Commissioner Hall originally opposed

that no matter what the stock issue was
there was nothing before the commission
TO show the company had property to
the amount Of the issue. Later 1t was
discovered the stock was Issued July IA,

permission was ever granted or even
asked
The company must now first obtain

Vice Presidential Candidate.

Mr.. Reid soon found. however, that in
retiring from the foreign service of the
nation he had by no means released him
self from the imperative demands of pub
lie duty. Soon after his arrival in Amer
lea he was called upon tn be the perma-
nent chairman Of the New York State
Republican Convention. and I'm that ca
paclty ne made a deep impression with
his address on the momentous issues Of
the then impending Presidential cam
paign. A few weeks later the Republican
National Convention met at Minneapolis
and a struggle ensued over the Presden-
tial candidacy. ending In the renomna-
ton OF President Harrison. over the
e-Presdential nomination, however,
there was no contest. The delegates from
New York State, who mad been divided
the Presidency, were united In
presenting the name of Mr. Reid: no
Vention. and on June 10 he was made the
candidate of the party by reclamation.
A few DAYS later ne received formal no.
tification of his nomination from a COM
mi,tee which visited MIN at his home and
on October IS he published his letter of
acc eEtance. which, fully and authorita-
lively discussing the pending issues was
widely used as one Of the most effective

years had entirely barred American pork
from the French market. This prohlbi-
ton had been made on sanitary grounds
because OF the supposed prevalence OF
trichinosIs in American pork: Mr.. Reld
represpnted 60 the French government
that France was at that very time re-
celviug pork from at least one other
country I'm which trlchinoss was far more
prevalent than ever IT had been here;
that. according 10 the Academy OF Medi-
cine in Paris. American pork was health
ful. that American pork had received the
highest commentator at the Paris
worlds fair OF 1889. and that the discrimi-
nation against that important article Of
commerce was illogical. unreasonable,
unfrlcndly 10 America and detrimental to
the French people. who needed the food
supply which was thus denied them.
These representations were made with a
wealth Of citation. argument and per-
suasion. with the result that the hostile
DEGREES were abolished and American
pork was once more freely admitted to
the French market. As a prompt and
direct result OF this achievement, more
over. similar action occurred In other
countries throughout the Continent OF
Europe For as soon as Mr.. Reid was
thus successful in France the American
ministers i'm Germany. Austria-Hungary.

followed his lead, used his arguments and
attained the same end.
These and other services especially in

one OF the most conspicuous, honored

At last. however. in March. 1859. he was

much work Of prime Importance TO be
done. especially In improving the com

with France, and through that country
with all Europe. One OF Mr.. Reid g
earliest achievements in Paris was that
OF securing adequate American repre-

to which he added a fine sequel later in
securing from France the first acceptance
from "A European nation OF the invitation
