                                 ____________________

                                        Before

                                 Selya, Circuit Judge,
                                        _____________
                              Cyr, Senior Circuit Judge,

        Assistant United States Attorney, on brief for appellee.

                                 ____________________

                                  December 10, 1997
                                 ____________________

                 Per Curiam.  After careful  review of the briefs and the
                 __________

            record,  we are  not  convinced  that  the  magistrate  judge

            committed  any error.   We will  not second-guess  the weight

            accorded  to  the evidence  or  the  credibility due  to  the

            witnesses.  The  magistrate judge's findings  and conclusions

            were  adequately  detailed,  supported by  the  evidence, and

            consistent   with  the  applicable  law.    See  Clemente  v.
