CUSTOMS SERVICE

an importer, who had pleaded guilty Of
participation IN frauds. was reInanded
for sentence by Judge George c. Holt.
The indignant comment from Judge
Holt that Collector Loeb's action in re-
tanning self-confessed thieves in the Gus
toms service. was discredltable to the
government and an injustice TO honest
men, made some importers believe the
whole graft system could be ended by
fair course Of dealing IN Collector Loeb's
office.
The germ OF the whole trouble, they
said lay in the fact that the customs
officials have forced merchants to be
shifty who would rather be straightfor-
ward. Much more would be accomplish
ed, they considered, if the customs serv-
Ice was gone over with a rake than by
putting the onus Of the business on i'm
porters who had to pay or break.

did not sugar-coat the situation in the
least. Young Musicals guilt had been set
tied by the testimony of three men

Hutchinson, assistant weighers on the

they were dishonest men when they gave
evidence against the young Italian i'm

Before the end OF the trial Judge Holt
remarked: L want to refer 70 one mat

and that is the testimony OF these three
government witnesses 90 the effect that
in addition 10 their being promised i'm
munlty from prosecution IN this case. they
were promised retention in their offices In
the custom house. II IS necessary some
times that tho evidence OF accompllces
should be forgotten. and for that purpose
Il Is proper TO grant them immunity; but
never have heard before OF such prao-
tice as promising 10 continue men IN the
public service after they have confessed
the commission Of crimes in the Office.
and I desire 20 express the emphatic
disapproval Of this court TO any such
practice
In my opinion" continued the Judge,
1T not only discredits the government,
but Is unjust TO the honest members OF
the public service IN the same class 70

company OF men who have confessed that

William Loeb. IT., collector OF the port,

the thieves. Il was understood that
Judge Hollis rebuke applied to Mr.. Loeb.
Mr.. Loeb himself took IL that way He
issued a statement defending his course
on the score that IL was necessary TO
keep the three larcenlsts on his pay roll

made all that little more than a memory,
It was a Southern audience. as any
one would have known when Miss Ions

half dozen Southern melodies on the
piano. Then came Evolutionary selections,

JACK O'BRIEN MEETS
KETCHELL TONIGHT

PHILADELPHIA, June 9.-With both
men in fine physical condition, and with
the bout limited to six rounds. hot action
is looked for tonight when Jack O'Brien
and Stanley Ketchell meet in the ring
at the National Athletic Club, where
O'Brien three weeks ago outpointed Jack
Johnson, the negro champion. Both men
are determined to get the advantage,
and the fight is expected to be a fast
one from the first sound of the bell The
Philadelphian is anxious to wipe out the
virtual knockout administered by Ketch-
ell in their fight in New York some time
ago, and the western man hopes to
make a better showing In this fight than
he did in his former bout with Brien
There has been little or no betting on
the fight. In fact. there has been
surprising lack of interest in the contest
locally. The sale of tickets up to yester-
day was light. but 1t is expected that the
house will be crowded when the men
enter the ring.
Both fighters are said to have trained
faithfully for the battle. O'Brien has
been spending his time since his bout
with Johnson at King of Prussia. near
this city. Ketchell trained at Wood
lawn Inn, In New York.
