handle is hein.journals/bulpnamu28 and id is 188 raw text is: no CUBA NEW WHARF AT HAVANA. The Government of Cuba has authorized the Krajewski-Pesant Company to build a wharf 21.8 meters long by 10 meters wide in the port of Havana for the private use of the aforesaid company. The work must conform to the general plan of wharves approved for the construction of wharves in the port of Havana, and must not cause detriment to any public service or private interest. No time limit is specified in the concession for the completion of the work of construc- tion. As a guarantee for the faithful compliance of the conditions under which the concession was granted, the company agrees to deposit in the treasury of the Zona Fiscal of the Province of Havana a sum equal to 1 per cent of the amount of the estimated cost of the works, which deposit is to be returned to the company when one-third of the work is completed. The plans for the construction must be approved by the chief engineer of the Havana Harbor Works, and the wharf when completed must be inspected by him, and if built in accordance with the law a written statement will be issued to that effect. CUSTOMS MODIFICATIONS. The customs tariff of the Republic of Cuba relating to the surtax leviable on tissues (cotton, hemp, flax, agave, jute, and other vege- table fibers), broch4 or woven like brocades, has been amended to read as follows: RULE 10.-Brochd or woven like brocades. Tissue, broch6 or woven like brocades with threads of any of the textile materials comprised in Classes IV, V, VI, and VII of the tariff, shall be liable to the duties leviable thereon plus the surtaxes established in every case. (Classes IV and V, Group 2, Note II, Clause A.) By broch6 or brocaded tissues are meant all tissues ornamented or having designs applied by means of the small shuttle called espolin, or any similar process, In such manner that the threads do not occupy the entire width of the stuff, but only the space comprising the flower or pattern. The threads serving to form the broch6 or brocaded design or ornaments shall not be considered by the appraisers In determining the number of threads in the tissue, nor shall such threads, whenever bleached or dyed, be subjected to the surtaxes established for bleaching or dyeing. Class IV, Group 2, Note II, Clause A. Tissues, broch6 or woven like brocades, referred to in Rule 10, Disposition 1st, shall be liable to the duties leviable thereon plus the surtax of 35 per cent upon the corresponding duties. 128
