LOEB SUSPENDS IL MEN
Customs Employees Stirred by
Result of Investigation.

Collector Loeb suspended nine customs
inspectors yesterday and three employees
in other branches of the service pending
further investigation of their record The
twelve men were formerly assistant
weighers engaged in weighing importa =
tions of sugar, figs and cheese
This is the first result of the general
investigation of the port being made by
Winfred T. Denison, assistant United
States Attorney General and his large
force of Secret Service men from the De-
partment of Justice. There was gen.
eral shake-up of the service about d year
ago soon after Mr.. Loeb took office. but
few changes were made since then until
the suspensions of yesterday.
The blow fell without the least warn
ing. There was much excitement among
the four hundred men employed in that
branch of the service when the suspen-
sions were announced. Some of the men
affected were supposed to have good
records, and it was given out that the
further inquiry might result in the rein
statement of some of them.
Every branch of the government en-
ployment III the port is under investiga-
ton The Appraisers department is re-
ceiving an overhauling, and the report
of the special commission engaged in
the work will be ready soon. There is
considerable uneasiness among the men.
Other suspensions. it was said last even
ing. might follow soon.

R00SEVELT'S CENsURE
Norway's Premier Accused
of Violating Confidence.

Christiania, May 9.-Mr Rooseve1t's
visit here has been followed by an Incl
dent which is making a sensation in
Norway. Mr.. Roosevelt has severely
censUred eX-Premier Gunnar Knudson.
who Is now Vice-president of the Parlia-
ment. for using his name and quoting
him as a partisan in Norwegian politics
The ex-Premier has been making Il
campaign and has introduced a I'LL in
Parliament for the conservation Of the
natural resources, chiefly the water
power, and the opposition party has
been fighting this scheme as an infringe
ment on personal rights. AT the recent
dinner at the Castle. Herr Knudsen had
conversation with Mr. Roosevelt on
this subject. The latter, in the belief
that he was speaking Of general princi-
pies expressed warm sympathy in the
work Herr knudson asked permission
to make the former Presidents remarks
public.
Tell it to any one you like Nh.
Roosevelt replied enthusiastically.
There was considerable stir when
the newspapers appeared, quoting Mr..
Roosevelt as a warm supporter of Herr
Knudsens policy. Mr.. Roosevelt sum-
moned Herr knudsen and insisted en-
phatically that he issue a denial, and he
himself wrote letter to the same effect.
The opposition papers are now attacking
the eX-Premier. The ''Aftenposten" says:
From the denial which Mr.. Gunnar
Knudsen was compelled by Mr. Roose-
Welt to- make, it appears that at the
conversation in question Mr.. Roosevelt
was thinking of his own American
policy, while Herr Knudsen was speak
ing of his Norwegian policy. We will
not dwell on the want of discretion
shown by Herr Knudsen in trying to in
volve guest of the nation in our own
internal political disputes, and trying
TO turn him TO political account This
" ant of discretion rightly aroused
great deal of Indignation. 1t is an alb
solutely unprecedented phenomenon that
a man holding the position like Theodore
Roosevelt's should during the visit which
he paid us be compelled to issue
denial of what the late Premier stated
regarding his conversation with him.
