NO TARIFF WAR.
Germans Feel Confident That an
Agreement Will Be Reached.

BERLIN, December 19.-The spirit shown
by the American tariff commissioners in
their inquiry into precisely what the Ger
man government desires and its reasons
therefor has caused the German commits
standing SO far reaching that the idea of
a tariff war must be excluded will be
reached. This hopeful view is expressed
by the newspapers, which today give prom
inence to reports of the dinner given last
night by the American Association of Trade
in Commerce in honor of the American and
German commissioners, and to the state
ment of Nahum 1. Stone head of the
American commission, that it was the
American ambassador here, Mr.. Tower,
who brought about the appointment of
the commission and that to him must be
ascribed this stroke of craftsmanship.
The conservative party newspapers have
adopted quite different tone toward the
United States than previously.
All meeting of the conservative members
of the relchstag last week both Count Won
Kanitz and Count Van Stolberg, the lead
ers of the party, said it was the duty of
the conservatives to work in the interest
ment with the United States and for the
most friendly political relations with that
country because Germany'S view of the
situa ton must take in not only the Euro
pean states but that great power in the
western hemisphere"
The conservatives form the backbone of
the agrarlan interests and the changed at
titude of the party is an interesting politi-
cal phenomenon, indicating increasing har-
mOny between the strict government view
and the views of the landed aristocracy re-
garding the foreign policy of Germany.
