Washington. June IL Richard Parr

materially assisted the government in
9aeoy ering over 100000 in the sugar
|underWeighing frauds. is to be given
a reward of 100000. The decision to
reward P3rr in the amount named was
reached al conference between Pres
ident Taft and Secretary MacVeagh to-
night. There is not money enough
available in the Moiety fund in the
treasury from which rewards are paid
to cover the amount agreed on, so that
unless other arrangements are made an
appeal to Congress will have to be
made for the necessary appropriation.
That Secretary MacVeagh. indicated
would not be dorc at this session OF
Congress.
Parr discovered the secret spring on
the dock of the American Sugar Re
finlng Co, by which the under weigh
ing practice was carried on. The final
discoveries of fraud We're made in
1907 since when the government has
been engaged in collecting the duties

held that only Parr was entitled to any

Whalley was in the employ OF tho

that he invented a fraudulent method
of weighing sugar by a set of special
weights. which it was alleged was put
in operations by the Sugar Co. in 1893

showered upon him on all sides in rec

unpleasant.
Mr.. Peary modestly recounted some
OF his experiences and told of the med

Rome. Vienna, Budapest, Edinburgh,
Brussels and Antwerp, besides other
honorS from various societies whose
recognition he prizes highly. Comman-

which he will go to Bowdoin College,

honors and to deliver an address. Then
it will be home to Eagle island, Maine.

commander said he felt he greatly

We gather here, Q Lord, this day
To lift our heats to Thee:
Our souls in tune with lifes old song.
Through all the years shall be.
These walls have held us safe in all
These faces on us gazed,
While unto Thee with reverence
Our voices we have raised.
And now before leave this scene
Let's up our voices raise
And sing a hymn for mem rieS sake.
To dear old college days.
Our Alma Mater dear are you.
And such will always be;
Through all our years of life and love.
Our hearts will beat for thee.
During the marching out the Seniors
sang "Auld Lang Syne." and continued

Roosevelt will be guarded during the
celebration if his home coming to-
morrow as carefully as If he was still
in the White House. From the time
Roosevelt left the Kaiserin Augusta
Victoria at Quarantine, he will be
guarded moment by moment by the
keenest detectives on the force.
Inspector Russell, head of the de-
tective bureau, will take personal
charge of his men. Police Commits
sioner Baker today assigned 16 in
spectors, 4S captains. 127 lieutenants.
ITO sergeants, 400 patrolmen and 20
surgeons to duty for the land parade.
Another force in police boats will
watch the water parade.
The chief work of the police will be
to keep the crowds in order, but they
will also look to the protection Of all
out of town visitors Four hundred
detectives began to scour the city last
night for every crook they could rec
ognize. All those gathered in will
be under lock and key until the cele-
bration is over. To look after those
who have slipped through the dragnet,
other hundreds Of detectives will be
constantly circulating through the files
on the sidewalks during the parade.
The national volunteer emergency
services Of which Gen. e. S. Davis. Is
at the head, will look after hospital
arrangements. If the day. is hot, the
scores of surgeons and nurses are sure
to have their hands full caring for
cases of heat prostration. There will
be 10 land stations along the line OF
march from the Battery to Central
park and Fifth avenue and hospital
boat with station Off Staten Island
will follow the river parade. Hos
pita1 tents and ambulances will dot
the streets wherever the press is thick
est.
All the big hotels report large adj
vance reservations OF rooms for to-
night and tomorrow, but 1t Is thought
they will easily be able to care for all
their guests as the bulk Of the visiting
crowds will naturally be recruited
from nearby towns.

ing to meet him will sacrifice several
