THE OMAHA CASE.
Report Of the Collector Concerning the a.
legged Smuggling by Officers.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-Assistant Secre-
tary Spalding has received from Collector
Phelps report concerning the alleged
smuggling by the Omaha officers. SpaldiDg
finds there is no evidence to subStantiate
the charges of smuggling and the Collector
is directed to release the detained goods
upon payment Of the tariff duties. Collector
SpauIding:says that all the seized goods are
only worth 1882, foreign value, and as they
were divided among twelve naval officers
there was an average of only $40 for each
officer. The home value for the goods is
S567, or an average of S4S for each officer.
The goods consist mostly OF silk ScarfS,
Chinese vases, and that sort of bric-a-bTac
that naval officers frequently bring home
with them. AS to the report that part of
the goods we're sent to naval officers on
Thirtieth street, in Washington, Collector
Phelps letter to the department is as fol-
lows:
''ln regard to goods seized from officers
OF the Omaha be- leave 10 submit the fol-
lowing: The steamer arrived in port and
proceeded as usual to Mare Island without
interference by customs officers A few days
later l received letter informing me OF
whatapDeared gross violation on the part
of the officers. 1t was so definite that | did
not feel authorized to disregard it, l there
fore sent the Chinese Inspector to inyeSti-
County. He tried to find the informer, but
failed. He then ascertained at Wells
FargO'S express Office that several small
packages OF the goods had been shipped
East by naval officers.
I'm company with SpecialtAgent Evans
they ascertained at Mare Island that
seventy-one cases had been shipped May
29lh to San Francisco. where they were af-
terward located at the foot of Market street
in charge of the Southern Pacific Company.
The packages were opened and | caused
them to be seized and appraised. In consid-
Grafton of the feelings of the officers of the
Omaha, and not being Of the opinion that
they intended any fraud upon the revenue
by bringing the articles embraced in the
seiZu res, | endeavored 10 keep the matter
from the public, but it leaked out, and certain
articles TO a degree sensational appeared IN
certain San Francisco papers Since the
seizure | received a second letter informing
me that contraband goods were being loaded,
but failed to find the merchandise. The
infOrmer may have been an employe on the
steamer and acted by malice. 1t may be
possible that the officers have really Snug
ged some goods, but am inclined to give
them the benefit Of the doubt"

Boston, June 19-Several years ago some
benevolent person presented Amherst Col
lege with piece of statuary representing a
lovely maiden drying in the sun. After its

it with paint, and when the faculty awOke
next morning the maiden had received a
pair of clasS-cOlored striped stockings and
other wearing apparel This enraged the
President, who ordered the statuaIy
to be removed from the campus and
hidden from the students. Shortly
after, however, the students stole it
and hid it in the Connecticut River, where
it remained for over year. Each year since
the classes have had a college fight for its
possession. Finally the classof 'S9 obtained
the statue and kept the secret so well that
when graduation time came they wlled 1t
to the class of 81, who have willed it to '93.

faculty the image was seen in public to-
night at the fremont House in this city,
where the class of '93 held their annual ban
quet. The image was placed at the head of
the table on large pedestal and surrounded
with ferns and beautiful flowers The ship
ment to Boston was kept secret, as 1t Will
be when returned, as the '93 boys are afraid
'94 will steal it il they get chance. The
image weighs about 1000 pounds.
