Imported Natural Gas Must Pay
Duty.

The collector of customs at Buffalo,
N. Y, recently submitted to the Treasury
Department the question as to whether
natural gas imported into that port from
Canada is liable TO duty under the tariff
law. He says that the Buffalo Natural Gas
and Feel Company is engaged in laying a
large eight-inch main pipe across Niagara
river for the transmission of natural
gas produced in Canada, TO be used
on this eide for fuel purposes. that
it will be brought in large quantities and
take the place of fuel in many hundred
households in the northern part of Buffalo,
and that the quantity received is TO be
measured by meter located on the Am
erican side of the river. In replying to the
Collector, Assistant Secretary Spauldipg
says:
"under the circumstances mentioned,
the department concurs with you in the
opinion that Illuminating gas is wholly diff
ferent from electricity, and that it is ner-
chantable commoiity which can be meas
ured as readily as liquids and other gases,
it would be liable TO daty en- importation
Tne proper rate Of duty would seem 10 be
that prescribed for unenume rated unmanu-
featured articles, viz, 10 per cent. sd val
oyau ."
