Commercial Reciprocity Advantageous to
the United States.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 28.-General
Archibald j. Sampson, United States
minister to Ecuador, has arrived here,
after three years residence at Quito
He says that he has just concluded a
reciprocity commercial treaty with the
Ecuadorean government decidedly adj
vantageous to the United States.
Wine will be especially fostered
under the new treaty. Wine is in ex-
cellent demand and -four is $25 per
hundred pounds. This excessive price
is due to the high import duties, and
the fact that all supplies have to be
packed to the city OF Quito over trail
1856 miles up into the Andes and to an
altitude Of 10000 feet.

strikers from McAdoo went to several
mine settlements before daybreak and
induced several hundred men not to
go TO work. 1t was this marching
from mine to mine day after day in an
effort to stop the men from going to
work that eliminated in the awful
massacre by sheriffs' deputies three
years ago.
Calvin Pardee, one of the most in
huential mine owners in the HazeltOn
region, gave out an interview today,
full of defiance, in which he declared
that the operators will never yield to
the demands of the strikers, and that
IT is fight to the finish.
What is likely to become a serious
feature of the situation is the stop
page of coal traffic and the consequent
laying off of coal train crews. Carry
ing of coal is almost at a standstill in
the Wyoming and Lackawanna re-
giOns, and many hundreds of railroad
ers are idle. These men are likely to
take action designed to force the strike
to & quick conclusion. Even the Read
ing company, which has more coal for
sale than any company, is feeling the
strike effects ard is shipping less coal
today.
