paragraphs enumerated" Most OF these
Suggestions originated with General

relates 30 varnishes. and IL so construct
ed as TO make IL appear that Japan
varnish r. sometimes known as gold
which Is not the case. The correction
provides for their separation, but leaves
the duty az fixed In the act at % per
cent. ad valorem. In the act as It
stands there Is a misplaced comma be-
tween the word spirit and varnlshes,
which IL Is proposed TO strike out.
The change In paragraph as adds the
word artists before ''colors." so as
to provide "a duty of 20 per cent. al

cent per pound on fish. Paragraph 217
In changed to read "plums, prunes. figs

vide for leyying the prescribed duty oil
10 per cent. when sweetmeats and fruits
are imported. preserved In spirits al
well as In sugar. 20 which the opera.
tions OF this act are limited,
Paragraph pa is amended so as Il
add: Provide for the collection ot
duty of 10 per cent. ad valorem wheT
orchids and other plants are imported
chiefly for forcing under glass for flow
ers.'' the word chiefly not appearing
IN the present act.
Paragraph 276. relating to iaces. edg
tngs. etc. Is amended 30 as to includ,
embroidered wearing apparel and tex
