TO FIGHT RUM-RUNNING Of late years considerable rum- runving has been carried on across the 'border in the Thousand Island District, as multiplicity of the islands afford good seclusion and means of escape for those engaged in the business. Now that the season has again opened, United States prohibition agents are mak- ing plans for putting a stop to the passage of liquor across the inter- national border. Several patrol boats will guard this section of the St. Lawrence River this summer. Spotters are being employed, and Gananoque residents have been ad- vised that two of them are locat- ed on Grindstone Island, a large American island lying just in front of this town. It is from stores on this island that Canadians secure large gquantitie sf cigarettes, gaso- line, matches and other contra- band. The traffic is likely to be oceupy the cosy C.

RAILWAY REGORD MADE IN BRITAIN Non-Stop Run from London to Edinburgh and Glasgow London, May 12--A new world's railway record was set up by two secretly: arranged non-stop runs from London (Huston) to Edinburgh, (899% miles) and to Glasgow (401% miles). The records were made by two London Midland and Scottish Rail- way Company's "Royal Scot" express trains. Glasgow was reachell seven minutes ahead of time. As a rule the "Royal Scott" is di- vided at Symington, one part going to Edinburgh and the other to Glas- gow, but this time two separate trains ran leaving Euston within a few minutes of each other, The stops hitherto made at Carlisle and Sym- ington were both cut out. The London and North Bastern Railway Company had previously an- nounced that non-stop runs to Scot- land via Newcastle, would be made on and after Tuesday next. No announcement was made when the 'London Midland and Scottish trains left Euston that this challenge was to be accepted, but the officials at Carlisle, the 300 miles mark, were informed that the usual halt would not be made there in the afternoon. SYNDICATE: BACKS ANGELL CLAIM 'Promoter Promises $60,000, 000 for $50,000 Invest- ment in Venture London, May 12. -- "I have not yet decided whether 1 shall seize an- other house or houses as I did in the Brixton road, but I am consid- ering taking this line of action," said Mr. Allery, the 83-year-old claimant to the Angell estate mil lions, to a reporter. Mr. Allery stated that a $50,000 syndicate had been formed to sup- port his claim. The members of the syndicate would receive at least $62,- 500,000 in return for their $50,000 when Mr. Allery obtains the estate. The members included two peers, a general, a Court official, the head of a leading city firm of meat import- ers, and an influential licensed vict- ualler. Syndicate Chairman "The amusing thing is that the licensed victualler, who is to be the chairman of my syndicate, is a bro- ther of one of the ecclesiastical eom- missioners," said Mr. Allery. "They are going to get an enormous return on their money, but I can well afford to let them have twelve and a half million pounds, which is only a small portion of what my to- tal wealth will be. Ninety million pounds is about the total value of the estate. The sixty millionsswhich estimate, based on the fact that it is sixty square miles in area."
