HUGE STAMP THEFTS.
Postage to Value of Millions Stolen
Annually, Says Postmaster General.

So-called stamp brokers and coniiden-
tial employees of large business concerns
throughout the United States are carry
ing on business in stolen postage stamps
and postals amounting to several mil
lions Of dollars annually, according to an
announcement by Postmaster General
Hitchcock.
The Post Office Department has learn
ed. through confessions secured by its
inspectors from some of the so-called
brokers. that they purchased stamps OF
all classes and denominations stolen by
burglars from post offices throughout the
country and embezzled by employees OF
big business concerns and manufacturing
establishments, whose mailing lists neces-
state their having thousands Of them on
hand at all times. These they resOld at
prices far below their face value.
The first of a series of indictments re-
sulting from the investigations was hand
ed down sealed in New York city yes
terday.
In New York approximately twenty So
called brokers make a business of pur-
chasing postage stamps at discount
ranging from 80 cents to 90 cents on
dollar and selling them to merchants al
prices varying from IS cents to 80 cents
on dollar. The stamps. 1t is said, are
obtained largely from office boys and
confidential employees who embezzle them
from their employers.

CHANGES IN TRUST LAW
Senate Commerce Committee
Practically Decides on Sew
eraI Amendments.

Recommendations in favor of several
amendments to the Sherman antitrust
law were practically decided upon today
at an executive meeting of the Senate
interstate commerce committee, held to
discuss a report on the hearings during
1911 and 1912.
The committee took no positive action
beyond requesting Senator Cummins OF
Iowa to prepare it's report, but the dis
cussion among the senators present indi-
Gated that the members were in sub
looking to the maintenance Of the prin-
ciple of competition rather than the regu-
lation Of MONOPOLY as was strongly
favored by many fnanciers and business
men who gave testimony.
Unanimous Opinion.
There also appeared practically a unan-
imous opinion in support Of the con-
tention that the present law as a whole
should not be changed, but that changes
should be in the form of supplemental
action to strengthen the original intent
Of the law, which is interpreted as mean.
ing that all combinations interfering with
competition should be held to be illegal.
Differences Of opinion arose in connec-
ton with the discussion of the Supreme
Courts Interpretation to the effect that
the word reasonable should be consid
cred in the law. Some members were op-
posed to that. 1t is expected that Senator
Cunmins' report will be presented at a
meeting in about a week.

CITES C|TY'S PARK NEEDS
Frederick Law 0Imsted Ex.
plains Requirements of
National Capital.

Arthur c. Moses, chairman of the
Board of Trades special committee on the
development of the park system, has re-
ceived telegram from Frederick Law
Olmsted of Brookline, Mass. expressing
regret that he was unable to attend the
meeting in the interests OF park system
which was held in the New Willard Hotel
Wednesday afternoon and was addressed
by President Taft.
Mr. Olmsted is the sole surviving mem
Der of the Mcmillan park commission.
which was composed of Augustus Saint
Gaudens, Daniel II. Burnham Charles r.
| McKim and Mr.. Olmsted which framed
the famous plan for the development OF
Washington presented to the Senate in
1902 by Senator Mcmillan Of Michigan.
His telegram was as follows:
II greatly regret l could not attend
your important meeting. l would urge
attention to the two-fold nature Of park
| requirements i'm Washington. first. the
| orderly. dignified and beautiful develop
ment. both of open spaces and of public
structures, as they shall be required te
provide in adequate manner for the
| increasing volume Of the nations govern
| mental business.
Second, the creation and maintenance
| at those local recreation grounds, outly-
| ing parks and connecting parkways
which are requisite to the welfare of the
inhabitants of every city whether it be a
capital or not.
I'm the first respect some kind OF
action is forced by governmental necesSi-
| ties and the problem is only that of wise
| guidance. National public opinion de-
| mands the best. and the more important
| recommendations upon this score adopted
| by the park commission of which l an
the surviving member. appear to be win
| ming their way upon their own merits.
I'm the second respect the urgent needs
| of 100000 voteless people and of the larg-
| err population of the future nave been toe
long ignored. 1 cannot too strongly ap'
plaud the efforts of the Washington
Board of Trade to bring wise public
| opinion to bear on both branches OF th1t
| problem.

establishment undoubtedly will be well
coined by the motorists of the National

Got One-Half of Fines.

