Another Decision Against the bounty
Chalmers of Louisiana.


WASHINGTON, Jan s-The District
Court of Appeals to-day affirmed the decis-
ion of the District Supreme Court, refusing
to grant the Miles Sugar Manufacturing and
Planting Company, of Louisiana, man
damus compelling Secretary Carlisle and
Internal Revenue Commissioner Miller to
proceed under the law awarding sugar boun-
ties, notwithstanding its repeal by the new
tariff law. The case was brought a test
suit. An appeal to the United States Su-
preme Court is yet open to the planters,
the having gone against them in all
inferior tribunals.
The court, in opinion by Judge Shep-
ard, held that the repeal of the sugar
bounty provisions of the Mckinley act by
the new tariff law was immediate and COM
plete and contained no exception or pro-
lection of any rite held at the time of the
passage of the law by virtue or the pro-
visions of the Mckinley act. Consequently
there remains no duty that the respondents
Carlisle and Miller might or could law
fully perform.
remarks on the validity of the sugar
bounty provisions of the Mckinley law:
The fact that moneys have been paid out
under acts of doubtful or questionable
validity can have no great weight under a
system where the question is hard to be
raised in an effective manner. But if there
had been practice by Congress- uniform

SO clearly against the validity of this (the
