The Investigations. however, have
been so quietly conducted by secret
service men that the first inkllng the
public had OF IL was when II was an

IL Is now claimed hat Uncle Sam
has been feeced and robbed out OF

the duty is Sl.s5 per pound. IL Is
claimed that hundreds OF bales of
Cuban tobacco which leave Havana Is
admitted into the United States as

stance involving n transaction OF large
proportions between havana, Tampa
and New York.
