MERCY EXTENDED IN
THE LITTAUER CASE

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-Lucius n,
Littauer, a former congressman, and
his brother William were fined $1,000
each and sentenced TO SIX months IN
Jail today for smuggling. The court,
however, suspended sentence as to the
jail penalty.
The brothers had admitted bringing
into tins country, without paying duty,
valuable Jewels purchased in Venice
and intended for gifts for William Lit
tauer's wife. In suspending the SEN
tence Judge Thomas warned the offend
ers that this would not be his
policy IN the future. He explained,
however, that he had not found 1T the
custom in this district to inhict such
penalties He severely grilled both de.
PENDANTS, and said that the fact that
Lucius Littauer had served ten years
in congress and the general high stand
ing Of the offenders aggravated, rather
than mitigated their oifenses.
Judge Thomas added that the fact
that the defendants had pleaded guilty
and made full restitution Of civil lin-
bility by paying the government $l4,-
600, and also the ill-health of Lucius
Lttauer, had been taken into con-
sideration in dealing with them.
The Littauers were paroled jp the
custody Of their counsel. The stay of
watch their conduct for five years and
the Jail penalty will hang over them
during that time, The fines were paid
promptly.
The principal article of jewelry snug;
| gled by the Littauers was a diamond
and pearl tiara, for which they paid
a5S00 abroad, but which was worth
considerably more here. Their counsel
contendcd that the tiara might be
classed as an antique, and therefore
entitled to free entry. In announc'
ing sentence, however, Judge Thomas
said that the defendants did not declare
the tiara WIS an antique whom it was
entered, and that their failure to do SO
was proof of wrong intentions
Both the Littauers exhibited great
agitation during Judge Thomas e
| speech, and when the prison sentence
was announced Luciue clutched the
table for support.
Judge Thomas said he had received
many letters from prominent men point
