A liquor car escaped a trap laid for it by prohibition agents on the road to Ritchie Station, just off the Marl- boro pike, last night, only to crumble up on a telegraph pole, after skidding sharp turn, bringing injury that prove fatal to Ben Chesi- voir, 26 years old, well known to local liquor raiders, and less serious injuries 10 his companion, Paul Hern, 28 years old, of Leonardtown, Md. At Casualty Hospital, where the '§/{ two men were taken early this morn- || ing, Dr. William Lawton gave Chesi- fighting chance for life by su || mitting to a transfusion ot 750 cubic centimeters of his blood into the body || ot Chelsivoir, who rallied, and in the || opinion of physicians has now just & chance of pulling through. “The prelude to the liquor drama on the dark Maryland roads last night || took place at the junction of the Crane highway and the Marlboro pike, just west of Marlboro. Pro- hibition Agent T. E. Hartman, and others were heading homeward after a fruitless search of Southern Mary- As they headed west along the Marlboro pike, the agents noticed the lights of a car coming up They judged it Figuring on get ting the car later, they continued along the Marlboro pike at a brisk pace, according to the agents, while the car fell into the trap by taking || the same route somewhat in the rear of the agents’ machine.

The cars held thelr relative positions until the vicinity of Meadows, Md., reached, when the dry car topped at the roadside and began tooting its siren in a manner which to be recognized by boot- dry” blockade car was barring the road further up. Disregarding the signal, or chancing lity of swerving around any the liquor car swept by at and escaped the trap. The 8" car took up pursuit, chasing the fugitive as far as Forestville, Md. where the liquor car made a sharp turn to the right and headed down the road toward Ritchie Station. Here the prohibition agents lost the liquor car. They scoured the immedi ate vicinity to no avail, and, believing that with the long lead obtained by the fugitive, it had swung into a field and waited until the “dry” car had passed, then doubled back on the trafl the agents resigned themselves to a second failure of the day, and started back to town. It was near midnight when they ed up from a wrecked automobile on the road to Ritchie Station and were being rushed to Casualty Hospital. Hartman and his colleagues returned pole into which it has crushed, in a complete wreck; turned on its side, and demolished almost beyond recog- nition. Much blood was around it.
