said
1t is my first visit to the United Sl.as
and only regret that ! deferred com.ak
here 90 long. There Il in Grrm1uv an
inadequate appreciation Of what America
has done and is doing. and frankly sly
that what have seen here during my short
stay has really amazed me.
My first impression of New York /.
really a very grand one. | am impressed
not only by the size of the bulding- bl.
by the ma magniu;de Of movement and traii,
In the streets, both on the elevated aud
tram RAILROADS "a traffic that seem, - b,
very well organized.
Then again ] am greatly impressed
by the magnitude Of the commerce in all
branches OF tradeand indus rv and its con-
centration here in New York And one
has feeling In seeing il that il i, On a solid
basis and corresponds 10 the rai needs
OF a great working population
To-day | visited number Of tho great
department stores and importing houses,
and they are truly on splendid scale.
| was glad TO see In them the merchandise
of my own country and was glad to learn
that German merchandise was imported
because Il IL regarded az good and that 1t
meets the taste OF the country.
All this fortifies me in the opinion that
Germany and the United States must con-
tinue TO strengthen their good relations.
TO that end II IL absolutely necessary thai,
the reciprocity agreements now existing
: between the two countries should be en-
! larged and become commercial treaties
with the most favored nation clause.
-Our trade treaties now are like bag
| that is full OF holes. We want to sew up
| the holes.
-On the occasion OF President McKin-
| ley's death !, as a representative Of a large
| circle of Berlin merchants and manuia"-
! turers, conveyed to Ambassador White
, the expression of our sympathy To this
Mr.. White replied that our sympathy would
| be widely appreciated by Americans as
showing that, beneath all temporary dlf-
! ferences, there exists a deep feeling ot
! human sympathy between our two na-
| tions.
-Mr. White in this communication evil
| IDENTIFY meant by the words, temporary
| differences commercial differences whlcn
| now are not great
-On Germany's side there are complaints
concerning certain rigorous measures re-
| specting the customs tariff and especially
respecting the Board Of Apprai 'ers and It's
severe Methods. America, on the other
! hand, has complained in the last Few years
| about the limitations put upon the business
| Of American life insurance societies m
Germany. This point, however, is nov
settled to the satisfaction Of all concerned
Then again, there has been compliant
! here about our treatment of America
! fruit and meat products, which treatment
! however, il largely based upon SANITARY
police restrictions.
Regarding the question OF fruit th

given the Americans fresh cause OF com
