CUBAN RECIPROCITY.
The republican members of the sen
ate committee on Cuban relations
finally agreed to accept the Spooner
bill providing for reciprocity with Cu
ba, and decided to ask that a confer
ence of republican senators be called
on June 18 to consider its terms.
The Spooner bill is a substitute for
the house bill, and is as follows:
"When the republic of Cuba shall
have enacted a law or laws establish
ing preferential rates of customs du
ties on any or all articles, the growth,
production or manufacture of tho
United States Imported into Cuba,
which preferential rates shall in the
opinion of the president of the United
States constitute a -satisfactory equiv
alent for 1 e reduction hereinafter
provided in the rate of customs duties
uon artie'es the growth, production
or manufacture of Uuoa imported into
the United States, and he shall so de
clare by proclamation thereupon and
thereafter, so long as such preferen
tial duties shall be continued by tho
government of Cuba, not longer, how
ever than five years, the duties levied,
paid' and collected upon such articles
so exported from Cuba to the United
States shall be 80 per centum of tho
duties specified in tho act entitled 'An
act to provide revenue for tho gov
ernment and to encourage tho indus
tries of tho United States,' approved
July 24, 1897, and any amendment
thereof. Provided, however, that Jt
shall bo tho duty of tho president to
thoroughly investigate through tho
diplomatic and consular representa
tives of the United States in Cuba, and
by such other means as he may deem
necessary to employ for the purpose,
whether the tariff concessions herein
before provided upon articles, the
growth, production or manufacture of
Cuba substantially Inures, so far as
the articles of sugar and tobacco are
concerned to the benefi. of the pro
ducers of said articles in Cuba and If
tho president shall bo satisfied from
such Investigation that the substantlyi
benefit of said concession upon either
of said articles is inuring to the pur
chasers thereof, individual or corpor
ate in the United States, it shall be
his duty to so declare by proclamation
to that effect and thereupon and
thereafter so long as said conditions
shall continue there shall he levied
and collected upon such articles or
that one of them as to which said con
ditions exist, the rate of duty leviel
and collected by law upon such article
or articles coming into the United
States from other foreign countries.'
On June 18 the president signed the
irrigation bill recently passed by con
gress, and the measure thus became a
law.
A recent report from Washington is
to the effect that Representative Der
mott of New Jersey has introduced a
bill for the appointment of federal
boards of investigation and arbitration
to deal with labor disputes. The meas
ure is said to be prompted by the con
tinuance of the coal strike.
The republican senators held a con
ference on June 18 on the subject of
Cuban reciprocity, and'announces their
unalterable opposition to reduction of
duty on Cuban products. It was tho
general opinion of the conference that
this session of congress would ad
journ without Cuban reciprocity leg
islation of any sort.
On June 11 Mr. Richardson of Ten
nessee made a vigorous speech in tho
senate arraigning the republican party
for its failure to Iceep its platform
promises, especially as regards the
trusts and necessity for tariff reduc
tion. Mr. Shallenberger of Nebraska made
a political speech condemning the ad
ministration for removing Miss Tay
lor, who was a clerk in the war de
partment, for her criticism of the ad
ministration's Philippine policy; also
for justifying General Wood's expen
diture of money in Cuba for the pro
motion of reciprocity legislation.
After a minute examination of the
evidence relating to the disturbance jn
"Venice occasioned by the marines vt
the cruiser Chicago some time ago,
Admiral Crowninshield finds that the
crew were ill-treated by the Venetians
from start to finish, and clears them
of the charge of resisting public au
thority. The navy department has
expressed its pleasure over the result
of the admiral's investigation in this
case.
