ago experimental trainload shipments were
made with unsatisfactory results Last
year the shipments were omitted, but they
were resumed this year, when three ship

aging over ten tons for each carload, were
made, but with still worse results. The
fruit came by special freight trains from
Sacramento to New York, was transferred
TO fast steamships here and sent from
Southam pton by special train to London,

"The California fruit exported con sisted
mainly of pears, peaches and plums, which
came into competition with the prolific

special event of the afternoon, following
Robert Us failure to reduce his record.
The track was fast and weather surerb.

Mcdowell drove him. He had the pole.
while just behind him was thoro ughbred

able one, showing a steady Improvement.
The first quarter was gone in :32, the half
in 1:04h, he Ihree-quarters in :36A, and
the mile in 2:O7A. When Williams made
the announcement there were loud cries
for Mcdowell, the famous driver, who
was obliged to 60 up in the grand stand
and acknowledge the ovation.
Ii was $40 o'clock when Robert was
sent off on second scoring. In warm
ing heat he had made the circuit in 2:11
and many thought he would pace great
mile even if he failed to beat his own
record. Ed Geers was the driver. In the
judges stand was John Fl. Leash of

fast four-year-old PAGER. Chandler drove

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-Senor Mura-

following statement as to recent cable re-
ports that Spain had instructed him to
open negotiations for new commercial
treaty:
''Since the reciprocity arrangements a
brisk trade has been carried on between
the United Sites and Cuba ard Porto
Rico, compOs ed principally Of farm prod
ucts. which runs I'D into the millions,
say an average of $50, 100000 yearly for
American exports. 1t is as much to the
interest of the United States as of Spain
that the change of mutual commodities
should not cease.
"The American sugar producers do not
raj the tenth part of what is required for
home consumption, and struggle besides
under disadvantages of climate, soil and
price of labor. Americans, therefore, need
our sugar, and their refining Industries are
largely benefited by it. as well as the
farmers. who find a ready mar
ket for their surplus in Cuba and Porto
Rico. Everything points TO the necessity
of a fair and equitable understanding.

feel hopeful of accomplishing something
in the liue of reciprocal trade relations.
Examination of the tariff law discloses
tile fact that ii contains no provision for a
duty upon imported fruits preserved in
brandy or other spirits. The omission
was not discovered until an application
was received at the Treasury Department
from a large i'm porter of such things for
information as to their classification under
the present tariff laws. Under the Nc
Kinley law. fruits preserved in spirits were
subject to a duty Of 50 per cent ad valo-
rem. 1t is probable the department will
decide that the best thing to do is 10 assess
duty on the spirits and fruits separately
according tn the rate provided for each in
the tariff art. In this case the duty will
be higher than it was under the old law
