New Orieas. April 16.-That reports Of
fraud In the weighing of sugar at the
port Of New Orleans were without grounds
and that the government had not lost
penny In this affair was the gist Of
the report which Assistant Attorney GEN
eral Dennison today placed in the hands
Of the United States grand Jury here.
MIR. Dennis0n was one OF the govern
ment's special attorneys in the sugar in
vestigation case In New York and has
been in charge here.
''The figures at New Orleans show that
the government sugar weighing here has
been for ten years on q basis OF cor
rectness never approached at any rein

were exposed and the conditions revolu-
tionized," said Mr.. Dennison.

sugar frauds existed here and / hope

be published in justice TO importers, the

CAUGHT the Wrona Man.

But q little while ago one Arthur
Jones Of London got a letter addressed
to a dead uncle Of his and setting forth
the old gold mine story. Jones happened
to have heard of the swindle In some
way and he let the American postoffice
authorities into the secret. Jones had
been instructed to correspond with James
Thomas Southwick of Bayonne, N. J., In
regard to the delivery of the fortune.
He did so, and arrangements were made
to meet Southwick in New York at q
certain date.
The authorities, represented by Chief
Inspector Meyer of the postoffice and
Inspector McCafferty and his aides OF
the New York police, got ready for the
meeting. They found that Southwick
had told the postoffice at Bsyonne to
forward his mail to the Broadway Cen
trail hotel New York city. So there
they went to wait for him.

"Oh, by the way, is there any mail for

and he started out. Then the officers

PLAYED on Greed of Heirs.

The writer would also state that a
mutual friend" of his and the dead man
had sent a package containing about $40
900 worth of gold-the cleanup of the
last few months-which was TO be divided
between them, and would ask that rep
resentative come over and get his share
of the gold.
The heirs of the dead man would OF
course get the letter, which was timed to
reach them Just about when they were
dividing up the estate and had not
learned all about what their relative had
left In their cupidity those who got the
letter would say:
well, here's gold mine which Uncle
Bill forgot to mention in his will. Maybe
II we hurry over we can get hold of all
this gold without the rest of the relatives
knowing anything about it,
Whereupon they would hike for New
York and meet the gentleman from the
gold fields, who would be none other
than Adams. He would weep to find
that his old friend in England was dead.

both from literary and interest standpoint.
The Pacific Monthly has long since estab-
ished a reputation of high artistic merit with
its excellent art features. The cover designs
are typically Western in character, being either
reproduction of some delightful bit of seen
cry, or the work of some Western artist who
has caught the spirit Of the West on his can
vas. Each month there is a series of four pic
lures in color which are carefully selected from
the immense number Of photographs sub
mitted, only the best being selected These pic
lures alone have established the reputation Of
The Pacific Monthly as an artistic publication.
Each issue contains at least four fully illustrat-
ed articles and no expense is spared to make
the entire magazine attractive.

Distances at Sea.

That man was laughed at who on
his first voyage said that the ocean
did not look so large as he supposed 1t
would, but he was not alone in expe-
riencing disappointment. The horizon
at sea gives no idea Of the limitless
water beyond. a sea captain declares
that the average landsman cannot see
more than ten miles from the ship in
any direction. and it would have to he
a mountain or some stationary object
for him to be able to distinguish it.

Sandina a Man to Coventry.

The expression sending to Coven-
try" had a military origin. 1t arose,
so it is said, in the days of Charles
l., when the inhabitants of Coventry
strongly objected to any intercourse
with the military quartered in their
town. and a woman known to speak
to man in scarlet cloak was at once
the subject of scandal. So rigid were
the natives that the soldier was con-
fined to the mess room for conversa-
ton. Thus the term sending man to
Coventry" If you wished to shut him
from society took root in the English
MISREPRESENTATION Chronicle.
