Interception and seizure of gold from an arriving passenger was upheld: officers acting on reasonable belief had jurisdiction to search and seize irrespective of exact point of interception. Possession of unmarked notified goods shifted the evidential burden to the possessor to prove lawful acquisition; absence of documentary proof and an un retracted admission sustained the statutory presumption of smuggling.
