But many of the export rates for certain articles are lower than the import rates; for instance, the rate for Cereals from Paris to Dieppe for export is frs. 7·50, while the import rate from Dieppe to Paris is frs. 9. In addition to special rates for export and import goods there are also special tariffs for _transit_ goods subject to special conditions which appear anomalous, and have given rise to complaints. The following is an illustration:--Both Roubaix and Rouen are spinning centres, and Epinal is a weaving centre. The rate for a 5-ton load of Yarn from Kilometres. fr. cts. Roubaix to Epinal 462 is 47·60. Rouen to ” 537 ” 57·40. Antwerp to ” 467 ” 37·0.
