It is upderstood, however, tronnl others in ‘close’ touch with the af- fairs of the Trumbull Electric Co., present time at least, plan to go to work in the plant of the Plainville concern. 8. 8. Gwillim, secretary of the company, stated yesterday that he knew nothing of the contemplat- ed addition of the president’s son to the stai: and Henry Trumbull, treasurer, stated today that it was his opinion that John Coolidge would not go to work in Flainville and that previous statements of the young man to the effect that he did not know where he was going to work were actual facts. It is as- sumed that he has several oppor- tunities and is taking his time in making up his mind. Governor Trumbull arrived home from a visit to Maine, where he has a camp on Moosehead Lake, this morning. John Coolidge himself declared that he was not engaged to Miss Florence Trumbull and that he was £till without a job.

In the same conversation he took occasion to deny rumors that he was betrothed to Florence Trumbull, daughter of the governor of Con- necticut ,in whose company he h been frequently. He did say, how- ever, that he probably would leave here the first of the week to go to Hartford, Conn., to meet Miss Trum- | bull on her return from a European | vacation.

Shakedowns like that are what drive us out of busi- ness. \ Philadelphia bootleggers concen- trate on two brands of liquor—aico- hol and “sweat” whisky. The la ter is the recent discovery of A& bootlegger here and is now the most widely-sold brand in the east. “8weat” whisky is made by obtain- ing charred barrels in which bona fide liquor has been aged in Canada or Cuba. Into these barrels is pour- ed the raw corn and rye whisky which the bootleggers make. The kegs are then placed in a steam room and the tlavor of the real liquor that the barrels formerly -con- tained is “sweated” into the raw rye and corn. The genuine flavor makes it possible to sell $1.50 whisky for $10 and $12 a quart. Trade on Big Scale The alcohol trade is carried on on a bigger acale, and shipments are made to all sections of the country. Even before prohibition Philadel- phia was the center of the indus- trial alcohol industry and now, offi- clals say, the city's liquor ring sup- plies the necessary ingredient for a large part of the nation's gin. Most of the alcohol plants—there are supposed to be at leats eight large ones here—iun as periume faciories, and the alcohol which is shipped out on trains is labelled either “perfume” or ‘“paint.”” The large volumie of alcohol that moves out of Philadelphia each week makes it imperative that the liquor syndicate have a small army of guards. That is where the gangsters come in. They hire themselves out to the syndicate to see that the liquor shipment reaches its destina- tion. When one gang is in the hire of the syndicate, the rival group will turn hijackers and stick-up mnen to earn {ts living. Thus there is a constant warfarc—a battle which 1 likely to flare into murder at any minute. Many persons who have investi- gated the Philadelphia liguor ring erroneously link it with Scartace Al Capone's gang in Chicago. Phila- | delphia gangsters say they have no | connection with Capone. Their ar- gument, which is as follows, sounds sincere and logical: “Gangs either fight or ignore each other. We don't retail stuff in Ca- pones’ territory, although we will make wholesale shipments of alco- hol. But wé do that for everybody, and all of them pay the same price. 8o long as the toys in Chicago let us alone, we are willing to mind our own busincss.” It is a Business The thing that must be remem- bered about bootlegging in Philadel- phia is that it is 4 vusiness. There are no mock heroics, no conferences around a sputtering candle—none of the scenes with which movie au- diences bave grown familiar. The work is done openly, expenses are budgeted and a set profit must be made each month. True, the gangster-guards carry pump guns, but they have them for the same reason that a traveling salesman has a fountain pen—be- | cause it is needed in the business. | And if someone is murdered now | and then it is usually the result of | a petty hijacking quarrel or the climax of & personal feud for the | favors of some underworid beauty. | 1t never 1s a battle between two | giant liquor ringa, for the men who | run the syndicates are far too busy making money to take time off to shoot one another.
