Can’t Bring Boom on Monon Trains—Law Enforced.

Francesville Tribune. The Chicago excursion from Greencastle was well patronized last Sunday. Stops north of Monon were made at Rensselaer, Lowell and Hammond. At Cedar Lake a stop was made for water where some twenty-five passengers loaded up with bottled goods to relieve their thirst enroute. The train crew and a detective made them leave the booze on the platform, as the Monon, is now insisting on a strict enforcement of the new law which prohibits the drinking of intoxicating liquors on trains, except in buffet cars.
