Gardner, in an Interview credited to her by a local morning newspaper, ac- knowledges her own res .sibility of the art goods which have n seized by customs officials In Chicago, be- cause of having been brough into this country by Mrs. Emily B. C. Chad- bourne, under an alleged false declar- ation In which the goods were describ- ed as "household effects," but declares she did not know of Mrs. Chadbourne' s Itutcllt of bringing them to this coun- F!- The statement attributed to Mrs. Gardner Is In part as follows: "The customs department has al- ways persecuted me, and I have mild thousands of. dollars upon objects of art as a result of their Impositions. The goods In Chicago belong to me. I had lent them to Mrs. Charbonrne for her home in Europe. i doubt if the articles would total $60,000 in val- no. and I think Mrs. Chadhourne had a perfect right to bring them Into this country as ‘household goodn.‘ “i don't know whether the $70,000 in fines and penalties was paid by me or not, as I have a man who looks after such things. I have not paid 880. 000 to keep the art objects froth being sold at auction. If the duty is paid in full and a. still bigger fine is paid without protest, i dont see why the customs people should take the articles, too.',' SEALING-CRUISER SEIZED.

Japan- ese newspapers rebeived by the Shins- no Maru have bitter articles regard- ing the sentenca of the six arrested seal hunters of the seized schooner Miyo Mara. to death at.

The Hochi Shimhun says: , ‘There Is in Japan a proverb which says: ‘Old wounds are always in dan- ger 0f bleeding.‘ " The affair may be only a. trifling in- cident, but. in case the death sentence is executed, no one can predict the future relations between Japan and Russia. ,_.__.._..__.
