Maximum Tariff.

From the Iron Trade Review.
 The courteous spirit shown in Ameri- can official circles towards Great Britain in giving the full amount of notice for the abrogatiop of trade agreements under the new tariff, Is appreciated by British traders, and will tend to strengthen tho cordial feeling existing between the two countries. At the same time, 1t cannot be said that great anxiety on the matter exists in the old country, for the reason that in the practical absence of British tariffs, manufacturers here count, as a matter of course, upon receiving the best treatment possible by America under the most favored nation arrangements. There is no agreement in regard to iron and steel, and as Great Britain does not come under the category of those imposing dis eliminating duties against America, there is no possibility of her being penalized. in having to pay the new maximum of 25 per cent above the new tariff rates. There Is revision of agreement on ac- count of a change in the tariff upon works of art of British production. and this is the only agreement in existence of the kind between the two countries.
 At the same time, Great Britain Is rath- CT strongly interested from the competi- tors and spectators point of view, in de- velopments as between America and France and Germany. If any friction arises between either of these countries. England stands to benefit therefrom. The imposition of the maximum tariff on the continent would decidedly benefit Great Britain, giving kind of preferential ad- vantage.
 Considerable importance Is attached to the new provisions which deal for exam- pie with tho declaration of the market value It is believed that British makers have suffered in the past good deal from the less scrupulous undervaluation on the continent The closer supervision over inn porters will. 1t is believed, in the long run, operate to the advantage of British traders. who are comparatively free from charges of underyaluation or evasion.
