LIQUOR RAIDS
MADE ON TRUNKS
OF DIPLOMATS
WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.—Action of
govrnment agents in seizing liquor
consigned to the diplomatic corps In
Washington has led to some compli
cations, it was learned today at the
state department. While no formal
protests have been lodged with the
government, the situation has reach
ed the point where the department
felt called upon today to issue a
public statement.
The hope is expressed In this
statement that no agent of the gov
ernment will interfere with the bag
gage or other personal possessions
of any member of the diplomatic
corsp or of his family.
Information has reached the state
department, it was said today, that
in some instances trunks and other
personal baggage of the diplomats
have been entered by the federal
agents and liquors seized. Property
thus seized was held for further
claim from the owner, but depart
ment officials said tfiere were cases
where the liquor had disappeared be
fore it could be called for.
Ordered By Shouse
Diplomats contend that It Is rec
ognized principle of international law
that the personal baggage of a dip
lomat is free from inspection by cus
toms or other agents of a friendly
! nation. When the prohibition amend
' ment became effective they generally
expected that members of the diplo
matic corps in Washington vould be
permitted to obtain supplies of bev
erages from their home countries
without Interference by the Amer
ican government. ✓
Orders to customs officials to
search the baggage of diplomats were
issued recntly by Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury Shouse, whose res
ignation was anounced yesterday, ef
fective November 15. The order
said:
“In order to prevent the Importa
tion of intoxicating beverages in vio
lation of the national prohibiton act
as construed by the attorney general,
it has become necessary to require
the examination of all baggage and
effects for which free entry is grant
ed pursuant to the provisions of ar
ticle 376 of the customs regulations
of 1915."
The article referred to governs the
privilege of free entry extended to
the baggage and personal effects of
foreign representatives acredlted to
the American government.
The decision also included these
instructions to the collectors of cus
toms:
"You will hereafter make an Im
mediate report to the secretary of
the treasury (division of customs) of
all violations of the prohibition law
which come to your attention as the
result of such examinations.
Secret Instruct one
“As this practice will be a distinct
departure from the custom that has
prevailed of waiving examination
when admitting effects to free en
try, you should take immediate steps
to impress upon your force the neces
sity for careful compliance with the
regulations as amended by this de
cision.”
Confidential instructions as to the
methods to be employed in searching
.the baggage of diplomats also were
sent to the customs force, but the
treasury department refused to make
these public.
The state department s statement
regarding Importation of Intoxicants
by members of the diplomatic corps
follows:
“Regarding published references to
the Importation of liquor by foreign
diplomatic officers, the department
of state made the following state
melt:
“The department presumes that
the practice which has prevailed in
the past will not be discontniued at
this time- that is, there will be no
interference with property in the
possession of a diplomatic officer or
a member of his household. The de
partment, of course, assumes that no
official of the government would at
tempt to pry into the baggage of a
foreign diplomatic officer.”

Baby Plunges 20 Feet
Into Sewer; Safe After
Underground Adventure
NEW YORK.—Katie Henig, two
years old, crowded more excitement
into two and one-half hours of her
hitherto uneventful life last week
than most persons experience in a
lifetime, and last night sh£ was none
the worse for it.
Katie plunged twenty feet into a
sewer in Tompkins Square park,
walked seventy-five feet underground
through a swiftly-running stream
more than a foot deep toward pos
sible death at a huge intersecting
sewer under Avenue B and was res
cued by a big fireman. The only ill
effect on Katie was somewhat of a
shock induced by the wild cheering
of the more, than 3,000 persons who
saw her brought from the sewer
alive.
Katie was taken to the park with
her four-year-ola brother, Isidore, by
her mother, Mrs. Pauline Henig, of
122 St. Mark’s place, and her grand
mother, Mrs. Celia Henig, to bathe
in the sunshine. The children began
playing while their elders crocheted
on a bench nearby.
A manhole had been fenced off to
guard the entrance to the sewer,
but somehow Katie managed to crawl
underneath the lower strand of wife,
less than half a foot above ground.
She turned and chuckled at Isidore,
who had been unable to squeeze
through, then rested her hands on

