10 the HarbOr Commissioners of the
City of Portland, Portland, Me.

Gentlemen:
The Boston and Maine Railroad Co. is the
owner of the small coal wharf adjoining the
Boston & Maine wharf ON the easterly side,
and it desires to improve this property by
widening and strengthening the dock be-
tween the two wharves and by. deepening
the water thereof, SO that vessels of large
draught may approach and discharge coal
into pockets to be erected on said coal
wharf To make room for tracks to these
pockets it will be necessary to fill fifty
feet of this dock from the stone wall as it
now stands.
It is therefore requested of your Board
that the owners be allowed to widen,
straighten and deepen said dock and to fill
solid fifty feet at the head; the outer line of
which will then be sixty-six 1861 feet inside
of the solid filling between the two wharves
below

Brazil Gives Notice OF Its Proposed

BY the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON. Sept. %. The Brszllian
government has given notice that the
reciprocity treaty between the United
States aud Brazil will be abrogated BY
Brazil January Let. This treaty is the
principal one negotiated by Secretary
Blaine.
Seflor Mendonca said today: BRA
zl's action is necessary sequence to
tins enactment OF the new tariff law by
the United States, and there is no sig-
nidcsnce in the action of my country
beyond its doing its part toward the
termination OF treaty which the tarih
aw itself sbrogate5.
"The original sgre ement gave either
country the privilege of renouncing the
treaty on July lat or January lat. OF any
given year, by giving three months'
notice. The tariff law served to abro-
gate the treaty without any notice to
Brazil. but our government saw fit to
give the full notice and the reciprocity
rates for American goods will remain in
effect until January in Brezil."
senior Mendonca was askad as to the
effect of the change OF the treaty.
The reciprocity treaty." he said.
Wnp thicAJ OOnCAutai w DLdLil IA
sugar. Prior to it our sugar had only
the domestic market, but the reciprocity
treaty gave up the United States market.
As result our sugar trade to this coun-
try has tripled in the last three years.
Our coffee trade, which was another
main item, will not be affected by the
change. On the part of the United
States the treaty gave advantages to this
country on manufactured iron Roods,
railroad suppliee, lard and agricultural
products. The rates will not be mate
rally raised against this country, and
aE expecting this country 30 make large
increases in sending manufactured
woolens to Brazil as a results of the new
wool manufacturing induced by free raw
wool In the new tariff law. Outside Of
this, few changes will occur by the
termination of reciprocity"
Besides the reciprocity with Brazil,
which will lapse entirely January lat
next, the United States has entered into
nine other similar arrangements with
other nations under the authority con-
ferred by the Mckinley act. The ar
rangementa are with Spain and Cuba
and Porto Rico. with the Dominican
republic, with Guatemala, with Ger
many, Nicaragua, Honduras, Austro-
hungary, chlvsuOr ana Ireat britains
the last named ia the British colonies of
Trinidad Barbados, the LsewRrd
islands, Nevos, Dominica, the Windward
islands. British Guiana aud Jamaica.
The frat OF these arrangements was
made with Brazil, January %, 1892, and
the last with Salvador. Noyember %,
1892. 1t is expected that Brazils ex-
amnla will ha- -follnmad- by n-ll-tAs other
| nations concerned, with the possible
exception of Spain, which will proceed
more leisurely in the hope of negotiating
treaty to replace the commercial ar.
