The free list is not SO much changed as
II was supposed il would be, and abstrac-
tions from il are far more numerous than
additions. The date when the FREQ list
shall 60 into effect was changed from
Dune 1. 1894, to June 30, 1891. Apples of
all kinds were stricken from the free list
and placed on the dutiable list as are aiso
beef. mutton and PORK and bone char,
suitable for use in deodorizing sugar. BIZ
luminous coal, sbale, coal slack and coke
were transferred 10 the dutable list, lcav-
ing anthracite on the free list. Diamonds
and other precious stones rough or uncut,
were added 10 the free list; iron ore and
sugar were moved TO the duiable list.
There is a touch of reciprocity in the pro-
viso attached to the paragraph admitting
agricultural implements free, tho proyiso
being 10 the effect that all articles mem
toned in the paragraph "When imported
from any country which lays an import
duty on like articles coming from the
United States, shall be subject to the du-
ties existing prior TO the passage of THIS
act"
The administrative features Of the bill
are substantially identical with those Of
the house bill with the exception that in
the Wilson bill personal effects are not
subject to duty, this was enlarged to read
"and personal and household effects
specifically enumerated in the new list of
this act" The sections covering the tax
on spirits are new throughout. The main
section of the senate bill is as follows
That on and after the first day of the sec
ond calendar month after the passage of
this act there shall be levied and collected
Oh all distilled spirits in bond at that time
or that had been or that may be then or
thereafter produced in the United States,
on which tax had not been paid before
that day tax of Sl.l1 on each proof
gallon or wine gallon when below proof,
and n proportionate tax at like rate on
all fractional parts of such proof or wine
gallon. provided, in computing the tax on
any package spirits all the fractional parts
Of gallon, less one-tcnth, shall be ex-
cluded.'
