Bound Over in Reed Amendment Case on Clyde Liner Chippewa
Walter Russell and Columbus King, both colored, aboard the Clyde Liner Chippewa, were bound over after a preliminary hearing before U S Commissioner A S Williams on Reed amendment violations. They faced bonds of $300 each and were jailed awaiting trial after officers seized seven packages of alcoholic beverages during a Tuesday raid. They claimed NY origin and 65 cent per quart price, admitting transport to Wilmington but not selling within three miles. Representative L Clayton Grant argued, but the court stuck to the original decision. They will be tried at the next U S District Court term with potential penalties of up to $1,000 or six months’ imprisonment or both.
