BOATMEN FINED.
ONE MAN PUTS UP.. STIFF FIGHT.
In prosecuting two boatmen be- fare Mr. Whyto Smith at the Kowloon Magistracy yesterday on charges of being in possession of 14 pounds of dutiable tobacco and 3 gallons of dutiable Chinese wine. Detective Sergeant Hum- phreys described the second do-
fendant as a man of tremendous strength, who had put up a fight and did not submit to arrest until the officers had exuerienced much dimculty.
It was stated that the wine and various parts of the defendants" tobacco ware found concealed in junk, which was lying in the Yau- mati Typhoon Shelter. During the course of the fight with the second defendant, who defied
arrast until threatened with a re- volver and a pole, a large quanti ty of spirits from one jar was spilled, otherwise the amount in the charge would have been more."
The Police found evidence of the wine having been brought into the Colony for sale here although the defendants had stated that they had purchased the spirit and tobacco for their own consump- Lion. The raiders scized 15 large bottles of wine and, as the junk had arrived the day before their visit, the boatmen must have die posed of most of what they had brought into the Colony.
The junk, according to Detec tive Sergeant Humphreys, was engaged by the Kwong Wah Hos
bal authorities to transport coffins from the Tung Kun District and the defendants were probably carrying on a trade in flicit con- traband as a side line.
Each defendant was fined $50 or one month's hard labour on the first charge and a further $20 or ∙14 days' hard labour on the second.
