LEWATHAN'S PURSER
TAKEN AS SMUGGLER
Unset Diamonds Valued at $780,
900 Seized-Plot With Belgian
Dealer Suspected.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, March 1S.-Victor de
Caro-, purser of the Leviathan, was
arrested yesterday on a charge of
attempting to smuggle unset dia-
monds, valued at approximately
$4,000. He was arraigned before
United States Commissioner Boyle
and after waving examination, was
remanded to the Tombs to await
action of the grand jury upon failure
to furnish $4,000 bail.
De Caro- was arrested by Customs
Guard Louis Cassidy as he was about
to leave the liners pier.
Customs officials declared that de
Caro's alleged smuggling attempt was
the most fragrant violation of recent
years. They expressed the belief that
de Caro- was a carrier for an Antwerp,
Belgium, merchant and that he prob
ably intended to dispose of the dia-
monds in New York.
De Caro's statement to Commits
sioner Boyle, that he believed the dia-
monds had been lost on the Leviathan
by Mrs. Alfred E. Smith, wife of the
governor, while en- route to France
recently, was discredited by Govern
ment officials. Later the purser said
he was led to this belief when he
misread the seal on the package. At
first glance, he said, he thought the
seal initials were "A. S." but exam
ination showed the initials were
IS 81
Gov. Smith, commenting on the In
cident, declared Neither 1 nor Mrs.
Smith nor anybody belonging to me
ever owned $4,000 worth of dia-
monds."
