holds that Major Smith has failed 20 make out

Major Smith was charged with cowardice at the
battle OF San Juan Hill. but honorably dis
charged when the list Regiment was mustered out.
Subsequently Board OF Inquiry held an investga-

TREATY OPPOSED IN FRANCE.
........wagncr

FRANCO-AMERICAN RECIPROCITY NEGo-
TIATIONs AGAIN IN A CRITICAL STAGE
Washington, July 2O-The Franco American
reciprocity negotiations have again assumed a
critical stage, and as only three more days re-
main within which a treaty be framed
under the Dingley act there is considerable
anxiety as to the final success of the negotia-
tions. The conditions have entirely changed
within the last few days. and whereas at one
time the French Ambassador. NJ. Cambon, and
the special reciprocity delegate. NJ. Charpentier,
were strongly desirous of closing the matter, it
is understood that they no longer show any
anxiety to do so. This change is said to arise
largely from an agitation which has begun in
France against the treaty on the ground that 1t
threatens to bring American goods into competi-
ton with French goods. and to throw many
workmen out Of employment.
This unexpected opposition in France appears
10 have induced the Government leaders to use
great circumspection in closing the negotiations.
This in turn is finding expression here. and un-
willingness to grant the large concession pro-
posed at the outset is shown. In particular II
is understood that the authorities at Paris have
made it clear that ten or twelve articles must
not figure in the reductions, owing TO the ex-
tent to which they would affect the agrarian
interests Of France. Whether the officials here
will feel justified in concluding the negotiations
In the face Of this feeling the part of the
French authorities remains TO be determined
and the answer will decide whether or not there
IS TO be treaty.
An unexpected phase OF the negotiations has
developed recently. This is that American min
eral oils. Of which the exports 10 France are
heavy, at present receive the minimum rate in
anticipation OF the closing Of a reciprocity
treaty but II the treaty fails the French Gov
eminent will Immediately apply the maximum
rate. The difference in duty this product
alone is said to amount 10 100000
II the present sharp differences are adjusted
the expectation is that the treaty will be signed
on Saturday
