FINED FOR RUNNING
DEPOT 'SPEAKEASY"
Head Chef at Union Station
Admits Selling Beer to His
FeIIoW-EmpIoyes.

Charged with conducting a speakeasy
for months in the second story of the
Union Station, George Diemer, head
chef in the depot dining room, was ar
raigned in the District branch Of the
Police Court today, and on pleading
guilty to the charge of conducting a bar
without a license, was sentenced to pay
the minimum fine of $50.
Diemer, according to the police, has
been reaping a harvest from sales OF
beer to station employees for more than
year. Detective Harry Evans and
Sergeant Johnston. of the Sixth pre-
cinct. investigated the matter and ar
rested Diemer on a warrant last Tues
day. The place where the man Is em-
ployed is in such a remote part of the
station that 1t was difficult for the

illicit traffic. On motion Of Assistant
Corporation Counsel Williams, who de-
clared he had investigated the case. and
found that the defendants offense was
due to ignorance Of the law, the court
imposed the minimum fine.

Expert Says Storage
Boosts Prices Of Eggs

There has been a relative and general
rise in prices on butter, eggs. and
other foodstuffs' with the growth Of
storage business, according to Prof
George X. Holmes. Of the Department
of Agriculture.
Prof Holmes, chief of the division
of production and distribution, has just
made public the results of an exhaust
i've study Of the problems of storage,
particularly with relation to the effect
of the growth Of the storage business
upon prices.
Prof. Holmes holds that ii is largely
true. as contended by the storage men,
that cold storage has counted for uni
formity of prices. This, however. is but
part truth, or true for but part of the
year. In his analysis. Prof. Holmes
quotes the available figures for years.

The United States is seeking the aid
Of the Sultan of Turkey as head Of
Mohamme danism in pacifying the
warlike Moros of the PHILIPPINE
Islands. Major John p. Finley, former
governor of Zamboanga, is now in
Consta ntinople with letters from
prominent Moros.
He is trying to have the Sultan as
sure the Moros that the United
States intends only to improve their
condition and does not plan any in
reference with their religion.

suggestion of William E. Curtis, a
Washington newspaper man, he OBJ

Patent System Started
1923 Years Ago Today

The first American patent system was
tnaugurated by an act of Congress 123
years ago today. Thomas Paine, being
himself an inventor. was the first to
suggest the formation of a patent bu-
reau by an infant republic, but it was
Thomas Jefferson who put the scheme
into effect, and who is usually called
THE Father OF the American Patent
Office"
Patents were few and far between in
the early days and applications We're
often considered by several members of
the Cabinet The first patent granted
in America was to Joseph jerks, of
Lynn, Mass, to whom, in l746, the gen.
eral court of Massachusetts Bay Col
ony, by a special act gave the ex-
elusive rights for improvements in
water mills, saw mills. and the making
Of scythes.
