The Duty viii Be Changed from Ad
VaIoren to Specific Rates.
Washington August 1s.--The new tariff
which was signed by Mr.. II, b. sharretts,
the United States commissioner for tariff
revision in China, and by the representa-
tlyes Of six other nations changes the
present ad valorem tariff of China to Spe
cilc rates. This is In accordance with the
protocol. The specific rate agreed upon Is
based upon the average value Of products
imported into China during the past twenty
years Under the terms of the protocol
this change from nd yalorem to specific
rates does not need the signature Of Chinn.
The change will no doubt make some Slight
difference In the rates of duty, but It. Is
not regarded MS n revision of the tariff to
any general extent. II is expected that IN n
commercial treaty the tariff will be changed
to a considerable extent. The commission
ers on the part OF the United States TO
negotiate this treaty are Minister Congcr,
Consul General Goodnow at Shanghai aud
Mr.. Feely.
The treaty which they negotiate, 81 Is ex'
pected, will be completed within short
