In 1869, for articles not enumerated, double the
customary harbor rates were charged on all goods.
Under the present administ ration the rates I'M
enumerated articles are:-Me rchandise subject to
an obligatory quarantine, 100 per cent above the
ordinary harbor rates: merchandise subject TO an
optional quarantine, fifty per cent above the Ordi-
nary harbOr rates: merchandise exempt from quaran-
tine, twenty-five per cent above the ordinary harbor
rates. IL may be charged thar even this re-
ducti0n Is not enough; but men cannot
be induced TO run the risk OF their lives
by working in the midst OF conagion without
the inducement o. extra compensation. Besides,
they are not allowed 70 do any WORK outside OF
Quarantine and as they are required 10 be on hand
AZ all times whether there ~ work for them or not,
they need 10 have some extra pay to make up Tor
the time spent In Ideness while waiting for en-
