Kwong Yuen Shing v. United States

District Court, S.D. New York
Kwong Yuen Shing v. United States, 177 F. 605 (1909)
1909 U.S. App. LEXIS 5801

Kwong Yuen Shing v. United States

Opinion of the Court

PLATT, District Judge.

The importations in question consist of certain duck meat imported from China. I think “meats of all kinds, prepared or preserved” (paragraph 275, act of 1897), better describes the importations than does “poultry * * * dressed” (paragraph 278). This latter term certainly cannot be said to aptly describe, either in a common or tariff sense, articles which have been treated before importation as these have admittedly been.

The decision of the Board is therefore affirmed.
