New York.-William Loeb. jr., col.
lector of the port OF New York. has
approved the claim to moiety by Rich.
ard Parr, the deputy collector and
original informer in the sugar frauds
on the $2.1S5,iS6 paid into the United
States treasury by the American
Sugar Refining company as restitution
for duties evaded by underweighing.
According to the statutes regulating
such awards, Parr will receive mot
exceeding In amount one-half Of the
net proceeds" which will meal in this
case, il the claim Is approved by the
treasury department, approximately
81 ,000, 600. Mr.. Loeb approved the
claim only after a thorough investiga.
ton by Harrison Osborne, solicitor of
customs. He held that the claim was
valid in hat Parr, on November 20,
1907, discovered a steel spring which
was used by the company's checkers
to influence the weight of draughts of
sugar, and AYERS this laid bare the
scheme to defraud, and 1t was due to
the evidence obtained as the conse-
quence of the events Of November 90,
that the jury in the civil suit against
the company last spring gave a YER
dict of guilty, which was followed by
the paying of the penalty, $l35 4S6 .32,
and the restitution of 81, 000, 900 follow.
