RECENT TREASURY DECISIONS 

 UNDER THE TARIFF LAWS. 



In the matter of the protest of Max 

 Herman & Co., New York, against the 

 assessment of duty on dyed sea moss 

 for decorating purposes, it is held that 

 this article is subject to duty at 10 

 per cent, ad valorem. 



In the protest of Reed & Keller, a 

 former decision relative to dyed palm 

 leaves has been followed, placing the 

 duty on these goods at 50 per cent, ad 

 valorem. 



Protest having been made against 

 the classification of "waterproof crepe I 

 paper" for florists' use, as "crepe ', 

 paper," on the ground that it is an 

 article which was not introduced into 

 commerce until after the passage of 

 the tariff law, the protest has been 

 overruled after an exhaustive hearing, 

 and the assessment on crepe paper at 

 5 cents per pound and 15 per cent, ad 

 valorem by the collector has been af- 

 firmed.
