Of Interest to Retail 

 Florists 



The long-contested protest of H. 

 Bayersdorfer & Co. against the assess- 

 ment of duty by the collector at the 

 port of Philadelphia on certain im- 

 ported goods tor florists' use has been

 importer and by the Government. As 

 it will no doubt serve as a precedent 

 for many future cases of a similar na- 

 ture, we give a synopsis of the de- 

 cision as recorded by the Secretary of 

 the Treasury:
