THINKS CONsUELLO SAFE.
Claimed She Was at brunswick For
Orders.

Brunswick, Ga, May 5.-Mr. Benite Pa
! drosa, local representative of the Spanish
bark Consuella, claims that the vessel IS
not liable to seizure under the papers she
left port with. Mr.. Padrosa admits tina;
the Consuello left Brunswick quarantine
without entering or clearing at the custom
house He claims, however, that she came
TO Brunswick for orders, and as far as the
public knows, may have received them
here to proceed to some other port TOR a
cargo. The fact that she came to Bruins
wick for orders he contends, releases the
vessel from liability of seizure, and the
Presidents proclamation when correctly
rt ad, viii sustain his views.
This does not meet with the construc-
ton placed on the proclamation by Col
lector of Customs Dunn. He states that
the Interpretation to him is different from
ideas entertained by Mr. Padrosa.
