REcIpRocITY TREATIES

With the Colonies of the British West
Indics-EfFect on England.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. Oct. 22.-The
condition Of the commerce of Jamaica
and the anxiety expressed by the people
of that island for It's improvement have
resulted in the establishment Of new
direct steamship line between England
and that island. Copies of the British
Trade Journal, just received by the
treasury bureau OF statistics, state that
the colonial office has signed contract
with the Jamaica Fruit and Produce
Association for direct fruit and pas.
senger service between that island and
the United Kingdom, to commence May,
1900. The contract Is for tive years. and
the steamers will run fortnightly, at an
average speed OF fifteen knots, between
Kingston and Port Antonio and South
ampton. The steamers will be fitted
for the conveyance or fruit, and VIII
have storage for at least 10000 punches
of bananas. The contractors bind
themselves to employ at least six
agents in Jamaica In developing, the
fruit industry. to improve the wharf
accommodation at Kingston and other
ports, and to build one or more hotels
in the island. The subsidy payable is
10000 per annum-of which one-half
win be contributed by the imperial
government--to be increased to $4,000
II more passenger accommodation Is re-
Qulred.
The British Trade Journal Of october
!, commenting upon the condition OF
commerce In the British West Indies,
says: 1.-THE new reciprocity treaties be-
tween British colonies and the United
States bode no good to British manu-
facturers. They may show no directly
discriminating treatment against the
step-mother's goods, but they may
make arrangements which may reason
ably be held to be discriminating. For
instance, Barbados has concluded
convention with the United States pro-
Vlding that certain articles imported
from that country are to be imported
free Of duty, or at greatly reduced
rates. To make up for the loss Of rev.
enue thus occasloned, the colony
greatly increases the duties on the
classes OF merchandise imported chiefly
from the United Kingdom: and this Will
unfortunately hit Manchester and Biz.
mIngham traders very severely. The
reply Of the colonists will be that as the
United States have countervailed
bounty-fed sugar, they have opened
the door to the sugar OF Barbados,
and therefore may naturally expect the
colony to take American products at
low duties In return. AS soon as Man
chester and Birmingham adopt SINH.
lar policy they will have similar claim
on the colony.
