. CEASES. TO RUN
list MIDNIGHT
Courts Order Suspend
ing Operations Is
Y Effective
may Be LEGAL FIGHT
This Will Come Over an an
Effort to Take Up
Rails

Effective at midnight last night all
Operations of the Ockalaha Valley
railroad ceased under an order is
sued by Circuit Judge W. H. Bullock
at Ocala last week, directed to Re-
ceiver A. Christensen. Whether this
means the final abandonment of the
road or not remains to be seen. 4
1t is not believe dthat junking the
road will bring any return to the
bond holders, as taxes for two years,
amounting t approximately 5000
and receivers certificates issued this
year amounting to $19,365 will have
to be paid first, and it is not believed
that the rail and equipment will net
much over this amount, as the cost
of taking up the rail and delivering
it to designated fob. point would
be considerable.
The state will exact the payment
of taxes before any Of the property
lis moved, and in the event this
amount is not forthcoming the road
would then be sold at sheriff's sale,
all of the amount above the taxes
due. OF the receivers certificates is
sued the Rodman Lumber company
holds $14,365 and the Wilson Cypress
company $4,000. These certificates
were purchased in order that the
road might pay its taxes this year
and continue operating. Under the
courts order they will take prece-
dence over all other indebtedness.
With the suspension of the road
the Rodman Lumber company will be
practically bottled up. DIR. L, w.
Warren, one of the trustees named by
the creditors, stated that unless the
mill at Rodman can be sold in the
next few days that it will be dis
mantled and sold by piece-meal. If
this is done another problem will
confront the company-that of NOV
ing the material after it is sold.
1t has been evident since the VIII
son Cypress company and the Rod
man Lumber company discontinued
hauling their logs over the road that
it could not operate and meet ex-
penses. The amount of freight de-
veloped along the line is infinitesimal'
and practically no through freight is
offered. The principal reason for
this latter condition is that the road
has no connection agreements, and
that the roadbed and rolling stock is
in such bad condition that some roads
declined to turn freight over to it
without a proper bond, it is said.
Some time ago it was known that a
plan was developing to. consolidate
the Palatka-Jacksonville Steamboat
Line with the Ocklawaha Valley rail
way, but this deal seems to have fall
en- through, although it was stated
in well informed circles today that in
the event the road can be secured at
a reasonable price under present con-
ditions it may yet be consummated.

New York. Dec. 3Oe-With the
sub-chaser Hensen, federal dry navy,
of the port OF New York, tied up at
the Battery with engines disabled,
the Narrows was left hnguarded to-
night long enough for fifteen rum
runners to ship ifto port with nearly
$7,000,0O0 worth of liquor for New
Years, the police department was
advised.
The fifteen liquor vessels are be-
lieved by prohibition officials to have
aboard at least $4,000 cases Of
liquor. They represent only part
of the fleet of rum-laden craft which
since a few days before Christmas
had been laying outside the three
mile limit, awaiting opportunity to
run the gauntlet.
Federal Prohibition Zone Chief Ap-
pleby was amazed when he learned
tina tthe Hensen, flagship of his
"dry fleet" was tied ,up at her pier.
II thought she was. out patrolline
the Narrows," he explained.
Someone Fixed 1t?
Appleby Immediately got in touch
with Captain John H. Drysart, COM
mander of the HANSEN. 1t developed
that a mysterious order had been re
ceived on the Hansen to have her
engines repaired, but TIE authority
for the order could not be learned
The rum-chaser then went to her
dock and her engines were taken
down.
All this followed discovery in the
crews quarters Of the Hansen today
of 20 cases Of liquor alleged to have
been part of cargo of 70 cases
seized on the schooner Lennie Bell
several days ago.
When Appleby told Captain Dry
sart that since the Hansen had dock
ed under her own power, she should
put to see at once to watch the liquor
smugglers, he was informed the en-
gine was dismantled. Besides, said
Captain Drysart, the removal OF
members of his crew. in connection
with the 20 cases had left him too
short rt-handed to start on patrol.
With the Hansen out of the way
Appleby tonight endeavored to press
every available small boat into serv-
ice to head off the blockade runners.
