Hold Huge Diamond
Princess Fatima to
Paw American Bills

Now York, Mar. 9.-The A carat
diamond, which only eight short
months ago blazed the way for Prin-
cess Fatima, Sultana of kaboul. into
the presence of President Harding,
may delay her departure for Afghan
istan, which was to have taken place
tomorrow.
Charging that the fabulous stone
, was smuggled into the country when
thes princess arrived last July, Of
ficials of the United States customs
department today sought to gain pos
session Of it. But Sheriff Percy Ma
gel. who has held the diamond for
several months as security for nu-
merous creditors, refused to give it
up.
After hearing arguments Of counsel
for one sheriff and customs depart
ment, Supreme court Justice Irving
Lehman advises the latter to obtain
.. federal order directing that the
stone be turned over to them. The
agents announced they would pro-
coed at once to do so.
Princess Fatima, whose be-dia-
mond nostrils and dazzling wardrobe
amazed Broadway when she arrived
in this country last July, did not eX-
press any considerable interest when
she learned of the charges that she
evaded duty on her jewel. She con-
tinued packing her meagre effects
prepared to sail for her native land,
as the guest of the British govern
ment-a penniless and disillusioned
woman-an object of charity.
Her three sons will accompany her
on one of the tramp freighters sail

will travel overland, probably afoot,

sumo the simple life again in an st

their experiences in America.
The princess will wear her noge
Jewel back TO Afghanistan. But the
big diamond will remain in a safe de-
post vault here to await settlement
of the demands of her creditors and

insisted, asserting that Ponzi's only
objection TO standing trial was that
he desired to keep what liberty he has

prevails in such matters between the
states and between the states and the
federal government, he added. the at

bring him into court to answer the ~
indictments which have been found
against him under the state laws. Such
a proceeding. he asserted, would not

States, because during the period of
PonZfs trial in the state court he
would be serving the time under the
federal sentence.
William II. Lewis, counsel for
Ponzi declared later that a solution
of the controversy would be to parole
the prisoner after he had served one
third of his federal sentence. Nj
Lewis sought to make the suggestion
to the court, but having exhausted The
time allotted him could not be rec
