RE: Cross-country ski gloves

Dear Mr. Weiss,

     This letter is in response to your inquiry of December 9,
1989, regarding tariff classification of J.T. Racing/Yoko Ski
Gloves.

     After receipt of your inquiry, we became aware that a
request for Internal Advice, initiated by you, and dated prior to
your classification ruling request, was pending before this
office.   The merchandise at issue in both the ruling request and
the request for Internal Advice is identical. Internal Advice
requests, according to Customs regulations, address merchandise
currently the subject of an ongoing transaction.  As a rule, this
office does not address classification ruling requests while
Internal Advice requests are pending for ongoing transactions
involving identical merchandise.

     Therefore, we are notifying you that both the Tariff
Schedule of the United States Annotated (TSUSA) as well as
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States Annotated
(HTSUSA) classifications will be addressed in our response to the
Internal Advice pending before this office.  For your reference,
our response will be cited as Headquarters Ruling Letter (HRL)
083294.  Any questions regarding our classification should be
addressed at that time.

                                   Sincerely,



                                   John A. Durant
                                   Director
