rhe Sugar BouutIes Conference.

The International Conference which
has been sitting in London has adjourned
till April 9TH,
The' convention drawn up proposes
that absolute guarantees shall be given
that in future no bounties, open or con-
cealed, shall be granted for the export of
sugar; but it is proposed to substitute
instead, a system of duties on the guam
tity of sugar produced, and destined for
home consumption. The duty on sugar
in Belgium has been reduced to % francs
per ton. The representatives of the
several Powers at the Conference accept
the Belgian system of taxation on sugar,
with the reservation that colonies under
responsible or representative govern
ment shall be exempt from the decisions
arrived at until their adhesion thereto
has been notified to the Powers.
By the convention the signatory
Powers undertake to levy equal duties
on all sugars, aud the amount of the
drawback will not be allowed to exceed
the duties.
The British delegates have agreed to
the appointment of a committee in con-
nectiou with the West India sugar in
dustry.
The delegates have signed the protocol
which has been drawn up, embodying
an agreement upon the technical ques
tons discussed at the sittings of the con-
ference. The majority of the delegates,
however, made certain reservations.
