D., Nov. 13.—The fam- ed moonshiners of the Kentucky hills never had a more elaborate | im a eave on the bank of the’ Mis- { souri_ river 26 miles south of the; city by O. W. Widmer, deputy in. | spector of the state licensing dep: ment and A. W. Brady, P. special agent. One man, name withheld for the present, is in the county jail pending further investigation. i And yesterday visitors at the Mor- ton county court house have been inspecting the large 150 gallon capa- city copper still with long goose | nd perfectly fashioned coil. | According to Inspector Widmer he has been trying for several weeks to} Jocate the still, which he charges. been supplying a very good grade of moonshine liquor to Man- dan patrons for at least a ye: A few tips finally led Widmer and Brady to a systematic search of the woods in the Missouri river bot- | toms and they finally located the moonshine plant. A room about 14 by 20 feet in size had been hollowed out in the Mis- souri River bank. Inside the ceiling ‘as shored up with logs and the of the room faced in with} A concrete furnace was built ath the huge drum of the cop- still. This furnace had a regular ¢ door and the concrete was ntly poured to fit the still The great copper drum was ubout five feet high. From the neck at the top of the still a long coil of copper tubing running into a 500 gallon galvanized iron tank about four feet high where the product was cooled e’er it trick- led out into waiting containers. And most interesting of all, ac- cording to the inspector, was a well drilled in the center of the room, which tapped the water laden sands of the Missouri river for an inex- haustible supply of water for the cooler and for mixing mash, To reach this moonshiners cave required about nine miles of trek- king through the river bottoms. That it had been in operation for about a year was apparent from the path worn by the moonshiners. The still, five gallons of complet- ed moonshine, coil and other minor evidence was hauled to the county court house, Twelve 50 gallon bar- rels full of mash in various stages of fermentation, ten gallons of moon, 300 gallons of coarse sugar and 400 pounds of cracked corn was destroyed at the cave by the offi- cers, Further arrests are expected with- in a few days, it was stated. . Widmer on Monday also confis- cated a still at Hensler and swore out a warrant for the arrest of Wm. Chyle.
