Robbins, assistant attorney general, who has been fighting the case against the Hamm Brewing company on interstate shipments of liquor, reteived notice today that the appeal case would come up for oral argument October 19. The case is pending in the United States court of appeals. In the United States dis- trict court the Rock Island Railroad company was ordered by Judge Car- enter to accept shipments of liquor rom the Hamm Brewing company into dry territory and the state ap- pealed. The state claims such ship- ments are in violation of the Webb- Kenyon law and of state laws. May Not Prosecute Liquor Cases. It is probable the state will not prosecute twenty-one alleged viola- tors of the state liquor laws arrested at Davenport by state agents, but the cases will be fought out by the fed- eral government. Attorney General Cosson said today that the cases had been turned over to the federal De- &| partment of Justice and were now be- g cons red by a federal grand jury at Davenport. He said the men | would probably be charged with sell- ing liquor without a federal revenue license. ‘Now for Crowning 0f New King and Aud now the coronation ball!
