T 11, aa STING LIQUD SEZED IN_RAD O EAST SIDE BY FEDERAL OFFIGERS ' Albert Lasch, whe conducts a saloon at 407 ‘Main street, Fast Side, was ar- Tested on Tuesday morning by Federal ‘Prohibition Agent Machol of New Lan- don and Officer Delaney of this city on @ charge of violation of the liquer law. ‘When the officers went into the I.aseh place the proprietor was seen to « 4§ ty the contents of a glass preserving jar in- t0 a pail behind the bar. The officers se- cured the pail and its contents as evi- dence. Mr. Lasch clalmed that the pail had been in the saloon for another pur- pose and that the contents emptied into it was not liquor, but an entirely differ- ent fluid, : He was presented before U. 8. Com- ‘missioner Earl Mathewson later in -he day and as the evidence, which it ‘s claimed undoubtcdly contained a creo- sote preparation, did not show a declded presence of alcohol, it was deetded to continue the hearing until a chemieal analysis could be made of the fluid. The evidence will be sent away and the an- alysis made to determine the exact al- coholic content, I¢ it turns out that the analysis re- veals an alcoholic content, the case will be a parallel one to conditions that New Haven police are encountering. That some liquor dealers In that city have secured a recipe for a ffuld that destroys all alcoholic percentage in any- thing thrown into it was revealed In the city court there this week after a num- ber of alleged liquor law violators had been tried as a result of an analysi made of liquid taken from the sinks he- hind their bars and in one case of a ean of paint in which alleged whiskey had been thrown. Fver since the appointment by Polies Chief Philip T. Smith of a number of supernumerary policemen to serve as 3 liquor siuad, the saloon keepers of ihe city had made it their habit to throw any liquor they may have In their place When the police enter into a sink full of water, The officers then take a sample of this water =nd if the analysis shows an unlawful percentage of alcohol the saloon keeper is arrested and in many cases fined. It was suggested, however, that every chemist knows of many Mquidk that would destroy any evidence of alcohol n fluids thrown into them. Jacob Jo- solowitz, chemist of the Commercial la- boratories at 19 Congress square, who is employed by the state to perform all analyses of confiscated liquids, was ask- ed concerning this suggestion and de- clared that In his opinion-many saloon keepers were using something of this| kind, “I have samples brought to me” . he said, “of stuft that has eyery appearance ‘of containing an alcohollo percentage. ‘et when we analyze it we oan find no trace of alcohol.” _-_—m—— K.
