Drugs and chemicals are finding their way across the border..
[13 July 1900. Niagara Falls Town Welland Tribune]
A general awakening is taking place among the American customs and revenue officials all along the Niagara frontier. Evidence has been procured that certain drugs and chemicals are finding their way across the border without the knowledge of the officers, and Uncle Sam’s revenue is suffering. A number of special revenue officers have been posted at the Falls, Lewiston and Buffalo, to keep a look out for the smugglers who are taking the stuff in. A Buffalo druggist is supposed to have been acting as receiver for a gang of smugglers, but since a watch has been kept on him he has apparently severed his connection with the business.
