THE TREATY WITH CUB4.
E1fent Of the Opposition IN Congress
EI7ap9erated.
Exaggerated.
[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.


Washington, Dec 30.-There is an apparent
disposition in certain quarters to magnify the
somewhat vaguely expressed opposition of some
of the insurgent members of Congress to the
Cuban treaty. AS has been told in The Tribune.
some Senators refuse to state their position in
regard to the treaty until after the convention Of
beet growers. which meets in Washington on
January g. but an evidence of the tendency to
seize upon everything susceptible of a construc-
tion antagonistic to the treaty is furnished by
the remarks Of Senator Scott, who told The
Tribune to-day that he had been amazed at the
widely published statements along this line at
tributed to him. and which he had never heard
of until he had seen them in print. Mr. Scott
denied the proposition credited to him that recip-
rocal concessions to Cuba would warrant a de-
mand by Germany for similar concessions, and
said that he did not consider that such a claim
could be made on any reasonable basis, Ger
many and Cuba being in totally different cate
gores.''
The Senator declined to say what would be
his attitude when the treaty came before the
Senate for ratification, but declared ernphah-
cally that the only criticism of the convention
he had thus far expressed was the fear that
German sugar might find entrance to the United
States through Cuba, and he further said that
this criticism had been made after a cursory
reading of the terms of the convention.
The friends of the treaty are, however, conh-
dent that they can dissipate Senator SCOTS
fears, as it expressly stipulates that the reduc-
tion of the Dingley rates shall apply only TO
goods being the product of the soil or the in
dustry Of Cuba" German sugar, being a beet
product, would be easily distinguished from the
cane product Of Cuba, even If the CUBAN tarlH
did not make the importation Of German sugar

CONSUL GENERAL GooDNoW ACCUSED
He Denies Charges Made by the American
Association at Shanghai.

Washington Dec. S0.-John Goodnow, United
States consul general at Shanghai. has been made
the object of formal attack by the American AS
sociation at Shanghai, and the charges will be
duly investigated by the State Department The
principal charge is connected with the transfer
of vessel from the Chinese to the American flag.
Il is alleged that the consul general charged eX-
cessve fees for his part in the transfer Again. it
IS charged that he refused to perform his duty In
ordering q court OF inquiry to examine into the
facts connected with the wreck Of this ship.
Mr. Goodwin has made vigorous defence. as
serting that the first charge, based principally on
the affidavit of z Chnaman, is untrue. To the sec
ond charge he replies that he was not approached
bv any authorized person to order the court. 1t
is expected that when the State Department comes
10 take an this case the questions at issue being
mainly of fact it will refer the matter TO the
United States legation at Peking for examination

CUBAN SUGAR TRADE GROWS.
Larger Crops and Greater Exports Pre-
dicted

! Havana, Dec. 27 (SpeciaD.-The reported fail
ure Of the beet sugar crop IN Germany, the
rise in the price of sugar In the last few weeks
and the prospects for early ratification OF
the treaty Of reciprocity have cast a roseate hue
the expectations of most classes in Cuba.
The difference Of a fraction Of a cent IN the
price Of sugar creates the greatest interest, and
the difference lately has been in the right
direction the interest has been doubly felt.
Despite the hard times through which Cuta
has been passing, owing. for the most part,
to the low price of sugar, It has not been with
out its good effects. A well known sugar planter
explained this to The Tribune correspondent
to-day The Cubans make sugar for three reals
and also living profit, SO that now they have
quit the old expensive ways, and the slightest
raise in the price Of sugar. together with the
reduction of 20 per cent on tariff duties. It is
thought, will result in not only allowing some
thing more than living profit. but will allow
money to be collected toward the paying off
Of the mortgages which have accumulated in
the last few years
The Cuban branch of Dun's Commercial
Agency has prepared some very valuable Sta
tistics Cuba in article which will appear
in a special edition of 'Duns Review" Janu-
ary 3. One paragraph OF this article. devoted
10 sugar. is follows:
The chief source Of wealth of Cuba is agri-
culture. and sugar is her principal product The
largest crop in the history Of the island was
harvested in 1894. and amounted to 1.054.00D
tons, valued al about So. 100000. The crop fell
off to 225O00 tons in 1896. and in 1897
it amounted to only $4,000 tons. The crop OF
1899 had increased to 335, 600 and that OF 1902
will amount TO $4,000 The growing crop had
exceptionally favorable weather during the cru
ciai months of October and November, and 1t is
row estimated at about 10000 tons. whereas
In the early part OF September IL thought
that il would be smaller than the previous crop.
Greater economy has been practised in making
the present crop than ever before in the history
OF the industry and it IS believed that. under
favorable conditions. planters with good lands
and machinery can, with good management,
produce sugar at a cost OF 11a cents pound,
some few large estates being able to make even
q larger showing. The value of sugar exported
