THE COURTS.
OLD TARIFF LAW ENTIRELY.
THE MCKINLEY ACT SUPREME.
JUDGE LACoMBE Hosss THAT IT REPEALs THE


Lawyers all over the country have been training
their guns on the Mckinley Tariff Act in search Of
vulnerable points, ever since it went into operation
and one of these attacks rcpulsed In the United
states Circuit Court here yesterday. L. Straus Son on
october IL and 20 imported on the Polynesia and
Moravia lot of Bohemian glass. Collector Erhartt
levied duty of 60 per cent on it, under Paragraph
No. JOG OF the Mckinley Act, as articles Of glass,
colored Tho importers declared that duty OF 30
pcr cent should have been levied, under Paragraph No.
143 OF the Tariff Act OF 1ee3 which lays that rate on
Bohemian glass They alleged that the new law had
not repealed the old one, and that the provision Of the
act OF 1893 should rule as it was more specific than
that of the Mckinley act, the more specific enuner-
ton having the precedence
The real question was whether the new act repealed
the old one. The Mckinley measure repeals all acts
and parts Of acts inconsistent with it, but the I'M
porters argued that the provision OF the old law re
iating to bohemian glass repealed, as II was not
sent with the corresponding section OF inc nc"
