New York, Sept. Circus men
today held a meeting and decided to
begin an active protest against that
phase OF the new tariff law which
prevents them from taking their
menageries on foreign tours,
Under the Dingley law it was pos
sible to take all animals to foreign
countries and bring them back with
out the payment OF duty, but under
the Payne bill all domestic animals
exported must pay the regular duty
when they are brought back. The
new law makes an exception in the
case of animals sent abroad for pur-
poses of exhibition at fairs or expo
sitions, but these are not held to in
clude circuses.
