S9O7oi0 80 against ST. 70647 % for the corresponding
period in the previous year, showing an increase this
year of S20U,593 OF. 1t must be borne in mind that
these amounts collected under two taris-one of
1912 and the other Of 1916 The mportations under the
tariff Of 1916 must have been many per larger
