BOOZE SQUAD
CATCH THREE
enforcement Agents in Dis
guise SWoop Down on
TottenviIIe Yesterday.

rOTTENVILLE, March 29-Pro-
.ii&ition enforcement agents believed
TO have been part of Ley Einstein'S
fying squadron swooped down on
Staten Island yesterday and sue
ceeded in rounding up several viola
tors of the prohibition law. Three
made their appearance i'm Totem
vile about . o'clock yesterday morn
Ing and within a short time it is
said they caught three mapping.
All three agents were disguised as
working men. the first one being at
tired as a chauffeur or automobile
mechanic. Entering a place they
would ask where the telephone was
and make themselves generally
familiar. When confidence was gair-
ed they asked for a drink and got it.
A summons was handed out in each
case for the appearance of the dis
pensers IN federal court in Brooklyn
today.
The places in Tottenville where a
summons was left was at the Ferry
Hotel, near the ferry, operated by
Walter Moffatt; Hotel Brunswick,
Main street, owned by Patrick Hard
ing, and the Riverside Hotel in
Arthur Kill road, owned by Louis
Vogel. Several places on the north
and asst shores of the island are
a to have been caught in the net.
When it became known that the
enforcement agents were in town
there was a general scurrying, it is
said, to get under cover by those
whose places had not yet been visit
ed by the agents. The lid was then
clamped down tight and it is said
that last night it would have taken
a good sized crowbar to have pried
open any place in town for a bird to
even wet its whistle.
