The trial was long and expensive, and the claims of the government were at every step resisted ; but the jury found that the sugar in question, which had been entered as of the lowest grade, was really of high grade and had been artificially colored with intent to evade the payment of the proper duties ; the Court at the same time saying to the officials, as the rule for their guidance in determining the value of sugars for assess- ment : " You must look through the artificial coloring, and the... sugar should be classified according to the color which it would bear if it were not artificially colored. " The cargo in question was not forfeited, as the jury found that the Balti- more importers were not in any way parties to the fraud ; but the Treasury Department immediately issued stringent or- ders to its officials to advance the duties on all imported sugars artificially colored, to exact fines and forfeitures where fraud could be found, and to adopt other measures than comparison with the Dutch standards to ascertain the true value of sugars ; more especially the use of an optical instrument called the polariscope, which merchants generally had before resorted to in order to protect themselves in deal- ing in sugars, and which when properly used is acknowledged 11 to show the real saccharine strength of sugar with such un- failing accuracy that no cargo of sugar, in respect to the com- mercial value of which there is any dispute, is now ever bought or sold anywhere in the world except upon the po- lariscope determination.
