Direct. Says c. r. Flint.

Although the statement made in The Tribune a
week ago by Charles r. Flint that Russia con-
ternpIated 4 reduction Of tariffs on American
products was officially confirmed by NJ. Witte on
Saturday last the occasion of his visit to Pres
ident Roosevelt. Mr.. Flint refused TO admit that
mis- action had been promised by the Emperor of
Russia vhen he talked with him in St. Petersburg
Mr.. Flint said last Tuesday that the Russian
rulers policy is to encourage Americans to take
part in the development of the enormous natural
resources Of Russia, ana that the latter would
undoubtedly reduce the duties American
products"
Nj Flint said yesterday that the first result OF
this will be material increase in the exports from
the United States tc Russia. While under the Old
conditions Americans shipped certain parts of
machinery to Germany the imports by Russia of
completed machines were from Germany and other
European countries. Under the present conditions
the shipments of agricultural implements and ma
chinery of other character will be made direct MI
Flint said
Several manufacturers have within the last few
days been making comparisons as to the relative
cost Of production, as it is now carried on IN Rus
STA and the cost of production of similar products
in the United States. They seek basis for IN,
cooperating with other at present engaged
in the same line of business in Russia
