$499 FOR SMUGGLED OPIUM
Last Years Big Seizure Is a Laid
Ghost
Judge WeIIborn Finds That Jappe, Cornell
and BadiIIo Were Government Agents
and Entitled to No Reward

1.-The United States vs.. 140 five-tael cans
Of opium" occupied the attention of the
district court yesterday. and resulted in
the discovery that $499 informers' fees
will not be lost to the frugal government
at Washington. Jappe VS.. the United
States is the more familiar title of the ac.
tion, s. H. Jappe OF Santa Monica claim
ing the reward for giving information
that resulted in the capture and convic-
tion of the Mineola smuggers and the
breaking up of ring that is supposed to
have been operating for a long time. The
seizure created a great stir at the time.
in September last, it having been the
first big one of its kind, and great set
back was given the handlers of contra
band goods on the southern coast though
recent evidences of smuggling have been
discovered in the Chinese quarter and
down at the ports.
3 The claim of Jappe was contested by
Pedro Badillo and Sackett Cornell. who
stated that they were the real intormers.
who arrested the smugglers and seized
their booty. The men. Gus Allgren. the
saloon and boarding house keeper Frank
Mendez and AL Smith, steward OF the
Mlneola, were convicted and sentenced to
various terms. The sale of the opium
realized $439.
Jappe claimed on the stand yesterday
that he gave the first information to
Special Agent Pherix of the treasury
and to Collector of the Port John 7.
Gaffe-; he had the smugglers covered
with his gun up In Santa Monica canyon
when Cornell and Badillo walked up.
Cornell and Badillo claimed to have had
first information, and Collector Gaffey
stated that they were appointed by him
as deputy inspectors to capture the out.
fit. They watched the situation carefully
and knew when the OPT um was loaded
into trunk from the Mineola to be taken
to Chinatown in wagon. They waited
by the road. saw the men in the wagon
with the trunk go by. then walked around
a hill to head them off. They found Jap
pc ahead of them with his shotgun leveled
on the wagon. He dropped his weapon
and covered Cornell, but did not fire.
Cornell and Badillo seized the opium and
arrested the prisoners. Jappe was left
out of the deal.
To this he demur.ed and retained Gen.
eral Pierce to procure the reward. Cor
nell and Badillo had Henry T. Gage;
George J. Denis looked out for the gov
by the court that Jappe was an appointed
deputy under Colonel Gaffey, so was
Cornell and so was BadIllo. all acting
without pay at the time under a certain
agreement, they afterward getting So per
diem for what they did as government in
spectors. Thus they were practically gov
ernment agents and not entitled to any
reward or lntormers fees whatever; and
so the court will report to the treasury,
and neither OF the contestants will get
