FEDERAL LIOUOR AGENT TIPS OFF BOOTLEGGERS (Continued From Pace One.) was selling to the consumer for $4.50 a pint. The latter part of the week, jt was said, the figure ad vanced to $6 a pint. Hotel Places Order. -The wholesale price was quoted at from $60 to $65 a case of 24 pints. According to information received at the headquarters of the booze hounds today, one of the largest and most prominent hotels in Omaha yesterday attempted to place an order for "Sunny Brook" whisky, at $125 a case. The order was taken, but because of the uneasiness pre vailing among the dealers in Mis souri, it was said no definite prom ise was niade to deliver. It was re ported that the manager of the fashionable hotel agreed to take any quantityof wet goods at that figure. Customers in the hotel mentioned in the report, it was said, have of fered to pay from $12. to $15 a pint fr whjsky. . - ,. ' Tipped to Unload It was reported that in other sec tions of Omaha, dealers who had re ceived large consignments of whisky during the last several weeks were offering their goods at greatly reduced prices- These persons, it was pointed out. had no facilities to conceal the forbidden stuff, and had been tipped off from Winthrop to unload at any price. Lay Leak to Tischner, Herman Tlchner. former Omaha saloon keeper, who is alleged to have been the "middleman" between the liquor merchants of Missouri and the Nebraska wholesalers, is blamed for tipping off the details of the arrangements which prevailed between the Missouri representa tives of the liquor trust and the per sons who disposed of the product in the dry states. It was reported to Hyers that Tischner, who is acused of turning states evidence upon a promise that he would not be prosecuted, has been , approached by anxious mem bers of the syndicate, but that the former resident of Omaha turned a cold shoulder to his former friends and refused even to talk to tfiem. New Men Employed While it was announced here sev eral days ago that the state booze squad had been reduced greatly', it was said by a person close to the governor that a number of new sleuths were taken on two days after-well known agents had "outlived their usefulness' These new men, it was declared, are camping near the Missouri border with instruc tions tp cultivate the persons who are hauling whissky from Missouri to Nebraska. It is said the federal government man who already has gained the confidence of the "ring" has agreed to intrduce the new state agents and "square" them with the "proper persons." .' .' , EHAISERWILL BE PUT ON TRIAL ASA I V (Continued From Ft On.) Tuesday or Wednesday of the com ing week. ' The council of four has also given fresh consideration to the question of the Sarre valley, and' it is be lieved that the council has settled upon 4 plan to permit Germany to retain political sovereignty, while France will be given economic con trol of the mineral resources in that section for a limited time, supposed ly based upon a time allowance for the settlement of indemnity. France Claims 1814 Frontier. In laying her claims before council of four yesterday, France asked, first of all, that her boundaries, as hxd by the treaty of Parisr-May 30, 1814, be restored to her, with the Saar basin. In the Rhine province on the lett bank of the Rhine, it was stipu lated, the Germans should have po litical autonomy, but should not be permitted to establish fortifications, occupy the territory with armed forces nor control the railways. Thus the Rhine would serve France as a natural frontier. The treaty of Paris in 1814 pro vided that i France renounce her claims on Belgium and the left bank of the Rhine and return to the boun. daries as they existed in 1792, be fore the revolution. This compelled France to confine herself to the provinces of Alsace and Lorraine, west of the Rhine, those territories having been tinder French control since 1689. It was erroneously re ported from Paris last night that France had demanded her 1914 fron tiers, which would have excluded Al sace and Lorraine from her claims before the peace conference.
