New York, June 2§.—Uncle Sam after starting to seize Johnny Bull's liquor on the Baltic today, halted,. scratched his head and later resumed | his raid on the stearmship's lockers, stocked with liguor under British, government seal intended for use on the homeward trip. Just why he paused in his raid re- mained a mystery, at 11 o'clock. At the offices of the White Star line it| was stated that no Injunction pro- ceedings had been instituted. How to Get Tt Off. Getting the liquor off the steams ship promised to prove something of !a thorn in the side of the customs | agents, Chief Officer Willlams of | the Baltic sald they couldn't look to the crew for aid and couldn’t use the ship's cranes to land the spirits. | There are half a dozen narrow star- ! ways and interminable crooked cor- ridors between the liquor and the land. X The liquor was inventoried and a | guard placed over it but none had been removed at noon and Captain Roberts, declaring it would take the authorities 48 hours to get it off un- aided, predicted it would be left |aboard. He said the formal seizure !'was enough to provide a test case. Files Official Protest Captain Roberts' protest against the sefzure read: “I, J. 1. Roberts, master of the | British steamship Baltic of Liverpool, | protest against the breaking of the | British customs seals and the selzure by the United States customs au- thorities of the ship's stores of wine | and liquor held under seal on bon.rd | this ship for consumption exclusively ' | outside the territorial waters of the.

Berengaria Is Next Surveyor of the Port Whittle an- nounced that the Berengaria's liquor would be taken next. Collector Elting finally explained that the seizure of the Baltic's liquor |had been halted because it was dis- covered that Dr. E. K.
