Rebat ing Charged Double Pipes in Distillery Case
Government witnesses tracing shipments of grain reveal excess over reports that allegedly caused a loss of 112,240 in revenue. Letters under fictitious names were used to conceal transactions, with the Dry Bark Distilling Company linked to saloonkeepers in the scheme. Evidence includes references to barrels and shipments, and testimony points to the Ullty Wis operation. The proceedings expose suspected pilferage and falsified records, with authorities pursuing links to a distillery network and revenue theft.
