Book Description
Excerpt from Immigration Laws and Regulations: August, 1903 Rule 1. Collectors of customs shall collect, as provided in section 1 of the act approved March 3, 1903, a duty of $2 for each and every passenger, not a citizen of the United States, or of Canada, or of Cuba, or of Mexico, who shall come by steam or sail vessel from any foreign port to any port within the United States; but no duty shall be paid for such passengers proceeding in continuous transit through the United States to foreign territory, nor for those who have once been admitted to the United States and have paid the head tax who shall later go in transit from one part of the United States to another through foreign contiguous territory. Rule 2. Under the authority contained in the proviso to section 1 of the act approved March 3, 1903, the duty of $2 levied upon railways or other transportation agencies for passengers brought by them overland from foreign contiguous territory shall be collected, until otherwise provided, in accordance with the terms of an agreement between the Commissioner-General of Immigration and certain transportation companies of the Dominion of Canada, of date November 1, 1901. Rule 3. All such moneys so collected, as well as all moneys collected for rentals of exclusive privileges at United States immigrant stations, shall be deposited to the credit of the Treasurer of the United States on account of "immigrant fund," with an assistant treasurer of the United States, or national-bank depositary, in the same manner as other miscellaneous collections are reported.
