Acting on information coming to the attention of Chief Greer the po- lice made a raid on a couple of places down the river on Friday evening last and made rich hauls, including a couple of stills and much liquor in the making and other liquor fully made] First Chief Greer, Constable 'Rayeroft', and Offieer R. Allen went down the: river visiting a shack about five miles from town. It was some distance into the bush from the house occupied by Messrs. E. Colborne and Mose Char.. trand. Colborne and Chartrand were placed under arrest for violation of the law in connection with the posses- sion of a still and a large quantity of liquor. When the police arrived the making of liquor seemed to be in aet- ive progress. There was a home-made still, worm and all, based on a copper boiler with lid soldered down tight and cleverly piped. At this place five big barrels of “booze” or "hooteh" were discovered. There would be about 200 gallons of home-made liquor in this batch, At another shack about 21/2 miles away, Pete Sicko was ur- rested. He is also accused of having a still and having liquor illegally. The police Seized the still on the premises. Like the other still it is apparently home-made and manufactured from a ~‘\\$\>X\\\‘ lyash boiler, though the :proceSS of dis- tillation varies somewhat from the other. At Sieko's shack there were about four gallons of booze already made, with three big barrels in the making. The'amount of liquor thus seized by the police may be totalled as between three and four hundred gal- Ions. On account of the location of the shacks it was impossible for the police to carry all the liquor ‘and machinery for making. Accordingly samples of the liquor were taken and all the machinery used, such as stillls, etc., were brought to town, along with the three prisoners. The police had a busy and strenuous night of it, two trips being made down the river for the work, the second trip being made by Offieers Allen, Rayeroft and Roy. Messrs. Colborne, Chartrand and Sicko are being held on a charge of illegally having lliquor in their pos- session. It ig likely that another charge in eonneetion with the opera- IMPORTANT CASES LAST WEEK WERE REMANDED Thursday last was a very busy day at the police court here, the number of cases being large and varied. Owing to the Net that the Crown Attorney wasrunable to be present on Thursday two of the most serfous cases were remanded for a week. Remands were also made in some other cases. The remands ineluded:--Jos. Gilbert, re- manded for a week on a charge of wife-beating; S. T. Allarry, an Aus- trian, remanded on. a charge of cons- piracy; M. Bern, charged with at- tempted rape; remanded to this week; W. Allaire; Mountjoy, charged with the rape of a young girl, remanded to this week. tion of the il1ieit stills will duo be made. tNey will come before Magis- trate Atkinson tomorrow, (Thursday) for a hearing. The cases disposed of on Thursday included a parcel of plain drunks the usual fines being imposed. W. Mar- tin on a charge arising from having home-made liquor was fined $200.00 and costs. P. Antoine and Amie An- toine were each fined $6.00 and costs for selling tobacco on Sunday at the Antoine stores on Fourth Avenue and Pine 'Street. Geo. Mabaseau had five Moneta men up for assault. The five escaped by the paying of the costs. It was apparently only a friendly little row between pals. Carl Knvilsky, a foreigner charged with living on the avails of prostitu, tion was sentenced to not less than 6 months nor more than 2 years. He was apparently responsible for a mar- ried women, formerly of Haileyhury, going astray and running counter to the law. This woman has five children, and her husband was ready to take her back, as well. as making restitu- tion of money collected by her for the C.A.S. and not turned in. Magistrate Atkinson) her go on suspended sen- tenee provided she returns to her family and behaves herself in seemly way hereafter.
