Tariff on Works OF Art.

The President yesterday transmitted to the
house report from the secretary of state in
response to resolution asking for informa-
ton in regard to representations made to this
government in relation to existing tariff dis
ordinations againts the works of foreign
artists. Several communications from diplo-
matte officers Of France and Italy are trans
mitted, and also a communication from Min
lister Morton to the secretary of state, in
which he says that the increased duty on for.
eign works of art, which naturally bears
more heavily on French artists than on any
others, created such feeling that for time
measures of retaliation were contemplated.
He did not mean that the French government
had any intention of the kind. but that
French artists contemplated such action
The management of everything relating to
art ia to great extent in their hands, and
they could of course adopt measures very
damaging to American students in France
He submitted to the department of state
whether it would not be proper to suggest q
liberal modification of the clause of the tariff
bearing on works of art. Such modification
would certainly be received with feelings O.
intense satisfaction by artistic circles il
