No Immediate Prospect of the Con-
cIusiOn of the Negotiations.
Washington, Nov. H-There Is no i'm
mediate prospect of the conclusion of the
reciprocity negotiations between the Unit
ed States and France. Both governments
have presented elaborate statistics to
show their respective positions in any
reciprocity arrangement. but the matter
has not progressed to the point where an
agreement can be foreseen. Having pre-
scented the French side of the<case from
every point, Mr.. Patenotre, the French
ambassador. has now referred the question
back to his government, and is awaiting
his instructions. He had hoped to con-
clude the negotiations before departing to
his new post at Madrid, but this seems
hardly likely. owing to the many delays
which are occurring.
The new French ambassador M. Gam
bon, will arrive here about the first Of
the new year. AS the reciprocity question
is now before the authorities at Paris, it
Is likely that NJ. Gambon will receive per-
sonal instructions and come here fully
conversant with the question. In the
course of the negotiations an intimation
has been made by the United States that
a relaxation Of the French restrictions on
American meat products would be helpful
in forwarding the reciprocity agreement
