News of Passage of Bill Received Ev-
 anywhere With Enthusiasm.
 HAVANA, Dec. IT. = News of the passage by the United States senate of the bill for reciprocity between the United States and Cuba. conveyed here by bulletin, soon spread through the city. It came somewhat as a surprise both to the Cuban and Spanish mer- chants, the prolonged negotiations and the many delays having caused a feel ing of skepticism as to the outcome, which was relieved only by the news.
 Expressions of satisfaction are uni- versal in Havana, Many Americans engaged in enterprises in Cuba are en- thusiastic and believe that business generally will find relief from the de- pression of the past four months, dur ing which stocks ran extremely low. It is believed that the passage of the bill will result immediately in heavy buying both from the United States and Europe.

CUBAN BILL PASSED
Senate Makes Treaty Effec-
 tive by Large Majority.
WILL FOSTER INsULAR PROSPERITY
Twin Objects of the Government Were to Render Justice to Cuba and the Opening of New Mar
 kets to the United States.


 and the Opening of New Mar kets to the United States.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.--After an all day debate the senate passed the Cuban reciprocity treaty. The vote was 57 in favor of the treaty to IS against it. As the measure was passed by the house of representatives during the special session, 1t now only awaits the presidents signature. This will be affixed at once, as the special session was called for the purpose of disposing of the treaty.
 With the passage of the bill to make effective the treaty of commercial reef procity with Cuba the end for which the administration has constantly str1v- en, with the twin objects of justice to l Cuba and the opening of new market 1 to the United States, will be in sight and will be attained ten days after the exchange of notifications of the treaty. Epitomized, the new treaty admits into the United States all products of Cuba now dutiable at a reduction of 20 per cent upon the rates of the Ding ley tariff. In return Cuba admits prod | uClS Ol LLS OAulSu 0IdtCS dC dA UAuAA reduction from it's own tariff. Tn addi- l ton to this general concession Cuba agrees to three lists of imports from the United States upon which it grants reductions of duty respectively of 25, 30 and 40 per cent.
 1 Another important provision of the treaty is that no Cuban sugar during the life of the treaty shall be admitted into the United States at reduction of duty greater than 20 per cent upon the Dingley rate and that no other foreign sugar shall be admitted during the same period at any reduction of duty whatever The treaty is to continue in force for five years and thereafter un- til terminated by the giving of one years notice by either party.
 This summary of the treaty is perti- nent because it is expected that many 1 inquiries as to exact terms will be made by manufacturers and exporters l In the United States. They will need to study the schedule of articles upon which Cuba has made concessions of duty greater than 20 per cent. The in terest of the general public lies in knowing the broad expectations that are held as to the advantage that this country will gain in increased export trade, a trade that should grow with the growth of Cuba in population and industry, due to the insuIar prosperity that reciprocity is expected tC fosters
