OLD SLEUTH At
WORK HERE
IMPORTANT WITNESS IN CASE
TRACED THROUGH MARSHAL
HBNDRY'S INFORMATION.

What George w. Hazen of the Unit
ed states Secret Service considers a
very valuable piece of secret service
work, is acknowledged by him in a let
ter to United States Marshal Hendry.
This consisted in securing and furnish
ing to Hazen by Hendry, of Informal
ton which enabled Hazen to locate and
secure what was considered a very i'm
portant witness on the trial of Dim
mick, formerly cashier of the United
states Mint at San Francisco, who is
charged with the embezzlement of $50,
600.
This important witness was Andrew
j. Headrick, who was in Honolulu for
time and worked for the Honolulu
Rapid Transit and Land Company.
Headrick was a street car conductor
in San Francisco and Dimmick fire.
quently rode on his car Dimmick had
attracted Hendricks attention by the
fact that he nearly always carried a
dress suit when he rode on the car,
and on one occasion, perhaps more
Headrick had had occasion to lift this
dress suit case, to move it out of tine
aisle, or out of the way of other pas
sengers, and had found it exceedingly
heavy, The theory of the prosecution
was that Dimmick, who as cashier had
access to the vaults of the mint, re-
moved bags of coin from the vault, and
carried them away in the dress suit
case, and in support of this theory
Hendricks testimony was very impor-
tant.
Some time before the second trial of
Dimmick, Headrick disappeared from
San Francisco, and United States Mar
shals in various places were requested
to be on the lookout for him. Marshal
| Hendry located him as having been
employed by the Rapid Transit Com
pany, but at this time had sailed for
| Victoria, giving out that he was going
with a railroad survey party into the
mountains. Hendry secured a Sar
Francisco address which Headrick had
given an acquaintance here, and from
| this information Chief Hazen traced
him to Boston and secured his attend
| ance and testimony at the trial.

.CONSUMPTI TON OF
SUGAR GROWING
PER CAPITA IN THE UNITED
STATES Is GREATER THAN THAT
OF ANY OTHER COUNTRY.

The people Of the United states now
consume eight times as much sugar
per capita as they did in the first quar-
ter of the last century four times as
much as the average per capita dur
ing the decade ending with 1850 and
twice as much as they did i'm any year
prior to 1870 In the years Immediately
prior to 1926 the average consumption
of sugar was about s pounds Der ca
pita in the decade $4,000 about 10
pounds per capita, in the years imme-
diately prior to 1870 the average was
about 30 pounds per caplta (omitting
the war years, in which the consump-
ton was Light, from 1870 to 1850 It
averaged about 40 pounds per capita
from 1880 to $780, 80 pounds per capita;
in 1891 the figure was 66 pounds per ca
pita, and has ranged from so to 6S
pounds per capita since that time, the
/ figure for 1901 being 68.4 pounds. This
steady growth in the per capita con-
sumption of sugar is shown by some
figures which the Bureau of Statistics
Will present in the next issue on it's
annual volume, the Statistical Abstract
The per capita consumption has been
a matter of record during recent years,
but it has not been before practicable
to compare the per capita consump-
ton of recent years with that of ear
Tier years and to note the very rapid
increase in the quantity consumed by
each individual of the country.
This growth in the consumption Of
sugar is evidently, not confined to the
people of the United States. The in
crease seems to have been equally ra-
pid in other parts of the world, judging
from the figures of total production.
Figures recently published by the Bu-
reau of Statistics in it's monograph
The Worlds Sugar Production and
. Consumption" showed that the sugar
production of the world was eight
times as great as in 1910, the figure
for 1910 being 100000 tons and that
for 1900, S,S00,000 tons. This increase
in production, and consequently in con-
sumption, has come largely through the
/ development of the beet sugar indust-
ry, which increased from a production
of $4,000 tons in 1870 to 600 tons in
| 1850, S31 900 tons in 1870, ,402, 600 tons in
/ 1880 1888 600 tons in 1880, and $3.50, 600
tons in 1900 During the same time,
cane sugar production increased from
100000 tons in 1910 to 2,S5O,O0O tons
in 1900. Beets in 1910 supplied 4.35 per
cent of the total sugar product of the
world; in 1850 they supplied 1929 per
cent; in 1860, 20.53 per cent; in 1870, 34.40
per cent; in 1890, 6370 per cent; and in
1900 671 per cent.
/ The per capita consumption of sugar
in the United States is greater than
that of any other country, except the
United Kingdom, in which the con-
/ sumption ranges from So to 81 pounds
! per CAPITA against from go to 6S pounds
in the United States the figure of con-
sumption for 1900 in the United King
/ dom being 91.6 pounds per capita.
| The following table shows the per
capita consumption of sugar i'm the
United States and the principal Euro
pean countries in 1900, the latest avail
able year:

remaining on the Coast where he can
be apprehended.
McDuhie has been provided with a
photograph and detailed description of
the absconding treasurer. and will no
doubt, call on the San Francisco au-
thorties for assistance in running the
fugitive down. Chief of Police Wit
mann is an efficient officer, so there
seems an excellent prospect of Wright
being placed under arrest, if the fugi
tive remains in San Francisco any time
after the arrival of McDuffie.
Unless the fact of extradition pro-
ceedings having been begun was learn
ed, before the departure of the Sierra
last Tuesday, the Honolulu friends Of
Wright will be helpless to send warn
ing to him to lay low. The Coptic
which leaves here next Tuesday will
be the first boat to sail from Honolulu
for San Francisco. This will be seven
days later than the day that McDufiie
will reach San Francisco, so If no
warning were sent Wright on the same
steamship that carried McDuffie, the
prospects of the officer getting on
Wright'5 trail seem reasonably bright.
