= NORFOLK. VA. April 2S.--Judge
Hanckel. sitting In the Corporation
Court today to receive applications
and grant licenses for the conduct
OF the liquor business in Norfoix for
the next year, did larger one days
business than the court has ever be-
fore done On the first day devoted to
liquor business. The Anti.Saioon
forces who played such a prominent
part last year In their contest to re-
strict the saloon business In Norfolk.
were today conspicuous by their ab-
sence. not one representative Of the
TEMPERANCE people appearing In court.
They are now working to close up all
saloons In the city By a local option
election, and they decided To make
no appearance In court today.
Judge Hanckel up to this time has
neither granted new license nor de.
MED an old one.
At the present time there are about
145 saloons In Norfolk. Some two.
thirds Of these secured licenses to-
day. Judge Hanckel was not on the
bench after 2 y, m. He will sit again
tomorrow beginning at 10 a. m. to
hear those applications that were not
presented today.

NEW YORK, April 29.-The Amer
lean Sugar Refining Company OF
New Jersey and the New York Cor
pOratiCn of the same name today paid
into the treasury of the United States
$685.. 900, completing a payment ag-
gregating over $2,134.0OO in settle
ment of all civil claims arising out
of the fraudulent weighing Of sugar
on the docks Of the refineries in
Bro klyn and Jersey City. The COM
panies further agree to give up their
right Of appeal.
The settlement was made upon the
advice of the company's lawyers. A
statement from the latter was made
public tonight in which they say that
the settlement seemed wise because
of the fact that the government had
threatened otherwise to bring other
suits fer amounts reaching nearly
- ZOO, 900.
The settlement. while it discharges
all the civil claims made by the gov
eminent against the companies, does
not prevent the bringing Of criminal
prosecutions against the men respon-
sible for the use Of the fraudulent
device, through the use Of which false
weights were recorded

RICHMOND, VA. April 29.-Henry
Fairfax, of Loudoun county, president
of the Virginia State Fair Association
and twice a member of the state

MED most emphatically that there Is
any grounds for the sensational story

Material honors in opposition to the
two candidates now in the field,
Harry St. George Tucker. Of Staun
ton. and Judge william Hodges Mann
Of Nottoway county.
By the Tucker adherents It is con
tended that the story was inspired by
the Democratic ring" which is IA,
vorable to the candidacy Of Judge
Mann. in an effort to break the grow
ing strength of their candidate by
splitting the vote in the State. The
