SAN FRANCISCO, April 3d.
The rum vessel Federalship, seized
300 miles off the California coast
by coast guard cutters, will be re-
leased Immediately, U. S. District
Attorney George Hatfield announc-
ed today.
Hatfield said he had received
word from Washington that the gov
enment has no case by which it
can hold the Federalship longer.

crew freed, claiming the seizure
violated all treaties, but while the
crew was released, the Federalship

registry, was loaded with liquor des-
tined for Central American ports,
its officers claimed, when coast
guard vessels fired across her bow
and took her in tow.

Tried simple home treatment
now walks easily without cane

How the agonizing pain OF an acute
attack of rheumatism was eased, and
recovery hastened is told in a letter
from John Smith Of Shock, KY.

leg, and for thirty-five days l could
not sit up" he writes. "I got no
better until began using Sloan's Lini-
ment. Before | had used one bottle |
could sit up, and now can walk with
out cane"
And it is amazing the quick, gen
uine comfort that Sloan's gives. It
doesn't just deaden the pain. It stirs
. up the body to throw of the cause.
No need to rub even. A little SIoan's
patted on lightly-and healing tide
Of fresh, germ-destroying blood begins
tingling through the aching place. Be
