Newburyport Mass. Sept. 'P}- Coast guardsmen lost q game of hide and seek with fast rum run ming steamer in the Merrimack river in the early morning darkness today but captured q s15,000 cargo of H. ouor landed by the vessel.

 It was shortly after midnight when the watchers at the Merri- mack coast guard station on Plum Island saw the dim outlines of a steamer running without lights, slip ping into the mouth of the river. The patrol boat went in pursuit and hailed the steamer. There was no answer from the rum runner. and the patrol boat fired. This was fol- lowed by burst of speed from the steamer and the patrol boat which was outclassed by the swift rum runner, sped after the phantom craft. only to lose 1t in the darkness and they lodged between the island up-riyer.
 Meanwhile an automobile load of coast guardsmen from the Salisbury Beach station had hurried up the river and followed the bank back to- ward the mouth. They found the enot where the rum runner had landed it's load, seized the hquor and arrested the two men. but the steamer had disappeared.
