MANGO FRUIT IS
BETTER VALUED
Overcomes Its Bad Reputation
For Being Poor Fruit. Man.
60 Trees Valued Highly

The East Indian mango is one of
the great fruits of the world. To those
who have really tasted the good
sorts of it the peach loses its place
of highest honor But the early travel
ers were more interested in descrb-
ing its peculiarities than in extolling
its wonderful fragrance and the depth
of its favors, for they told the plum
and cherry eating inhabitants of the
British Isles that the mango resem-
bled ball of tow soaked in turpen-
tine and molasses, and said further
that in order to eat it you must I'M
dress and climb into bathtub and
that after you ate it you must comb
its yellow hairlike fibers out of your
teeth.
No other fruit in the world has been
so maligned. The mango trees, which
are now loaded with their golden
fruits in south Florida are so valu-
able that the mayors of the towns of
South Florida are being beseeched to
keep the boys from stealing the fruit
from the trees, not because they are
balls of tow soaked in molasses and
turpentine but because, as they hang
on the tree, they are worth IS or
more cents apiece, and boy can eat
up hve-dollar bills worth in the
time it takes to tell about it.
About Two Varieties.
The Office of Foreign Seed and
Plant Introduction OF the United
States Department OF Agriculture has
assembled through the work of its
explorers and through exchange with
the British East Indian departments,
of agriculture. one of the largest col
lections of selected mango varieties
in the world There are now fruiting
at the Plant Introduction Field Sta
ton, Miami, Fla, about 20 varieties
this year, and these represent the
selections from more than 20 sorts
of this great fruit. Some of these have
scarcely more fiber in them than
freestone peach and can be cut open
lengthwise and eaten as easily with
a spoon as a Rocky Ford cantaloupe
They have an indescribably agreeable
aroma reminiscent OF pineapples. The
mango tree, when it is in bearing, is

Conspiracy Reveals Source
OF Negotiation.

The connecting link in the chain
OF evidence against the gangsters

bonds during the last six months was
forged by the New York police yes
terday with the arrest of Irving
Gluck. nineteen years old. OF that
city who has confessed to completely
in the bond thefts, according to
dispatches received today.
Most of the bonds were negotiated
through the offlce OF David w. Sui
iivan & Co. OF New York and Wash
ington. Sullivan formerly conducted
a saloon at Twelfth and Il streets
northwest. and he. with Norman s.
Bowles, his partner, Is now out on
bonds on charges OF conspiracy In the
handling OF the stolen securities.
Beside Gluck, two others, including
his brother. Joseph Gluck. are under
arrest. The other man is Edws~S :,
Furey. A fourth suspect Is wanted
to clear up what the New York police
believe may prove the greatest con-
spiracy in the history OF Wall street
for the theft OF bonds and stocks
from brokerage firms.
Since the arrest OF Sullivan sew
ersl months ago in connection with
the negotiations OF the stolen securi-
ties. the books OF his office have
been under scrutiny. The police say
they have been able to check up part
OF the securities which were stolen
and which passed through his office.
The police declare that sensational
revelations, involving promises OF
protection by well-known politicians,
probably would be forthcoming as "A
result Of the roundup OF those said
to be responsible for the theft OF the

by Parish & Co., identified Furey, well
known In the white light" district

him OF securities valued at $1,000 In
New York several months ago. prior
to the arrest of Sullivan.
Both Sullivan and Bowles have de-
clared that they handled some of the
securities, but had no knowledge that
they had been stolen. They declare
that they were received in the days
course Of business, and that they had
no reason to suspect they had been
