importers of San Francisco, asking if in
voices OF sugar received from the Hawai-

the passage by Congress OF bill to re-.
gulate Hawaiian reciprocity treaty, will
be admitted free of duty. 1t seems that
number OF cargoes have already ar

tons would have been promulgated by
the State Department before this, but
importers were met with the demand for
the usual custom duties. The attorney
here presented the question bdt was told
that importers might pay the duties
under protest if they so desire, thus re-
serving any rights if they may be found
to have. but the payment is obligatory.

the law states specifically, that on and
AFTER PRONUNCIATION by the President OF
the acceptance by the Hawaiian Govern
