New Tork, Aug. 2S. Governor

that the ag'gTegate wealth of jthe;

The - crowd was so huge . that ,many

demonstration lasting nearly five min

-Cox's attack on .the'; Republican cam
paign fund was praised by William G.
McAdoo, speaking; at the banquet.
"In your -. Pittsburg i speech you -directed

Andrews denied any knowledge- of
the still at the time of his arrest, the
agents reported, but they followed, a
trail from the hidden still to a slaughter
house operated by the accused man and
found here a quart battle1 of the same
brand of spirits contained In the barrel.J
In a barn on the place they found ' a
dozen packages of hope and a quantity
of caramel 'dye, as a coloring for corn
whiskey. There -was also a blow torch
and a-large piece of solder, presumably
used In repairing the still- , .- . '
Andrews ostensibly conducted a slaugh

ers and settlers through aj wide district
in : the vicinity. -' Neighbors complained
some time ago. that Andrews . and his
son - had sold whiskey in ithe neighbor
hood of Gresham. and : frequent visits
to i the Andrews home by automobile
parties confirmed " their suspicions that
the liquor was manufactured by him.
The agents had. made two - previous
trips in search of the Andrews still,
following both the right and left forks
of Bear creek to their sources. :

Saturday afternoon they1 went to May

had proceeded about 400 yards they de

of sour jiash. ' . , t - '. ::
officers followed the soent to the
vlefnity of the Andrews place and finally
located its source in the dugout. A can

Irish women sympathizers to inspire
strikes n this country to prevent move-,
ment of British goodn. .

British shipping at New York and that
they planned to organize a complete
boycott against Brttibh goods as a pro
test again t the imprisonment of lxrd '
