destructive conhagration. The site OF
Tokay is on the slopes of the Hegyalia
Mountains. which are of volcanic origin
and are entirely covered with erape-yines
of the particular variety which has made
the name celebrated. Some TWENTY-FIVE
other market towns and villages dotting
this range Of hills share with Tokay in the
profitable industry of producing the ia

TO teach the native growers the art of

PARIS, October 11.-Deputy Larent per-

hitherto avoided doing. The agitation
over the new United States tariff law was
greater than ever during last week. Inc
widest ideas as TO the scope and effect Oh
the law were prevalent. Lyons viru-
lently demonstrated against the heavily
increased duties on silk. Bordeaux was
equally excited about wine. and the whole
of France was in condition of extreme IT.

Elected by the newspapers. Lockroy treats
the idea of European zollyerien against

THE AMERICAN CHINESE WALL.
He holds that France, unassisted py
other countries, can open the gates OF the
American Chinese wall by profting by the
word reciprocity" which figures in the
new law. and urges the approval of the
Foreign Offices negotiations on tho SUD
ject. He Is supposed to refer to the al
legged understanding between NJ. Rlbot'
the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and White
law Reid. the United States Minister, re-
garding certain concessions which France
will make, provided America does not In
crease the taxes on certain French pro-
ducts-notably wines. The details OF the
understanding. if such exists, is not made
public, but the French newspapers post
lively announce that il does exist.
The Mot fOrdre thinks that America
should receive French goods little better
and the Orleanist pretenders who seek to
overturn the French republic little less
pompously. France, it says, considers the
American Orleanist manifesto ridiculous.
