An Important Verdict for the

Judge Choate in the United States District Court.
gave decision yesterday in the suit of the United
States VS.. Mcssrs. Bernhard Il Hutton. denying the
motion Of the defendants for q mandamus against
the Collector to allow the inspection OF certain Gus
tom House papers. The suit is brought to recover
duties on imported goods, which are supposed to
have been paid by Robert Pedrick the Custom House
clerk of the Arm, but which it is now understood
that he appropriated himself though the withdrawal
entries at the Custom House appeared correct That
there might be interruption in their business
Mcssrs. Bernhard & Hutton deposited $1os.O00
with the government, pending the result of
the suit. still claiming that Pedrick had paid the
duties the defendants asked to the Custom House
papers in the matter. This refused by the Col
lector. on the ground that this would be violation
of a regulation of the Treasury Department. In his
decision given yesterday Judge Choate holds that
somc OF the papers in the Custom House are, not
withstanding their deposit the personal property Of
the merchant. as for instance, invoices which he
receives from his foreign correspondents and which
constitute his proper and original paper, title
Of title to the goods that considering the
claim as made on their behalf defendants in this
suit the Collector was not under any obligation to
comply with III that the Collector justified in
refusing all applications to papers by counsel for
use in suit which does not conform to the regula
