SMUGGLING CASES ENDED .
SYDNEY, August 18-The smug-
gling case which attracted much at- tention here for some time has at last been concluded, as the defence did not relish thelidea of risking any further contrailictions in the eviden- ce. The case was against Captain Dicks of the schooner Miantonomah, who was accused of having defraud- ed the customs department of $2,000 duty _imyeblff in siiirits iniuieii from St. Pierre at Scaterie. 'l‘iie magis- trate will reniler his decision Friday. The abrupt ending of.tlie case was somewhat of a surprise to the pros- ecution, for they expected that Capt- ain Dicks would be put on thestand on his own behalf. The defence, how- ever, rested the case on the evidence adduced by the proseciitiiin in the examination of M. Maganet, the members of the sciioonei"s crew, and the customs ofileers. The direct con- tradictions coiitaiiied in the evidence of M. Maganet is opposed to the rncinbers of the crew seem to have made tlie_ defence wary of risking further evidence.
