posed by the Dirgley bill.
Collector Willcutts of this port today,
levied on a cargo of fish on one of the

that the fish levied on cannot be admitted
free, as they were caught in Canadian
waters by Canadian fishermen in the en-
pioy OF the Booth compcny.
The company. however. has filed q pro-
test In which 1t is stated that 1t is an
American corporation. composed of citf-
zens of the United States: THAT the fish
were caught by cts owned tby the COM
pany: that they were packed and trans
ferred by It: that for this reason the fish
should be admitted free under a provision
of the Dingley bill which allows citizens of
the United States to bring in fish free of
duty which they catch in foreign fresh
waters.
The decision Of Collector Willcutts will
be appealed to the Secretary of the Treas
Try and II the company 10 decided against
there. 1t ia said 1t will be taken into court
as q test case.
