S0,000 CIGARS RETURNED.

Internal Revenue Collector Lake es- inmates that S5000 cigars bearing coun- terfeit stamps were seized in this dis trict. Of this number over S00O0 have been returned to the dealers of the dis trict upon payment of the costs of seizure and genuine stamps. It was found by the collector that 1000 of the cigars seized in the district contained genuine stamps. These were immedi- ately released.
 Collector Lake will not institute pro- ceedings against any of the dealers from whom the bogusly stamped cigars were taken. Under the law the col lector could prosecute all the dealers, but as they acted in good faith no ac- tion will be taken.
