THE NEW RECIPROCITY.
English and american Agreement
of Limited Scope Negotiated.
Especial by French Gable to The Tribune
rCnnvriRht 1907. by The Tribune AssocIntion.l


London Nov 21.-Rumors have been current
IN Fleet street to-day of the negotiation Of a
commercial treaty between England and Amer
tca These are inaccurate expansions Of the
agreement Of limited scope which The Asso-
ciated Press has already summarized. The
American Ambassador has a shooting party at
Wrest Park where Prince Arthur Of Connaught
is the principal guest, and nobody at the en-
bassy has the information at command.
IT is known however, that the agreement was
signed several days ago and that the Amnas-
sador has been comforting with the Foreign or
fee on the subject for good many weeks Inc
Board Of Trade has complained Tor seVeraI
wears that France and other foreign nations
have been favored in America at the expense
Of Great Britain, and there has been a definite
list of grievances
The entire list has not been made up but one
of the principal grievances has been dealt with.
This is the maximum duties on British works
Of art These will be sent to America under
the new agreement a at the minimum rate, under
the third section of the tariff act. 1t is a rea-
sonable concession, which virtually accords the
most favored nation treatment to British art
lists.
It is based on the principle of equivalent
favors since it is granted in return for the free
admission into the kingdom of commercial
travellers samples from America, over which
there has been much irritation and controversy
in recent years.
The Board of Trade officials consider It an
equitable arrangement, far as 1t goes bu-
assert that there are still inequalities in the
treatment of British imports to America and
especially the Philippines which ought to be
rectifed by supplementary negotiations.
The alarmists were disappointed by the neg
lect of the directors to raise the bank rate to-
day, the advance not being justified by the
bank statement. l. N. F.

costed the grocer block from his home. asked

MAURITANIA In TO-DAY
LINER BREAKS RECORD.
Biggest Boat Afoat Makes Knots
More an Days Run than Sister.

On Board Steamship Mauretania by Wireless
Telegraph to Cape Sable. n. s. Nov. Give
have broken the record-the worlds record
for a days run. The Lusitania took the blue
ribbon with 6lS knots. The Mauretania has
wrested the coveted distinction from her sister
ship, for between noon of November 20 and
noon of November p she reeled off 624 knots
The news of this remarkable run came as a sur
prise to the passengers. No one expected that
we would do it. The word passed quickly from
one end of the ship to the other and there was
joy, surprise and congratulations on all sides
The run was made without apparent effort The
weather has been perfect and the ship running
smoothly.
&c. B. Hunter. chairman of the firm that con-
structed the Mauretania, VINO is on board with
a number of his assistants received an ovation
in the dining saloon after the news of the great
run became known. w. J. White an American
passenger, has made donation of $1,000 in
celebration of the record"
According to this message the Mauretania's
run from noon to noon is the fastest ever made
by any steamship It beats the best days run
made by her sister ship. the Lustania, by six
knots. that ships record for the same number
of hours being SIS knots. made between October
and s, on her last trip TO New York. It also
means that the new ships average speed for
the day 2512 knots.
Owing to gales the big ship has not made
good average speed the Lusitania, and il
the prediction of her commander. Captain
Pritchard, is correct, which is that the Maure
tania will finish her race against time and pass
the finish line off Sandy Hook Lightship at 8
o'clock this morning, she will have covered the
distance from Daunts Rock-2,7S0 miles zap
proximate)-in 124 hours and minutes. or 5
days. hours minutes and at an average
speed of 22.94 knots. This is hours Is minutes
behind the Lusitania's time.
The Mauretania's daily runs so far reported
are: Monday noon. 511 knots: Tuesday, 461
knots; Wednesday, 563 knots; Thursday, 624
knots. At noon on Thursday the Lusitania on
her last trip west had covered 2,415 knots, while
the Mauretania covered only 2,219 in the same
time leaving balance in favor of the Lusi-
tania of 1876 miles up to noon Of Thursday.
Officials of the Cunard Line said yesterday
that the Mauretania would probably dock at
about II o'clock this morning.
