SUGAR PRICES FIXED BY U. S. Hoover Also Cuts Candymak ers' Supply in Half Dur ing Shortage Washington. Oct 26.—The food administration at Washington last night struck two more blows for the consumer In replenishing the sugar lupply at normal prices. Herbert C. Hoover, food adminis trator. set 6.35 cents per pound as the basic price for raw I/ouisiana sugar, thus keeping down the even tual retail price when this sugar Reaches the market. The wholesale price Is to be 8.3 5 cents per pound. In another ruling. Mr. Hoover in structed all*reflners and sugar dis tributers to cut in half the supply to confectioners between now and January 1. The food administrator hopes, through this order, to bolster on the supply for domestic consump tion. In the meantime, with careful use and sensible fcuylng, it Is believed the supply in the hands of consumers, merchants and wholesalers here will last until the 200,000,000 pounds of raw sugar, bought in Louisiana as an emergency measure, will reach the market. It will be at least three weeks be fore this emergency supply reaches the retail store, those prominent in the sugar industry said yesterday. It will take three weeks before it can be brought Into the refineries here, and two or three days more before the manufactured sugar Is started toward the market The entire 200:000,000 pounds, however, can be refined in two weeks, once the supply reaches here, there fore. it will require little time to get into the market. GREEKS DECIDE TO PROSECUTE CABINET Athens, Greece. —Arising from a report of the committee to investi gate the actions of the Lambros Cab inet, which considered sending the Lambros ministers, excepting Mr. ll lopoulos. for trial before the high court for monarchial absolutism and anti-Entente tendencies and actions, the Chamber discussed the whole question as well as the proposal to try the Gounaris government. A feature of the debate was a 14-hour speech by Mr. Rhallls, who pleaded that the imposition of the personal policy of the King was not a change of regime, as the King was always Irresponsible and nothing of which he was accused could be character ized as high treason. Subsequently the Chamber voted I in favor of the prosecution of the Skouloudis Cabinet members, includ ing Mr. Gounaris. Mr. Rhallis failed to establish his plea.

Bullets i>re the the best reply to bull-itc. \rnokl Wimbcrn, whom I hod met at Captain Larsen's house in Stockholm, was aboard the . He had been picked up by the latter several hours earlier. His schooner had been sunk by a submarine. The Hampton Roads, rescued him and his crew. When Wimborn was coming alongside my craft, in the boat of the , he exclaimed, chaffing me good naturedly, as soon as he recognized me, "Some day you will sink a schooner and will discover that it belongs to Larsen and has your Minna aboard." I showed him the pictures of Minna in my cabin, and when he saw the crepe around them he was spellbound and speechless. "But not through you!" he exclaimed, draw ing away, as if In horror from me, as though I were infected with the pest. I told him all that had happened and how I was suffering. He was very sympathetic and assured me that he knew that I would have given my life rather tha i injure Minna. "But," he said, "you sure' are engaged in a damnably ques tionable business." ' What can I do?" I replied: "I have to perform m> f duty. Duty, duty; eli, this murderous damned, unspeakable duty." Here the diary of Hans von Tue- ' blnger ends abruptly. What occurred after this final en try; how this bright, noble intellect, becoming dethroned, "like sweet bells Jangled, out of tune."'drove him at last to such mad excesses in the pursuit of "duty" as to sink every vessel which crossed his path, was told in the newspaper recently in an account by John Pirano, a sea man, who was a survivor of the Norwegian steamship Falkland, tor pedoed in the North Sea, with the loss of ten lives. The story, as told by Pirano, was as follows — "The Falkland was carrying a cargo from Philadelphia, and every thing was going along smoothly un til we were in the North Sea, about 150 miles off the northeast coast of England ,\ hen a U-boat came to the surface and started in to fire at us without preliminaries. The first shot tore away our wireless. An other smashed into the engine room, killing half a dozen men. "The shells were coming so fast that we didn't wait any longer, but Just piled Into the lifeboats jind grot away as quickly as we could. We were not a '#t too soon, for the ves sel sank a few minutes after we har* cut loose from her. All told, ten mtn perished with her. "The captain of the U-boat made us come alongside after our vessel was gone. I never saw a man act more queerly. He looked as if he felt sorry for us and then became excited and angry and ordered us to get out of his sight. We were In mortal dread of the man and didn't know just what to do. We were be tween the devil and the deep sea, for we made up our minds tha: no matter whether we stayed or rowed away he would find some cause of quarrel and have us shot. "We thought he meant dome ve?- s.M named Minna, but the way he pronounced the name and the aw? i'ullv sad expression that came into his eyes soon convinced me that ho must have meant a woman ot
