A statement issued yesterday by Col.
lector Nevada N. Stranahan contained
the information that the Treasur y De.
partment and the Diamond Cutters and
Importers Protective Association of this
city have entered into far-reaching ooah-
ton which bids fair to put an end to dia-
mond smuggling at this port at least. In
addition, Collector Stranahan throws out
a rather broad hint that the prosecution
following detection whether the offender
Be a professional or an amateur collector
will be prompt, vigorous and effective.
The statement Is as follows
Collector Stranahan said to-day at the
Custom House that unusual efforts were
being made by the Diamond Cutters and
Importers' Protective Association Of this
city to guard against the smu sgling Of pre-
ci9us stones at this port and that in these
sSspsTsss s' Nc
t Would be practically npossibe to brins
foreign purchases Of this kind into the country
without aayo aI. information reaching the
ieniency would be out OF the gu estion.
The association has been in negotia-
ton with the Treasury Department for
some time, with the result that a oompre-
hensive system has now been devised.
Both the Government and the association
have greatly increased the detective forces
maintained in the various cities Of Europe,
and hereafter the two forces will work in
unison. To this end the association g
force here has been lessened in order to
add to that abroad. The information OBJ
tanned in Europe by the associations de-
tectives will be given to the Governments
agents, who viii notify the Customs Of
fcers Of this port.
AN The big diamond concerns of Europe
NIL be ua0er constant scrutiny. Sales
NH b. watched closely and information
Of them win be forwarded here 80 that it
may be ascertained IL duty is paid when
the stones are imported. Some Of the
associations detectives are in the trade,
tho better to watch affairs and to keep
tabs on big purchases for importation.
Not every small store is to be watched,
but quick intelligence will be received OF
every big transaction which includes any
importation here.
It will be the duty Of the detectives to
know just who can afford to buy diamonds
and who cannot. 1t is not hard task to
keep track Of the private sales, and the
diamonds purchased thus will be watched
until the duty is paid at this port. II 1t
is not paid, Collector StranahAn's promise
will become performance.

NEEDLESS POLICE REVELS,
Grout Insists-Wonders n Detective
Can't Win bet.

Comptroller circuit said yesterday that
while he would probably be compelled
to pay ultimately the bills sent to him
for the thousands Of dollars spent by de-
tectives In collecting evidence against
disorderly houses and gambling houses,
he was hopeful that the publicity given
to the nature OF some OF those bills would
have the effect Of modifying the system
which has hitherto allowed the detectives
to expend public money on what were
mere revels for themselves
Mr.. circuit repeated yesterday that it
was not against the bills turned in by the
District Attorneys men that he was OBJ
jecting. Results have followed the out
lays OF those men. Gambling has prac-
tically been suspended in this city as
result Of the efforts Of the District Attorney,
and the Comptroller is satisfied that the
city has had some return for the money
it is called upon to pay for the work per-
formed by Jacobs and his assistants.
up Mr. Grout. He would like to put an end
to the system which permits plain-clothss
men to spend from 90 to $50 a night In buy
ing champagne and cigars. Nor does ne
regard 1t az necessary that q detective
should have to spend anywhere from 80
against gambling house. One point upon
which he laid stress yesterday was that the
bills in no instance show that detective
ever won bet, although some detectives
have testified to winnings.
To few OF the bills now lying In the
Comptroller's Office there are attached
receipts for expenditures. but in the great
mass the authorities have to depend on
the word of the detective. That advantage
