Extent or Opium Smuggling ut
san Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, August 9.-ln connee-
ton with the important opium Snug
Cling and bribery case before the United
States Court, and which resulted yester-
day in "tie' verdict, an ex-oflicial of
the United States Treasury informed
the Associated Press representative
to-day that during the last ten years
over S6,00O,00 worth Of opium has
been Struggled into this port. The bust
ness has heen systematically conducted
by a ring of smugglers, assisted and pro-
tected by prominent Government Off
Gals, who have been receiving 30 per
cont of the spoils, the smugglers getting
20 per cent to cover risks. That, in
addition to the 30 per cent. the officials
have received brides varying from $50
to $4,000, and that II is notorious ia ct
that men in this State who are now
reputed to be very wealthy have made
their money through opium smuggling.
The present stock of opium in the mar.
ket, large as it is, is not more than three
months supply, SO that, under the slim
illus of increased duties, smuggling will
be greater than ever. The Treasury
official said that a million dollars worth
of opium can be smuggled in this port in
year without any fuss being made, and
unless the Government takes decided
measures to suppress it, opium SNUG.
Cling will continue to be gold mine to
some officials and their tools.
