AFTER TOBACCO sMUGG1ERs.
Collector Stranahan Says He Has Clue
to the Gang

NEW YORK. December 31.-The Evening
Post says today: Nevada N. Stranahan,
collector Of the port. from certain evidence
in his hands. believes that there is a regu-
larly organized gang of tobacco smugglers
engaged in bringing the leaf into this coun-
try on the North Atlantic passenger liners.
He is satisfied that he knows the princi-
pals in the illegal traffic, and he is prepar-
ing now to close the nets around them and
arrest the ringleaders in the scheme and as
many Of their tools and underlings as he
can lay hands on and find legal proof
against. In line with his plans to root out
the evil many seizures of tobacco have
been made recently. Mr.. Stranahan said
today:
practically every month since I have
been in office seizures of smuggled toba eco
have been made. Always 1t has been Su-
matra wrappers, on which the duty is S1S5
a pound. Every evidence points to an or
ganized trade. and I am satisfied that l
know the men behind 1t. The stokers and
sailors whom we have arrested and con-
victed have had their fines paid in every
case"

CASTRO HEARD FROM
WILLING TO INTRUST HIS CASE
TO ARBITRATION.
It is Believed That the Way is Practi-
cally Clear for Friendly Settlement
of Venezuelan Troubles.

The answer of President Castro to the
proposal of the allies to submit to the ar
bitration of The Hague tribunal the Vene-
zuelan difficulties has reached washington
through Minister Bowen. The answer
amounts to a general acceptance OF the
principles Of the proposition, President
Castro being willing to submit his case to
the arbitration of fair and impartial au-
thorities The details of the answer will
not be published here now in advance OF
it's reception by the European powers and
in fact it may be withheld entirely from
publication on the ground that it really be-
longs to those powers.
Today the answer Is being prepared at
the State Department for transmission to
Europe. AS it is quite long and will un-
doubtedly require careful consideration Dy
the foreign offices at London, Berlin and
Rome, it is not expected that any further
steps toward final settlement can be
taken for a day or two.
The feeling here, however. based on a
knowledge of Castro's position, Is that his
answer practically clears the way for sub
mission Of the case to arbitration, though
it will still be necessary to place each OIL
the many steps by which that desired result
can be obtained. Such, for instance, would
be the arrangement of a preliminary COM
mission which would prepare the protocol
prescribing the limitations to be imposed
upon the arbitration when the matter final
ly comes before The Hague tribunal.
The answer, such as it is, has given great
satisfaction here, marking, as it does, a
phase of the negotiations to wind up the
old wear.

THE COURTS TO DECIDE.
Dispute Over Property Between Catho-
lies in the Philippines.

Secretary Root has, by decision just
rendered. practically thrown into the hands
Of the civil courts IN the Philippines the
decision Of the merits Of the controversy
over property rights between the two ele-
ments Of the Catholic Church in the islands,
which has finally developed into an actual
national schism.
The schismatics.. under the leadership Of
priest Of great energy and ability. named
Agilpay. have retained possession of a
large amount OF church pr operty, claiming
it under congregational rights and as being
the true church.x. The Roman Catholic
Church appeale&iaH Gov. Taft to dispossess
these schismatics and place IL in possession
of its property The governor held that the
case was one for the adjustment Of the civil
courts. and then the case came to Wash
ington on appeal Secretary tRoot has just
sustained Gov. Taft's view. The Importance
OF the matter to the United State govern
ment lies in the fact that the property in
controversy is part OF that. the title to
which must be passed 10 the United States
II the negotiations now IN progress between
Gov Taft and Mgr, Guido succeed. Besides,
it Is highly desirable that thesUnited States
government be not drawn into schismatic
controversy. and this Twill he avoided by
Secretary Roots action.

NO COMPLAINTS RECEIVED.
Reports Regarding the Moundsville
Prison Will Probably Be Investigated.

Major Strong, the official who has charge
Of federal prisons and prisoners for the
Department Of Justice. said today that no
official complaints had reached the depart
ment relative to insantary conditions and
the prevalence of consumption in the
Moundsville, W. Va, prison, where the pris-
oners of the District are confined.
"All we know in this direction" said Maj
Strong, sis what we have seen in the news
papers lately. No one has complained here
that the prison is unhealthy because Of the
prevalence of consumption or any other
disease. We do know that the prison is
somewhat crowded, and have known that
for some time. We have been considering
the advisabiIity Of doing something to re-
lieve the congestion, if it was found to be
unsatisfactory and injurious to federal pris-
oners."
Major Strong stated that in view Of the
publications that have been made the de-
partment will probably make investiga-
tion to ascertain what truth there is in the
statements that many prisoners are dying
from consumption, and about conditions be-
ing such as to make the disease infectious.
