TIRED OF RECIPROCITY.

Sam Shrewd Trader.
HAVANA, March 1.-THE reciprocity
treaty with the United States is not in
favor with the government officials Re
ceipts at the custom house show large
falling off as compared with last year. and
the government is constantly occupied de-
vising ways to increase the revenues
Many anticipate the adoption of new
tariff in the near future, and possibly the
suppression of the present reciprocity
treaty with the United States. This
treaty is not deserving to be called one of
reciprocity.
Think 1t Is a JuG-HandIed scheme.
Cuba receives large quantities of pota-
toes, onions, etc, from the United States
fee of duty, while the United States i'm
poses duty on the same articles, products
of this island, of 40 cents per barrel of po-
tatoes and 81 cents ?er crate of fifty pounds
of onions. The parties making this So
called reciprocity treaty did not consider
the bearings of so one-sided an affair, and
it will not be at all strange if the whole
thing is broken up.
Strong Feeling Against the Treaty.
Some Ia, 900 or 100000 barrels of pota-
toes are imported every year from the
United States and the British provinces,
and these pay no duty. In the spring and
about the beginning of March new pota-
toes or onions are shipped to the United
States, paying duties as above. The in
justice of this, together with the disas-
trous results to the millers in Spain from
the reduction of the former duty on Amer
lean flour of S. per bag of 203 pounds .
81, since Jan. l, 1892. has caused immense
feeling against the treaty.
Prices for Sugar Arc Low.
The sugar trust in the north is "bearing"
the sugar market, and business is suspend
ed. This is most discouraging to the
planters, who are contending with heavy
storms, fires, lack of field hands, and the
breaking of machinery. Altogether the
outlook for Cuba is very bad for the year
1892 the foregoing is what is said by the
Cuban officiais

OTTAWA, Ont, Mar ch 1.-THE act to re-
new the modus VIXEN Ii for the benefit of
United States fishermen has caused an an
lmated discussion in the house of COM
mons. ID. Mills Boutwell,, Liberal, asked
the house to look at the Americans deal
ing with Canada in the Beliring sea mat
ter. There was a sea 4 600 miles in extent.
but no question was raised till Russia set
up some new pretensions, which the United
States claimed to have purchased. These
pretensions were being pushed and, con-
trary to ancient usage, Canadian rights
were being ignored.
Landiocked Bays A.e Different
On the east coast there was a number of
landlocked bays, but if these were more
than six miles from shore to shore the
United States demanded the right Of fish
ing in their waters between the three-mile
limits. The government was making
great concessions, but would the United
States make corresponding concessions as
regarded Behring sea- Sir John Thomp-
son deprecated the tone of the discussion
and reminded the house that very import
ant questions are now being discussed be-
tween the two countries with the view Of
settlement.

WASHINGTON, March 17-Yesterday in
the house was Democratic day so far as
speeches in the debate were concerned.
Sayers of Texas and Bryan of Nebraska
doing the talking. Sayers opened the bat
tie with a statement relative to govern
ment expenditures, for the years ended
June 80, 1888, to 1891, inclusive texcept
's5, Sc and 'S9), minus the sinking fund
and the cost of the purchase of bonds ex-
sept for premium. He said:
THE years 1883 and 1884 were during
Arthurs administration, the years lS& and
1883 during Cieveland's administration, and
the years 1890 and 1891 during the present ad-
ministration. The years 1885 and 1899 do not
appear, because each of them constitutes a
part of two administrations; nor does the year
1856 appear, for the reason that there were less
expenditures in that year than during either
of the years 1885, and 1885. Expenditures for

were Sl2l sol; during 1887 and 1888, Sl55.-

expenditures as given for the years named the
expenditures for navy increase, direct tax. CEN
s1s, Pacific railway bonds and sinking fund,
all expenses traceable to the war of the rebell-
ion and all other unusual and extraordinary
expenditures, the balances are as follows: 1885

Figures Out the ENcesses.
From this it will be seen that the expendi-
lures of 1888 and 1884 exceeded those of lSS1
and 1855 by Sl5,1759j9, and the expenditures
for 1880 and 1891 exceeded those of 1887 alsi
1855 by S40,s9O,4i4. The speaker referred to
the purchase of bonds, advance of interest and
other financial acts during 1891 as bad policy,
resulting in the government being compelled
to appeal to the holders of these bonds to con-
tinue them to the extent Of S25, ,964, 500 If this
had been done by British ministry it would
have been hurled from power in disgrace with

BRYAN TAKES up THE cU0GELs.
He Brings the Debate Back to its OriSi-

He Brings the Debate Back to its OriSi-
nal Subject.
Bryansef Nebraska then spoke and FOR
the first time since the beginning of the
debate the speaker confined himself to the
subject of the debate--free wool. He said
that the increased price paid by the man
ufacturer to the farmer on wool the form
er took out of the consumer, resulting in
the consumers having to pay for wooden
goods nearly 50 per cent. more than the
sheep raiserS received for their product
He quoted Clay in 1910, Blaine in 1888
and certain manufacturers later to the
effect that the di ference in wages paid
here and in foreign countries by manufact-
uiers of wool was more than offset by the
greater efficiency ofour operatives.
The Nub of the Free Wool Argument.
But-said Bryan--the gentlemen have assured
that protective tariffreduces the price of the
article protected. 1t is strange that they did
not believe that about the wool tariff. They
tell the farmer that the tariff increases the
price of his wool and yet they expect US to be-
lieve that q tariff upon manufactures reduces
prices We have the interesting spectacle of n
manufacturer begging for high tariff in order
To make his goods cheaper. And why does he
want to make his goods cheaper? He tells 5
that it Is in order that he may pay higher
wages 10 his laboring men and then we are
left To wonder if. the tariff has been imposed
upon agricultural products for the purpose of
cheapening tLn.n.
Closes with a Colloquy.
In closing his speech Bryan declared
the Democratic policy to be the best for
both employer and employe And as he
closed he was questioned by Raines of
New York, who asked him to name one
article manufactured in the United States
in competition with foreign manufac-
lures the price of which has been increased
by the Mckinley bill, or which was not
cheaper now than it had been in 1880
Bryan-Is tin plate manufactured in
this country? Laughter.
Raines replied that there were said to be
twenty tin-plate manufactures in
this country, but no trade list was large
enough TO contain list of the tin plate
liars in this country.
Bryan retorted: Il do not want an auto
