Sixty Cases Thrown Overheard
When Seamen Learned of
Impending Raid.

Special Dispatch to THE New YORK HERALD.
NORFOLK. Va, June 10.--Eight thou

ordered the officers and crew placed
under arrest and they are detained
under guard aboard the Sirius.
1t is said the crew of the ship dis
posed of large quantity Of the

on shore where Admiral Andrews got
the first tip that the Sirius was a
whisky laden ship.
Late last night the crew Of the Sirius
learned raid was to be made on the
ship and they succeeded in throwing
sixty cases of whisky into the Elizabeth

The Sirius arrived at the navy yard
six days ago from the West Indies. She
brought back officers and enlisted men

II is said the whisky was put on
board the Sirius in the West Indies as
cargo. 1t was not listed on the ships
manifest and Admiral Andrews says ne
does not know at wha. port the whisky
was taken on. Following the raid Col
lector of Customs Hamilton was advised
by Admiral Andrews that the whisky
had besn removed to a warehouse IN
the Navy Yard and was being held
urder guard.

October of the new crop, 20.62: De-
cember about 20.56. and next Janu-
airy deliveries to 20% cents. This
was due to further good buying by
Wall Street and Western stock and
grain traders. and a continuation
of the recent broad speculative de-
mand from local cotton operators
on more unfavorable crop reports
overnight from most sections of
Texas, Oklahoma and parts of Ar
kansas and Mississippi. Total spot
sales on the Southern markets yes
terday were about 10000 bales
and today's spot sales on the Liver
pool market went up to $4,000 bales.

On the julie lake, in the southern
Shan states, which form part of the
province of Burma, the inhabitants,
who live in dwellings built over the
lake, row their long, narrow boats with
their legs. This, says the Strand Mag
azine, is the only place in the world
where men row in this style. 1t en-
ables them to go at a good rate and to
keep up the speed for very long time
without an 'easy," for when they are
tired of rowing with their arms they
use their legs, and vice versa.
