Neely Seeks Reimbursement From U S After Cuba Trial
Washington reports that C F W Neely, once convicted in a Cuban postal fraud case and later granted amnesty by Cuba, has asked the attorney general to reimburse money found in his table possession at arrest. The sum, 524 dollars, was sent to Cuba as an axible at Neely’s trial and returned by the Cuban military government to the war department. Secretary Foot advised the postmaster general that the money was returned and held per directions, with the postmaster not accepting it. The issue involves a balance between the Cuban government and late Cuban military authorities and the disposition of funds.
