Pirates and Storms Stir Rum Running Chaos at Sea
New York reports from Nassau describe raids by pirates and storms disrupting rum-running ships off the Atlantic coast. The Vincent A. White, bound for Miquelan, carried 10,600 cases of liquor hoarded near New York. Canadian, Swedish, and British craft are noted raiders, with barge and schooner crews targeted. Prohibition agents seize mail and prepare to arrest the skippers and crews as vessels run aground or are driven ashore by mountainous waves. The Ik-12090, owned by Michael Laurie of Brooklyn, is suspected to be in the rum-running trade though no evidence of illicit cargo was found aboard.
