"The -board does not believe," the ruling 'said, "that wine held in a bonded warehouse, which can be removed only for specific purposes and after complying with the requirements of 'the Volstead act and the regulations ol the bureau of internal revenue isifued there under, can be said to be an article of commerce subject to constant dealings in ready markets, with such frequent quotations of prices as io make the price easily ascertainable, -o- to make the staple easy to realize upon at any time by lawful sale."

The tablet en the wall of the credit lyonnaise recalls one of the murderous air raids made on Paris, 110 persons losing their lives while several hundred were wounded. It was shortly after eleven o'clock that the aerial torpedo, the first of the raid, fell in the Rue de Choiseul, killing a French soldier on leave and two Australian soldiers who were coming from the boulevards. The torpedo wrought damage among the numerous banks in the vicinity. CONTEST FOUR SEATS OF REPRESENTATIVES WASHINGTON", April 12.

LLOYD GEORGE HEARS OPPOSING FACTIONS IN LABOR DISPUTE (By Associated Press) LONDON, April 12 Both sides in the controversy between mine owners, and .coal diggers which brought about the strike of British miners last week were received by Premier Lloyd George today. The mine owners conferred with Lloyd George at 11 o'clock and the miners were ready to talk with the premier immediately after the conclusion of his conversation with the owners. Representatives of the miners will report to the triple alliance of labor later in the day as to whether the prospects of a settlement are sufficiently favorable to justify the postponement of the strike of the national union of railway men and the national federation of transport workers, members of which are prepared to walk out at 12 o'clock tonight. It was declared here today that there would be no strike of these two organizations unless negotiations to be carried out today broke down. Outlook Unfavorable Prospects were generally held out to be unfavorable although a member of the miners' executive committee said last night: "We have not come to grips, as yet on counter proposals." Yesterday's proceedings barely passed the preliminary stage of the state ment of ' tie T respective cases of those ' directly involved in the miners' strike, and says the London Times, "nothing emerged from them but a presentation of the problem in all its naked difficulty." It was stated in various quarters today that the miners were prepared to accept a wage reduction by the establishment of a slidinz scale schedule based on the cost of living. I it was pumiea out mat, in even tne t most unfavorable circumstances the transport strike cannot begin until Friday, as seamen and firemen, whose union is affiliated with the transport workers' federation, insisted on a ballot before walking out. This vote began today and will take four days to be cast. Operations to insure the safety of the miners from floods of the water are proceeding without hindrance in most of the coal fields in the United Kingdom. The only exception is found in Fifeshire, where only two of sixty four pits are being pumped. OFFICIALS OF WHITING IRREGULAR IS CHARGE INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. April 12.

TICKET COLLECTORS SWINDLE AMERICANS TRAVELING IN EUROPE (By Associated Press) CONSTANTINOPLE. April 12. Swindling travelers in connection with rrfLSSrmrt vioaa has hcrnmA mm mf the favorite meanc nt HvsHhnnH nt minnr officials in the Orient and Balkan countries. " Mrs. J. H. P. Polly, wife of an American business man, living in London, was recently a victim of this fraud while traveling on the Orient Express, running from here to Paris. When the train was passing from Bulgaria into Serbia, at 2 o'clock in the morning, an official in uniform, representing himself as a Serb inspector, demanded to see her passports, informed her tlfat the vise obtained at the Serb Legation in Constantinople was . invalid and ordered her to leave the train. After protestations, he consented to accept $35 to let her continue her journey. She had already paid $30 for vises of her passport. Many Fake Collections. Before leaving Constantinople many travelers are obliged to give large sums to get vises which later may be I UUViai CU HUOllU A XA Lilts jlusvmuws . refuses from Russia are not wanted in other countries, where they ! hey are fushed ?ith Hn for sums ranging from $20 to $100. ; As these refugees are poor, they are often obliged to spend all but their traveling expenses for vises. Another form of swindle result? from the general European laws against taking large suras of silver, gold or paper money of a given country into another. Hold Cash at Border. To prevent such traffic, governments place officials at frontiers who demand of each traveler the sum of foreign cash on his person. If he declares any thing above the equivalent of $70, or some such modest sum, it is taken anil a receipt given which he may cash in money of the country on leaving it Sometimes the inspector merely pockets the money, or will take a bribe to let the traveler proceed with all his cash. Americans of experience have adopted the plan of carrying only checks or drafts and thu3 avoid this annoyance. The oldes form of travel swindle takes the form of trains stopping due to lack of coal. Then the train crew plays cards until the passengers take up a collection with which to buy coal. This swindle has been improved uDon. An official takes up tickets. and then a second official, who de nounces the first one as a fraud, makes the passengers pay a second time. This is confined to local trains.
