CHAMPION RESUMES TRAINING

GREAT FALLS, Mont, June "a
CBy The Associated Press)-After a
days rest Jack Dempsey is scheduled
to SUI his training today in
preparation for the defense of his
title against Tommy Gibbons at
Shelby July a.. Jack Eea-ns, man
ager of the heavyweight champion.
said that Dempsey probably would
work out without interruption until
three days before the contest. when
he will drop all work with the gloves
and do only light training to keep in
condition.
There was no workout at the cham
pion's camp yesterday due to the via
lent hail storm which crippled the
electric light system. shutting off all
power. a fire roared i'm the fire place
at tho training quarters and Demp.
sey spent the afternoon playing cards
and listening TO the photograph.
The champion was not able to do
any road work during the morning
as the mud was ankle deep.
Kearns was indignant because of
certain stories which had been sent
put from here. giving the impression
that the champion was not in condl-
uon to meet Gibbons. Dempsey is
In great shape and is better right now

Otto caught up and had Tanning in a

BONTON DANCE, DINE AND
DINNER CLUB" N. Y, RAIDED

Prohibition agents carly in the
morning OF Aprle 8 raided an ornate
and exclusive dance and dine and
drink club in New York City. The
club was conducted for wealthy pa
irons exclusively and had built up
volume of business which surprised
the police and the prohibition depart
ment.
At the time OF the raid 200 men and
women in evening. dress were in the
place and the names of each were taken
and are now in the possession of Chief
Zone Enforcement Agent Merrick. 1t
is said that the names include many
wealthy and socially prominent per-
sons.
In the basement OF the clubhouse
the agents found the service bar and
lockers and from these they seized
20 cases OF whisky besides a quantity
of champagne and other wines and
cordials. The entire working staff of
the establishment were placed under
arrest.

GREATEST coSTLIEST BOOZE
CATCH YET MADE IN N. Y.

Fifteen thousand cases OF imported
wines and liquors valued at two mil
lion dollars and said to be the entire
importation since November of one
ring of liquor runners, were seized
April 7 in New York City.
The seizure is declared by Zone
Chief Merrick to be the biggest and
most valuable yet made in New York.
There were more than a thousand
cases OF champagncs and all the goods
were genuine liquors of foreign manu-
facturc.
Some of the cordials found in the
warehouse were manufactured in mon
astcries in Europe and the WHISTLES
were OF the best known domestic
Scotch and Irish brands. 1t took four
big trucks all day and part of the night
to remove the seizure. Besides the
WHISTLES and wine there were rare malt
beverages from Holland and Germany
and liquors from the Orient.
1t is said the prohibition department
has evidence which not only resulted
in this seizure but will prove the ex-
istence of at least one international
liquor smuggling pool.

DRY AGENTS BESIEGED
BY PITTSBURGH HOODLUMS

Trapped in a Pittsburgh saloon and
besieged by huge crowd, four fed
eral prohibition agents on April 9 were
threatened with bodily injuries until
rescued by two squads of reserve
police which responded to a riot call
and dispersed the mob. When the
word was passed out that the dry
agents were in the saloon mob
quickly gathered. Many of these de-
tenders of the booze dispensary came
hatless and coatlcss. 1t must have
been an inspiring sight, these loyal ex-
ponents of personal liberty rushing to
the attack of federal officers in the
performance of their duty.
And the name of the rcd blooded,
hundred per cent American who was
operating the grog shop where the
agents were besiegcd and where the
agents seized whisky and small
quantity of wine and nine cases and
four barrels OF beer, is A. j. Hadjuk.

BOOZE TRAGEDY STAGED
OFF MASSACHUSETTS COAST

A tragedy of the rum running fleet
was disclosed on April J, says Vine
yard Haven, Mass, dispatch i'll the
New York Herald, when the bodies Of
eight of the crew Of the sunkcn steam
ship John Dwight were found floating
in Vineyard Sound with barrels OF
bottled ale. The steamship which
sank within sight OF the Cuttyhunk
coast guards on April E was believed
to have been damaged by collision
with another vessel Whether the
second ship was sunk was in doubt
but lacking wreckagc other than that
of the John Dwight coast guards and
the fishermen who found the bodies
believed only one craft went down.
All indications were that the John
Dwight carried the contraband cargo
but the suggestion was made on some
sides that the bottled ale constituted
the deck load of the second vessel
which was torn loose in the collision.

N. Y. RUM RUNNERS HURL
CAPTOR OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

The United States revenue cutter
Manhattan went twelve miles out to
sea on the night of April and seized
motor driven bootleg ship, says a
special dispatch in the Chicago Tri-
bune. While the cutter got the
smaller craft safely into New York
harbor, two men of the rum crew who
sought refuge on the deck of large
British whisky yacht but had been
surrendered by the British, escaped at
the battery pier by dumping the Man
haitian skipper into the harbor. When
the cutter had almost reached the
barge pier one of the crew fell over
board.
Captain Michael Ryan who was on
deck with his two prisoners, asked
them to help him save the man in the
water. They said they would and
suggested he go over the side and
they would hold his feet. For a
second or two Ryan hung over the
side of the pier cropping in the water
for the man who had fallen in. Ac-
cording to Captain Ryan, he suddenly
found himself diving for the bottom
head first. The two prisoners had
gone.
