night this week when the officers were
going thru No. 10S on the 500 Line.
They had passed thru the coaches and
were about to leave when one Of them
entered the smoking compartment Of
a sleeper occupied by a single indi-
vidual, a large man sound asleep with
his feet upon the long settee across
one end of the room. The officer had
a hunch and luckily pushed the fell

found three suit cases, each filled with
eleven bottles of King George the
