The collection of the revenues has been performed at a less relative cost and the percentage of loss has been reduced to an insignificant amount. The frauds upon the revenue by undervaluation of importations have been a subject of careful attention. and so far as human watchfulness and skill can provide they have been suppressed. The laws regarding immigration and the importation of contract labor have been enforced with vigor and thoroughness. The enforcement of the law at New York. the principal port. has been placed entirely under Federal supervision. The laws have been faulty in some of their provisions. and for this reason the bureau has been hampered in its operations.
