Lord & Taylor v. United States

Lord & Taylor v. United States
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit · Decided February 8, 1910 · Lacombe, Noyes, Ward
178 F. 270; 1910 U.S. App. LEXIS 4507

Lord & Taylor v. United States

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The various authorities relied upon by appellants are referred to in the opinion of the Board of General Appraisers. G. A. 5,018 (T. D. 23,348). The question is a close one, but we are of the opinion that it would extend these authorities too far to hold that a woven fabric which contains 37 per cent, of jute is a “woven fabric of cotton,” which is the definition of cotton cloth given in paragraph 310.

The decision is affirmed.
