TIE latest adviees confirm pre-
vious reports that Cuba strongly
favors reciprocity with the United
states. This is clearly shown by
the strong address and resolutions
sent by the Havana Chamber of
Commerce to the Spanish Minister
Of the Colonies. advocating the
prompt adoption Of reciprocity
treaty with the United States.
After a review of the Spanish
Cuban laws, in which certain
changes are demanded, the address
declares 1t 10 be the unanimous
opinion of the Cuban commercial
bodies that all the markets Of
Europe are closed TO Cuba's prinei-
pal neutrality-suspicious. Euro
pesn countries are also sugar pro-
ducers. and that the greatest
market for Cuban goods is the
nation whose ports lie at her very
door, viz, the United States The
United States, the address con-
tinues, are the regulators of the

FAST STEAMSHIP me.

Mr.. Bryce Douglas, managing
director of the Naval Construction
and Armaments Company, has re-
turned from America, and reports
that he has secured the subsidy
from the Dominion Government for
q fast Atlantic line, which will re-
quire four large twin screw
steamers, whose speed will not be
less than twenty knots. The
scheme also embraces q line of fast
steamers between Vancouver and
the Australian colonies, touching at
the Sandwich and the FIJI islands,
for which separate subsidy has
been voted by the Canadian Parlia-
ment, and negotiations are now
pending with the Australian Gov
eminent for their quota of the sub
sidy, which will. no doubt, be
forthcoming, as the time to Austria
La will be reduced by the Canadian
route by about three days. 1t is
proposed that the steamers shall
land at Brisbane as the nearest
port, and from this point the line
