Burglars Steal
Liquor Held in
Federal Office
Use Master Key in Entering
Government Building and
= Take 200 Bottles of Evil
dence Left for Analysis
Eluded Armed Guards
Bootleggers Are Believed
:. to Have Committed Theft
to Hamper Prosecutions

Burglars, who used master key and
left evidence Of being adopts at crimi-
nal craft, entered the government
chemical laboratory, on the fifth floor
Of the Federal building, some time be-
tween / o'clock Saturday afternoon and
Q O'Clock yesterday morning and stole
several hundred bottles from 1000
samples of liquor case evidence left
for analysis. The burglary is the cul-
mination of long series Of petty
crimes committed in the government
building, mono of which has been
solved.
In announcing the theft the custo-
dian of the building expressed the be-
lief that bootleggers or their confed-
crates had committed the crime. The
bottles were all labeled and sealed by
government order, and it is crime for
any one to break these seals unless
authorized to do so. 1t will be neces-
sary to check carefully the evidence
stolen and left behind to see just what
prosecutions will be hampered by the
disappearance of the evidence. Among
the samples stolen were some of the
choicest whisky and worst hootch that
has been garnered by prohibition
agents. Missing are about 200 small
nasks, part Of which was evidence
taken at the time of the raid on Jack s
restaurant.
That the robbery might have been
committed by some one having access
TO the building during the weekend
holiday has not been overlooked by the
detectives, but as q glass panel door,
completely removed from an inner door,
and in an expert manner, 1t Is believed
that bootleggers were behind the crime.
How the providers eluded armed guards
stationed in the building is mystery.
The burglary was discovered when
Chemist Robert A. Edison reported for
duty yesterday morning. He immedi-
ateiy reported the case to Assistant
United States Attorney Cashin. Chief
Hugh McQuillan, of the Special Intel
ligence Unit of the Revenue Depart
ment, was called into conference and
his detectives were put to work on the
case.
Since the enactment Of tho Volstead
law the building, particularly the third
floor, whore liquor cases are tried IN
the Federal District Court rooms, has
been overrun with crowds OF rough
characters, many of them alleged TO be
agents, representatives and "hxers' for
bootleg Cheques.
Some months ago McQuillsn was
called upon to clear this floor of@extor-
sionists, who were acting evidently for
alleged criminal prohibition agents
since removed. These "fxers" would
meet persons summonsed to appeal. for
liouorr violations and would buy back
the summonses from them for sums OF
from $50 to 5000.

Eighteen little victims Of the Ar

con in Hotel Martinique yesterday.
This did not impress them nearly as

for the privilege Of calling themselves
godfathers to their orphan guests.

Just as they were sitting down in

Each youngster was hoisted into q

scurried around with enormous nil
lows to give them chance to see over
the high table, and napkins were
fastened around their necks by in

childish trebles called for assistance

Peter Rabbit was prisoner in a
wire pen inside Farmer Browns hem
yard. 1t was not only the loss of free
dom that made Peter feel badly. hut
also sense of shame. Peter was
ashamed to think that he had been
caught. He didn't want any of his
trends to know that he had been so
careless. So for the first few days
Peter kept inside the box which had
been put there for him, and SO was
out of sight. He came out only at
night.
But there are sharp eyes among
the little people of the Green Forest,
the Old Orchard and the Green Mea-
dows, and there is little that escapes
them. NO eyes are sharper than
those of Sammy Jay. Every day
Sammy visits the Old Orchard and
Farmer Browns dooryard. Of course.
he saw that wire pen in the henvard
and wondered what it was for. The
next morning he was there bright
and early. At once he saw the holes
Peter had dug trying to get out.
Hal" exclaimed Sammy. "Some-
body, is prisoner in there, and that
somebody is one who can dig. Now I
wonder who it can be-. wonder if
Johnny Chuck or one of his children
has been caught by Farmer Browns
Boy. Probably it is one of his
children. Johnny is too smart to be
caught. I'll have to keep an eye on
this. certainly will"
Straight from Farmer Browns
over, to the dear Old Briar-patch
flew Sammy. He knew that johnny
Chuck was living there. Sammy
didn't say anything; he simply sat
quietly in little tree in the middle
of the Old Briar-patch. All the time
he was looking everywhere. He saw
Johnny and Polly Chuck. He saw
the four young Chucks. He knew
that Johnny and Polly had only four
children. Sammy scratched his head.
He was puzzled. Somehow it always
helps him to think better when he's pug
zled if he scratches his head He saw
Mrs. Peter and he saw her FIVE little
Dummies. but he didn't see Peter; still
this was nothing strange Peter was
often away from the dear Old Briar-
patch as Sammy we'll knew. So
Sammy didn't give Peter another
thought.
The remainder Of that day Sammy
Jay spent where he could watch that

only hint of embarrassment displayed
was when their nurse asked them to
