violations of tho customs laws was 5S,

sG6O. 050 The receipts for the year exceed
ed those of the preceding year by sSO5S,-
lsS while tho cost OK collections was not
appreciably increased.
Opium smuggling, the report says, has
decreased largely during the last year. as
the result principally OF the reduction of
tho rate of duty from SIP to So per pound.
One hundred and thirty-eight thousand
nine hundred and fifty pounds Of smoking
opium was imported at san Francisco
during the year 1895, upon which 1913, iOi
was paid i'm duties. Last year the amount
was 9s, 1876 pounds upon which duties ag.
gregating S5SS, 756 was paid.
The report shows that there has hcon a
noticeable increase in the smuggling of
diamonds since tho duties on precious
stones wos increased by tho tariff act OF
/ 1924. A return to the rate of duty pro
vided in the act Of 1890, Mr.. Crowley says
