fallen below those Of the correspond

year; and in four OF the six months
the imports Of Manufacturers ma

the corresponding months of last year.
The first month OF the new law did
show on its face lower valuation Of
manufactures imported than In the same
month Of the preceding year. but this
was due to the fact that much of this
class OF merchandise had been imported
and placed in warehouse In the proceed
