Washington. Jan. 26.-Some idea Of
what the commissioners have done in
reducing duties on Canadian goods to be
admitted into tho United States and
American goods admitted into Canada
under tho new agreement is given by
extracts from the exhaustive schedules
included IN the correspondence
It appears that among the articles
now dutiable that go on the free list are
cattle. which are now dutiable at the
rate Of from 81 each to 27.5 per cent
coming into the United States and at %
per cent going into Canada Every
canadian hog pays 81 so when he
crosses the line. and so does a sheep,
while the American porker is taxed liz
cents a pound when he enters Canada,
and sheep pay 25 per cent. Canadian
poultry now pay a duty OF . cents a
mound dead and cents alive, and
American poultry crossing into Canada
pays 20 per cent.
canadian wheat is taxed % cents a
bnshel entering America, which is more
than double the rate American wheat
costs imported into Canada All food
nroducts. such as oats, barley, buck
wheat, etc, now pay duties ranging from
IL 70 As cents a bushel coming from
Canada, and from 10 cents to 20 cents
entering Canada from the United States.
Hay pays 81 ton going into Canada
and So returning, AL these will now be
free, If the agreement is ratified. So
will onions and potatoes, dried fruits and
cheese and fresh milk and eggs, which
now pay considerable duties, as much as
o. cents a bushel in the case OF potatoes
and s cents dozen for eggs Of Canadian
production.
While the Canadians will get their
cottonseed oil free, where they now pay
a duty Of 17.5 per cent. Canadian flax

Sale Ever Held Of Exchanged PianoIa Pianos.

yNHE Used Piano Sales at Aeoan Hall have come to be recog
nzed the most important events IN the piano business
of New York. They attract the patronage OF dscrlmlna
- ing people-peope who know values and who demand
something than cheapness m the articles that they buy
Used Pianos is scarcely appropriate term for the majority
of the instruments included in this Sale
More correctly speaking they unused pianos as the reason
for their coming back to because their owners eond not
play tm and desired to replace them with the Panoa Piano
which every member of the family play and enjoy.
These pianos came from homes that afford such nstru
ens as the Stenway Weber, Seck and other Fanoa Planes
The majority therefore, of the highest class.
