WRONGFUL SEIZURE OF CAPE VINCENT BOAT In Connection With Liquor Smuggling Out of Kingston --Boat Returned. (Watertown, N. Y., Standard) Cape Vincent, Nov. 1.--~While the village became highly pleased yester- day at the amnouncement of Repre- sentative 'Thaddeus C. Sweet, of Phoenix that he would petition Con- gress for $30,000 for an addition to the 4ocal fish hatchery, the hubbub over lake trout, white fish and black bass propagation brought to the limelight 'again the seizure and re- turn of the boat owned by Williamy E. Dodge, an esteemed fishing guide and resident of this village. Whether the seizure and return of the boat by federal agents came from bungling in one of the many federal offices of the North Countr or whether the information upon which they swore a warrant came from sources that intended a "frame up" Lis a matter not quite pertinent to the generally conceded conclusion . that Dodge got the losing end of the deal. The village, as a whole, has ac- cepted that Dodge was innocently compelled to accept a financial loss that may range from $300 to $1,000 because somewhere along the line of federal red tape procedune, some major or minor officer bungled. Dodge, himself, an ardent dry advo- cate in spirit and practice, has ac- cepted his loss with passivity be- cause the clues that hé traced from the office of American consul at Kingston to the federal offices In the North stopped abruptly when it came to actual questioning the fed- eral officers for the basis upon which they swore out a warrant. u 4 Special Permit. Mr. Dodge obtained a special per- mit from the government for strip- ping lake trout of their spawn dur- ing the spawning season in the fall after the Canadian government re- fused the local fish hatchery the right to do so in Canadfin waters. The first and second years in the ex- periment of getting the lake trout during the spawning time were not productive owing to faulty siene nets and the village in its entirety watch- od with keen interest the develop- ment of a special net which Mr, Dod perfected. This year Dodge was assured that his time and efforts would be repaid as the net apparent- ly functioned well. The spawning beds are at the head pf Carleton Is- land in American waters where he is now engaged in stripping the trout. Dodge expended in time, money and effort about $3,000 in addition to bullding a $3,600 boat. This boat | is nameless, being registered under the licemse mumber 2208-Y. Some however have called it the "Billie" and that name became the centre of controversy after the seizure, Warrant for Seizure. . . On September 28th, a Mr. Welch, an agent, appeared here with the warrant for the seizure of the boat on the charge of tramsporting booze trom Kingston to Oswego, August 11th. » Welch conferred with local fpeople and found that Dodge had ap excellent reputation here and was dry in sentiment and practice; in short he was convinced that a mis- take had been made and so reported to his superiors without. seizing tie boat. A day or two later an agent by the name 'of Day appeared with the proper authority to seize the boat which he promptly did. sent along his own me- chante to guide the boat down the river and generally care for her as it was of peculiar construction, par- tienlarly adapted for his business. "Two weeks later bis boat was return- ed from the North. In the meantime Dodge had gone to Ogdensburg to confer with the officials who told him that a boat named "Billie" bearing license num- bar 2208-Y had cleared from King- ston to Oswego logded with 80 cases of whitkey and on this basis they Came to Consul Here. Dodge naturally denied the atega- tions and attempted to explain that a mistake had been made. This Dodge then went to Kingston and conferred with the customs officials pointing out that a mistake had been made 2s he was able to prove that on August 11th big boat was engaged in proper fish- ing routine and was not In King- - THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG {ast -week--in- attendance--at-the big} Coliseum.

To fur- ther substantiate this and to ascer- tain if the Canadian officials had for- warded false information to this side Dodge went to the American consul. Here he found the first definite clue of any. The consul showed him the telegram he had sent to Speeial Agent Norwood of thegFederal forces with the detailed information but in- stead of telling of Dodge's boat It read that a boat named "Billie" had cleared from Kingston with the whiskey cargo. The clearance pap- ers had no record of the license num- ber as charged by the American agents. Inasmuch as Dodge's boat is not named Billis by official registra- tion and the much mought boat did- not clear under the license number 2208-Y as would have been required if Dodge had cleared with his boat it was guite evident that the infor- mation between the time it was furnished by the consul and the time it went onto the warrant for the seiz- ure of the boat bad been badly garb. led. 3 Boat Ret .
