New York Customs Off,
cia|S at Work on Mystery.
100000 Worth Of Goods
Said 10 Have Avoided Inspection.
How Head Of Conspiracy Is Alleged
To Have Carried On Traffic.

New York. June 27.-Customs Of
fieials are seeking today-every bit Of
available evidence that may bring to
light any phase of the Jenkins $500,
600 iewelry smuggling case, whosq
qualifications are now said To involve
a prominent New York financial man.
The New Yorker is said 10 have
been the father of the scheme whereby
goods valued at nearly $2.000.aoa were
smuggled into this country. Two and
possibly more customs officers are
said To be in the plot which had its
inception several years ago and be-
fore Collector Loeb became head Of
the department. These customs officers
received. ii is said, 800 for every
trunk which they passed with only 4
casual inspection. The New Yorker
not only was able to smuggle valuable
goods, including much jewelry for
himself, but thousands of dollars of
dutiable stuff for others VINO became
in this way obligated To him.
District Attorney Wise is still close
mouthed regarding the case, but it is
feared the premature publicity in the
matter Will hinder the indictment of
the head Of the smuggling conspiracy.
There will be no compromise in the
jenkins smuggling case. Deputy Sur
Veyor Parr is the authority for the
statement that he learned of the
smusgled goods sometime before he
confronted Mrs. Jenkins i'm the mat
ter. The federal prosecutor is still
considering the eases of Il prominent
western manufacturer and southern
zeal operator in connection with the
Jenkins ease. but whether the grand
jury has the matter in hand as yet is
not known.
