PRESUMPTION THAT AMERICAN GOODS FOX
CHINA ARE NOW UNRESTRICTED.

Washington, Aug 17-The announcement
contained in Mr. Sharrets's brief dispatch to the
State Department brings to a successful con-
cIusion negotiations which have been in prog
ress for many months for a tariff treaty oe-
tween China and this country. 1t was stpuiat-
cd as one of the features OF the peace agree
rnent between China and the foreign powers d'
the close Of the Boxer outbreak, that an en'lreiS
new trade treaty should be made. This carried
out the purpose Secretary Hay had maintained
throughout the preceding negotiations for an
omen door the desire being to open up foreign
communications with the interior of China, and
TINS 10 gain access to the vast markets or the
e-1pire.
Following the conclusion OF the peace ar
ranrements Mr.. Sharrets was selected to carry
on the tariff negotiations in behalf OF the
limited States This selection was due 10 MS
long familiarity with tariff affairs, as ne had
assisted in the framing Of recent tarin Ieslsia-
ton before Congress. and had also served as
ore NJ the general appraisers of New-York. He
went to China about year ago and has since
been engaged in working out the details or
tariff agreement 1t was announced about a
month ago that the British commissioners had
concluded tariff treaty with China, ana II was
understood at that time that the British treaty
would serve as a basis for similar treaties with
the United States and other foreign countries
The state Department was advised at the time
that the rates on imports entering China were
1.iA per cent and the export duties Y per CEN.
one of the most important provisions OF the
Brltish-China treaty that abolishlnG the
lkin tax 1t Il presumed that similar rates are
made In the American treaty. and that the lihln
tax is abolished as far a. il relates TO American
goods in transit The likin tax has oeen one OF
the most burdensome exacuons or the any
-'o,n1 Chimes system as IL was levied by the
officials at various points through the interior;
without uniformity, and often with less fesaEG
for commercial ends than for the enrichment OF

tion of this lax will go far toward encouraging
foreign trade and traffic IN the interior or emma

FTROPE4N TARIFF UNION.
GERMAN PROFESSOR ARGUES THAT IT WILL

a GERMAN PROFESSOR ARGUES THAT 1T WILL
BE NEEDED.
Berlin, Aug. 17.-Baron August Sartorious von
Waltershausen, professor of political economy at
Strassburg University and one of the leading
German authorities on American subjects. will
contribute striking article 10 forthcoming
number of the "Zetschrift fur Socialwissen
schaft' on The United States OF Central Eu-
rope" The writer will argue that the Central
European States will sooner or later be COM
PEELED to erect common tariff barrier against
the aims of the united States to economic ascen-
dency or against those of Greater Britain. with
greatly moderated tariffs and perhaps free trade
between themselves. Baron Won Waltershausen
believes that eventually a complete political
union between Germany. Austria, Switzerland
Belgium and Holland is probable. and that this
union will give these countries impregnable
economic position. The baron will argue, also
that great States like the United States and
Russia possess recuperative powers superior TO
those of the isolated and small countries of
Western Europe. In support of this statement
he instances the fact that the United States
issued loans at { per cent at the end of the
Civil War and refunded these loans az per
cent In 1892
