EXPLOITING The
STAMP BUSINESS
UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT
TO PASS ON PRACTICE OF
SWELLING RECEIPTS.

Washington, Dec. 31.-After years
of labor to prevent the swelling of re-
ceipts at postoffices where the salary
Of the postmaster depends on the sale
of stamps the postoffice department is
to get a decision from the United
States Supreme Court as to whether it
is a criminal offense to exploit the
stamp business.
The government docketed in court
an appeal from the action of the Fed
eral District Court in Massachusetts,
quashing an indictment against Harold
A. Foster, Frank E. Winchell, William
S. Edwards and Henry H. Plat of con-
spiracy to swell stamp sales at Brook
field, Mass, where Foster was postmas
ter.
Edwards and Platt were merchants
in New York. Winchell was charged
with purchasing large amounts OF
stamps for them from Foster, and
Foster was charged with failure to re-
port these sales to the postoffice de-
partment as unusual sales which are
taken out of the amount on which
salaries are counted. The district
court held that it was not criminal
offence not to report the sales as I'm.
usual.
A case involving the question never
has reached the Supreme Court before
partly because 1t was not until recent
years that the government had the
right to appeal when indictments were
quashed.

SCHMIDT JURY
COULD NOT agree
FINALLY DISCHARGED AFTER DE-
LIBERATING FOR SO HOURS
TEN FOR CONVICTION.

New York, Dec. 31.-After deliberat-
ing thirty-six hours, the jury trying
the case of Hans Schmidt, formerly
priest Of st. Joseph's Church, accused
Of the murder of Anna Aumuller, re-
ported about 10 o'clock last night that
it could not reach an agreement and
was discharged.
The foreman of the jury reported
to Judge Foster that there was no
possibility of an agreement being
reached, the last ballot taken being
exactly as the first. Two of the jurors
had stood out against conviction all
the time, said Foreman Ottinger.
After thanking the jurors and free
ing them from further service in con-
nection with the case, Judge Foster
directed that Schmidt be remanaed to
the Tombs.
The accused ex-priest heard the re-
port of the jury without interest.
1t was learned that the two jurors
who failed to agree with the Other
ten were of the opinion that Schmidt
was insane when he killed the woman
with whose murder he is charged.
The crime for which Hans Schmid
| has been on trial is considered one o
the most revolving in the history o
