In a statement made to Justice
Eve, of the Chancery Division,
James Campbell, openly charged
that the Spike Trading Company
Limited, British corporation. was
an organization formed Tor the
purpose Of smuggling whiskey into
the United States.
Campbell came into court in an

company to recover about $4,000,

proceeds Of whiskey sales near the
the subject Of the court order, and

Investigation OF the Spike Trad.
ing Company discloses that it Is
practically q British corporation in
it's entirety, Angus Campbell Nc.
Lean, a retired British naval of.
ficer, being the only member of
the corporation claiming American
citizenship.
The corporation was formed in
October. 1921, for the purpose Of
carrying on the business Of gen.
eral traders" It was private
company. with no shares being Of.
fered for sale publicly. and its
capital was fixed at the nominal
sum OF $1,000. divided into four
thousand shares.
The original subscribers to the
corporation are all men Of appar-
emily established business conneo-
ton in England. They are off,
cially listed as follows: James
Campbell, Arthur T. Metcalf, q re-
tired Government official; Angus
Campbell Mclean, a retired British
naval officer. These same three
appear as the original directors Of
the company.

Elizabeth Franklin, who gives her

That the people back Of this cor.

indicated by the addresses which
they have filed with their incor-

That the practice for the British

during the court PROCEEDINGS. 1t was
brought out that the Spike Trading

Lieutenant Colonel Sir Broderick
Hartwell has apparently not found
it necessary to incorporate. but he
is still doing business at his old
stand, and it is understood that
his prospectuses inviting inves-
tors to join in rum-running ventures
have brought sympathetic responses
from some American investors.
