrants
for the arrest of two former employees
IN that office, on charges of conspiracy
TO defraud the government, were issued
after evidence of the supposed con-
spiracy had been unearthed at hear
ing OF six men held on bootlegging
charges.
The men sought are A. F. Slater, for
mer secretary to Mr.. Mcconnell and
self-styled assistant director of en-
forcement, and Hiram Wilson Renner.
chief of the permit division. United
States marshals have been unable to
find the men,
Hellet was expressed by the authori-
ties that the amount of liquor released
may reach the $4,000, 900 mark. At
the bootlegging hearing to-day McCon-
nell said that he did not know any
withdrawal permits had been issued.
Later he admitted that he had been
negligent and derelict" in his duties,
ana report was circulated that he
would resign as a consequence of this
scandal.
Harvey Duncan, prohibition official
who came here last week to help mop
up the state, dismissed Slater and Ben
ner from the service as soon as he
found out that they were issuing with
drawal permits indiscriminately. Some
of the permits they issued were said
to be queer"
Shortly after Slater and Benner had
been removed from office government
officers arrested Samuel Singer, fire.

arrested and arraigned before United

Federal Building and were held under
bail for further hearing before Com

After the hearing Mr.. Mcconnell
said that he did not believe that such

that Slater and Benner would do such

Lost Bride-Elect Found;

Girl Who Vanished Few DAYS

Helen Lyons, twenty-five years old,
who took her wedding dress and left
her parents residence Tuesday, week
before the day set for her wedding,
returned last night to her home, 637
Seventy fourth Street, Brooklyn, ac-
companied by her parents, MIR. and
Mrs. Dennis Lyons.
They refused to say where the young
woman had been or how they had
found her. They were too happy to
talk they said
1t is thought that they may have
traced her through letter which they
received from her earlier in the day.
In it Miss Lyons said that she felt
she was not wanted at home and that
she was going to change her name and
disappear forever from her family.
Friends of the family were of the
opinion that the young woman left
home in a fit of vexation because the
date of her wedding had been post
poned several times at the suggestion,
it is said, of her parents. She is en-

very small number Of seeds, II any.
Both in spring and in fall the leaves
are injured by the least touch Of frost,
and a heavy frost is always fatal. The
cowpea withstands moderate shade
sufficiently well to be valuable YIN
orchards. In heavy shade the plants
are usually much attacked by mildew.
The cowpea succeeds on practically
all types OF soil. It does apparently
quite as well on. sandy soils as on
heavy CLAWS. but will do better than
clover or alfalfa on thin soils or soils
that are poor In lime. No other
legume can be grown SO successfully
and on such a variety Of soils under
adverse conditions as the cowpea. A
very rich soil is not conducive to, the
best results with this crop. On such
soil an abundant vine growth Is
produced, while the yield Of grain IL
small. Poor soils will produce little
growth of vine. but will generally
yield a good proportion Of seed. Clay
soils WILL not produce heavy yield
the first year, but the crop will sue
coed much better the second season.
/ It may be said that the cowpea will
do hest on good corn land. but will
thrive on all types Of soil that are
well drained, properly inoculated, and
moderately rich.
