Agricultural Fair, which commences on the 10TH
The President said that Congress meets about the

without Foundation.
The statement that Secretary Boutwell, had sent
an agent to Europe to inquire into the feasibility of
negotiating a four per cent loan with capitalists
there is without foundation. In fact no such step
is contemplated. The Secretary has various offers
from large European capitalists proposing to take
the whole any part OF public debt at reduced
rate OF interest, but none of them have been acted
on as yet, nor will they be considered until action is
had by Congress.

How the Crew Conduct Themselves.
| Wilmington papers Of yesterday, just received

in which the officers and Of the Cuba conducted

Judge Kelley Opposes Reciprocity will
Judge Kelley of your city, did not succeed IL
seeing the President last night, but this morning h
was at the White House early and had an interview
OF over an hour His business was to oppose the ne
gotation OF reciprocity treaty with the Dominion
of Canada, and to present some facts about tn
tariff. He laid before the President formidable
and well-arranged mass of figures taken from th
books of thel Treasury Department, going to shop
that since the expiration of the treaty with Canad
we have been gamers to the extent of millions o
dollars in the shape of revenue and that our eXpor
trade had increased with the provinclas instead o
diminished.
The Presideat, in conversation with Judge Kelley
showed that he had been studying the subject, an(
was to some extent posted upon its details. HI
spoke particularly against aboshng the tariff on bi
luminous coal, and said such step would take from
| 1.-THE reasury large amount annually. These fact
he has doubt learned during his tour through tn
coal regions of Pennsylvania Altogether the Presi
dent does not appear to be in favor Of revising tn
Reciprocity Treaty. He requested Judge Kelley t.
leave with him facts and figures which he had col
| lected, so that he might examine them NOR
thoroughly. 1t looks as if Kelley had, to use hi
| own words, "knocked Reciprocity in the head
The Tariff Question.
| With regard to the tariff Mr.. Kelley explained Il
the President that the best plan would be to put al
articles OF raw material which we do not produce OF
| the free list, and to reduce the tarn article
| manufactured from raw material which does no
| come in competition with our own production
while it should be advanced on all articles importe
! which can he produced and manufactured in thi
country. With these ideas the President expressed
concurrence, and he thought snch plan wou
| simplify the tariff and aflord kind OF protection
needed to foster and encourage home industry.
Judge Kelley Departs.
Judge Kelley left at noon to-day for Philadelphia
