PREFACE,

Again we present an edition of Tariff Schedules, this time under the Act of 1897, and we have endeavored to give the most complete list of commercial articles by trade names ever published, and, while no pains have been spared to secure accuracy in the table of rates, errors of judgment may have occurred and ions which may be reached by the Customs Authorities.

As our schedules are largely based upon decisions of the Courts, the General Appraisers and the Treasury Department, we cannot believe that any material changes will occur.

We refer each article to the paragraph of the law under which we have classified it for duty, so that those who wish may draw their own conclusions.

We also give a full list of articles on which rates of drawback have been fixed by the Secretary of the Treasury as provided by law.

We believe this work (while very compact) the most reliable authority on the matters contained therein ever presented to the public.

F. B. VANDEGRIFT & CO.

(Note. Accuracy and precision in customs proceedings are so essential to the interests of importers that the services of a competent broker are usually worth vastly more than the small cost of such services.)
