INCREASE IN REVENUES
UNDER new TARIFF LAW
Customs Receipts Thirty Millions
Higher With Cut in Ad
Valorem Rate.

Increased revenues to the amount Of
thirty million dollars as compared with
the last year under the Dingley law, with
a hundred million dollars increase in the
value of imports and a. lower average ad

great groups Of imports. including lum-
Der, sugar. fruits. liquors. chemicals. silk
manufactures, cotton manufactures. iron
and steel. tobacco, wool and manufac-
lures and fbers and manufactures, which
aggregate about two-thirds the total duti-
able imports Of the United States.
1t shows that more than 800 OO0, OO0
worth Of goods were imported in 1910
under the new law in excess Of the total
imports OF 1909, under the Dingley law;
that the revenues for 1910 exceeded those
OF 1909 by about $4,000. 600 and that the
average ad valorem rate OF duty paid
was Al 40 per cent, as compared with
4315 per cent under the law which 1t

half million dollars on the catch OF 49,
92O fur seals. which, it Is said. he has
directed on the seal islands during the

Permit me to say that those small
skins which have been taken will not.

port Of the natives. and salaries OF gov
eminent agents, etc, ETC., are all bal
anced against the gross receipts from

All this will be well established and be

CONTROL BY RAILWAYS
OF WATER TERMINALS
important Phase OF Transpor-
tation Discussed in Report of
Corporations Commissioner.

To the adverse attitude OF railway lines
toward independent water trafic, their
exclusive control of frontage. the refusal
or neglect to coordinate with the general
water traffic and the refusal TO pro-rats
generally with water lines In the through
movement OF traffic. the commissioner Of
corporations. Herbert Knox Smith. IN
part III Or his report on water transpor-
tation, Just made public. attributes the
chief bar to water terminal advance In
this country.
After an exhaustive inquiry into the
harbor situation Of the country and analy.
sis of conditions, Commissioner Smith
deals in this section OF tho report with
water terminals. and he finds iive salient
facts regarding them:
Five Salient Facts.
That terminals are as important as
channels; that the harbors OF the coun.
try have not fully developed their ter.
minal frontage; that they are not proper.
ly organized or controlled that railroads
largely control water terminals, often "a
the disadvantage OF general water trafie,
that there is almost no linking up OF the
rail and general water systems ut the
waters edge, but rather the opposite
tendency, and that there is little co-opera-
ton by localities with the federal gov.
eminent which improves their channels.
Relating to railroad cooperation, Com.
missioner Smith says: Until this under.
lying relation of rail to water systems
IL adjusted on some common sense basis
OF harmony. there is little hope Of great
advance I'm water terminal conditions"
Lack of cooperation between localities
and the federal eoyernment IN u,otAr vAp
minal development. he says, is In mark
ed contrast to those continental countries
whose waterways have been most highly
developed.
