In a letter to DIR. Hartman, concerning
among other things:

Dear DIR. Ilartman-I find Pc-ru-na a

assessed an import duty OF a like
amount, making the engine cost him
$4,000. Under such a system it would
of course be next to impossible for the
Industries of the richest country in the
world to develop, but especially in
Cuba, where there were no mechanics
to set up the business of manufacture
ing engines and high-gradc machinery
or implements.
1t is expected that under the new
tariff the trade between the United
States and Cuba will lie augmented in
an important degree, and the trade
with other nations will be beneficial in
aiding in the improvement of condi-
tions In tho island, as soon as the dam
ger of recurrence of war conditions
shall have permanently disappeared.
What the Postal Statistics . how.
The statistics given In the annual re.
port of the Postmaster General afford
proof of the greatly increased prosper
ity visible in the year ending June 30,
1898. The general business of the de-
partment shows an increase of over &c.
OOO,OOO i'm the last fiscal year. In all de-
~partments of the service the influence
OF prosperous times has made itself
apparent. The number of domestic
money orders issued in the year was
l, 19S,O1S, as against %, 1G0,O55 in the
previous year; the amount carried was
$191 ,354.121, rs against $174.AS2.676 Of
the previous year. There has been an
increase of 2.35S in the number of new
money order Offices established i'm the
year.
1t is in the increase of nearly $17,-
100000 in the transmission of small
sums through the post offices that the
true index of augmented prosperity
among people of moderate means is to
be found. The postal statistics furnish
eloquent testimony as to the improve
ment wrought i'm the first eleven months
of restored protection.

gars which are made of inferior tobac-
&C and sold as genuine Cuban goods"
The rates of the new Cuban tariff will
be arranged to afford protection ON
lines of this nature.
The rates of duty fixed on agricul-
tural products, flour and implements of
agriculture will be lower under the
new duty lists. as will also be the rates
on machinery. No implements or ma
chinery or flour are produced in the
island, and probably will not be for
many years to ONE. The rates of duty
on these articles we're maintained at
high figures by tie Spanish Govern
ment purely for revenue purposes, and
1t will he readily seen that, as there
was no competition by the producers
of the island in goods and commodi-
ties of these classes. the burden of ex-
cessive taxation fell upon the people of
Cuba. Under the new schedules the
rates oil flour and machinery and fin
plements will be much lower, and it. is
expected that the people of Cuba will
derive rich benefits from the new con-
ditions. Under the old Spanish tariff,
which seems to have been made with
maximum rates so high on certain lines
to prevent the development OF the
of the island, it was almost
impossible to get machinery and imple-
ments into Cuba. 1t la related by
treasury officials that maximum rates
on engines snd machinery were SO
high that 1t was impossible under the
Spanish tariff for a Cuban who im-
ported an engine costing 5000 to be
