with a cargo of sand turned turtle
In the Staten Island sound off Ross
vile, Staten Island, shortly after 8
o'clock last night and the captain
and two sailors barely escaped being
dragged down to a watery grave with
the craft. The schooner, which ia
owned by Captain William H. Tut
tie, of Railway, was on its way up
the sound, making good headway,
when in some manner the cargo of
sand that was on deck shifted and
the boat turned completely over in
the channel.
Narrow Escape For Crew.
Captain Tuttle and his two rnen
had only time to jump into a small
gasoline launch, which was on the
stern Of the schooner and get away
before the craft sank.
After the boat went over Captain
futile went ashore and telephoned
the 18th precinct station, Totem
Vile. Lieutenant Bergerman, noti-
fed the harbor police of Harbor A

on its side was towed to O'NefIs
dock, Rossville, by the launch Helen

tire cargo of sand was washed from
the deck when the boat went over.

WANT CALVIN
BACK ON BEAT

A committee of three residents
from the southern section of the city
waited on Chief of Police Patrick
j.. Burke yesterday with a request
that Patrolman William Calvin be
again detailed to the southern beat
in the place of John Martin, now
there. They contended that Calvin
much better served their interests,
in that he stopped and talked to
most persons he met out late at
night and, 1t is declared, in that way
scared off many suspicious charac-
tiers.
1t Is hardly likely that Chief
Burke will see fit to make the
change. He adjudges that both Of
ficers are in their right places.
However, the chief has the matter
under consideration.
Among those comprising the com
mittee who called on Mr.. Burke in
regard to the subject were Edward
L. Gridley and H. A. Plusch.

ON THE
PRIMARY LISTS
Revised Figures of Result of
First Registration Day.
Include Names Copied.
MORE NEW POLLS In 1912
Total Is 430 More Than Vot-
ed at Last General Election
in This City.

Every polling district in the city
has a larger registration for the
primary election on September 26
than the total vote last year on gen.
eral election, November s, with the
exception Of the first poll In the sec
ond ward, which shows a total regis
tration of $50 compared with a vote
last November Of 394. The registry
total this year for the primaries Is
4,353, or an increase ove the vote
last year on election day of 430. The
personal registration on September
IL vas about ALTA.
New Districts Next Fall.
One Of the revealing features of
the registration on Tuesday, Septem-
Der IL, was the fact that next year
the Board of Aldermen will undoubt-
eddy be called upon to redistrict two
wards in this city next year. The
first ward will have to be redistricted
entirely, owing to a steady increase
in both polling places in that balli-
wick. The registration in the first
poll totals 395 for the primaries,
with an even chance Of an increase
for the general election. AS this Is
now only FIVE voters within the 400,
over which a district must be re-
divided, it will be impossible to give
to the first poll any of the s%uperfu-
Gus vote in the second polling place
of the same ward, which totals 443.
Second Ward Increase.
In the second ward the second
polling district has a total of 391 for
primary day, which Is expected to
advance over the four hundred mark
before general election day, Novem-
Der 7. The overflow In this polling
place can be given to the first district,
same ward, as onlv $50 are register
ed there to date. The second district
of the third ward and the first poll
ing place In the sixth are steadily on
the increase and may even reach the
four hunc cd mark this election.
Figures Are on File.
Following are the registration
totals for primary election as filed
with City Clerk Wilbur LaRoe, at
city hall: First ward, first poll, 395;
second poll, 443. Second ward, first
poll, 359; second poll, 391. Third

New York, Sept. 19:-The gross
profits to the sugar trust for the
coming year, following the advance
IN the price Of sugar from $3.75 per
n hundred pounds to 1928 since
January /, will reach 100000,
according to the sugar brokers OF
this city. Much of this money will
be used to wipe out the deficit In the
corporations treasury caused by the
governments differentiation prose
cution and the apparently endless
litigation that followed the discovery
Of the manipulated scale on the
Brooklyn's dock of the trust.
This money will go direct from the
consumer to the producer-the big
sugar corporation controlled by the
trusts-ag there has been no chance
In the steady upward movement Of
prices for the brokers to lay in a re-
served supply Of sugar.
Wholesale sugar dealers here are
bitter against the action Of the trust
in boosting prices in the face OF the
smuggling disclosures and while fac
ing a congressional investigation and
characterize 1t as an "impudent de-
fance of public opinion"
They say that last January the
situation in the sugar market seem
ed so bad that the SpreckIes outfit
hurried their Hawaiian sugar into
this market via San Francisco as they
feared the bottom would drop out of
the prices before they could get their
cargoes around to the Atlantic ports.
Tnctnod ~ pofr0 dnuvp hnuVouor
prices have steadily advanced. Short
age of the crops is the reason assign
ed by the producing companies and
they assert that they are being I'M
justly criticised, supply and demand
being the actual cause of putting up
the fight.

That Hotels and Newspapers Must
Remain Respectable.

Suppose you are an innkeeper, with
q fine, respectable establishment. To
stimulate profits you take down few
bars, begin to admit disreputable and
unpleasant people. Your hotel enjoys
great prosperity for two or three sea-
sons, then suddenly falls toward bank
ruptcy. The hotel bore q reputation
for responsibility; the soiled charac-
tiers wanted to enter II in order to con-
ceal their real nature and intentions.
The newspaper bore reputation for
sincerity; prostitute causes wanted to
enter 1t in order to get by association
the color Of truth. As time passed.
more and more disreputable people
came to the hotel. go that 1t lost utter
~ its old reputation. As time passed
the newspaper had to lie more and
more boldly, suppress more and more
brutally, and the public began to per-
ceive. Finally, even the disreputable
abandoned the hotel because 1t no
longer covered their intentions. Final
ly, the corrupt powers which fed the
newspaper discovered that its word
carried no more force, that 1t was un-
able to further their causes. and they
abandoned 1t to failure.-Will Irwin.
