Citroen paid a duty of 123.000. or 10
per-cent. Then It became known that
an effort had been mad to evade the
law and tha valuable pearla were seised
and held by the authorities.
Overtures for a settlement of th
ease have been made o the . treasury
department and. declined, and th suit
to recover the SO per cent duty Is to t
pushed to a TtnlPhi'dtroen has retained
former Judge Alton B. Parker as counsel
to fight the government.
Citroen the other day advised Assist
ant Secretary Reynolds of tha treasury.
In charge of customs, that ha would be
glad to send ths pearla back to Franc.
He Insisted, however, on getting back
tha K2.000 duty he had paid. This tha
government would not allow.
Jawelera all over th country are In
terested la the case, for If Citroen wins
hts point, all pearla .and precious atones
In tha future will be Imported unstrung.
