Government agents said the cus
toms value of the cache found on
the freighter Granville In July was
$90,000. They estimated the returns
on the smugglers' market would have
been about $200,000.
Hslng took the sentence passively,
but Bow asked through the Inter

deported.
"Tell him I'm trying to do some
thing he doesn't like," replied Judge
James A. Pee.
Carl Donaueh, United States at
