New York. Dec John Bassett
Moore. formerly counsellor Of the state

ion that the United States, at the con-
clusion of the European war, would

which category are embraced CONNER

necessary. when peace is reestablished,

up without delay the question OF the
conditions and regulations OF trade.

whom the treaty OF commerce and
