which put an end to the long drawn,
out controversy as to the value OF
Limoges china. And IN doing this
Il had established a precedent and a
principal of cooperation between the
manufacturing interests involved and

Is capable OF being extended to other
classes OF merchandise. with excel

During the year the department
has entered into an agreement with.

kinds of pottery there manufactured
Some minor details yet remain to be
settled but these do not affect the
harmonious results that have been
achieved.
The report calls attention to the.
commission OF which Assistant Sec
rotary James b. Reynolds was the
chairman which went abroad last
year to discuss with German officials
certain important matters Affecting
the proper administration OF the GUS
toms laws and an agreement reached
with that country contained a pro-
vision that the Chamber of Conn
merce OF that country should be en-
titled to furnish certificates of value
of merchandise manufactured or pro-
duced in their respective communi-
ties which should be regarded by the
appraising officers of the United
States as competent evidence in the
finding Of value. This privilege was
subsequently extended to the Cham
20
and it was granted only after it was
ascertained that these organizations
were governmental in their charac-
ter so that In case OF a careless or
false certificate OF value being sent
to this country by such an organiza-
ton, it would be possible to present
the matter to its government for
proper action. The treasury com
mission also made a special study of
these chambers of commerce in
France, Austrfa-Hungary and Great
Britain, to determine just WHAT
would be the competency of the evil
dence that was presented in case of
disputed values.
With a view to greater expedition
and hence less distur bance in bust
ness conditions incident to the en-
forcement of the pure food law, the
Secretary during the year has ar
ranged to do away in a large meas
ure with the reference of each dis
puted case to Washington and has
left to the chief local representative
of the Treasury Department and the
Department of Agriculture at the
larger ports the disposition Of all
cases except those Of exceptional i'm
portance.
The advantage of reducing to n
minimum the transfer of gold be-
tween the financial centers OF the
world. the Secretary says. has been
often discussed. but has not yet been
the subject of official action. Econ
omy in such transfers as come about
automatically from time to time by
the extension of the system of bills
of exchange and by the use of inter
national credits, but distrust of these

Fearful politicians. both in England
and in Germany, have looked for a con

German papers have told the German
people that this Brazilian order was

when war would be rushed on the Faith
