Will Not Be a Million

Now York Dec 20Sugar fraudswere again under investigation heretoday and hints thrown out unofficially led to the belief that an indictmentagainst an Individual believed to ho

up than men previously in-

dicted might be returned by the fedoral grand jury-

It had been indicated that a confes-sion

¬

from some of tho men alreadyKnown to be involved in the sugarscandals was expected Whether theindictment anticipated depended onthe reported confession could not belearned

Meanwhile a definite developmentI-n the sugar fraud cases was the ar-raignment

¬

of Ernest Bebracbt formerl-y

¬

superintendent of the AmericanSugar companys plant at Williamsburg where the mon convicted lastweek were discovered iinderwoighlnR-sugnr shipments to defraud the cus-toms

¬

Gebracht pleaded not guilty to anindictment charging him with con-spiracy

¬

in connection with thesefrauds He was given the usual twoweeks time to withdraw his plea ordemur and continued a liberty underbail

New York Dec 20Whlle DeputyCollector Richard Parrs claim for amoiety of the 2135486 recovered bythe government through exposing thesugar frauds at this port has been ap-proved

¬

it appeared probable fromstatements made by Collector of thoPort William Loeb Jr today thatParrs share In tho funds was notlikely to bo 1000000 or anything ap-proaching

¬

that sumThe law said the collector pro-

vides¬

that a sum not exceeding onehalf of the net proceeds shall be paidto the person through whom such re-covery

¬

Is made The government hasusually been very liberal in its re-wards in such cases and I believe itis disposed to be so in the case ofMr Parr whose services have beencry valuable

Whether however it will considerthat Mr Parr has extended a milliondollars or oven several hundred thou-sand

dollars worth of energy in run-ning
