HAVANA. Aug. 15.-Nearly all the
business establishments in this city have
closed their doors in consequence OF the
refusal of the minister of the colonies to
suspend the new tariffs. The merchants
and others sent telegram to the minis
ter at Madrid a few days ago asking
him to suspend the tariffs.

consider the subject. a majority of those
present announced that they were ready

the minister of colonies, but the govern

anything of the kind being done.
The extent to which business has been
suspended here in protest against the
continued imposition Of the prevalent
tariffs is shown by the fact that not a

copper coin. Captain SimOnds' weather
