Seek to Determine Question of Ownership as We'll as Status of Manager in Liquor Case Up for Hear- ing Before Krasow Friday Afternoon

To determine the question of ownership as well as the status of manager federal agents took the in- 1tiattve yesterday and served Ia summons on John O'Brien alleged proprietor of a former restaurant on the corner of East Main and Cherry streets Maurice Crimins, the supposed manager, was taken into custody by the federal author fties when a raid was made on the place last week. About seven gall Ions of liquor were seized. When two gallons were found. in Pack ard car in the rear of the building the dry sleuths seized the machine.
 Both O'Brien and Cfimins will face United States Commissioner Harry A. KraEow next Friday af- ternoon. It is understood that MT O'Brien has very emphatically de- nied ownership of the place, but the federal authorities claim that an in- vestigation has revealed that a number of bills contracted in con- nection with the operation of the place were contracted in MT :. O.. Brien's name.
 Over a month ago a squad of agents visited the place and on seiz- ing some evidence summoned MT Crfmins before Commissioner Kra- SOW. The former was ordered held for the United States District court. Instructions were given at the time to the manager to close the place. After allowing sufficient time for the proceedings the agents return ed and found the place in the pro- cess of being dismantled. It was moving day, but the agents gave the establishment the once over

and made another hit. MT Crimins for the second time was nominated for the rap.
 Yesterday afternoon a number of federal agents, including Ralph Johnson were in town, and they wis., ited the East Main street place again. They found a number of carpenters working making a num- Der of renovations for a new ten- ant. Among the interested specta- tors was MT O'Brien. He was ap- preached by Agent Johnson and questioned. He registered a very positive denial that he was the former owner or interested in any way in the store or it's former bus mess. In view of the evidence ob- tained, however, he was notified to appear before the United States commissioner.
 The case of James Vickus of 846 Bank street was continued one week when brought before Com- missioner Krasow yesterday after noon. Counsel for the accused has asked for sufficient time in which to analyze the contents of the all legged discriminating evidence. The federal authorities allege that vic- kus dumped pitcher of moon- shine into sink when they entered his place. Some of the liquid was quickly scooped up and placed in a bottle. The question to be decided by experts analaysis is whether the amount seized or reclaimed con- tains sufficient alcohol to warrant an arrest.
 A weeks continuance was also granted in the case of John Cada- ret, Of 431 West Main street sin whose place a quantity of beer was seized last Saturday afternoon.

 Argument pro and con are ex- pected to be waged and a special committee will be appointed to con slider claims of both sides on the subject.
 Of course the outstanding en- tertainment of the outing will be the boat ride.

It will be two and a half hour ride along the sound. Entertain ment will be furnished by the mem bers themselves, in songs and dances. A shore dinner (and what dinner) will be served at the Casino.

almost inevitable nomination.
 But there was an ominous si 1ence on the subject in Curry'l suite at the Blackstone hotel.
 Roosevelts manager. James A Farley, made a midnight visit ts Curry. The only information was in Curry's words:
 "Tammany Is endeavoring tl seek the best man available for ths democratic nomination"
 That means that you have moi yet decided for whom Tammany will voter"
 Exactly"
 Roosevelt has within 161 votes of enough to win the nomination by a two-thirds majority, accord ing to United Press tabulations Smith and the seven other candi- dates combined have almost enough last ditch votes to block 8 two thirds majority.
 Eoosevelt's general staff con- cedes the allied opponents 398 votes, in the initial ballot. This is 13 more than enough to block a two-thirds majority. It does not allow Smith any votes out of the New York, Pennsylvania or In- d1ana delegations.
 Roosevelt counts on one of two things to happen.
 His first hope Is for a last t-minute equalization by Tammany. followed by a bandwagon stampede by Mis- souri, Virginia and some other del- egations.
 If Curry holds out then the Roosevelt general staff is prepared to issue orders to all of their del egates to go down the line and The fight will be made, if neces- rules are adopted-probably Tues day-when a majority vote will wipe out the rule which comes down from the party's infancy.
 Southern states always have fought to hold this rule as a pro- lection to them against combina- tions of the eastern and western wings of the party. Many might continue to insist upon the rule this time.
 However. Roosevelt forces would count upon the great strength of Roosevelt in the south-he has ev- cry state of the old south except Texas-and upon the argument that the Smith, Raskob group are trying to defeat the majority fa- vorite by technicality using the two-thirds rule to defeat the wishes of the south itself.
 It is a risky adventure. The Tammany leader is against any change.
 The first announcement by Cur ny here was that Mayor Jimmy Walker of New York would be q member of the resolutions commit tee. This came just as Governor Roosevelt sent Walker an outline of charges in connection with the administration of New York city affairs. and asked him for an an- Swer.

 Controlling the vast throng and keeping the ceremonies on sched- ule was one of the most difi1cuit problems ever faced by local au- thorities. A vast hookup of loud speakers was used to direct the street crowds, make announce ments, and broadcast ceremonies for those unable to gain admission. Fifteen thousand stewards worked with Free state soldiers and Dub- lie civic guards.
 The principal ceremonies were broadcast by the Free State gov- ernment's new wireless station. and were picked up and relayed by the Vatican City wireless station.
