A formal complaint, charging

conspiracy- to tamper with the
Jury which was hearing the crim

the wealthy oil operator and Al
bert B. Fall was issued by United
States Commissioner Need ham C

A warrant against Sinclair also
was sworn out, but subsequently
District Attorney Gordon'said this
action had been a mistake and
that the warrant had been revok
ed. It developed, however, that
the warrant simply was T held in
abeyance pending final action by
the grand jury which is investi

the Burns agency in shadowing
members of the trial jury.
Sworn By Deputy
The complaint was sworn to. by
Neil Burkinshaw, assistant dis
trict attorney in charge of the
grand Jury inquiry, immediately
after Chief Justice McCoy of the
District of Columbia district court
had ruled that Day could not be
compelled to testify before the
grand jury since he had taken the
Dosition that any evidence he
would give might tend to incrim
inate him. -
Day and his counsel, former Ju
tice Daniel Thew Wright of the
district court, accompanied Burk
inshaw to the commissioner's of

OATS ONE BUSHEL SHORT
Dr. Steiner Raises 0999 at Hospi
tal Farm, Here
A few months ago Dr. R. E.
Lee Steiner told members of the
state board of control that he ex
pected to produce 10,000 bushels
of oats on the hospital farm this
season. -
Dr. Steiner reported to the
board Friday that the land had
produced 9999 buanew. or one
bushel short of his estimate.
"What was the matter with the
man who did the weighing?' Gov
ernor Patterson asked. " -
"I rebuked him severely." Stei
ner replied.
Death and I destruction were to
day riding the crest of angry flood

dented fury over five New Eng
land istates, New York and up in

The cost' In human life and
property damage could not yet be
counted, for ; the waters had not
receded to reveal the full tragedy
ot their passing, and communica
tion to manyjof the most seriously
affected districts was still de-
nroyted. ,
Millions Damage
It was estimated, however, that
the toes in prdperty would run
well into the millions of dollar?
and It was feared that when the
final count, of human life sacri
ficed to the i storm's ferocity was
made the total would be more than
i score.
The flood I began two days ago
when dams in New England riv

excessive rainfall; began bursting
asunder to release upon the val

terrible torrents than the, inhabi