the manhole and disappeared from
view.
The amazed Isidore ran and told
his mother and grandmother of the
accident, and Park Foreman William
Lawrence and his assistants, at
tracted by the screams of the moth
er, rushed to the rescue. None of
the ladders would go through the
manhole, however, and a call was
sent for Hook and Ladder 11, at Ave
nue D and Fifth street.
The fireman opened the sewer at
Avenue B. A swift examination prov
ed the child had not been at that
point, so First Grade Fireman Frank
Ely, of 105 East Ninety-second
street, was lowered by a rope into
the swift-running water. Crawling
on hands and knees, Ely headed back
toward the hole through which Katie
had fallen, fighting to get his breath
in the sewer gas.
Finally, as Ely had about given
up hope, he saw a pale disc about
seventy-five feet away. It was the
baby’s face. When Ely reached her
she was standing waist deep in the
water, and apparently enjoying the
adventure. But sight of the strange
man crawling toward her was too
much and she set up a wail that
made the cavern ring.
Katie had calmed again by the
time she and her rescuer reached
the surface, but when the crowd
broke into cheers for the fireman
the baby became hysterical and was
attended by Dr. Schwarthoug, of Bel
levue hospital.

dred and six bales of cotton were
more or less seriously damaged and
cotton seed from 100 bales burned,

the place the day previous. The cause
of the fire is not known, but is be
lieved that sparks were concealed in
one of the recently ginned bales.

warded today to th© Spanish embassy

to Collector of Customs Norman ±t
Hamilton protecting against the raid
made on the Spanish steamer Salva

In discussing his official report on
the Incident the Spanish vice consul
here said;
“An occurrence of this sort more
than mortifies every fair-minded

that the responsible authorities in

anything like an indorsement of such
outrageous procedure as character
ized the so-called searching of the
Salvadora In this harbor on the
night of October 12.”

man and lays the foundation for
qualification as a dirigible balloon
pilot, a new field of almost limitless
possibilities.
“Commercial transportation by air
ship is an accomplished fact in
America and according to present
plans next year will see it in actual
operation in this countr on a large
scale. Today the only opportunity
for such training is either in the
army or in the navy, in fact, the lack
of qualified personnel is one of the
serious drawbacks to present com
mercial plans for airship transporta
tion lines.”
Army recruiting offices throughout
the United States have been notified
to furnish full particulars to all
young men who are interested 4n be
coming balloonists under these new
conditions.

FIRING OF GINS
STRONGLY SCORED
BY JUDGE THOMAS
MOULTRIE, Ga., Oct. 16.—Arous
ed by press dispatches describing the
burning of thousands of bales of
cotton by night riders, the firing of
cotton gins, the dynamiting of dip
ping vats and other forms of vio
lence, Judge W. E. Thomas, before
adjourning court here Friday aft
ernoon, in thanking the jurors for
their services, took occasion to make
an impressive appeal for law en
forcement.
“The barrier which divides civil
ization from the primal jungle is the
law; it is the might of the law, wise
ly and fearlessly administered; it is
the respect for and obedience of the
law on the part of the members of
society that keeps the fetid breath
of anarchy from our cheeks,” Judge
Thomas said.
“We have noticed,” he continued,
“press accounts of lawlessness in
different parts of the nation, involv
ing throwing of bombs and destruc
tion of human life; we have noticed
accounts of the burning of thou
sands of bales of cotton, the law
less destruction of cotton g’i’3 tie
dynamiting of dipping vats and eth
er evidences of. violence designed
against the property of others by
the so-called night riders. In the
midst of this spirit of restlessness
which seems world wide we wonder
how we are to be able to save the
Integrity of the commonwealth.
“I recall an instance of a primi
tive Baptist preacher of the old
school, whose ministerial work cov
ered certain rural districts in Geor
gia. He was not a literary man and
his teachings largely dealt with the
practical affairs of life, His constant
themes were ‘honesty of his people/
‘ideal citizenship,’ the integrity of
the country and the enforcement of
its laws. In his pathway was found
no anarchy and strife. Upon the
grand and petit juries his people rep
resented integrity of the home and
the honor of the state. That spirit
which defies law and order, would
unshackle destruction, would menace
life and property, would imperil our
homes and our affairs, and would
take away the happiness and well be
ing of our people. Let the majesty
of the law and its enforcement be
a part of the text of every minister
of the gospel, in every lesson he
teaches. Without the law his minis
try is a failure. Let the law’s su
premacy be of first Importance. Let
it be taught In every school in Geor
gia and let it be the by-word around
the fireside of every man who loves
his country. Let us restore our af
fairs to the Ideals of our forefath
ers. Let the law be supreme.”
