civil suit for that amount, repre-
senting income taxes he allegedly
neglected to pay during the lush
1924-1929 period, plus interest and
penalties.
David Bazelon, assistant district
attorney and tax expert, reported
today that when Capone leaves the
Terminal Island penal institution
near San Pedro, Calf, he will meet.
among others, an agent carrying
collection warrants.
Steps Toward Collection.
If he ignored the dun, these steps
would be in order:
District Attorney William J.
Campbell would seek a Judgment
Capone would be brought here
during the search for assets and
questioned concerning what portion
of his fortune he had salvaged.
This investigation might disrupt
his post-penitentiary vacation.
The Department of Justice fig
ured Capone's sentence would expire
November 10 if he received time of
for good behavior. Chicago friends
believed he would go directly to his
big white villa on Palm Island. near
Miami Beach, Fla, to recuperate
from the ravages of an illness which
caused intermittent mental dis
turbances" early this year.
Release of the erstwhile "big fell
low" will round out 16 years of inn
prisonment for five top executives
of the prohibition era syndicate
which controlled bootlegging and
gambling until they were convicted
OF income tax evasion.
: Years, 6 Months in JaiIs.
Capone, sentenced to II years, will
have spent 7 years, 6 months and 2
weeks in assorted cells If he is freed
on November 10. The others and
the time they sat behind the bars
were Capone's brother Ralph, 2
years, S months; Jack Guzik, 3 years,
8 months; Hymie Levine. 18 months,
and Frank Nitti, IA months.
Their fines added up to SOS, 1872,
But the bills of four of them have
not yet been marked paid in full"
by the gang busters they refer to
generically as ''Mr. Whiskers."
In addition to the S350.OOO suit
against Capone, the Government
has a $12,289 judgment against his
brother for income levies and a lien
OF $7S1.749 against Guzik and an.
other Of sl70,330 against Levine for
income and distilled spirits taxes.
These civil accounts cast up to
$1,3l4,418.

BISMARCK, N. OAK, Nov. A.
Two small boys today led Bismarck
police to rubbish heap where they
pointed out a pile Of So small, white,
egglike objects.
That's how q desperate hour-and-
a-half hunt for poison that could
have killed nearly $4,000 persons
ended.
Fifty-nine eggs Of sodium cyanide
were stolen from the rear door Of
q Bismarck drugstore about 1880
am. Each egg contained enough
poison to kill nearly 500 persons, the
druggist estimated.
And there is no known antidote.
Police went into action and soon
some broken bits of one Of the
eggs were found on q downtown
sidewalk. A lad was able to furnish
a partial description Of the boy he
had seen breaking it and with these
leads, police soon found the culprits.
The boys, each about 10 years
old. had taken the eggs In the

Only 81 miles from Washington,
Sugarloaf Mountain, prominent peak
In the heart of rural Maryland, has
been turned into q one-man noun
tain attracting thousands Of motor
lists to its solitary grandeur.
Redolent with history, the place
teens with legends of Indian cere-
monials, and stories of Civil War
watchtowers. Since 1t has been de-
veloped by the owner of 1900 acres,
Gordon Strong, into an easily
reached wooded retreat, desirable
visitors are privileged to enjoy mag
nif1cent views from its isolated en-
inence.
Sugarloaf has been made not only
accessible by good roads, but con-
venient through constructions of
views" and a well-developed foot
trail leading to the summit.
When the mountain first was made
available to visitors there were some
annoyances, but as the privacy of
the property has been Systematically
Impressed on the public, little dif1l-
Guilty has been experienced. As a
consequence the public is not gen.
orally invited, but desirable visitors
are admitted to enjoy Sugarloaf's s
beauty.

Developed over a long period of
years. the estate appropriately is
known as stronghold" It is with
out doubt the largest and most at
tractive "one-man" Offering In this
part of the United States.
thousands of dollars have been
expended by Mr.. Strong in construct
Ing roads, lookouts, seats for weary
travellers and rocky stairways.
During the past summer the auto
mobile road, which leads from the
foot OF the mountain past three dif-
ferent views" to a parking place
at the Fourth View" has been sur
faced to the end, so that now 1t is
dustless throughout.
Near this Fourth View are new
picnic tables, chairs, and on a jut-
ting rocky promontory a natural
rock lookout, from which a magnifi-
cent view is obtained across Fred
erick Valley to the Blue Ridge Noun
tains beyond.
From a spot near the Fourth View
visitors enter the foot trail through
beautiful stone entrance and NAV
climb the trail a quarter of a mile
to the summit. Along this trail are
surprising vistas, glimpses of the
Potomac River, sheer cliffs Of rock
and finally summit which rises
high above the surrounding country
side.
History Written There.
On this wilderness summit history
has been written for centuries,
Above the sheer cliffs on the summit
the long-forgotten predecessors of
the Indians of Columbus day were
moved to religious services. They
left mementos, later found in the
ground.
To this summit Indian guides of
Colonial times brought white men
from the Chesapeake coast, hunting
and exploring westward. For the
first time these pioneers were able to
get view above the dense forest to
see where they were. where America
was-at least Virginia, Maryland and
Pennsylvania. And one Of them
looking back at the south end OF
the mountain from the open water
where the Monocacy joins the Po-
tomac, must have said that the

ical loaves Of sugar which his wife
made once q year. So the nearest
and first known Of all the Appa-
lacEians took the name Of Sugarloaf.
In 1707, exploring westward from
Annapolis, came the adventurous
Swiss, Louis Michel. He left a map
on which Sugar Loaf rises abruptly
from the country round about-the
first picture Of the mountain. And
In 17l2, exploring up the Potomac
from the future Georgetown, came
Baron Grafenried out of far-dis-
tant Bern, seeking precious metals.
And since then scores Of men have
searched the rocks for traces OF
zinc, gold, silver and copper.

sugarloaf became q watch tower
in the Civil War. AS hostile
fires burned on both sides of the
Potomac, the Union decided to
make use of Sugarloaf. A signal
station was built there, one of the
most important lookouts maintained

From that summit, early in Sep

and his Southern forces. Lees
cavalry was splashing through the
Potomac down at Whites Ford. And
presently Miner. his duty done,
came down to the old wood road
from the top of the mountain-to
run into a welcoming group Of Con-
federate horsemen!
With the lookout lost to the
North, Mcclellan held fast until
1t could be recaptured, then both
armies moved on to Antietam.
The mountain was "discovered''
by It's present owner when a young
man on vacation, looking for what
would be the home of his later
years. Bicycling from Frederick,
whence he had explored the nearby
Catoctin and Blue Ridge, both in
Maryland and Virginia, he came to
Sugar Loaf. Bit by bit, year after
year, the land was acquired. And
slowly home was developed, start

the century-old log cabin and the

BY 1925 the management began

summer. The first year showed

more than 21,500. OF these visitors
an increasing percentage comes
from Washington, more than so per

from nearly every State.
At the south foot Of the mountain
the estate was enlarged by $50 acres

are kept in grass, where the cattle
