Perjury in Attempt to Obtain
Additional Allowance.

A 7th street grocer win be given a
hearing at the local food administra-
ton this afternoon on charges Of hoard
ing sugar and Of perjury in attempting
to obtain an additional sugar allowance.
Confiscated by Officials.
In the meantime LOO pounds Of sugar
which was hidden in various parts Of
the building occupied by this dealer as
store and dwelling has been conhscated
by the sugar division Of the local ad-
ministration.
This dealer appeared at the sugar
division this morning and turned in
canning pledges calling for seventy
five pounds Of sugar which he wanted
redeemed for sugar certificates. He
would not have become entangled
and his boarded supply unearthed if
he had not been SO persistent when he
was told that it was not necessary to
redeem the pledges because the can
ming and preserving season was prac-
tically over.
He protested. saying that his store
was entirely out Of sugar. and that he
already owed a nearby lunchroom
seventy-6ve pounds of sugar which
had been loaned to him at various
times during the month in order that
he might accommodate his patrons.
Inspector Sent to Store.
Becoming suspicious. the superin-
tendent Of the sugar division told the
merchant to wait around for a little
while," and in the meantime he dis
patched an inspector to make an in
vestigation- At the lunchroom in ques-
ton the latter learned that the grocer
had actually borrowed about twenty
pounds Of sugar. but not seventy-five
pounds. as claimed by him. At the
latter's place of business 100 pounds
was found in various hooks about the
store, while in a room on the second
floor 2 little more than 1000 pounds
was discovered.

Neither the guards nor the railway employees deigned to give them any salute or open mark oi recognition, and in the little village | stations where we stopped now and then the soldiers merely stared al the members of the royal party. \ This lack of difference seemed to hurt the former Emperor's feel ings.

 Discussing the incident, Judge Bur ton said, this is an instance where life might have been saved if Jul neau had had a detention hospital where insane patients might be cared for As it is, insane patients are detained at the Federal jail While every effort is made to give them proper attention there, and they usually get 1t, there are times when the facilities are not adequate There certainly should be a deten tion hospital for the insane at Ju neau."
