  • groundedness 1.00 pass — The claim is directly supported by the passage. The quote provided exactly matches the language in the passage regarding the tariff on sugars not above 7 D.S. under the March 3, 1875 Tariff act, stating '1¾c per pound plus 25 per cent equals 2.19c per pound.'
  • qualifier_fidelity 0.90 pass — All qualifiers are faithful to the passage. The viewpoint is correctly identified as 'author' (passage states facts without attribution to a named source). The stance 'asserts' and sentiment 'neutral' match the passage's presentation. The time qualifier correctly specifies March 3, 1875 with appropriate ISO date formatting. The context appropriately identifies the specific tariff act. The quote is verbatim from the passage and supports the claim about the duty rate. Minor note: the object states '1.75c per pound plus 25 per cent' while the passage shows '1¾c per pound plus 25 per cent' - these are equivalent (1¾ = 1.75), so this is a faithful decimal representation rather than an error.
