Cuba
The Sanitary Department of Havana destroyed more than 8,000 pounds of opium valued at $800,000 in a special furnace on the " San Francisco " wharf.
United States Secret Service agents tracked the shipment from the Far East, through Asia Minor and France. At Bordeaux they unofficially superintended its shipment to Cuba. Then they cabled the Cuban authorities.
