Reciprocity Scores for America Aeains,
the World.

Tho British Trade Journal. OF July 1. utters n
most plaintiye aud distressing wall over the
evil effects OF our reciprocity policy on British
commerce. Itssys:
British merchants and manufacturers are
asking themselves whether something could
not have been done to prevent the conclusion
OF the Spanish West Indian treaty between
Spain and the United States In Its present DIFF.
fortential form. It IL one result OF the failure
Of British negotiations at Madrid for . renewal
OF the treaty with Spain. which expired ysstss-
day. To-day, therefore, July 1. the new and
enormously increased duties come into force
In the peninsula, and the United States step
into the Cuban and Porto Rico market, while
British goods are shut out"
This Is the same reciprocity policy, let II
not 30 forgotten. OF which the Free Trade
party, always in tho van whom it comes to
sneering at American progress or belittling
American policies. dismissss all consideration
in it, platform. after contemptuously refer
ring to it 10 q ''humbug." 1t 10 also the same
reciprocity OF which the World, leading Free
Trade organ. says that il lie q scheme to Jun
tax foreigners only" Untax foreigners only?
One would indeed scarcely think 80 from the
above editorial. But it IL true We had forgot
ten that the un-American World, whose bro.
prietor directs It's policy from his splendid
home In London, probably refers to Americans
~ foreigners, and his d definition OF reciprocity
as a scheme to "untax foreigners only
should. therefore, be accepted u q compll-
ment rather than . rsproach. There cannot
be any doubt. however. that John Bull think.
reciprocity a "humbug." A. usual, hs il
heart and soul at once With the Democratic
party.

Total production for the year.. Is, $40, 10
Besides the foregoing it should be stated.
further, that the production OF American shee,
lton or steel. made into articles and wares,
timed or terne-coated during the year, nj
shown by the sworn statements OF man
'facturers received to date, was 4,s2s. 22s
pounds.
As these manufactures constitute tin and
terne plates within the meaning OF the law,
il now seems probable that when full returns
OF the same are received the total production
for lie year, inclusive OF such manufactures
will not tall much short OF %, 900, 900 pounds.
or the production OF tin and terne plates
during the past fiscal year, a little more than
30 Per cent. was Of the lighter c,ass Of plates
named in the law, which alone are subject TO
with the same class Of plates i'm
ported. II practically the same ratio OF weigh,
between the lighter and the heavier class oil
plates should be maintained during the present
fiscal year, AZ presumably 1t will be, there
would result upon the foregoing estimate a
production Of 90,O00.OoO pounds, weighing
lighter than 63 pounds pr 100 square feet, or
an excess OF 6.0Oo.0 900 pounds over the required
amount. These figures have reference to tin
and terne plates only. I may here state that
the rapid growth OF the industry since the
date Of my former report fully ~jus,iies the
prediction therein contained, that by the
close Of tho present fiscal year the production
viii be ct the annual rate Of 200, 600, 900
pounds.
