causes. First. it is stated that Mr.. Tay-

The second cause is said 10 have been Of
a more serious nature, for. it is asserted,
the American government. not content
with the adoption Of tariff schedules ia
voring foreigners generally, wanted a
special tariff discrimination In favor Of
American goods. To this the Duke OF
Tetuan strenuously objected, urging that
the consent of other powers could not be
obtained TO an arrangement OF this char
acter.
