 The case has established an import ant precedent whereby unless fore .gn ship is actually caught in the act of smuggling she cannot be molested under what the prohibition authorities call the "Hoovering act" In the mean time the federal court of New York have decided that vessels under the American flag and engaging in world wide transportation are legally entitl- ed to carry and sell liquor in foreign ports. This ruling followed the dismis sal of suit brought by the American Steamship company to enjoin the en- forcement of the Daugherty prohibi- tion embargo.
