Defrandcd of Hts Share.
spee,al Dlspatch to The CHICAGO Tribune.
New YORK, Feb. 27.-The Tribune to-morro"
will publish startling story Of Custom-House
frauds, showing that not only have tue mer-
chants been grossly robbed by Jayne and the
Custom House officers, but that the doTern-
uent, too, has been defrauded by some one.
The official report Of the Treasury showing tho
sums received from merchants whose books had
been seized, Ramcs amounts which do not cor
respond with the checks paid Jayuo and others.
In the case of Rufus Story tho Government
7eceived only $50, 900. Mr.. Story to-day stated
in the presence Of witnesses that be had paid
Javne in person check for S100, ,000; that,
though made payable to bearer, he Knows tnht
JAYNE got Tho money, and that the Government
was robbed OF 100000:
Another me reliant, Peter Balep, Ia put down
as having paid $4,000 to aettle case against
him. He swears he paid 81, 500, and that some-
body stole the difference.
It appears further that Jayno has been paying
to person who is called
HIS 81 CONGRESSIONAL PARTNER,
per cent Of ali OF his receipts. 1t IS OF course
understood that ths person ia the Boston SIM
mons actlve frlend.
Jaype also has lawyers here whom he indncee
merchants to employ, and these advise the ner-
chants to settle secretly and Jayne pays the law
