PAUL Federal Officers Say Drug Is Made in Minnesota City. That the manufacture of smoking opium has been going on in St. Paul | and all other large cities of the coun- | try since the winter of 1909, prac- tically without restraint of any kind except in a few isolated local cases and without federal regulation, is the | statement made by a St. Paul internal revenue officer. Since the confessions of R. C. Coch- bourne and W. C. Harris recently in which they admitted the illegal han- dling of opium, Special Officer Foulkes of the customs service has been work- ing on the situation in St. Paul, Min- neapolis and Duluth. He found that the manufacture of the drug was go- ing on on a wholesale basis without any restraint, and became more firmly convinced that only a small percent- age of the amount smoked was smug- gled. Two Chinamen, Chon Hon of Min- neapolis and Samuel Lowe of St. Paul, have been placed under arrest charged with having the drug in their possession and more raids are expect- ed in the near future.
