en. Charles lluddinott was "akcti in
to custody, after the customs offl
1 a Is had made a search of his cab
in, and the charge of having liquor
in his possession in violation of the
Alaska Hone Dry law lodged against
him. 1
Last Saturday he was brought tie
fore I". S. Commissioner Ward for
a hearing, and he plead guili- to Un
charge. Judge Ward read the la'v
to the prisoner, and immediate!;
sentenced him to pay a fine of $30l>
and costs. This was too much for
Huddinolt to put up. so lie will pay
the tine at the rate of $2.00 per day
in the federal jail at Juneau.
Special investigator C.issel arr'v
ed up from Juneau on the Estebeth
on Tuesday aud. together with F. J.
Vandewall. collector of customs for
the port of Skagway. went over the
details of case, but found no evi
dence that would warrant holding
lluddinott as being implicated in the
breaking of the seal on the White
Pass car.
It is thought, however, that llod
dinott knows more than he is will
ing to tell relative to the theft of
the bonded liquor, and this may be
forthcoming when he is questioned
more minutely in Juneau.
Mr. Cassel took Huddinott to Ju
neau on the Estebeth.
