An overwhelming number of steady customers at the drug store at 178 Briggs ave owned by Adam Buc-zumskl aroused the suspicions of the law abiding citizens in the neighborhood and led to the arrest of the owner last night on a charge of violating the liquor law. With the rush of business there was a sudden rise to a drink known as cherry smash, consisting of cherry syrup, water and alcohol.

Complaints to Police Headquarters had it that the druggist was selling alcohol without prescriptions. Officer Michael Kelly stood on the corner opposite the drug store last night and watched the customers filing in and out. Some carried small bottles wrapped up neatly to disguise their contents. He entered the store, he claims, just In time to see Michael Gillies make a purchase of a pint of alcohol. The price was $2.

Gillies scented trouble when the officer asked the druggist about prescriptions and hotfooted It down the street. The, druggist was placed under arrest.

GAY PAYS A VISIT. Stanhope's triumph was short-lived. His downfall began with a deluge of servants' gossip which could not be despised or passed over as it. might have been in the old days. Phelps, the dismissed lady's maid, had distinct grievance and aired it to a friend of hers who happened to hold a responsible position on the police force.

She mentioned Dr. Middleton's name, and that eminent nerve specialist, was taking no chances with his reputation. To hush up the details of this curiously postponed wedding was impossible. They leaked out in every direction. The registrar's clerk made a timely discovery.

It was a newspaper reporter, scenting unusual copy, who gave. Stanhope the clue to beat it hard and fast out of England while the going was still fairly good. He took his revenge with him, as far as Gay Desmond was concerned. She was left high and dry, a wife but no wife, a slave to drugs and utterly broken when deprived of their mastery. The woman looked like being cured by sheer force of circumstances and things might have turned out very differently had she been poor or of less positive appetites.

She look to prowling about in holes and corners of the great metropolis. Many small fish had escaped the net that the police were drawing in. Gay caught, one of these. He was a rat-eyed little tobacconist named Rahinowsky in Theobald's and she had come upon him quite by chance, for hand in hand with her craving for drugs wovfc an insatiable desire, to spy upon Donald Traill. Habinowsky recognized her for what she was.

as readily as one member of a secret ocioty knows his brother. After she had bought a package of cheap cigarettes from him he proffered other wares. Gay now felt triumphant. She was all ready for Stanhope when he returned with his threats and demands. She was no longer dependent upon him and she "felt elated at the prospect of defying him.

Her mind had bee concentrated for a long time on the hunt for drugs, but Donald still held his place in it and her curiosity eonc-ning him became too great to be borne. The second time she came to Rabin-owsky's she walked through Grey's Inn inclosure and looked up at, his windows, which told her nothing. Then a brilliant idea occurred to her. She would pay a visit to her old friend Joyce. i Gay did not know that Joyce had been married and was now li-vng with her husband at Harbor House.

She went first to the little shop, whicn had blossomed out tremendously. She entered the shop ostensibly to price a negligee. Neither Joyce nor Millie came forward to serve her, but a strange girl in black silk who had the deferential manner of the experienced saleswoman. After a few questions Gay learned quite a lot of things; tht Miss St, Clair was now Mrs. Maclean and that Miss Sayres had had a bad accident from which she was making a slow recovery at her sister's house.

Obtaining the address of Harbor House, Gay betook herself thither. Her lips curled contemptuously as she, thought of Joyce in the role of a good Samaritan's wife. This Terence Maclean must hi! singularly simple young man. Very likely he imagined that he had made a reformed character of happy-go-lucky Joyce. Well, of course, Joyce was clever.

These reflections brought Gay to Harbor House where she, was informed that, Mrs. Maclean was in, and she was shown to a small but cozy sitting-room on the first floor. A quick glance around showed her the whole building, cording to 1 lie man i for only Returns "Broke," but He's Going Back to Tahiti Marriage Easy, Divorce Easier No H. C.

Chicago, Aug. 1 1 -Serious threats to traffic by refusal of trainmen lo move trains at points troops arc on guard, renewed outbreaks of violence resulting in several deaths and the possibility of walkouts by maintenance of wav men on various roads marked the progress oi the strike oi shopGrafts employees as railroad heads and union leaders gathered for conferences today to consider separately President Harding's proposal for ending the strike. Members of the Big Four transportation brotherhoods, upon which train movements depend, were authorized by their chiefs to suspend work if they consider strike conditions and the presence of soldiers at terminals and junction points "unbearable." Western divisions ot the Atchison, Topcka and Santa Fa were threatened with a tieup of transcontinental trains by refusal of engineers, firemen, conductors and trainmen to operate trains while troops were stationed along the line where outbreaks occurred earlier in the strike.

At other centers1 throughout the country similar situations threatened. Switchmen joined the trainmen in their protests against working under guard and the. situation on the Santa Fe. at Needles. Barstow and other California points was further aggravated when the entire yard force at Fresno left its post, the men notifyng the, company they would refuse to return until armed guards were removed.

Conferences between Santa Fe officials and union leaders were held following joint meetings of "Big Four" Brotherhood men, and although no trains had been annulled early today, several Eastbound passenger trains were held up at Barstow. Reports from Bakersfield, indicated the walkout would spread from California lo Arizona and Xew Mexico points on the Santa Fe. Switchmen at Moberly, re. turned to work after short walkout, but, firemen there voted not to aid in the movement, of freight trains until the demands of the striking shopmen were met.

Two men were drawned early today off the foot of Bodine West Brighton, Staten Island, in probably the strangest tugboat, accident that has ever occurred In New York Harbor.

The towing hawser of the, tug Clarence Rowland became fouled on her own line. The tug "tripped" on the line and rolled over as quickly as one might roll over a floating log. The Clarence Rowland, owned by a Manhattan towing contractor of the same name, had been, according to the only eyewitness of the accident, Al Roschefska, a. night, watchman for the National Dry Dock Company, warping barges out of the slip at the foot of Bodine st. and taking them across the.

bay. At the time of the accident. (7:20 she had in tow the Texas Oil Company's steamer Roanoke. In swinging the Roanoke about, in order lo point her bow in the desired direction, the tug, which was attached to the steamer by a long hawser from the bow, allowed the slackened hemp to sink under her keel. Evidently the tug crew did not notr this and when full steam ahead was ordered the Clarence Rowland, as might be said, "lifted herself by her AMUKKMKNTS MANHATTAN.
