many importers: big shipments of
goods might have arrived a few min

duties on which were increased by the
new Law. A shipment might escape
application OF the higher duties by

The question was not settled until
after endless litigation and the bring

of the United States, which held that
the Dingley act became a law at six
minutes after four o'clock on July "a.
1897-which was the exact time the
President signed it.
Just now there is a prospect that
the same litigation may follow the
signing of the Payne-Aldrich bill by
the President. In the house bill, the
language of the Dingley law that the
measure should be effective on its pas

changed to "the day following It's

the house wording, some official will
