STATE v. JULES MELANSON.

A motor vehicle, containing a specially constructed compartment in which intoxicating liquors are illegally possessed and transported, is not subject to forfeiture under Laws 1919, c. 99, s. 6; whether such compartment is a "case or container" within the meaning of Laws 1919, c. 99, s. 10, is not considered.

SNOW, J.

The question raised by the state's exception is answered by the conclusion reached in State v. Nadeau, post, 183. The question whether the specially constructed compartment, as distinguished from the vehicle, was a cask, bottle, case or container within the meaning of s. 10 [57], is not presented and has not been considered.

Exception overruled.

YOUNG, J., dissented: the others concurred.
