FEDERAL DRY AGENTS PLAN
TO MOP UP LONG ISLAND

Federal prohibition enforcement au-
thorities are planning campaign to
mop up Long Island which it is said
has been adopted as the newest scene
of operations of rum runners plying to
and from the off-shore rum feet.
Long Island as rum runners clearing
station was brought to the attention of
the authorities by the report of a
pitched battle between eight deputy
sheriffs and some fifty or sixty rum
runners and New York gunner last
week. The deputies were finally
driven to cover, it is said, while armed
patrols conveyed a heet@of trucks with
nearly 900 cases of liquor TO New York
City.

BIG CONSIGNMENT SCOTCH"
FOR NEW YORK REPORT

Negotiations for a big consignment
of Scotch and Irish whisky believed
to be destined eventually for New
York are said to be under way, &C
cording to a New York Herald Lon
don dispatch of June 10. The story
says that at least four Americans are
reported to have come to England to
arrange the deal which is now de-
clared practically concluded.
c. G. Ammon of the Labor party
will again bring up the question of
rum running from the West Indies
and the Bahamas, the story continues.
Ammon has set down his question
which asks the government if it is
aware that exports of alcoholic liquors
from Great Britain to the Bahamas
last January alone amounted to three
million quarts miscellaneous but most
ly Scotch, whereas only u imperial
gallons of whisky, SO proof gallons
and LAP dozen quarts of whisky and
o,425 gallons of beer went out during
the whole of 1914.
Ammon further wants to know if
the government is aware this is in
tended for illicit running into the
United States" and asks what steps it
intends taking to prevent such traffic.

to raise this amount of money to place

u. S. Prob. SUCCESS SAY
HOLLAND INVESTIGATORS

N. A. deNries, member of the cabinet
OF the province of Groningue, Holland,
and P. Vandermeulcn, president of the
Dutch Association for the Abolition OF
Alcoholic Liquors, announced on June
IA that they were convinced by an ex-
tended tour of the United States of the
practical success of prohibition"
The conclusions of the foreign pro-
hibition observers were reached after
the most painstaking investigations of
conditions i'll all parts of the country
from Canada to Mexico since they ar
rived in this country last December. In
the joint statement of Mr.. deVries and
Mr.. Nandermeulen to the New York
Times they say:
While we have recognized that
prohibition is not perfectly obsery-
ed or enforced any more than the
ten commandments arc perfectly
observed, or your laws against
stealing or murder are perfectly
observed or enforced, yet by way
OF contrast with continental
Europe it was plainly apparent
that prohibition is already a
thorough practical success, with
every indication that it is becom-
ing more willingly observed and
more effectively enforced.

Strong resolutions were passed by

plars at recent convention. One OF
the resolutions reaffirms the position
of the Templars in their previous res
olution against the action Of Spain
with regard to forcing her wines on
Iceland and further protest is made
against the combined action OF Spain
and France in compelling Norway to
import, against her wish a yearly
quantity of strong wine and brandy by
threatening to boycott Norway's chief
industry. This resolution was for
warded to the Franch and Spanish
Consul and all Christian Temperance
organizations of the country and to
the International Electoral Superin-
tendent, Larsen Lcdet.
The second resolution of the Tenn
plars requests Parliament to give
every facility for the passing of the
local option bill introduced by DIR.
Malan.
The third resolution is directed to the
Prime Minister, House of Assembly,
and urges the government not to al

PROHIBITION REDUCES
SUPPLY OF PRISON LABOR

The Syracuse On. W Post Standard
of June / says high prices for liquor
and labor are among reasons why On
ondaga county this year must pay
fifty cents an hour for highway la
borers while a few years ago there
were plenty of penitentiary prisoners
who built roads for three meals day
and a bed Such was the opinion ven
tured by William B. Trevcr, county
superintendent of highways, who has
had some difficulty in securing work
men this year.
Three or four years ago." he said,
I'VE used to have between 800 and 400
prisoners available. Back in those
days we had two road gangs of 20
and 80 prisoners each, besides pris-
oners used at the quarry. Now it is
necessary to hire laborers at the
quarry where we had only % prisoners
at work yesterday. Last year the
number averaged AZ, and of course
there are no prisoners on road jobs.
what is the reason?" questioned
Mr.. Trevers. well, | think one rea-
son is that man has to work all hour
more day to earn the price Of a
drink-hence he doesn't drink as much.
This in turn keeps him from getting
into trouble and the penitentiary.
Then there are high wages attracting
him and keeping him so busy he
doesn't have time to get into trouble"

Nine Lose Lives in Battle on
High Seas IS Chinese, 2
Whites and 2 Negroes
CREW DESERTED SHIP
Beatrice Engaged in Snug
Cling Chinese and Firewater
Into United States

The Mary Beatrice, two-masted
British Bahama sponger,' was found
off New York Bay June Ii without
crew or captain and with fifteen
Cinnamon aboard.
A strange story OF fight on the
high seas between the Cinnamon and
the crew was told by the Cinnamon
This fight according to the story, re-
suited in the death of five Chinese
two white man and two negroes.
The story is that the orientals had
paid $500 apiece to be struggled into
the United States from Cuba, that the
skipper absconded with the money and
that the crew then tried to hold up the
Cinnamon, resulting in a fight to the
death.
In addition to the Chinese the skip
per had cargo of whisky, according
to the story. On June the boat ar.
rived off New York Bay, its human
contraband eager to get ashore. Its
skipper, however, cruised up and down
waiting for smuggling launches tc
come out and remove his shipment oil
booze and Cinnamon. Finally food
and water ran low and the skipper de-
cided to leave his ship. Before leaving
he distributed rifles and pistols to the
crew. After the departure of the
skipper the crew held a conference
and decided to hold up the passengers
This story is practically substanti-
ated as result of Investigations in Chi
natown. New York, by customs off
GERS, according to later press dis
patches.
1t is especially significant in that it
indicates that rum smugglers who have
been defying the United States govern
ment are preparing to extend their ac-
tivities. They find that they are i'm
mune from arrest so long as they stay
outside the three-mile limit where in
perfect security they can bde their
time waiting for a favorable oppor-
tunity to land their contraband. They
probably figure that the United States
government will pursue the same
policy in dealing with smugglers OF
aliens or any other contraband.
