WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From Our Regular Correspondent. }

(From Our Regular Correspondent
Washington, D. c., Dec. Is, 1902.
Word has been received by Secre-
tary Hay that General Tasker II.
Bliss has accomplished, in Havana,
the task Tor which he was sent to
Cuba and has either negotiated a
reciprocity treaty or has procured a
protocol which provides for such
treaty. AS heretofore stated IN these
letters, the new treaty provides for a
reduction Of the Dingley duties on
imports from Cuba of 90 per cent.
and secures in return therefrom ma
terial concessions from Cuba. Caba
is to adopt maximum and minimum
tariff schedules, the former to be as
sessed on imports from all countries
other than the United States. In
exemplifcation of the workings of
the new treaty it is stated that at
present Cuba imports more cotton
