SUIT FILED TO
PROTECT PUBLIC
CRIMINAL CHARGES TO BE Fileo
AGAINST SUGAR SPEC
ULAToRS
SUGAR PRICES PROBED
INJUNCTION TO STOP TRADING
IN SUGAR FUTURES IN
sTITuTED BY U. S.

WnshinEton.-CrI prosecutions
may follow an Injunction suit hled IN
New York by the federal government
TO protect the public against exorbi-
tant sugar prices.
The first phase of the governments
actEu.. st the alleged sugar con-
splracy. ,.... ,u.uplctcd with Institution
of the civil Injunction proceedings to
prevent speculative trading on the
New York Sugar Exchange. The Grim
inaI phase was held In ebeyance, but
Acting Attorney General Seymour an-
nounced that 1t was under serious con-
sidcration.
Final decision regarding criminal
action was said officially to be before
Attorney General Daugherty, who now
Is at Asheville, n. c. He was said to
be considering request upon the fed
eral grand Jury in New York for Grim
inal indictments, under the conspiracy
provisions of the Sherman antitrust
act, of defendants named in today's
civil suit.
Another development in the sugar
situation was a report to President
Harding by the tariff commission
which found that duties of the new
Fordncy- McCumber tariff act were not
factor in the recent increase in su-
gar prices.
The commission declared the in
crease was due to other causes and
that If the tariff was reduced or re-
moved, the tendency would be to de-
crease production Of American beet su-
gar and increase imports of the for
eign products.
The governments action in the New
York injunction suit designed to close
the New York coffee and sugar ex-
change and the New York Coffee and
Sugar Clearing Association, Inc, to fu-
ture or speculative trading in sugar,
was unusually speedy and vigorous.
At the White House. it was said, 1t
would be novel and important to deter
mine for the future whether the gov

speculation in foodstuffs and also in
clothing, prices of which have II ten
dency to fluctuate abnormally.
Two months of active investigation
by government agents in this country
and Cuba, precede filing of the in
junction suit. Although the depart
ment of justice plans We're known to
a considerable number of officials, the
move was clothed in secrecy, no indi-
cation being given that the govern
ment contemplated such drastic
action.
Officials explained that the civil
proceedings properly came first in the
governments procedure, the design be-
ing to use the Injunction to prevent
further Increases in raw sugar prices,
which are reflected to the family
sugar bowl through the wholesaler
and retailer.
The criminal phase logically would
follow, officials said, if Attorney
General Daugherty determines that
the evidence warrants conviction on
conspiracy charges of those in the nj.
legged combination which 1t Is charged
resulted in the sky-rocketing of sugar
prices since early February.

LUXOR AWAKENING
 FROM LONG SLEEP
Taking on Habits of Twentieth X Century Town

Valley of the Kings. Luxor. Egypt, March 30 (By the Associated Press) Luxor, like King Tutenkhamun. has been reused from its repose of 5000 years and is taking on something of the habits and characteristics Of a goth century town. For ages q con- ventional stopping place for Nile ex- cursion steamers and tourists, it has lately become a center for people of all classes. including students, college professors, antiquarians, doctors, un- dertakers, dressmakers and souvenir hunters. The newly-found tomb of Tutenkhamun is the magnet that draws them all. Tourists are attract ed here out of curiosity, but profess sional men and women, undertakers, embalmers, dressmakers, and mili- ners, come in the hope of getting new ideas for their business from the mummy chamber of the ancient king.
 Undertaken Amazed.
 To modern undertakers the skill of the ancient Egyptians in preserving their dead against the ravages of ages is a source of amazement and mys- tery, and many of them have applied to Howard Carter, discoverer of Tut enkhamun. for the privilege of ex- amining the Pharaoh's body when it is diyested of it's garb of gold and its bitumenized bandages.
 Embalming in ancient times was much more elaborate and expensive process than it is today. It required three months for it's completion, and cost s1,500. It was a luxury that could be afforded only by the rich. The ancients believed that mummifi- cation in this life was the only sure means of their resurrection in the l

next. Pathetic efforts were made by the poor to secure eternal life to their dead. American archaeologists in Luxor have lately found skeletons of humble peasants placed near the graves of the royal dead. Their rela- tives, 1t appears. too poor to pay for embalming, placed the bodies near the graves of the nobles in tho hope that their poor frames would par take of the sacredness of the nobility and thus rise with them in the next life.
 Emblaming q Body.
 The first step in embalming body in Pharaohonic days was to place 1t in a powerful saline solution for three months. The intestlnes were then re- moved by means of sharp-edged stone, the brain, heart and liver were taken out and the body impregnated with myrrh, accacia, btumen and aromatic oils. It was then wrapped in hundreds of yards of linen soaked in preservative. The amounting of the mummy was accompanied by prayers and incantations to the gods, led by the high priests.

Winlop, director of ex- cavation at Thebes for the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art, showed the correspondent 4,200-year- old Egyptian princess that he unearthed last week in the Valley of the Queens. for natural cancellation and the body is amazingly well The teeth and hair are in- tact.

 The royal mummy Mir. Winlop said, was that of a woman of 22 or 23, who undoubtedly had been a fa- vorite in the court of one of the kings. Her bosom and arms were delicately tatooed with neraldic figures, indicating her noble ineage. Over the lower part of the abdomen was a long scared brand which the American expert said prob ably had been inflicted with red-hot ron by the doctors of that time as a to relieve the pain lue to an organic malady from which 1 he princess suffered.

It is the intention of Mr. J. B. Reher, superintendent in charge, to make these roads permanent from the start. Gravel is being used profusely and the bridges and culverts are as substantial as can be built.

SUBSCRIBERS COMPLAIN

Subscribers along the route of the government railroad are complaining and The Gateway has lost number of subscriptions because they do not get their paper. Complaints have been received that papers reach the sub scribers with wrappers gone, the pa- pers torn, and others declare they do not receive the paper at all. For the benefit of those not receiving their pa pers promptly we will state they are placed in the postoffice at five o'clock the day before the train leaves for the Interior They undoubtedly leave the Seward postoffice, and just where they go from there is hard to say. It has been nearly impossible to serve subscribers to the north ever since The Gateway started, although sub scribers in other directions have little trouble. This has caused a serious handicap to working up a large list along the railroad, and the source of endless trouble.
 Ii each subscriber will kindly trace up his paper and find the cause for delay by asking his local postmaster when they reach his office, we may be able to locate and stop the poor serv- ice.
 The Gateway will place these papers in the Seward office before five o'clock the day before the train leaves. This is all that can be done, without co. operation from our subscribers. Sub scribers who fail to receive their pa per will have their time extended, un- til such time as prompt service can be assured.
