ineton special says: The full text Of ihe
spanish,Amerieau treaty having been made
public, there Is much talk and comment in
Congressional circles regarding It's prob
shie efecs. II ratified One Of the first poiats
made Is that the treaty ctuiiot be considered
without bringing forward general and
full DISCUSSION Of the whole tariff question
This docs not seem TO meet with much favor
among the Republicans or Democrats. It Is
felt that the treaty would have stood bet
ter chance OF being ratified had 1t not beeiI
made public. II is thought ai the Depart
ment that bad faith has been observed and
that the Spanish aovernme1t could or
would no. have been guilty Of such discour
tesy as this. II Is very evident that there 10
going % be very bitter opposition 10 the
treaty on the part Of the sugar aud tobacco
