Now, every sack of sugar differs
as TO quality. The coarser grained it
is and the drier, the higher will be the
test. Near the bottom of the sugar
sack there may be dampness from
bige water. Stabbed there, the test
will be low. Often on top may be
packed lot of sticky sugar, and stab
bed there the test also will be Glow.
The Government regulation pre-
cribed that in order to be fair the
stabber should be run diagonany
across the sack But that was what
the trust wished to avoid when it said

with hogshead sugar, making a low
sample was much easier. The molas-

a stabber inserted in that lower layer
would get a much lower grade than

CORSA THREATENED, THEN DIS
MISSED.
After accepting brides until they
amounted to about $50 Mr. Corsa con-
cluded that he had better be honest and
reveal the plot He went to Charles H.
Treat, then Collector of Internal Reve-
nue., who had him appointed, and told
him of the rottenness. Mr.. Treat ad-
vised Corsa to tell the appraiser
Soon after this Appraiser Wakeman
called all the samplers before him and
talked to them sharply. Suspicion
fell upon Corsa as the person who had
revealed the bribery. He was informed
that some day he would be knocked off
the dock into the river and that he
would never be heard of again.
Then it was whispered that Wake
man would be removed and that his
successor would be George w. White
head. This was months before the ap-
polntment was made, but sure enough
Whitehead was appointed, and one of
ms first official acts was to summarily
remove Corsa.
Then began the war which showed
the power of the Sugar Trust and its
agents and the utter inability Of even
Secretary of the Treasury to combat
1t. Mr.. Corsa appealed again to Mr.
Treat, afterward United States Treas
urer, and while the latter worked to
secure the reinstatement, he was DOW
erless.
In March, 1902, following his dis
.missal, Corsa laid the facts before Sec
rotary Shaw, who has keenly felt the
edge of the Sugar Trust knife in his
presidential aspirations. So interest
ed was Mr.. Shaw in the matter that
he came to this city to hear the story.
For three hours he listened to Mr..

AT the end of that time Secretary

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-A chapter in
show that agents OF the trust openly
bribed samplers of the appraisers de-
partment on the docks, whe e they
took the samples from the newly ar
rived cargoes. reciting the summary
dismissal of an honest sampler and
telling OF the tying OF the hands Of
the then Secretary of the Treasury Les
lie Nj. Shaw, is published in the Even
ing Sun.
Henry c. Corsa, a former Govern
ment empoye and a vetel an of the
Civil War, served as a sampler for the
appraisers department in the early
part Of 1900. One of his duties was to
carry a tray of little pots, in which
samples had been placed to a locked
vault, where they were to remain I'M
til removed by the appraisers.
En- route, lie declares, he found that
the assistant samplers were actually
passing with their trays through Gel
lar near the docks, in which was the
trusts official briber. This man would
take the pots of samples in this Gel
lar, dump them out and refill them
from a hogsheai of damp, spoiled SUI
gar kept there for that purpose.
NUNS THE WORD; TAKE YOUR
BIT"
In telling his experiences as a sam
pier and the events which led up to
his dismissal Mr.. Corsa said:
Some times, when more ships were
in than the samplers could handle, we
assistants to the samplers were put at
this work. But ordinarily our duties
were to carry the trays Of samples to
the locked sheds, in which they were
placed until collected by the apprais-
ers' wagon.
1T was then | saw the assistants
taking their trays through the trust
agents cellar, and | was told: You're
in on this, old man; NUNS the word
there's money enough to go round in
it-dont be a squealer and take your
bit and shut up
AT first | took my tray along with
the others down to the agents cellar
and saw the samples dumped and the
spoiled sugar put in it's place. 1 didn't
understand just the meaning of it all
the first day.
But one day | was coming out OF
the Mushroom and another assistant
said to me: You've got your money,
old man; it's in your coat pocket. l
got mine, too See?'
And then this man pulled out some
bills. l felt in my pocket and sure
enough there was my roll of bills.
knew the trust agent well enough by
that time. l also knew the other
briber who kept tabs on the Williams
burg docks.
1T was after this first experience
with the money that the trust agent
got in position to deal with me more
directly. The system of cup samples
was done away with, and instead there
was substituted a system of 'stabbers.'
The sampler after stabbing a sack of
sugar would drop the sample into
locked busket, the only keys to which
were in the hands of the appraiser.
ANOTHER FRAUD METHOD.
Now, by that time l was pretty
regularly employed in taking samples.
The trust man would come along and
say: Now, don't give us the worst
of it-knock her down a point or two
and Wen see you fixed all right.

the hatchways. Above us was a head
