Desertion I tbe cnarge filed by
Louise Miner against Charles Miner.
They were married in 1913 In Van
couver. CAMOUFLAGE FAILURE IN
SEIZURE OF BOOZE KEGS
Two five-gallon kegs or whiskey,
cleverly concealed in two old leather
handbags were taken from Southern
Pacific train 17 Thuraday night at
Clackamas station by Sheriff WiUon,
Deputy District Attorney Burke and
Judge John N. Slevers.
The official boarded the train at
Oregon City, and when railroad offic
ials demurred to the taking posses
sion of the liquor, the car number was
noted on a search warrant already pre
pared, it was signed by Judge Sievers
and a warrant of search was properly
signed and issued by the magistrate
to Sheriff Wilson. The whole proceed
Ing was done before the train reached
Clackamas, and the railroad people,
utterly taken back by the session of
court held on the train, surrendered
the liquor quite willingly.
The booze waa consigned to Oregon
City, according to Sheriff Wilson, but
the man suspected of being the owner,
made himself scarce before the train
reoched here. It was thought that
the plan waa to throw the booze from
the train at some point known to the
bootlegger, but he evidently got cold
feet before reaching here.
The search and seizure law does not
apply to passenger trains, and in or
der to put a stop to the heavy shlp
ments of booze through the county,
the officers have resolved to take the
court right along, l! necessary, and to
prepare and serve the proper papers
right on the train.
The kegs were wrapped in oil cloth,
Jammed into the grips, and crudely
tied up with rope, with old coats tied
on the outside. The camouflage re
suited in a" first-class representation
of a logger's outfit.
