patches announcing the election Of

Statements made by Sir Hiram
Maxim, who wrote President Taft Oct
25th that gun explosions in the United
States army and navy were due to the
form of powder grain in use, are char
acteriZed as unworthy of serious con-
SiGeration.

when the Grand Jury now investi-
eating the sampling of sugar in New
Orleans finishes its work, it will be
found that the frauds against the gov
ernment there have been going on for
st least fifteen years. This state
ment was made by an official of the
customs service, who said that all the
suspected frauds would be found in
the sampling of sugar and in the polar
scopic test which determines the
saccharine contents upon which the
importer pays duty. An investigation
of alleged drawback funds at San
Francisco is also imminent. A pre-
liminary investigation has furnished
evidence which leaos treasury Off
Gals to believe the frauds there will
eclipse those at New York, which the
American Sugar Refining Company
recently offered to settle for $70O,OO0.

taken in. The stout passenger was
disposed of in the Red Cross wagon
and the journey proceeded. Very soon
the government inspector boarded the
train and found that the emergency
hospital wagon was being used for a
paying passenger who was in ordinary
health. He reported that the company
had converted the treasury wagon to
its profitable use and decided that the
traveller who had this special saloon
Tor his sole use must pay the price of
twelve first-class passengers. This did
not produce a stroke of apoplexy in the
hospital car, neither did it produce the
extra money.
The treasury then billed the COM
pany for the use of the car, and the
company has asked the interdepart-
mental commission to draw up a find
ing as to how very fat passengers are
to be carried, and to allow it to raise
the tariff for exceptional bulk.

It is difficult to compare the costs
of conventionalIy necessary items of
funeral expense because they vary so
greatly not only in different lands, but
in the same country and contiguous
territory. The charges for essentially
the same articles and service differ,
far less because of any difference in
actual cost than because of the alb

is left open for extortionate charges to
be wrung from people. when least cap

Dies of Suggestion.

Friends of Matthew P. Lynch, a
Neptune avenue, Coney Island, hotel
the illness which caused the death of
Mr.. Lynch had been caused by the
power of suggestion.
In support of their belief they point
ed out that until seven months ago,
when Mr.. Lynch was stricken ILL., he
had been in such sturdy health that no
body had ever thought of telling him
he looked bad. Seven months ago sew
eral of his acquaintances, who may or
may not have got the idea from a play
of Moliere, began to tell Mr.. Lynch
that his appearance was that of a man
who was very i'll.
To the men who first went to him
with this suggestion Mr. Lynch paid
no attention. His acquaintance who
had suggested the combined attack
upon Mr. Lynch as a joke. and who
were not sure he would Yield to their
suggestions, persisted in the plan.
Gradually the hotel proprietor sue
cumbed to the unremitting efforts that
were made to convince him he was ILL.,
He began to worry. The more he wor-
ried the more his acquaintances insist
ed that he had grounds to be appre-
hensive.
A week ago he quit work, saying he
was too i'll to continue. Physicians
who were called discovered symptoms
of heart trouble. When Mr.. Lynch was

Those acquafntances who had start
ed the feeling of dissatisfaction with
his health to which Mr. Lynch had
yielded now saw they had gone too far.
They tried to get Mr.. Lynch to dis
