AMERICAN LIQUOR LAW.
QUESTION OF TRANSHIPMENT. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received August 19, 11.25 p.m. New York, August 18. The New York Times’ Washington correBpondent reports that Britain has filed a protest against the American seizure of a British schooner outside the three-mile limit on the ground that she was smuggling liquor into the United States. Mr. Mellon (Secretary to the Treasury) announced that the ruling that the prohibition of transhipment to the United States of alcoholic beverages is lifted as th result of the Anchor Line suit, the Courts having granted the line an injunction restraining the Collector of Customs at New York from interfering with the shipment of liquor originally from Glasgow and consigned to a foreign port. The Supreme Court will now probably decide the issue at Chicago.
