FREE IMPORTS
FROM MEXICO.
SHOW INCREASE.


Free imports from Mexico into
the United States during November
this year exceeded those of last year
by more than $128,0O0, according to
the monthly report prepared by
Harvey Shepherd, deputy collector
of United States customs at CAL.
eXico.
The free imports this year totaled
$160,490 while the total for Novem-
ber last year was only $32,346.
Shepherd said the reason for the
increase was removal of the re-
quirement that cotton must be
shipped in bond
Dutiable import totals for Nov
ember, 1886 also took step upward
with $40,442 this year and $37,54O
for November last year. Cotton by
products are included in this classi-
fication.
Exports to Mexico dropped in
November this year in comparison
to figures of last year. The total
this year was $126,651 and for last
year was $149,404. Shepherd said
the market in Mexico was overstock-
ed with farm machinery and that
building had not reached the point
this year where United States ma
terials were required in large
amounts.