In Hyattsville there was an ordinance
providing that the chief constable receive
| a salary of $3.50 per annum and in addi-
tion should be entitled to one-half of all
fines collected from violations of the
speed ordinance. The report states that
the fines collected in .Hyattsville for
speeding amounted to $633 81 and that the
chief constable received half of this and
divided this half equally with another
constable. SO that each of the constables
received under the ordinance $15S 46. This
ordinance has been repealed.

Towns Seek Only Safety.

ferred to the ordinance which is, at least.
apt to make the officers overzealous
which has since been repealed, and it is
entirely possible that these officers have
at times overstepped the bounds of a jul
dicial attitude.
with regard to the numerous COM
plants that have been made to your ex-
cellency regarding the matter of trial.
etc, of those arrested, 1 feel that I can
only report the facts as 1 have found
them in respective places, as the law
only authorizes me Ito exercise every rea-
sonable effort to secure enforcement" of
the law. and the question Of whether or
not the various justices and other Of
fcers are properly exercising the duties
opposed upon them by the legislature is
not within the scope of my power or
authority.
LAS result of my investigation I have
| come to the conclusion that both of
these towns are anxious only to obtain
safety for their citizens and reasonable
| care on the part Of automobilistS and
would be perfectly willing to turn over
| to the state the matter of accomplishing
| these ends 1t therefore occurs to me
as q suggestion that 1t might be proper
| for this office to exercise certain SUI
peryision under section 49, which pro-
vides that the commissioner shall APP
point such assistants and at such salaries
| as he may deem necessary, subject to
| the approval. of the governor, and it is
| submitted that this could be effected by
short DC RODS of supervision, from time
| to time as requested by the town authori-
| ties

Report on "Hold-Ups" Submitted.

The long-looked-for report of the inves-
tigation by Automobile Commissioner
Harry A. Roe of Maryland into the al
legged legalized ''hold-ups" of autoists
passing through Laurel and Hyattsville,
Nd. was made public last night by Gov.
GOldsborough at Annapolis. 1t is COM
prehensive document and covers thirteen
typewriter pages. besides exhibits OF or
dinances dealing with the speed of auto
mobiles while passing through these two
towns.
According to Mr.. Roe, all faults that
have been found by autoists are due to
the legislation enacted by the town cOun-
ellis, while in one instance he mentions
that the division of fines imposed for
speeding with the constable making the
arrests might have caused the officer of
the law to be "overzealous."
In his investigation Mr.. Roe found tina.
In Laurel there was an ordinance which
provided that all fines collected for viola
tons of the speed laws should be turned
over to the town treasurer. The conten-
ton of the automobile commission ,r is
that the fines should be given to the
state, and he mentions the fact that a
suit will be brought to determine the le-
gality of the Laurel ordinance.

May Repeal Laurel Law.

In concluding his report Mr.. Roe states
LAS to the Laurel ordinance, l am in
formed that at an early meeting Of the
council the question of repeating the
present ordinance is to be considered.
In the meantime the attorney for the
motor vehicle commissioner is preparing
to institute suit to determine the valid
ity Of the provision of the ordinance
providing that the fines for violations
thereof be turned over to the town in
stead of to this Office. With regard to
the action of the justice of Laurel under
the ordinance. 1 would call attention to
the fact that fines imposed by him are
quite irregular, the ordinance providing
a penalty of not less than So nor more
than SO; yet 1t appears from the docket,
a copy of which is inclosed, that in sew
eral cases a fine Of 81 or 81 was imposed
which. in my judgment, cannot be justi-
fed in any way.
"As to the Hyattsville ordinances.
have already reported the present status
to be entirely different than when the
large, II not entire. number Of arrests
were made. Under the former ordinance
the activity of the town officials was
considerably awakened by the policy of
dividing fines with the informer.
1T is impossible also to escape from
the conclusion that the action taken by
the respective towns has been brought
about by the excessive speed driving
through the villages. and that their only
object was to make the streets safe for
their inhabitants as far as possible and
not to swell the funds of their treasury
And the physical fact must not here be
lost sight Of that when autoists are driv-
ing their machines through the open
country at rate of from forty to fifty
miles per hour. and then slack up to
quently feel perfectly sure. such is the
difference in exhilaration, that they are
easily within a. prescribed limit of ten
miles per hour. and undoubtedly a great
many of the complaints arise from this
cause.
