Fees for weighing, gauging, or measuring imports will be charged in all cases where the invoice or entry shall not contain the weight, quantity, or measure of the merchandise weighed, gauged, or measured; and whenever the weighing, gauging, or measuring shall disclose a difference between the actual weight or quantity and that specified in the invoice or entry, affording a well-grounded presumption of fraud, the collector will advise with the District Attorney of the United States in regard to the case, and will be governed by his opinion as to the propriety of instituting legal proceedings for enforcing the penalty provided by law.

Invoices must be certified and sealed by the collector as soon as received, for which service he should collect a fee of 20 cents in the case of any original invoice presented by the importer or consignee; but no fees should be charged for a certificate to a duplicate invoice, manifest, or other paper forwarded to the collector as a verification of the original document. Masters of passenger vessels from foreign territory not contiguous to the United States are required to pay, within 24 hours from entry, to the collector of customs at the port of arrival, ten ($10) dollars for each passenger over eight years of age (not being a cabin passenger) who shall have died of natural disease during the voyage. Collectors, naval officers, and surveyors are required to have posted in a public place in their offices a fair table of the fees demandable by law at their ports, subject at all times to inspection, and to give receipts for fees collected, specifying the particulars, whenever required to do so. Failure to observe these requirements entails a penalty of one hundred ($100) dollars, for the benefit of the informer. Fees will not be charged on the northern frontiers for permits to unlade cargo brought from an American port; but permits must be obtained, and existing laws complied with, previous to the discharge or landing of passengers, baggage, goods, wares, or merchandise brought from foreign ports or places.
