WASHINGTON, March %. 1916
There have been rumors for some days here of com

and wrong IN the New York Custom House The facts
centre about Lawrence, who has doubt been very
successful smuggler, and who, being TO be tried
has is said offered, II his be let or expose
the confcdorates in tho Custom House with
whose aid he worked II he has important
communications to make he will, doubt, have an
opportunity given him, but it is not probable that he
will be let or unless he materially assist
the government In discovering wrong doors and
clearing the Customs service OF them. The matter is
In the hands OF tho proper authorities here. and
Lawrence will be dealt with as the interests OF the
public service and OF justice shall demand
