SEARCH FOB DBITKR
Tba police are now searching for the
driver?;of a for-hlre car carrying away
two cases of liquor from a river landing
near Linnton, and the arrest of two Ma
lum from a coasting steamer is ex
pected Thursday when the vessel .docks
in Portland. V '
Scott was defiant when be appeared
before the chief, refusing to divulge the
names of those concerned, and Jenkins
quickly relieved him of his. star.
According to the other wq police
men, i while they", were riding towards
Llnntdn one night last week, they en
countered Scott, apparently awaiting
speeders. Scott at that time was off
duty. ; . ' ; .
When they . returned-' to the- spot an
hour later. Scott was still waiting, and
nearby stood, a for hire touring car.
Scott told the others he was awaiting
for bootleggers.
They, "awaited with Scott who had
told: them. Wiles said, that one of the
bootleggers 'was armed and might give
fight., ".
, Presently a row boat came to, the
landing and the two-men who were In
it. after 'talking with Scott, carried the
esses.; of liquor to the waiting automo
bile, w Wiles BUggeeted getting the police
patref,-;; but Scott, they say, demurred,
sayjr&t he did not intend to arrest the
booiteggers, but to spilt the liquor with
Wllei Jnd Matthews.
CANT F1SD I.IQTOR
" These men claim they refused to have
anything more to do with the. case. -The
boatmen were permitted to row away,
and when the automobile started to
town, .Scott followed on his motorcycle.
The police have since been unable to find
what was- done-wHtt the -liquor:'
. Th-;boa;men, it was ascertained Wed
nesday: were from a coasting steamer,
supposed ty an oil tanker. . The steamer
left .port the following day. but was , at
Astoria afralft. Wednesday-afternoon, and
the police, will meet . the boat when it
reaches the dock.,,
Wilea and Matthews are' censured fey
Chief Jenkins for not arresting Scott and
all theother parties concerned.. .....
Scott had been on the police' "force
three years 'and was considered an-efficient
motorcycle officer.. ?-'''

Canned Fruits Are!
High; Buyers Take

, Although the public is eager" for canned
fruits, big. Eastern buyers of food prod

cauee they 'feel " the' public will not. pay
high prices.- -In-addition, the banks are
discouraging all , speculative ! . buying,
which is eliminating a strong market
factor, 'according -to Walter' A. Frost,
president of A. Rupert, Inc., .one of the
largest packers in the West, who has
just returned from a business trip.
j Should tha -situation clear , this fall.-as
it may. Frost said. Jobbers may find
themselves' Bh'ort on supplies, with no re

ttons of the nation, including the New
York, Boston, St. Louis and Kansas City
districts, were a unit in declaring prices
of canned fruits were too high," said
Frost. "For this reason they are not
anticipating the normal demand.
"Indeed, in the larger industrial cen
ters they anticipate a decline wherever
the car shortage and part time opera
tion of various enterprises are cutting
into the payrolls." -
