Portland, July 27. An appeal from
the circuit court decision ordering the
San Francisco and Portland Steam
ship company to deliver to Wadhams

d.iy publicly warned that any at
tempts to import liquor in greater
quantities than the law allows pend
ing the decision in the present case
will be quickly prosecuted, notwith
standing Judge Morrow's decision de
claring void the provision limiting the
cur.ntity of liquor or alcohol importable.
