   WHEELER, District Judge.

The appellant claims to be entitled to remain in the United States as a returning merchant. He admits on cross-examination that he applied for admission to, and was rejected by, the customs officials of this collection district. That decision is conclusive against his right to return, except on appeal to the secretary of the treasury. Fong Yue Ting v. U. S., 149 U. S. 698, 13 Sup. Ct. 1016, 37 L. Ed. 903.
