u &sarSGT1S, Oct. l6.-In regard 10
newspaper dispatches from London as
serting that Spain cannot negotiate d
reciprocity treaty with the United
States for the Cnban trade without vio-
iatng tho favored na.iou clause in
her existing treaties with other nations,
II Is said Gt the department Of state that
This polng was discussed and finally de-

the commercial Interests Of Great Brit
aln for au obvious purpose.
United states Has the same Clause.
The state department officials say that
the United States also has the favored
natlga clause" in most Of her CONNER
oial treaties, but this win not embarrass
the government in the negotiation OF
reciprocity treaties or ARRANGEMENTS
with other nations, because the
department Of state has uniformly
held, from the time of Mr.
JeheIson as secretary OF state to that Of
nr. Blaine that tho favored clause only
applies where privileges are granted
freely and without q consideration. but
wherever special consideration IL
made the condition If favor granted
or received the favored nation clause
does not apply.
Sustained by the Supreme Court.
This Interpretation has beeh recently
.asiatatned by the supreme court Of the

arose under the Hawaiian reciprocity
rrETTy. IT WIS claimed that sugar and
molasses imported from the island of
~. Crolx, q colony of Denmark. should
be admitted free of duty under the
favored nation clause of a treaty be-
tween the United States and Denmark
because like articles were admitted from
the Hawaiian islands. The supreme
court rejected the claim, stating that
the treaty with Denmark does not bind
the United States to extend TO that conn
try. without compensation, privileges
which they have conceded 10 the
Hawaiian island in exchange for valua-
ble concessions.
