In Denver alone they are charged with stealing blank checks which they subsequently cashed on unsus- pecting merchants there for nearly $3,000. As they leisurely made thelr way westward, the two men and the woman passed more checks. In Everett merchants were de- frauded of hundreds of dollars. Se- attle stores and hotels were vi timized for nearly $1,000 more be- fore the arrest. Several cities thru out the West and East have wired the Seattle police, asking that the prisoners be returned to them for trial. Detective Scrafford Lang’s young bride, now in jail, was unaware that her husband was already married, and threateried to “get” Lang at her first opportunity for “deceiving” her. Altho she is charged with forgery. the police will ask leatency for her at the trial.

Not so long ago golf clubs cost around $6 aplece. Old horseshoes for the barn- yard game could be picked from any old pile around a blacksmith shop, free of cost. Today golf clubs are featured in a Second ave. window at $1 each, or five for $5. A little farther don the street, the regulation horseshoes are on at $5 per set.

'ASHINGTON, May 21. lion quarts of {Mlicit Nquor were | consumed in tho United States dur. ing the past year. ‘This was an increase of one bil- Tlion quarts over the filicit quor con- | sumption of the year before The foregoing is not the estimate of either ‘“Scoffiawa” or “Cellar Smellers,” wets or drys. It is based on figures compiled by the United States department of| commerce—totally disinterested 50 far ag prohibition ix concerned. It Is, therefore, belleved to be the first wholly unprejudiced estimate of America’s illicit booze consumption ever made. The commerce department's fig: ures were gathered by Dr. Rufus 6.

Studied Foreign Records | In collecting data on the item of} smuggling liquor—the chief unre-| ported Item of imports—Dr. Tucker made a careful study of the recorded exports, imports, and consumption of | Hquors {n neighboring countries. “From this,” he explained, “it Is estimated that the value of liquor smuggled into the United States was $20,000,000. “In 1924 the value was approxi. mately $40,000,000. | “These figures represent the amount received for the liquor by the forelgn manufacturers, The est!- mates, which take no account of the Niquor illegally manufactured in| neighboring countries and sold here, are considered by customs officials to be very low.” The average price received by the foreign manufacturer for his product is a trifle Jews than $1 a quart—a} jprice increased many hundred per cent by Hquor runners, smugglers and bootleggers before the product} reaches the American consumer. | Much Liquor Made Here According to federal prohibition | unit officials, the amount of illicit | {mported Hquor in the country is less | than 1 per cent of the total Mllicit booze supply, They base thia cetimate on the re- port of William V, Linder, prohibi: | tion chemist, | During the last fisesl year Linder | analyzed approximately 90,000 sam ples of liquor seized by dry agents in all parts of the country. | Of these wamples, he found less| than one out of a hundred to be im ported stuff, From thia the prohibition chiets draw the conclusion that for every quart of “honent-to-goodnens" booze in the United States there than 99 quarts of colored aleohol, | oulltup whisky, synthetic gin, moon: | ahine, corn “likker’ and kindred products.
