CAPONE SPENDS NIGHT BE-

When Philadelphia po- lice got Al Capone. last night for "gun toting." locked Hi min jail over night and "mugged" him for. the. rogues' gallery, they did something which in Capone's home town of Chicago would be a rare thing, indeed.
 Despite the fact that hardly gang staying occurs here without Capone's name being mentioned, Capone has yet, to- look out from behind Chicago cell bars over night. Detective, head quarters here said today that in the years Caponea has been a. leading gangland figure in Chicago he never has been booked for crime or photo graphed or finger printed

CANADA TO RENEW DEBATE
 ON U. s. LIQUOR QUESTION:

OTTAWA-The request of the United States that the Canadian gov ernment deny custom sclearance to vessels carrying consignments of liquor to the, United States today was in position to reach the floors of Parliament.
 The nequest, which the Canadian government has not seen fl. to grant, was included in correspondence and the report of Canadian and United States officials on the antismuggling conference last January. The docu- mnnts ware tabled in both houses yes- terday.
 Parliament lcades ssaid that the natter might reach open discussion when estimates of the Department of National Revenue. were before, the House. A demand for statement of the governments policy in the matter would be in order.
 The position of the. United States as stated in the correspondence and reports is that refusal of clearance is the only effective means of cutting. down the flow of liquor from Canada to the United States.
 The strong probability that Parlia- nent would have an. opportunity tos discuss the question was seen in nu- merous petitions which have been filed, urgin gthat clearance be denied to ships departing for the United States laden with liquor.
 Permission for United States off, rials in Canada to transmit informa- tion regarding liquor shipments from Canadian ports was. t. hecounter offer of Canadian officers. This could be. done under the existing antismug- gling treaty, while the denial of clearance for liquor shipments would require revision of the treaty.
 The correspondence, which was made public here and in Washington, indicated an increase in smuggling of liquor across the border.
 During the two years which ended June 30, last, United States prohibi ton and customs officers confiscated 634 boats and 964 automobiles used for the carrying of liquor from the boats. They captured 46,594 cases of beer, 6,664 barrels of beer and 16,56O cases of whiskey-
