The investigation into the working
Of the several reciprocal trade ar
rangements entered into by the
United States with Central and South
American countries and with Spain
for Cuba and Porto Rico, under the
provisions of the Mckinley act, which
Secretary Gresham instituted imme-
diately upon assuming the duties OF
his office, it is reported, has led to a
determination by President Cleveland
to terminate the arrangements with
Brazil and with Spain for Cuba and
Porto Rico.
Enquiry at the State Department
developes that part of the arrange
ment is not terminated. 1t cannot
be ascertained that it is part of the
policy OF the administration to aban-
don reciprocity. On the contrary,
the result Of inquiries tend to prove,
il any such action has been, or will
be taken with regard to Brazil and
Spain it will be due to special and
local causes. Complaints are said
TO have been received from persons
doing business with Cuba and Porto
Rico that local officials of those is
lands do not observe the require
ments, but place prohibitive duties
upon articles entitled to admission
free OF duty under the terms of the
convention.
Some complaint is also made o.
Brazil in this direction, but not to Sc
great an extent as with regard to the
islands. The treaty with Brazil i

Great Superiority of the French Over

The proportion of artists in France of

OF many good reasons for this Is GER
tainly the exceptional skill and ex-
prod uctive processes. and especially
those which not only translate tn
form of the original, but the color a
as well. Those color reproductions
printed from metal rellef-plates. aud not
from photographic stones-the method
usually resorted to by the rest of the
world-are unique. The secret Of secur-
ing with but few impressions the marvel
lous combinations Of color, the effect of
washes. tones. and lines, combined with u
verve and character quite Undesirable.
is one of which only the French printers
artist Is complete master. just across
the border the German printer has de-
veloped photography with something of
the same enthusiasm which the Frsuch-
man has devoted to the relief-plate; each
practically making few excursions into
the others methods Of accomplishing
the same thing.
A still further reason for this great
superiority is the innate artistic sense Of
the French printer. or more properly. the
pressman. In other countries. where

the Illustrator as his natural enemies,

County Board of Health Will Ask Dr.
King for an Explanation.
At the ne sting of the County Board of
Health Clerk Rooney notified the mem
bars that James Mcnamara died on Oc-
tober Is of d%iphtheria. and that Dr.. J. j.
Mclean, who hal attended him, failed
to report the case, and also that no pur-
pie ribbon was displayed on the door by
Undertaken Mcdonald, as the law re-
ouires iu the case of contagious disease.
Clerk Rooney in another report in
formed the board shat application had
been made for the removal of the remains
OF one Cadam, who died at Snake Hill in
May, 1887. but thai 10 record of such
death could BE- found. The Clerk like
wise said that the friends OF Sarah Kart
hoH, who died in the Lunatic Asylum at
Snake Hill. desired to disinter her body
and remove the remains. The woman
died in June. 1898. but no record of such
death could be found. The beard will
make inquiry of Dir. King. the Superin-
tendent of the asylum as to why there Is
no record of the death.
The board was informed by Clerk
Rooney That q large number of mid wives
were practicing without 4 proper license
to do SO In this county. and the clerk was
directed to notify these persons that they
prosecuted.
During the meeting a bill for a metallic
casket was presented to the board. 1t WAS
referred to DR.. Converse, who said he
had never ordered any az the expense OF
the county, but that City Health Iu-
spector Benjamin had done SO to bury
the cholera patient who died last
summer. The bill may be considered
again at the meeting of the board which
will be held today.

An election night concert of more than

made the artistic success of the event ng
in Liszt's "Gnomenreigen." Her others
numbers were Scharwenka's s'Polish

"Aragonaise" from Massenet's ''Cid."
In response to a call she playe d Nevin's

credit for an excellent bass solo, one must
call his attention to the PRONUNCIATION of

of novelty to the audience.
AS the artists all generously gave their
services, it is a pity that such a pro~
gramme should have met with such a
cold and conversational house. The only
vigorous applause was after the reading
of the early returns by Pastor Krantz be-
tween the parts.
