REPORT.

The committee OF commerce and rnanu-
factures respectfully submit their re-
port on the memorial of the president
I'D dirAe.e-e OF the New York Slate
Company.
Two associations Of individuals in the
state of New York were formed enc in
the year 500 and the other IN 1908, for
the purpose Of exploring and Opening
quarrics Of slate, within Duchess county
in the said state. After expendlng con8i-
derable capital, they state that the,5 have
been successful in finding slate of an excel
lent quality. This they have brought to
market in great quantities, and oRei: it for
sale at reduced price Of fifty per cent.
They alledge that they are capable eif sup
PLYING the whole domestic demand for
this useful article of building, and could
easily furnish slate of various sizes and
shicknesses, for exportation But they
complain Of the rivalshp and comp e,tion
of the importers Of slate from foreign coun.
tries; who by means of superior NJ mbers
and capitals, can without sensible incon-
venience submitto temporary losses, I'M
dersell The petitioners, and interrupt the
regular course of their domestic inoIastU.
Forthe sake ofpreventing these disooura-
ging embarrassments, they solicit an IN
crease Of impost on the importation OF
slate from foreign parts.
IN the preamble to the act g m aking
further provision for the payment ofthe
debts of the United States" passed An.
gust 10Th, 1890, it's declared that duties
were laid on goods, wares, and melrhan'
die imported, for the discharge Of the
debts Of the United States, and the e7c0H.
ragement and pr0tectioa Q manufactures
by the first section of that act, slae- was
char ed with duly ofio per cent. ;ldya'
loren. Afterwards BY the act, I" for rail-
sing further sum of money for the pro-
lection of the frsnuers, ard for oth@rpur-
poses therein mentioned passed Mayed,
1892, an additional 2 - per cent, was
added but this ceased at the end Of two
years by its own limitation. Then again
an additional five per cent. ad valorem was
laid upon imported slate, by the first sec
ton Of the act for LAYING additional du-
ties on goods, wares, and merchandise,
into the United States" passed
June 9TH, 1894.
a further impost of 2 10 per cent. was
laid by the first section of the ''act further
to protect the commerce and seamen OF the
United States against the Barbary pow
ers." passed March 25th, 1904, upon all
goods, wares, and merchandise charged
Bile with an ad valorem duty. Slate comes
within this class of articles. The money
goes to "the Mediterranean
fund - and this additional 2 IL per cent
Will not be discontinued until three month";
