TRADE IN GERMANY
How New Treaties May Affect
80 United States

BERLIN, Jan. 2S.-The government
this evening published an abstract of
the new commercial treaties with Aus
tro-Hungary, Russia, Switzerland, Bel
gium, Italy, Roumania and Servia,
which are expected to deeply affect
Germany's foreign trade for the next
ten years, the term for which the treat
les run. The treaties affect the United
States adversely only in case they are
defined by Germany as not coming un-
der the most favored nation clause.
The government is determined not to
raise the question of this clause until
the treaties go into effect.
AT all events the government is not
willing to say in advance how Amer
lean products will be treated, although
the inference is that the German gov
ernment is reluctant to give the Unit
ed States the benefits of bargains in
which Germany will give something in
order to gain some other thing. The
German government would gladly ne
gotiate reciprocal treaty with the
United States. The question as to
what can be done in the absence of
such treaty remains open. Germany
has collected expressions of American
government officials on the Cuban or
other American reciprocal treaties that
make, as the German government
thinks, a strong argument against ad-
mitting the United States to the bene-
fits of the new treaties. Still, the gov
ernment is on-comnittal, and would
probably propose treaty to the Unit
ed States if it thought there was any
likelihood of the proposition being ac-

IMMIGRANTS POUR I'm
FASTER AND FASTER
Increase in Number of Arrivals From
Russia Most Significant

WASHINGTON, d. c.. Jan. 2S.-An
almost startling increase in immigra-
tion is shown by the figures for De-
cember. The increase from Russia and
Austria Hungary is particularly note
worthy and the Increase from Russia
is considered significant. In Deem
Der, 1902, the number of immigrants
arriving from Russia was 1O,104, in
December, 1908, 10,431, and in Decem-
Der, 1904, 1892. The immigration from
Austria-Hungary in December shows
an increase of 12,73S over that of De-
cember, 1903, aggregating 23,433. From
the whole of Europe the immigration
was 58,S94, an increase of 1888 over
December a year ago. Usually immi-
grafton in December, January and
February is comparatively light.
Commissioner Sargent points out
that if the total immigration from all
countries, which in December aggre-
gated 62,602, shall be maintained
throughout the year, together with the
natural increase to be expected in
March, April, May and June, the pres

WILL PROBE GRAIN
RATE PARTIALIIY.
Shippers and Officials to APP
pear Before Committee of
Legislature

This week the legislature committee on
transportation will take up the matters
of alleged railroad discrimination against
points tributary to the Twin Cities and in
favor of Chicago and Milwaukee. The
first case to be. presented will be that
against the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
road, which is charged with making a
higher rate from Duluth to Red Wing
on grain than from Milwaukee and Chi
cago to Red Wing. The distance from
Chicago to the Minnesota town IS much
more than from the head of the lakes to
the same place.
The committee will be met by the
Executive committee of the Shippers as
sociation headed by George S. Lotus and
fn reply to the charges that will be made
by the shippers, ]. T. Conley, assistant
general freight agent of the Milwaukee
In Minneapolis, has been cited to appear.
Hhe hearing will take place Monday at 10
O'Clock.

After this case has been disposed of the
Committee of the legislator will take up
IN succession complaints of discrimina-
tion against other roads centering in ST.
Paul and will probably require a week
Or ten days to hear all the testimony
promised by the shippers.

tee of the Municipal league will meet in

With regard to the grain rate trouble

Grain has been above the export level
for about two weeks, but the cutting of

tion by the Eastern roads on this class

Cities high and dry.

ter has now been adjusted and the East
ern roads have agreed to allow a differen-
tial of 21a cents from the Twin Cities
