in review the facts heretofore omitted.
Great Fight
Only In Beginning.
The fight will go on with the news
papers of New York or without them.
The 'Roly Poly Six and Splitter have
already answered at the bar to Grim
inal indictment. They will be tried as
speedily as the suit against their em-
ployer for sequestered duties. There
is no fear Of the Sugar trust IN the
office of the district attorney, in the
office of the collector Of the port, in
the Office of the President of the United
States Every official whose connection
with these dock frauds can be traced
win be hailed into court that the jury
may determine how high up the crime
reached. Honest newspapers, officials,
jurymen Will alike find bulldog spirit
for this case in this definition Of the

KehOe Caught
One Time Before.

Evidence was introduced that in 1887
Kehoe was caught hanging weight
inside the scale house for the purpose
Of bearing down the scale after the
weigher had balanced it in the morn
ing. The witness was a weigher named
ConIon and Kehoe admitted on the
stand that Conlon had found such a
weight though he denied all personal
knowledge OF il.
The sixth method was simply to take
the sweepings right under the Govern
ment's nose and not weigh them at all.
Each of these practices was discoV-
cred and corrected by the surveyor OF
the port, Gen. James s Garrison, or his
deputy, Mr. Vail. The trucks were
STAMPED with ~. s" The Das ance ball
was locked in place. Water on the plat
form was occasion enough not to weigh
upon it The transmission bar was en-
cased so that the checkers foot could
not reach il. SWeepings were watched
And now that the corset stay has been
found through the Treasury Depart
nent, checkers are excluded altogether
from the scalehouses.
Is il true that this apparent indul-
gence Of the American Sugar Refining
Company through seven practices ques-
after year, indicates compliance by
United States autEorities2 1t may. But
On a diligent examiration of the office
of collector of the part am rather sur
prised that there has not been more
compliance than that there should have
been any. The civil service has been

"horn-smuggled." Influence was as Do-
tent inside the old customs house as
outside. Until this year the very office
OF collector has been the bait for every
political worker who could flip himself
hare enough to lunge at it.
Two Officials
Good and Honest
But there is no evidence that either
the deputy or the surveyor was any
thing other than a good subordinate
and an honest man. The service gets its
policy from the collector and from the
Secretary of the Treasury. If the Sugar
trust was not to be pressed too hard it
was not to be pressed too hard-that
was all there vas to il. So device after
device was adopted to prevent what
the attorneys for the company call
discrepancies and nothing else much
was done. The port OF New York Is q
big port. The surveyor must be the out
door executive in tie collection of S22o.-
OGe,uO0 a year He can be kept busy with
MS subordinates without sitting around
on dock to watch every "Roly Poly
Six that somebody suspects. 1t is a
pleasure to certify that General Clark
son and Mr.. Vail are now giving loyaI
and resourceful support to a collector
who means business.
But it is noteworthy that the latest
light-fingering on the docks OF the VIII
iiamsburg refinery was not discovered
through the New York customs house.
On the contrary the hunt was conceived
IN Washington and directed throughout
from the White House. There is stiU
an intimate knOwledca Of +ba o,se- &,

winch refuses to be "buffaloed' still
hnds its source in the Executive.

Discouraged
By the Newspapers.

A newspaper man finds It hard to
write down that the greatest discourage
ment in all this fight came from his
own profession. Yet that Is She fact.
A prime object of the prosecutions now
pending has been that this kind of
crime be made as contemplate as anv
other. A prime object in the civil ac-
ton against the American Sugar Rein
ing Company was that so rich and
powerful a corporation might be made
to answer before the bar OF American
public opinion But both these objects
have Up TO this time been strangely de-
feated.
Without attempting to explain the sit.
uation among New York newspapers,
the reporter for this paper sets forth
these facts;
That less was printed on the discovery
Of these dock frauds and the return of
the verdict than on second-rate suits in
city courts; that there were printed in
several of the papers fulI-page adver-
usements reading simply. THE Amer
lean Sugar Refining Company, Offices
Wall Street, New York; that only the
New York Evening Post published such
accounts of such a trial as il might
have been expected to publish, and very
brief accounts were expected of the
Post; that only that newspaper and the

DETECTION OF THE SUGAR FRAUDS
ELIMINATION OF A GREAT WORK

he set out for Washington to inform
the authorities. Assistant Secretary
Beekman Winthrop Joined hands with
Mr.. Loeb in the cause Dy appointing
Whalley a special agent. The newcom-
eT then set off, in November, 1907, to
obtain employment on the docks as
representative of the ship owner whose
cargo was being unloaded.
His task was to stand before one of
the scalehOuses and count the bags as
they came across the dock. In this
position he claims to have noticed that
the companys checker, Hennessy,
would drop his left hand every time
draft was weighed. This led him to
think that kicking the beam. rolling
the ball. throwing water on the scales,
hanging weights on the upright, substi-
tuting light trucks for heavy trucks,
and slipping sweepings past unweighed
had been superseded. So he arranged
the signal which Parr and Brzezinski
were to receive that eventful morning
of November 20.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1909-05-23
Loeb and Parr
Work Side By Side.

Mr.. Loeb and Parr in a certain sense
worked together. The Secretary to the
President had brought down from New
York rather clear ideas how the opera
ton Of the New York customs house
could be improved. With the idea that
General Clarkson could help he had
been active in having that gentleman
made surveyor, back in the days when
Mr.. Loeb was assistant secretary. Now
Parr was probing frauds wherever he
could find them, the weaknesses of the
service were spreading themselves out
FOR both men to see, and both of them
were turning back, as often as excep-
