BARRELS OF LIQUOR SHIPPED
ON FORGED PERMITS. WEAL.-
THY MEN INVOLVED.
BOSTON, Mass.—Federal prohibi
tion enforcement officers, following
a raid on the summer homes of four
Massachusetts millionaires at the
North Shore and the seizure of four
barrels of high grade whisky, believe
that they have evidence that a
“whisky ring,” composea of well
known Boston business and profes
sional men, is operating between
Boston and New York. It is alleged
that forged government permits are
used, and the most select alcoholic
beverages are sold at rich prices to
high class clientele in Boston and
vieinity,
The officers would not state who
they believe those men to be, but de
clared that the evidence which they
possess will be sent on to the proper
officials in Washington.
William J. McCarthy, superivising
federa]l prohibition agent for New
England, personally directed the raid
on the summer estates, and while no
arrests hdve been made as yet offi
cials declare that all those connected
with the case will be prosecuted.
The millionaires in whose cellars
the liquor was seized are: Rudolph
L. Agassiz, of Hamilton, president
of the Calumet and Hecla company |
and president and director of several
other large companies; Brice F. Al-|
len, of Beverly, head of the Allen|
Steamship company; John R. Post,
Beverly Farms, member of the firm
of Dorr & Post, 53 State street, and |
Richard Whitman, of Hamilton. In|
each of the homes a barrel of whis-|
ky was taken. ?
The prohibition enforcement |
agents charge that a ‘‘whisky ring”’ |
in this city contracted for a consid- |
erable quantity of high grade liquor |
in the possession of a concern sup
posed to handle it for non-beverage !
purposes. They paid the concern $5
a gallon and the recipients of the|
liquor are said to have in some cases
paid as high as $1,440 a barrel, or |
about $43 a gallon, In the case un-|
covered the barrels of whisky were
issued on a permit alleged to have |
been signed by the federal prohibi-|
tion agent of New York. The permit, |
the officials declare, was a forgery. |
It stipulated that the liquor was to
go to New York for non-beverage |
purposes. |

Epidemic, Should It Recur This Win

A recurrence of influenza this
winter would find medical science
with only littie more information on
the scourge than two years ago,
when the scourge first reaped its
harvest of death in every corner of
the globe, according to specialists in
the public health service at Wash

ways, a mystery.
Whether another epidemic may be
expected during the coming winter

| SAUSALITO, Cal.—Postmaster E.
'H. Shoemaker, of this Marin county
‘town, mistrusted the strength of an
old iron safe in his office and placed
his confidence to baffle Would-be-l
burglars in the kitchen stove. How
ever, he has learned at the cost of
$6OO that his confidence in the fam
ily range was misplaced and will
henceforth put his stamps and other
valuables in the repository furnished
by Uncle Sam.
Every night Shoemaker was in the
habit of bringing home a large bun
dle of postage and war savings
stamps and hiding them unbeknown
to the family in the stove. : |
The weather at Sausalito the oth
er morning was quite chilly and the
postmaster’s daughtey started a fire
—_soon the stamps vanished in
smoke.
Shoemaker reported the matter to
the postoffice inspector and was in
formed that he would be required to
make good the government’s loss.
“It's a strange thing,”, said In
spector Morse, ‘‘that postmasters will
use stoves for hiding places. We re
ceive reports regularly from post
masters of stamps being destroyed
in this manner.”

' Proceeding unmanned, but under

are as yet unwilling to make a pre
diction. They forecast the epidemic
of last winter, but data now at hand
is not considered adequate for pur
poses of hazarding an opinion. They
feel certain that influenza will be
present to some extent, but perhaps
not in epidemic form.
No cure has been found and prov
ed, although scientists have been at
work in hundreds of laboratories in
America and Europe. The germ of
the disease, so far as the public
health service has been able to
learn, has not been definitely isolat
ed and identified. Numerous serums
have been made, but the worth of
none has been fully established.

GRIFFIN, Ga.—There is a man
in Griffin who is “all het up” over
the result of the recent election and
as a result is in a rather peculiar
situation.
He is a prominent cotton man. Be
fore the election he was active in
his opposition to Thomas E. Watson
ang frequently announced during the
race if Watson carried Spalding
county he was going to move out of
that county into some other county
in Georgia, -
Soon after the returns were in
showing Watson had_swept Spalding
county Judge J. J. Flynt, chairman
of the ‘state democratic executive
‘committee, met the man.
“Why, I thought you were going
to move out of Spalding county if
it went for Watson,” remarked Mr.
Flynt.
“Well, T was,” replied the man,
who was reading the long list of
counties carried by Watson; ‘but
where in hades am I going to move
to?”

}His bill let him down 25 per cent.

WASHINGTON, D. C.—Officials

first time in fifty-five years that a

The last woman hanged here was
Mrs. Suratt, who aided the conspira

President Wilson has refused to
take any action in the case.
Josephine Berry shot to death Ada
