Sugar Checkers and Assistant
Dock Superintendent Given
Three Months Sentences.

NEW YORK, June Hint OF fur
Their prosecutions in connection with
the sugar underweighing frauds was
given today by Special Prosecutor
Henry L. Stimson, when the W mon
convicted last night of conspiracy TO
defraud the government by means or
underweights were brought up for SEN
tence. together with three former IN
ployees of the American Sugar Refining
Company, who had pleaded guilty dur-
ing the trial just ended.
Preceding this a respite was won by
the two leading figures in the uga
conspiracy prosecutions, Charles r.
Heike, secretary of the American Sugar
Refining Company, and Ernest w. Ger
bracht, superintendent of the sugar
trusts Williamsburg refinery.
Sentence was not imposed upon either
of the convicted men. Instead, Judge
Martin suspended sentence until Au--
gust 30, pending an appeal which
sci for the defendants will file. Bail
was fixed at $25, 900 each, the present
bail Of IS, 900 for Heike and $40, 200 for,

regarding whose guilt or innocence the
jury disagreed, as did a jury at a
previous trial On the same charge, was
paroled on his own recognizance. 1t is
considered doubtful if his case is
further prosecuted.
James F. Halligan, the checker, and
Harry w. Walker, the assistant dock
superintendent, who pleaded guilty dur
ing the recent trial, were sentenced to
three months each on Blackwells ISL
and.
Jean Voelker, who is confined to his
bed and is in a dying condition, had
his sentence suspended.
Adding to their attorneys plea for
clemency for Halligan, Voelker n
walker, Henry L.. Stimson, the govern
ment's prosecutor, made the
ment that since the men had pleaded
guilty they had made a full and frank
confession and that the government
was now acting on the information
which had been received from the men.
This appeared to f~oreshadow further
prosecutions, and caused something Of
a sensation, 1t having been widely as
sumed that criminal proceedings grow
ing out of the extensive underweish-
ing frauds had come to an end with
the conviction of Heike, the man

nate, Gerbracht.

HOSE ATTACHMENT STOPS
ENGINE AUTOMATICALLY.

A new attachment for steam fire en-
gines which 1t is claimed will save
water at fires and also lessen the dan
ger to the firemen handling hose, was
exhibited today at the repair shops in
Prospect street for the benefit of the
fire commissioners and chiefs.
The attachment was connected with
Engine No. 8, and when h firemen
shut off the water at the nozzle the
engine stops and the steam safety
valves open. When the firemen turn
on the water the engine works and the
steam valves close. If two lines of hose
are used the shutting off. one does not
increase the water pressure on the
other line. The device will be left on
the engine for a time so as to deter
mine its practical value at fires.
The commissioners also inspected an
operating table for horses that has been
installed in the reserve tables SO that
Veterinarian James Glennon may be
able to do his work with less danger
and also obtain better results. The
table is built of steel and heavy oak
boards capable of sustaining the weight
of the heaviest or largest horse.

MOTT PLANS HARD
FIGHT TO RETAIN
SNEAD CASE DATA
Prosecutor Declares He Has
Enough Evidence to Convict
the Mystery Sisters"

That Prosecutor Wilbur A. Mott will
make a desperate effort to retain let
tiers and photographs he has gathered
from a dozen different States to be
used as evidence In connection with
the alleged murder of Ocey w. NJ.
Snead by drowning her In a hathtub
In a practically deserted house In Four
teenth street, East Orange, on Novem-
Der 20 last, was made apparent today
by the following statement from the
prosecutor.
Waving his arm toward a large safe
in his office he said: II lave the evil
dence there that will convict Virginia
o. Wardlaw, Caroline B. Martin n
Mary B.. Snead of that murder and
| intend to keep 1t there until produce
1t in court on August 20. when the case
comes to trial"
Prosecutor Mott returned today from
his summer home at Nantucket, Mass,
TO prepare for his appearance, together
with several others, before the United
States Circuit Court, in Trenton, on
Monday, In answer to ar order OBJ
tanned by Franklin w. Fort, counsel
for Miss Virginia o. Wardlaw, request
ing Mott to show cause why he should
not be restrained from using a mass of
evidence that he has gathered. Forts
contention is that the letters, photo
graphs and other data were obtained
by illegal seizure and that the prose
cutor has no right to use them in the
trial.
IT do not know just what Mr.. Fort
bases his view on, but l do know that
| will not give up the evidence I have
secured without being ordered to do
SO by the court of last appeal. l am
confident that we ave a complete case
against these three old women n l
mean to protect the States right in
all events"
ANY action at law, whether civil or
criminal, is a mighty serious PROPOSE
ton and naturally in a case that has
attracted the attention this one has the
attorneys for the defendant are using
every possible means of finding out
what the prosecution intends to use
against them.Y
Prosecutor Mott said he did not ex-
psct that any order would be issued by
the United States Circuit Court re-
straining him from using what he
claims positively roves the guilt of the
three sisters.
"If we are not allowed to obtain evil
dence as we did in this case all prose-
cutors' offices might as well shut up
shop. If we are compelled to go out
with a brass band and parade to sus-
pected persons homes inc then give
them time to destroy any evidence
that might convict them there will be
no further use for the criminal court"
