long notices Of the death OF Henry George,
and all acknowledge his personal inteR-
rity. The criticisms Of his doctrines follow
lines in acc rdance with the views of
the individual journals. The Times says that
IL by any chance he had been elected. Mr..
George. although a ~scrupulously honest man,
would probably have disappointed his dew
otees. 1t adds that his disappearance will give
a great advantage to Tammany.
The STANDARD says that Mr.. Georges opinions
will be invested with fresh potency Just because
the hand OF, Fate touched him suddenly when
he was making n supreme effort.
The Chronicle declares that no better man
or sweeter man has lived for many
years. Continuing. 1t says: when the great
party of social discomfort is ready for
action against the powerful forces Of American
plutocracy we can hope for it nothing better
than that 1t have the guidance of as earnest,

NEGOTIATIONS SUSPENDED.
Little Probability of Reciprocity
Treaties with Germany and France.

Little Probability of Reciprocity
Treaties with Germany and France.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-The reciprocity
negotiations between the United States and
Germany are practically suspended. They
never got beyond the initial stage. There
appears to have been a willingness on the
part of both governments to look into the
subject. but the inquiry did net develop any
prospect of material concessions on either
side The articles on which a reciprocity
agreement be made are produced in
France and not in Germany. The utmost
extent of a reciprocity treaty between the
United States and Germany, under the pres
cnt law, would be 20 per cent reduction
Of duty on certain agreed upon, German
products. Germany is chiefly concerned
about sugar, but the 20 per cent. reduction
in duty permitted under the Dingley law
II IS SAID, would be of Insignificant con-
sequence. Moreover, some doubt has aris-
en- as to whether any concessions on this
article would be granted by the United
states. in view of the tendency toward
building up the American sugar trade as
against that of bounty paying nations. 1t
German ambassador. FIR. Won Holleben
would give an impetus to the negotiations
and perhaps result in the conclusion of a
treaty, but, on the contrary. the subject
has lapsed. and neither government is
showing any anxiety TO urge the matter
to conclusion.
larry at standstill owing to the. course
Of the French government in raising the
duties on lard and other American prod
ucts. The reciprocity negotiations with
Great Britain to the British West H.
dies are proceeding slowly. but an agreement
is not expected in the near future.
Postage stamps for the Omaha show.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 22-Postmaster
General Gary has decided to order special

management of the exposition. They will
be of the denominations of 1-cent 2-cent.
scent, l0-cent and 81. Suggestions for de-
signs for the new issues will be received
at the Postoffice Department from any per-
sons who desire to submit them There will
be no attempt to withdraw from sale the
regular issues with view to the exclusive
use of the new stamps. as was the case
during the worlds fair when almost ali
postal business transacted with the
Columbian stamps. but they will be freely
supplied whenever there is a request for
them from pOstmasters. The new issues
will be different in color from the existing
ones. so that they may be readily distin-
guished apart.
