Cor, 17th Bt, SEED fiQUORS TO BE RETURNED RNS ARE HALTED (Continued from First Page.) saw fifteen cases of whiskey being loaded on a truck, They found no record of such a sale in the office of the firm, and under orders from Daniel J, Chapin, then supervising agent, they attempted to seize the entire stock of the wholesalers. Frantz & Co, resisted and told the ajrents they would have to smash the doors to get in. The agents stood guard outside ail night, and the next day Chapin personally went before Commissioner Hitchcock and ob- tained a search warrant for the premises. Under this warrant about $20,000 worth of liquor was seized and sent to the Knickerbocker ware- house. Commisstoner Hitchcock yesterday decided that this seizure of the entire stock had been made under the old Internal Revenue statute. He sum- moned an Assistant United States Attorney who agreed with him that the new Circuit Court of Appeals de- cision, repealing the old Internal Rev- enue statute, made the seizure un- justifiable. The Commissioner there- upon signed the order for the return of the liquor. Under the Volstead Act, it was held, only the fifteen cases which the agents saw being loaded on the truck were subject to confisca- tion. Charles H. Griffiths, formerly Chief Assistant United States Attorney here and now head of the law firm of Griffiths, Sarfaty, and Content, No. 120 Broadway, said he believed four- fifths of the big seizures of liquor made while Chapin was acting su- pervising agent here were made on search warrants under the old In- ternal Revenue statute. SEIZURES MADE UNDER OLD IN- TERNAL REVENUE LAW. Some of the seizures, for which Mr. Griffiths said he would press for im- mediate recoveries, were from L. Lassner & Co,, $35,000; United States Distilling Company, Inc., No. 353 West 48d Street, $250,000, and Alfred Pettrucci, No. ‘353 Bleecker Street, $35,000. All of these cases were simi- lar to that of Frantz & Co., sald Mr. Griffiths In cases where seizures are made cn a search warrant, the Judge or Commissioner who issued the war- rant has the power, if convinced ‘t was wrongfully issued, to order its cancellation and the return of all liquors seized under the warrant, without any other court action. Suits for recovery are necessary in cases of seizure without search warrants, as the supervising prohibition agent, who is the custodian of confiscated Iquors, is not an officer of the court apd consequently not subject to per- emptory orders from the court. There are now on file in the United States District Court here, suits against Chapin and other Prohibition jagents for a total of about $500,000, representing the value of liquor 18 Vi ace Vendime .
