PROyOKFS A VERY SPIRITED DEBATE
Dr. Paasehe Alleged It Had Already BY

Berlin, January 1.-THE rclchstag today
adopted resolution asking the government
to consider whether 1t is not In the inter

duty on refined petroleum against crude.
Ihe resolution is directed against the

rotary Won Fischer said he hoped the house
would not bother the government with such
u proposition. The levying Of duty on
reuned oil would BIZ exceedingly difficult
owing to the uncertain definition Of "crude"

Herr Free, moderate radical Of Bremen,
defended the standard Oil company. He
said petroleum had become cheaper since

The secretary of the interior, Count

debate ON the petroleum resolution. outlined
Germany new policy regarding the most

"'rhe most favored nation clause" said
the secretary, is variuusly interpreted by
different countries especially by the United
States. We can not lay down n universal
rule To refuse the most favored treatment
to nou-European countries, for we must al

the suspension Of the most favored treat

The speaker also declared that the United

AMENDMENr 10 cuBAN rREArY.

The Amendment insures Support Of All
the Republican Senators.
Washington. January little senate
committee on foreign relations today agreed
10 recommend the adoption OF an amend
mcnt 70 the Cuban reciprocity treaty, pro.
yidlng that the reduction Of 90 per cent
in the tariG on Cuban sugar shall not be
further reduced by any preferential rate
given to another country, This action was
taken at the instance Of the beet sugar
men,
roday's meeting also served TO bring out
objections to other features of the treaty.
Senator Taliaferro Of Florida made an
argument before the committee urging
amendments to the provisions relating to
tobacco and cattle.
Senator Bacon offered an amendment
placing the Cuban treaty on the same basis
as other reciprocity treaties, but the
amendment was not acted on.
Senator Bailey took positive ground
against the policy Of securing reciprocal
relations with other countries by means OF
treaties. He said that such course Is
unusual In that Il IS an Interference with
the authority vested In the house Of repre-
seutatives to originate all tariff Legislation.
1t is claimed that the adoption Of the
amendment relative to the reduction on
sugar win have the effect OF insurng tho
support OF practically all the republican
senators. The opposition 20 the striking
out OF the provision regarding tobacco was
because Of the plea on the part OF the Gu
bans that under II American tobacco might
be shipped to Cuba and then exported from
that island as Cuban tobacco, n Senator
Bacon's amendment should be adopted the
treaty would not become effective until II
should be acted on by the house.
