Chief Vollmer and Officers DOCKGP and Gladstone Make a DO- SCOIlt Oll MP. and MP8. John Dennis. A Table Spread For Customers. Owing to the strong fight being made in favor of no license at South Norwalk Mayor Lee decided to strictly enforce the law In regard to selling liquor, on election day. With this in view Chief William Vollmer stationed his force about the city So that the saloons in the center of the city could be kept under strict surveillance. ’ Ofiicer Decker was stationed on Water street, and soon his attention was attracted to the number of persons going in and out of the boarding house kept by Mr. and Mrs. John H. Dennis, at the corner of Water and Haviland streets. He reported the matter to the Chief who decided to make an' investi- gation. Summoning Ofiicer Gladstone the trio viSIted the house and after effect- ing an entrance began a search of the premises. On going to the cellar the officers found a. table on which was a lighted lamp and two bottles of whiskey in readiness for customers. About the room were thirty-seven empty cases of lager, which the ofiicers sampled and found to be fresh beer. An extensive search of the building fniled to reveal either Mr. or Mrs. Den- nis. The officers searched high and low but could find no trace of either of the parties. Word was left with 01:6 of the boarders by Chief Vollmer. cré dering them both to appear before Justice Barrett to-day. This was the only raid made by the police during the day, and as far as known was the only violation of the liquor law In South Norwalk. Several intoxicated individuals were about the streets, but it is thought that they either obtained their liquor on Saturday or bought it at some saloon on the outskirts of the city.
