RIND’S CONFESSION USED AGAINST HIM First Officer of Ocean Liner Charged With Smuggling Diamond Rings. New York, March 6—The alleged confession of William Rind, first offi- cer of the American liner St Paul, who is charged with having smuggled diamond rings into America, was writ- ten into the evidence against him at the opening of his trial in the United States circuit court today. According to the alleged confession, Rind also brought 213 two-ounce bottles of co- caine into the country without paying duty upon them. George J. Smythe, deputy surveyor of customs, testified -that Rind con- fessed to smuggling drugs and jewelry into the Ubited States for about eight months. Two of the three diamond rings"were given to William C. Warn- er, a shoemaker, to sell, according to Smythe's version of the confession, and Warner failed to account to Rind for them. In this manner Rind lost $1,143, Smythe said. Smythe also tes- tified that Rind told him that opium was being smuggled past the customs officials by the officer .of another steamship. Warner, named in Rind's confession, is-awaiting trial for aiding and abetting the operations. Rind showed a disposition to divulge nothing further after making his_al- leged confession, Smythe said. When pressed for further details, he is said i0 have answered: “I am a ruined man; my job is gone; what is the use of mygetting others into trouble?” ALDRICH’S PLAN FOR = CURRENCY REFORM.
