s'Liquor Riot at Washington
Blo,pn Out to Sea BY Radio
Homeric Passengers ALI Excited Over .sLooting
of Whisky Near White House" Until They
Learn Their s'News Is News to Whole of u. >.

Passengers arriving here yesterday
on the White Star liner Eomeric were
profoundly interested In obtaining sd-
ditional information to supplement- a
report they received last Tuesday by
wireless telling of "liquor rioting in
Washington" The passengers instead
of being interviewed willingly on the
situation abroad insisted upon interro-
eating the reporters on this Important
item of news which appeared in THE
Ocean Times" daily bulletin printed
on the ship.
washington reports the dispatch
read, "after looting liquor and guam
tity Of whisky at midnight on Satur-
day, mob OF 1000 started rioting 200
yards from the White House. Eighty
six were arrested"
The radio operators OF the Homeric
said they received the message from
the usual source of their radio news,
and it was printed without doubt as to
it's authenticity. The White Star Line
officials said they knew Of no such
message being sent to the liner, and
the Radio Corporation of America,
which broadcasts news nightly to ships
at sea, declared through an official
that the Washington report was not
incorporated In any Of their dis-
patches.
It was explained at the Radio Cor
poration that in oil probability the
message had become garbied and that
the operators on the Homeric received
only parts Of reports being forwarded
from different stations simultaneously
Another explanation was that some
amateur might have sent out the re-
r,prS hoay
IN Mrs. William X. Vanderbilt was
among the passengers arriving on the
Homeric after a six months visit IN
France. When she left the liner at
the pier, at West Nineteenth Street,
she was met by whitney Warren, archi-
ect, who assisted in facilitating her
baggage examination. She went direct
to her home in Sutton Place, taking
two Pekinese dogs she brought with
her.
William J. Potter, president, and
Stuart H. Patterson, comptroller of the
Guaranty Trust Company, were also
among the passengers. They passed
six weeks abroad. MIR. Potter, who was
in Germany part of the time, painted
gloomy picture of that country's
future.

my mind the question now raised is
distinctly larger than the question of

democracy can make good. If heavily

Hearing on Dry Ships
Urges Need of Aduance Of
Cases on Supreme Court
Calendar for Benefit of AU

From Th. Trtbuncs Wasn,~oson Bureau
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.--In the Su-
preme Court Of the United States to-
day George ". Wickersham. former
Attorney General. filed motion to ad-
vance the controversy over "sea stores
of foreign steamships" This is the
dispute involving liqaor on foreign
steamships within the three-niile limit
which is carried\as sea stores intended
for use Of passengers and crew on
these vessels outside the territorial
waters Of the United States.
Mr.. Wickersham's motion is filed in
the case of the Cunard Steamship Com
pany, Ltd, and the Anchor Line, Ltd,
appellants, versus Secretary OF the
Treasury Mellon ct al, and also in
the nine other cases arising out of this
controversy In all the cases there Is
an appeal to the Supreme Court of
the United States from the decision
OF Judge Hand, Of the Federal District
Court FOR the Southern District Of New
York.
The motion to advance will be sub
mitted to the court Monday, November
13, when it convenes. again, or as soon
thereafter as possible. No advanced
date Is asked in the motion. 1t is the
understanding the steamship companies
want the date fixed for November 90
or soon afterward, and 1t is generally
expected the court will comply in view
of the Importance of the matter.
In connection with the notion, Mr.
Wickersham made brief statement
in support Of il, but has not thus fsr
filed an extended brief. Mr.. Wicker
sham holds the ruling of the court be-
low ais contrary TO the opinion of q
previous Attorney General and to ex-
listing regulations Of the Secretary of
the Treasury
After referring to the fact the lower
court dismissed the bills of complaint
Of the foreign steamship companies
Mr.. Wickersham said:
accomplishments are foreign corpora
! tions and their vessels ali fly foreign
| flags and are owned and registered in
| foreign countrjes.aq4-e,sa So
| "The bills OF complaint were filed to
restrain the threatened acts of the de-
| fGndants to make and carry out orders
! following an opinion Of the Attorney
/ General of the United States, which
| held that foreign vessels were violat.
| ing the provisions of the Eighteenth
Amendment and the national prohibi-
tioo act by keeping on board while in
territorial waters of the United States
sea stores including Intoxicating
| liquors intended for ute by passen-
gers and crew without the jurisdiction
of this country.
"This ruling is contrary to the opin-
ion Of previoaus Attorney General
and to existing regulations Of the Sec.
retary of the Treasury.
"The decision of the District Court
from which this appeal is taken, af.
fects all foreign vessels of every ma
ton touching at ports of the United
States"
An early hearing is asked in the pub
lie interest as we'll as in the interest
Of the foreign steamship lines.
