Detroit, July . .6.--The triple blockade of the United States bor- der patrol, coast-guard and pro- hibition units opposite the export docks at Amherstburg, which has balked attempts of 18 rum boats to bring liquor to this side fllicit- 1y, has caused 'four vessels to dump their cargoes. Government officials stated that more than 3,000 cases of liquor were thrown overboard today by the rum-runners who were hem- med in between Canadian customs regulations preventing their re- turn to the Canadian docks after they had cleared, and the United States customs blocking the un- lawful tramsportation of liquor to this side, A fifth boat of the blockaded fleet had engine trouble which re- sulted in the burning of the craft from which B50 sacks of liguor were tossed overboard, it also was learned today. Thirteen rum boats in Canadian waters off Amherstburg still are waiting for a chance to make the dash for the AmeFican side thresigh the blockade. The blockade on the Detroit river resulted in « seizure today. One 36-foot lugger attempted to land at Ecorse and was seized by coastguardsmen who confiscated 180. cases of beer and 11 half- barrels of beer. The rum runners made their escape after abandon- ing the craft near a boat well.
