Three Overt Acts Named
According to the Indictment these
men were in conspiracy to violate the
national prohibition act throughout a
greater part Of last year. Three overt
acts were named in the indictment. One
charged that Percy ii. Kearns paid
5000 to NJ. 7. Gonzaullas, federal pro-
hibition agent, on or about October. %,
1928. Another alleged that Harry
O'Connor had in his possession approx
imately 500 cases of whisky on or about
November 13, 1928, and the third
charged that Robert l.. Holcombe, on
or about June 80, 1928, paid promis-
sorry note executed by. Harry French
and Endorsed by Holcombe in the sum
of $500.
The Indictment resulted from pro-
longed activity of federal prohibition
agents in Mobile, which eliminated in
the big raid of last fall. Among these
agents were Lone Wolf" Gonzaullias,
Eugene e. Smith and many others.
Preparations for the trial have prac-
tically been completde. The courtroom
has been rearranged to take care of
the large number of defendants and
their attorneys. Two venires, one of
so and another of So, from which to
draw the jury have been summoned.

the republican party is being shaped
gradually into a more conservative
mould, and the principle of compromise
with the progressives which was adopt
ed after the upheaval in 1912, is play
ing a steadily diminishing part.
This tendency was demonstrated in
striking manner in the selection of Rep
resentative Theodore e. Burton of
Ohio, as the temporary chairman and
keynoter of the Cleveland convention.
But it is tendency which has been
apparent in many Of the Presidents
acts and utterances in the past few
months. The President is showing an
increasing disposition to 60 his own
way without bidding for the favor of
the progressiyes. Unless he is persuad-
ed to give UP one of his fundamental
conceptions as to the destiny of the
republican party, he will tend to ex-
clude them more and more from the
party fold.
Conservatives Uneasy
There are a number of conservative
republicans, especially those who saw
the effects of the Bull Moose split from
the inside, who favor a policy of COM
promise which would tend to keep the
two wings of the party bound together.
1t was this motive which led Repre-
sentative Longworth, the ma jority lead
er of the House, to throw overheard
the Mellon tax plan. and urge adoption
of compromise which was satisfae-
tory to the progressiyes. 81
But Coolidge was reared in sanother
school. He learned politics at the feet
of Murray Crane, who stamped indeli-
bly, upon the mind of his pupil. the
theory that the republican party should

Coast Guard Furnishes Exact List To,

MOBILE, Ala, April 27.-Approxi-
mately 5000 cases of booze month
has been struggled into the ports of
this section of the Gulf coast during
the past six months, the largest por-
ton of which has been consumed in
Mobile, according to figures of the coast
guard announced by the commanding
officer of the cutter Tallapoosa.
This amount of booze is only the
amount reaching the port aboard the
professional "rum-runners" and does
not include the liquor that regularly
comes to the ports of the Gulf coast in
comparatively small quantities aboard
regular merchant ships. This liquor,
rarely exceeding 100 cases to the ship,

The amount of this liquor cannot be
definitely. estimated, but in Mobile alone
is probably runs as high as 1000 or
more cases a month and in the smaller
ports et,l.prOportionately less since
most of such booze consigned for the
interior usually enters the smaller ports
in preference to Mobile.
Correct Estimates
Figures compiled. by the coast guard
are regarded as almost absolutely ac-
curate so far as they pertain to the
booze brought to the ports by profess
sional "rum-runners." They are COM

Since very little booze is ever ship

which were commenced last year by
the Norwegian Fishery Department to
discover the whereabouts of the great
cod shoals are to be continued this
summer.
Further areas about Spitzenbergen

probable that more than one expedi-

municipal or private initiative. In the
