The liquor was purchased from Freedman and Richards of Cincinnati on bona fide permits obtained from the federal agent who is said to have accepted the $15,000 bribe.

Following up this lead, the corre- spondent made the acquaintance of the leading figures in the newly created organization of nd\'enlurerl.l He learned the broad outlines of a -running. One remark, “Don’t spoil our sport,” is the best indication of the under- Iylng motive of these devil-may-care soldiers of fortung, practically all of whom are in the game for excitement rather than monetary gain. They are mostly English-Americans of the dashing ex-officer type, one of the leaders being a brigadier general of the British Army, who has had a ro- mantic career. Florida Coast Objective. Under plans which have just been worked out, at least one of the con- verted yachts which during the war were employed as submarine chasera will soon leave a French port in the direction of the West Indies. She will not convey any liquor from France, of course, but take in her cargo of booze either at a port in the West Indles or from tramp steamers on the high seas. Once the chasers have been well stocked they will begin the exciting part of their voyage when the crew of adventurers will seek to outwit the American watchers and land their highly valuable cargo among their waiting confederates on the Florida coast.

And yet—contrary to world-wide custom —the Cadillac is lower in price than the cars which eagerly seek comparison with it. Moreover, it outse/ls all of them combined by a vol- ume which is something like one-third greater. This latter fact explains why the Cadillac is not only the world’s catest value in point of all that constitutes superb performance, but the world’s greatest value in price as well.
