Pork Packing and Provisions.

The Cincinnati Price Current says:
Weather conditions have been favorable
the past week and packing operations
have enlarged. Points from which we
have returns, embracing nearly all the
packing, have handled total of $50 900
hogs tor the week compared with 4G5, 600
the preceding week, and 4l0 GOO last
year. The places represent an aggregate
of 2, l65 900 hogs since November l,
against 600, 900 last year. With the
increased marketing there is shown some
improvement. IN quality, there being q
larger proportion OF well-fed stock. The
general average weight, however, is still
decidedly below last year, owing to more
than ordinary shipping of stock younger
than usually sent forward. Prices of
hogs have ruled easier, losing the pre-
vious week. advance, and now average
about So 1908 45 per 100 pounds for
prominent markets.
The demand for product is now good,
and the distribution very liberal. The
large stocks shown to be at Chicago have
tended to weaken values. The gain for
the month was largely in barreled pork,
and to q considerable extent in ham and
shoulders, while sides indicated no essen
tial change. The aggregate pounds of
product shows about twice the quantity
held a year ago at Chicago, or an III
crease of nearly 80 900, 900 pounds.
The export clearances of hog product
for the week were particularly large,
being SO per cent increase in com parison
with corresponding period last year.
The increase was well divided between
meats ana lard.
Values of hog product at Chicago have
had declining tendency since early in
the week, aud at the close are 90 cents
per 100 pounds on short rib sides 22l2
cents on lard and So cents per barrel on
pork below week ago.

SwEETwATER, Ten, Dec. 5.-The at
IGNITION OF your correspondent here has
been called 10 specials, appearing stimuli
teneously in THE GAZETTE and Dallas
News, from Colorado City claiming that
immense wheat farm OF 10 900 acres so
glowinglv depicted, was q Mitchell
county enterprise, and that il gas To-
Gated ut Vista, q station near Colorado;
when the facts are that Vista, where the
big farm is to be opened, Is seven miles
west of Sweetwater, and is in Nolan
county, as is also nearly all that mag
nificent vein of black waxy soil, stetch-
ing from five miles west of Sweetwater
TO ten miles further west to the Nolan
county line, that the Colorado corre-
spopdeut talks so sloQuently about.
Abilene and Colorado have long claimed
Nolan county IS :Abilene country
and ''COlorado country,' using our
products Us part of their exhibits, etc..
all of which we have good naturedly
submitted TO ill that they seem to think
we are common property between them.
But we have to draw the line some here,
and this claim OF the Colorado man
that Vista and the big I0,SS0
acre farm is len miles east OF Colorado
and in Mitchell county is little too
much, when in fact it is twenty-one
miles from Colorado and only seven
miles from this place, aud is eN clusively
Nolan county matter.
This will be the biggest wheat farm in
Texas or in the South, or rather seven
teen wheat farms under one manage
ment. The projectors are Col. Townly,
o: Dakota. William Cameron, OF Waco,
and prominent Fort Worth parties, and
many other business men in West Texas
have stock in the enterprise. 1t is

THE ALIEN LABOR LAW.

Cases Arise in Which the Enforcement Of
the strict Letter of the Law would
seem to br Straining the Point Too
Fine
WASHINGToN, Oct ID. The Treasury
Department finds it very difficult to en-
force the law in regard to the importa-
tion Of alien laborers into the United
States. A few days ago the department.
was informed that the Canadian Paciac
railroad had imported number OF la
borers into this country from Canada to
repair its road-bed, which for a distance
of six miles runs through the State OF
Ncrmont--cntering at Richtield.
Before the Treasury Department could
act the laborers, who are employed on
the Canadian Pacific road, had COM
pleted their work and returned to Can
ada.
A similar case along the line of the
same road arose short time since,
where a valuable man employed by the
road and who lived in the United States
died. His place was filled by Cana
dian, an old railroader, familiar with
the duties of the position. In this in
stance, however, the charge was made
that he came to this country under con-
tract and the Canadian Pacific road
management filled his place with an
American, as his duties required him
to 1.-Two in the United States.
In the matter of the laborers, the
Treasury Department did not prosecute,
thinking it would be straining the law
in technical sense to do so.

RECIPROCITY.

An Amount of Trade that Might lie Built
Up, Under Favorable Conditions, Be
tween the United States ana Our Mexi-
can Ncighbor-A Good Market for Our
surplus Products.
WASuINGTON, Oct. -. Secretary
Blaine has received letter from
Carlos Crist of the Agricultural Com
pany of Mexico, stating that the treaty
Of reciprocity between the United
States and the Sandwich Islands has
built up trade which last year
amounted to SIG, lS0,00 Mr.. Crist
says that he does not know why a
reciprocity treaty such as that negoti-
ated for Mexico and the United States
by Messrs. Romero and Grant would not
produce equal, or even greater results,
and if so, the trade between
Mexico and the United States If in
creased in the same proportion as that
of the Sandwich Islands, might in short
time amount to two thousand millions Of
dollars year The Mexcans, he says,
now purchase every species Of commod-
ity prod uced in the United States.
They can not purchase in large quanti-
ties, because they have no means OF
paying. Mr.. Crist states that he has
documents which would amply prove
that all the North American products
find a good market in Mexico.

1T is NO BAR.

The "Most Favored Nation" Clause in
Existing Treaties OF Commerce No Bar
to the Negotiation of Treaty of Re-
ciprocity with Spain, According to tho
Position Held by the Supreme Court.
WAsHISGToN, Oct. 15.--In regard to
newspaper dispatches from London as
serting that Spain can not negotiate a
, reciprocity treaty with the United
.:ates for the Cuban trade without viO-
lating the favored nation" clause in
her existing treaties with other nations,
it is said at the Department of State
that this point was discussed and finally
decided in 1884 when Minister Foster
negotiated a reciprocity treaty on tie
same basis that is now proposed, and is
now revived, not by Spain, it is stated,
but by the commercial interests Of
Great Britain, for an obvious purpose.
The State Department officials say
that the Cnited States also mas the
Favored nation" clause in most OF her
commercial treaties, but this will not
/ cmbarrass the Government in the
negotiation of reciprocity treaties or ar
rangements with other nations, be-
cause the Department of State has uni
I
ferson as Secretary of State to Mr..
Blaine, that the favored nation
clause only applies where privileges
are granted freely and without con-
sideraton; but wherever a special con.
sidcration is made the condition of
favor granted or received the favored
nation clause does not apply.
This Interpretation has been recently
sustained by the Supreme Court of tho
United States in its opinion in the case
of Bartram VS.. Robertson. This case
arose under the Hawaiian Reciprocity
treaty. 1t was claimed that sugar and
molasscs imported from the Island OF
St Crox, a colony of Denmark, should
be admitted free of duty under the fav-
ored nation clause of treaty between
/ the United States and Denmark, be-
cause like articles were admitted from
the Hawaiian Islands The Supreme
Court rejected the claim, stating that
tho treaty with Denmark does not
bind the United States to extend to that
country, without compensation, prlvi-
leges which they have conceded to the
Hawaiian Islands in exchange for valu-
able concessions"

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-The Navy De-
partment has awarded the contract for
building coast-line battle-ship No. to
the Union Iron-works of San Francisco,
at So, 223, 333. Work on the new cruiser
will begin at once. The vessel which
will be of the first rate, will probably
be named the California, following in
the line OF the bill recently passed by
Congress which prescribes that vessels
of the first rate be named after States;
second rate after cities; third rate after
rivers and fourth rate after battles.
