Reciprocity Favored by the pan-Ameriean
Conference.

Reciprocity Favored by the American
Conference.
wAsaNoTua. April NJ
The international American conference
has adopted tho report of the committee
on customs unions, With recommends
that reciprocity treaties be negotiated be-
tween the several republics OF the Amefi-
can hemisphere, earn making tariff con-
cesslons, 80 that the peculiar products of
them all may be introduced free
Into the others. This report is Ia the
same line of the amendment sng-
eested by MIR. Blaine TO the committee
ON ways and means OF the house. The
conference also adopted the report of this
committee ON port dues. The committee
recommended that all port dnes be merged
in n single one. TO be known as tonnage
llaes: that this be assessed npon the gross
tonnage: that each government fix the rate
Of tonnage dues with due regard 10 the
policy Of the conference. which in to facili-
tate and favor navigation; that dues under
unsxpired contracts with private compan
les be excepted from the provisions OF ar
ticle aud that vessels of less than
twenty 1--WE tons transports and vessels of
war to be exempt from tonnage dues.
The report or the committee on banking
was discnsssd at length, The eommittea
believes that commerce could be extended
greatly hy facilitating slirest exchanges be-
tween the money markets of the countries
represented Ia the conference. The mer-
chants OF the United States now inn
porting goods from South and Central
America make these importations almost
without exception through the use OF En-
elish banking credits. The committee
does nos think the governments
themselves should afford fnaLclal
facilities. The best means of remedy
ing the existing difficulty, The COM
mittee thinks, is by the passage by the
United States OF Law Incorporated an In
tsrnational American bank with ample
capital and privilege on the part OF the
citizens of the several countries in the
conference TO take shares la the bank pro
rata 10 their foreign commerce. This
bank should have oil the powers now en-
joyed by national banks of the United
States except power 10 emit circulating
notes. The conference did not conclude
consideration OF this subject before adj
tournament.

the change from grain to fruit cultivation.
The prnne crop promises 10 be the best

the increased number Of orchards coming

public attention in st. Psul's lookup. IN
well known in Boston, his native town.
His real name is Thomas l.. Safe, and out
aide of his excellent family connections,
his many swindiing schemes have made him
famous, both in Boston and New York,
which has been his chief camping ground.
Safes parents for years resided In Boston.
His father was a typical Yankee, whose
adventurous spirit when yonng led him 10
foreign climee, and he amassed large
fortune IN shipping. Among his various
enterprises was sugar raising In San
Domingo, where he possessed large ss-
tates. While cuitiyating these he met .
beautiful spanish girl of pure Caslilian
blood, and married her after most ro-
mantle series of adventures necessary to

Lis Spanish address and appearance. He

1 handsome fellow. He inherited from his
/ father considerable means. but quickly
Il went through il. He was then thrown ON
his own resources, for his dead parent
knowing his failing had left most OF his
fortune to his eldest son. Thomas fell In
love shortly after his fathers death with a
Boston girl, not his equal socially and the
family never recognized her. This wife hs
took to New York and has had titsse
children by her Finally his elder brother,
who was in San Domingo In the sugar
business, sent for Safe aud offered him IN
interest in the business, which VISA &C
cepted gladly, for IL gave him chance tc
get away from his wife, whom be was sir'

IA was while with bis brother and rua'
