New Breed of Swashbucklers Take Place of Captain Kidd Along Rum Row
NEA Service Staff Writer (Copyright, 1924 by NEA Service) I „ IN BOARD U. S. S. SENECA, S IOI OFF ATLANTIC COAST, I 1 Jan. 18.—A new breed of swashbuckling gentry has stepped upon the boards to take the place of Captain Kidd and other famous daredevils of a dead age. Up to the passage of the prohibition amendment, the successors of the redoubtable rascals that spent their ill-gotten gains in the taverns of lower Broadway, ruffling It with the best, were but poor inflations. But with the outlawing of liquor, aqd the immense .wealth waiting those daring enough to supply the demand for the contraband liquid, there came into being men of the same type as those whose daring feats were the subject of song and stry. The capture by the Seneca of the motor boat K-13091 with her crew of two, George Murray and Frank McManus, who were charged with impeding coast guard officers in the performance of their duty, is affair sample of the nerve displayed by some of the men. who go far to sea in fast motor boats. With the approach of the Seneca, the two men. -who were aboard one of the ships oil Rum Row, leaped to their boat, which was moored alongside, and sped away, despite commands from the Senate to halt. Bullets cut the water about them; one hit their ehgine; shells burst Bround them; it was not until one shell burst directly overhead and sprayed them with its fragments that they halted, and surrendered. Aboard the Seneca they braved the officers with sneering smiles and insolent remarks—their philosophy, "Better luck next time.” And with the wealth that rolls in upon them, they flaunt themselves in the gilded cases and cabarets of Broadway.
To earn their money they go to sen In small, fast, motor boats—boats that usually run from 35 to 40 feet in length and 8 to SVju-feet in beam. The boats are heavily engined), and are very speedy. They take these small boats ten to twelve miles out to sea. into an area that Is often storm-swept, and covered with dense fogs. Giant waves that batter everything to pieces must be chanced. With anywhere from 100 to 200 cases of whisky aboard, their boat’s gunwhale may be only an inch or so above water. — 1 But despite danger of storm, of waves or of capture, they gaily ply their trade—laughing at success, insolently smiling at defeat. This Is one of a series by Dorman. ENGELKE'S PLACE SAFE, CU P. SAYS Appropriation Made to Juvenile Court, I# Contention.
