York and the opinion OF the court was
announced by Chief Justice Fuller, who

Isle of Pines had been considered as am
Integral part Of cuba and that 1t could
not be held to be covered by article two
OF that treaty. which Included only is
lands i'm the vicinity OF Porto Rico.
The case originated in connection

cigars by Pearcy In September, 1898, but

to- time passed in the hope that the STA
tus OF the island might be definitely de-
clded by legislation or diplomacy The
cigars were made In the isle Of Pines
OF tobacco grown there and when they
arrived Pearcy refused to pay duty on
the ground that they were OF domestic
origin. The collector thereupon seized
them and Pearcy appealed to the U.

relief. as that court sustained a dsinlr-
