CUSTOMS CLAIM DUTY.
On Interesting Curios In Possession of
the Officers of Eighth Infantry.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. I0.-Offlcers
of the Eighth United States Infantry,
who arrived from the Philippines on
the transport Buford, are at logger
heads with the local customs officials
over the admission, duty free, of a
trunkful of trophies from the far East
All the articles were Intended as a
gift to the museum of the United
States military academy . at West
Point, but they may never reach their
destination If the treasury department
tries to tolled duty from the officers
of the Eighth. '
Assistant Surveyor of the Port St
John says he cannot pass the articles
j without consulting higher authority.
Principal among the arttcles contain
ed In the trunks are two religious im
ages and the robes In which they were
I draped. One of these Is an ebony fig
ure of the Saviour, known in Southern
Luison us "The Black Christ."
Thi-he Images were seized by the
Eighth Infantry at the hedquarters of
native religious sect In the town of
Pagsangan, province of Laguna, while
the regiment was in operation in that
vicinity. The religious sect was known
as the Calorun and the Images are
I said to have been used by the insurgent
leaders to exact war revenues from
the people by imposing -on their cred
ulity. A Filipino ventriloquist, it is
said, would apparently cause the om
uges to speak and order the natives
to give their money so that the Ameri
cans might be driven from the Islands.
The carvings appear to have been
made within the Inst two or three
years.
