FRAXK J. Washington. D. June to sailing for Europe, on the Fourth of July. Secretary Shaw, will, it is stated, appoint a new supervising agent- of the special agents in the treasury depart ment.

to succeed W. S. Chance, who retires because of the delicate health of. his wife, to lake up less exciting work in another climate. It is believed the gentleman to succeed Mr.

Chance will be Ralph W. Clayton of Oskaloosa. state committeeman for the sixth district of Iowa. Appointment Not Announced. of the twenty-eight special agents of the treasury.

He is constantly in communication with the special agents and directs their movements. If the supervising agent gets a tip that diamonds are being smuggled into the country to escape duty and that there is reason to believe that a certain individual who departed from Liverpool on a certain steamer which will arrive here on a certain date is loaded with gems, the supervising agent instructs a special "agent to take means to get aboard the steamer before she reaches' port and have an interview 1 with the'aforementioned individual. Catching a Smuggler. This occurs not infrequently. The smuggler thinks he has everything nailed down; tfiat the deal is closed and all he has to do is the goods when, just as to collect his effects preparatory to landing, he is introduced to a suave 'gentleman who enters into general conversation, which in the course of time becomes specific and then peculiar questions are asked Then the smuggler realizes he is up against a federal officer.

The cable is swift and very convenient and many a smuggler who sailed from England or France congrafulat ing himself upon his artistic maneuv- ring, finds himself face to-face with a revenue officer. wHh blood in his eye and facts in his inside vest pocket, even before land is sighted on this side down duty. He ponders th proposition and decides to take th chances of smuggling them through He makes effort and fails. Can h. then put up the $15,000 and lug awa his game? Well, hardly.

He loses th diamonds and there is no way unde heaven by which he can get them back either. They are sold at auction, anc if he gets them he must bid mor than, somebody else is willing pay.

(t is understood that Mr. Chance believes the Iowa man will succeed him.

and tips have come over from New York tending to confirm" this view of the case. for. Assistant Secretary Armstrong says a good deal of difficulty has "been e'x- perienced lately with diamond smugglers. On account of the exceedingly small compass into which thousand' of dollars' worth of diamonds may be packed, it is a difficult matter to al ways apprehend the smuggler, yet acting in conjunction with the wilj It is known to a certainty that agents of the government in" Europe. number of influential senators have exerted their influence in favor of the appointment of Mr.

Mr. Clayton simply says he knows nothing about the matter. He admits having heard some things that were not unpleasant to hear and pleads guilty to the charge that the appointment would not be declined: further than this he has nothing to say The matter will be finally determine'd in two or three weeks.
