Rum-runners here intimate that the seven boats captured by the United States patrol were simply decoys sent ahead to draw the attention of the waiting x navy while the real shipment of li unmolested to their ote Only one of the seven was heavily loaded. It carried 440 cases of ale. Only one man was captured when the seven small boats were seized and this, it is said here, tends to substantiate the decoy the- . The one man captured was John Blackson, Claim . Disputed The claim of Lieut. Martin W. Ras- mussen, in charge of the United Sta- tes coastguards, that the dry blockade was so complete he was satisfied no substantial quantity of liquor would get across, was disputed today.

Yesterday, how-' ever, was out of the ordinary be- cause of the tremendous velocity of trading in a score of issues. The hundreds of others listed om the exchange were quiet, and in gem- eral irregular, a 'few showing gains, a few losses at the close of the day. It was in such blue chips as International Nickel, Montgom- ery Ward, Adams Express, Radio, Studebaker, American Interna- tional and a few others that the main interest centred, and, fan- ned by the white heat of a specu- lative flame that appears to have once more spread to all parts of the country, these particular" issues swirled about, now up and now down, with a velocity that left the tape-watchers gasping.
