 Paris, Dec. 8.--Thes favorable impres- sion of President Taft's message re- flected in the Bourse Is re-echoed in the press which calls attention to the importance of his declarations as to foreign relations, and foresees that the United States Is. destined to play an in- creasingly powerful part in the worlds affairs, especially from the standpoint of commerce.
 The Journal Des Debats says. that if the United States has not succeeded in completely winning over the confidence and sympathy of the Latin republics she certainly has potent role in the Far East in the exercise of prepon- derating influence in china thus open ing up an immense field for American investment, and by c tactful mixture of diplomacy and show of force she has induced Japan 10 link arms with her. so that they may stand together for . status quo In the orient.
 The Steele sums up the message as bespeaking prosperity and confidence at home and expansion by force or per- suasion abroad. It thinks that Prest- dent Taft's remark on the application of maximum duties will do much tc calm European inquietude in regard to the American tariff law.
