Butte. Mont.. July »•.- That Hut
Is one of the stations on a re
route maintained by vendors
bring illicit drugs iro n Canadian
points, was the statement recently
A. J. Pritchard, a special a :ont
the internal . revenue de art:uent.
who has been investigating the traf
fic in narcotics in Butte. Mr. Prit
chard said the traffic tn
Butte
amounts to thousands of dollars each
tponth and that the addicts in this
city run into the nundreds.
During his stay in Butte, the spe
cial agent obtained evidence which
resulted in the arrest of Dr. G. D.
Bryant, a physician of Butte, and
Wan Sing and Quong Chung, the
latter two Chinese, on federal
charges. The homes of the Chinese
were raided and a quantity of opium,
with full layouts fur smoking, were
seized.
shipments of drugs
"Tracing
which are sold in Butte, we have
discovered that narcotics are being
laid down here at a host of >14.48
an ounce.” said Special Agent Prit-
chard. "The drugs then are put out
to intermediaries at $80 an ounce,
and these men in turn sell the stuff
at prices which vary up to $450 an
ounce. The latter figure is reached
when the vendor sells magnesia and
milk, with a small quantity of drug
mixed In.
"The drugs which are being ped
dled In Butte come here through
Sweet Grass. Great Falls and Helena
over a regular route. From Rutte,
the route leads to Boise. Idaho, and
then to Salt Lake City, where a route
from the south connects. The drug's
which are brought In from the south
cross the Mexican line at Tia Juana
and follow a regular route to Salt
Lake. The. ring of vendors travels
over these lines on regular sched
ules. similar to those of traveling
men. and rarrr considerable quanti
ties for distribution -In the larger
cities of the west.”
