$3,624,121 LOST
TO THE nation
Suit Began Against Sugar
Trust for Short Weights
In Imports.
ST 100000 ON DUTY ALONE.
THE CHARGE THAT SCALES ARE
TAMPERED WITH DISCOVERY
YEAR AGO.

New York, Nov. lon information
supplied by the customs officers Unit
ed States District Attorney Stimson
has brought seven suits against the
American Sugar Refining company to
recover S3,624, 121 for forfeitures and
back duties on imports OF sugar since
1901 weigher at the docks of Have
meyer & Elder in Brooklyn on scales
which, it was alleged by the govern
ment, had been adjusted SO as to give
short weight.
The suits we're filed last month by
the district attorney in the circuit
court but this did not become known
until Monday. when the company put
/ in an answer denying it had been
cheating the government byg usin
crooked scales.
| In one of the seven suits filed the
government seeks to recover 81, 200. 600
as the amount of the duties which the
government failed to collect on certain
importations from Cuba and Java be-
tween Dec. I, 1901, and Nov. 81, 1907.
Asks for Forfeiture Value.
In the six other suits the govern
ment, under section . of the act of
1890, asks for the forfeiture value of
the goods on which the duties have
been fraudulently underpaid, two i'm
portations involving more than $500
coo and other amounts ranging from
100000 to 100000. the total amount
of the forfeiture values being S2,124,.
12115.
The complaints in these suits allege
that the company caused the scales on
which the customs officers weighed
the sugar ''to be so affected by a GER
tain instrument as to register less than
the true weight" The forfeiture val.
lie is the value OF shipments with the
duty paid.
The discovery that the scales had
been fixed" wa made. it is alleged
last November. These scales had been
in use for fifteen years and on them
was weighed practically all the sugar
brought into this port in that time
The steamers bringing the sugar &c
direct to the Havemeyer & Elder docks
in Williamsburg and the sugar is TAX
en- off in baskets and placed on the
scales. There are seven of these
scales, with customs officer anC
checker for the company stationed al
each. The customs men discovered
the nature of the scales. it is said

ORGANIC CHANGES

Acting Governor Mott-Smith stated
this morning that he felt certain that
the proposed amendment to the Or
ganic Act, to allow railroad companies
in this Territory to borrow money on
the credit of the Government, had not
been introduced in Congress by Dele
gate Kuhio The draft of the proposed
amendments to the Organic Act, as
submitted to Congress, did not con-
tain this feature and Mott-Smith be-
lieves that Governor Frear decided not
to ask for its incorporation.
Secretary Mott-Smith also suggested
the correction that the amendments tc
the Organic Act and other legislation
were being introduced by Delegate Ku.
hio and not by the Territorial Exc
cutive.

RESIGNATION

Chairman Hustace had announced
to the Board of supervisors, a few min
utes to nine last night, that he knew
of no more business to come before
them
Supervisor Fern then rose and said
he had a matter to present Forthwith
he read his resignation as a member
of the Board
Il am very sorry to see this, Mr..
Fern" said Mr. Hustace. Is there no
way you can hold on?"
II have to resign to take my new
office was the reply. The law will
not allow me to hold TWO Offices"
of course we cannot prevent Mr..
Fern or anyone else from resigning,"
the chairman unused. Il do not see
anything in the County Act to compel
it, but if ne thinks it is necessary it's
up to the board to take action. Gen
tlemen, what is your pleasure?'
A long pause ensued and then Mr..
Archer said he did not know what
should be done.
Chairman Hustace thought the re
signation should go to the governor
who had by law to fill the vacancy.
IF the Board refuses to accept my
resignation | will have to go up to the
governor" Mr. Fern rejoined
II refuse to entertain the resigna-
ton" quoth the chair.
II must make my appointments be-
tween December 1 and January l." Mr.
Fern continued. IF it is not done
right they will have me up before the
courts again"
Mr.. Archer thought if the Board had
not the right to appoint a successor il
had not the right to accept the resigna-
ton
The chair then ruled that the re.
signation be received and placed or
file So it stood unaccepted, leaving
/ the next move to the Mayor-elect.

asts in aviation arrived here today
from Havre. They were CORTLAND Field
Bishop, president of the Aero Club of
America, and Frank S. Lahm, father
of Lieutenant Frank p. Lahm, one of
the United States army's specialists in
aeronautics.
Speaking of the progress of aviation
Mr.. Bishop said; Il purpose to do all
| can to arouse enthusiasm in this
country in the new field It is de.
plorable how little interest is mani
tested here in It, In France everybody
is wild over it,"
Mr.. Lahm had this to say: THE ex-
perimental stage Of flying has been
passed and we have arrived at the time
of practical demonstration. Aviation
Is going to have a great moral effect
because when you know that a man
with dynamite may be floating above
your house it makes you think. In the
spring l think that there will be aero
plane flights from France across the
English channel and back"
Both Lahm and Bishop highly praised
the achievement of Wilbur Wright with
his aeroplane in France.
