Wilmington Is Tired of Being Poin-
i ted to as Bad Example, Forty
Vt-tfiia. Alic-Violaiors. ' ,
WHrnmitm, Sept.' 29th. -rForty-nine
alleged violators of the State -prohibi
tion law,' bae of the number a member
ot the grahd jury r hate - been indicted
and true kills'; found against them by
the grand Jury and 2s of the -nurobe
got word hat Ind'Ctmenta had beun re
turned against them and weot to Sher
iff Cowan s office, accepted service ,A
the capias' and gave the $600 bond n
CjuJredof them for appearance at next
term of Superior Court , when they are
to be.tried. Others to r be arrested to
day... Indeed in the list 'are some of
those, of ten referred to- as "the big
near beerideilers."
j While ft is not known just what evi
dence was brought out before the grand
jury, it is 'surmised that true bills were
returned largely upon the testimony of
agents of -the transportation com pa
nieswbo wefe summoned to tell of the
receipts of whiskey shipments in Wil
mington the past two. years, and that
of Chief of Police, John J. Fowler, who
was summoned to give a list of those
in .Wilmington who hold United States
license to sell spirituous liquors
Thect on of the grand jury did not
come as a surprise. It had been expec
ted. Even two or three weeks ago. be
fore the present grand jury was selec
ted, it was generally believed that a
strong effort would be made at this time
to secure 'action against some of the al
leged violators of the prohibition law.
The defendants themselves seemed not
the least bit surprised and apparently
had made-all arrangements to give
bonds. The amount of the bond was
suggested by Solicitor Henry E, Shaw
an 1 is the largest that haB been re
quired in this county in such cases since
the law went into effect.
The public was w well prepared for
the action against the alleged violators
that even the announcement that a
grand 'juror was among, the-number
ertaied no great amount of surprise,
though the fact that a member of such
a body was indicted by bis fellow mem
bers on so serious a charge was gener
ally remarked upon. .
