An Important Customs Decision.Application* have been made to the Treasury

Department by importers who had tobacco inbonded warehouses prior to the passage of theact of October 1, 181)0, for permission to with¬draw the same at the weights as ascertained attho time of said withdrawal. These applica¬tions aro based on the sccond provisoof section 50 of the tariff act which pre¬scribes that "when duties are basedon the weight of merchandise deposited iu anypublic or private bonded warehouso said du¬ties shall be levied and collected upon theweight of such merchandise at the time of itswithdrawal." Assistant Secretary Spauldingsay* that after a careful consideration of thedepartment is of opinion that Buch applica¬tions cannot be grunted inasmuch as underthe first proviso of said section specialprivilege is conferred upon merchandise,which, like tobacco, is subject to increasedduties uuder the new tariff act of allowing itto be withdrawn for consumption at any timoprior to February 1 next upon thepayinont of dutv at tho lower ratesprescribed by the old tariff sets. Gen.Spaulding says further; "Mcrchandiae sub¬ject to increased duty under tho newtariff act i* thus entitled to withdrawal at theold rates, which are lower than the now rates,and consequently it must be held that thowithdrawal entries for consumption of suchmerchandise made prior to February 1, 1891,must cover the same qualitv of merchandiseas to weight*, a* if the entnea hadbeen made prior to the date whenthe act of October 1, 18'JO, tookeffect: in other word* the department must de¬cide that when the imporier shall elect towithdraw his merchandise uuder the first pro¬viso, a rcweighing at the time of withdrawalcannot be allowed for the reason that tho good*BO withdrawn by virtue thereof must be treatedas exclusively subject to the provisions of thelaw in foroe prior to the passage of "said act"
