 Fog has failed to aid the die- hards of the rum fleet that still lin- ger off New York. No running of the blockade has been reported in two days Of heavy mist, To prevent the fog helping rum row the dry navy sent IA additional armed craft out of New London.
 The increasing activities Of the coast guard are being supplemented by considerable sponging up of liquor that leaked ashore. Michigan state police have seized 36O cases Of Canadian beer in boathouses near Mt. Clemens. Eight more saloons have been closed by federal paddock smiths in New York and Q plant that did a larger business in cutting and distributing rye whiskey has 1 been raised.

RUM ROW BREAKING
 UP AND FLEEING
WhiSkey Offered at Bargain
 Prices in Foreign Ports

New York. May 12,-(AP)-With n business that has approached $40. 100000 a year smashed by tho dry navys blockade, whlskey ships illeeing the Atlantic seaboard are be- ginning to offer their cargoes in foreign ports at bargain rates,
 Meanwhile an effort Is being made to pour liquor Into the United states via the Pacific coast. Finding the blockade Of the Atlantic impenerable peared off San Diego, Calf. Five 10000 ton vessels, flying British and Belgian flags and sticked with well assorted c9tgoes, are 40 miles off shore. Their presence has been re- ported by tho coast guard cutter ramarca and officers of the cutter arc quoted as saying that boats or customers of the rum fleet are too speedy for the dry navy there to ovcrtake, as at present equipped.
 Up in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia whence have come many of the craft that have sold liquor fer 1 thirsty New Workers in the last four years, liquor could be bought cheap y from two schooncrs If the Cana dian authorities would permit it.. WhiSkey was offered on board yes terday at $l2 case and cham pagne at correspondingly low rates. The bargains were offered as soon as the echooners made port, their decks piled high with cases. Pre- sumably the vessels came from off New York, driven home by lack of customers and need of food and water. They did no business, how ever, as two Canadian revenue cut ters stood by,
 In the annual report of the de- partmcnt of commerce, published today, Secretary Hoover. in stats- tics on the country's foreign trade last year, gives s40,00O,00 as an estimates of the cost of bootlegged foreign liquor. The sum is said, in the opinion Of officials connected with the customs service, to be low estimate in view of the operations of rum row.
 Presumably the cost guard will ex. tend it's activities to prevent the thirst of Californians being satisfied in an illegal manner. When there were indications that having found it impossible to sell liquor for New Workers, the rum fleet was heading south to seek customers from Balti- more and Washington the dry navy promptly met the situation. Latest advices say that 26 coast guard craft are maintaining a tight blockade of the Virginia capes, the dry navy having been doubled since the block ade off New England, New York and New Jersey began a week ago today Rear Admiral F.
