WASIIINC.IOX, July 20.—Senator Frye has received the following lottor from Secretary Blaine: "HAH IUUHOU. MO.. July 22.—nmr JTr. Frye: I have your reply lo my lottor anil am triad that the essential part of it has been given to the press. "You ask mo what assurance 1 have as to Spain's willingness to enter into reciprocal arrangements of trade with the T'nttoa States. Your question surprises tne. for you can not have forgotten thai only six years ago the Prime Minister of Spain, In his anxiety to secure free admission to our markets for tho sugar of Culia und Porto Ulco, agreed to a very extensive treaty of reciprocity with Mr. John W. Foster, then our Minister at Madrid. "A year before-in 18^—a very admirable treaty of reciprocity was negotiated by General Grant and Mr. William II. Treseot. as United States commissioners, with the republic of Mexico, a treaty well considered In all its parts and all its details, whose results would, I believe, have proved highly advantageous to hoth countries. "In view of the pending discussion it is a somewhat slgular circumstance that both those treaties of reciprocity failed to sccurc the approval of Congress and failed for the express reason that both provided for tho free admission of sugar. Congress would no: then allow a single pound of sugar to come in free of duty under any circumstances whatever. "And now the proposition is lo open our ports freo to everybody's sugar and to do it with such rapidity that we are not to have a moment's time to sco if we can not mako a better trade— a trade by which wo may pay for at least a part of the sugar in i.'ie products of American farms and shops. "Our ohange of opinion has certainly been remarkablo in so brief a period. Indeed the only danger of our not securing advantageous treaties of reciprocity now is the possible belief on the part ot those countries tliot we are so anxious for free sugar that by patient waiting they can secure all they desire without money and without price. Fearing that result, I sought an Interview with tne eight Republican members of the committee on ways and means more than five months ago—to bo exact, on the 10th day of last February. I endoavorcd to convince them that it would be expedient nnd wiso to leave to t'.ie re.-\ont,

power, an opportunity to see what advantageous arrangements of reciprocal trado could bo effected. I was unable to persuade the committee to tuke\jy view. I montlon this circumstance now because it has been charged In many quarters that the suggestion for reel procity catnc too late. In fact my ollort was made before the tariff bill was reported to the House or even framed in committee. "It is. I think, a very grave mistake to oppose this reciprocal proposition touching sugar from the fear that It may conflict in some way with the policy of protection. The danger is, I think, wholly In the opposite direction. Let us seo what is proposed: OuwGovornmont has heretofore collected a heavy duty from sugar, amounting in one year in the aggregate to 158.000,000 and averaging 150,300.000 per annum f» a considerable period. We wish now to cheapen sugar by removing the duty. The value of the sugar wo annually consume Is enormous. Shall we pay for it all in cash, or shnll we seek a reciprocal arrangement by which a large part of it may be paid for in pork and beef and Hour, ft lumber nnd salt and Iron, in shoes and calico and furniture, and a thousand other things? In short, shall we pay for it all in cash or. try friendly barter in part! I think the lr.tter mode Is tho highest form ol protection and the best wny to promote trade. "I address this nnte to you, as I did my first, because you have taken an active and most intelligcut intere-t in the increase of our trade with South America. When shall we enlarge our commercial intercourse with that great continent If we do not now make a beginning! II we now give away the duty on sugar (as we al ready have given away the duties on coffee and hides and rubber) aud get nothing in exchange which shall be protitable to the farm or factory in the United State", what shall be our justitlcation for the policy! "You have recently received congratulations —in which I cordially join—on carrying the shipping bill through the Senate. Do you not think that a Hue of ships generously aided by the Government will have better prospoct for profit and for permanence if we can give to them outward cargoes from the United States and not contlne them to inward cargoes from Latin-Amcrical I am sincerely yours,

JAMES G. LA RAX."

:.SI:N.\T!!.

WASHINGTON, .luly SO.—In the Senate Friday Nnalor (.ockrell (Mo.) presented a memorial from St. Louis, Mo., protesting against the passage by the Senate of tho Federal elections bill, and stating that the masses of the people were so "dazed with the enormity of the proposed outrage on the sanctity of the ballot" thoy had not yet formulated words in condemnation of it. Other memorials against tho bill wore presented from Adrian, Mich. The House bill on that subject was on motion of Senator Hoar (Mass.) referred to tho committee on privileges and olections.

Amendments were adopted to the bill, transferring tho rovonue-marino service to tho Navy Department, extending tho application of tho measure to the lifesaving service.

The Mclvinley tariil bill was taken up as unfinished business. Senator Vanco (N. C.) arraigned the Republican party for the evils which protection had brought on tho country. Quoting from Mr. Blaine's first lottor to Mr. FTye, he said that if it was important to extend American trade to Central and South America, it could not bo unimportant to oxtend it to tho European continent

Senator McPhorson (N. J.) Bald the newspapors were full of tho statement that tho Republican Senators did not intend to defond the bilL If it could not be defended it could not be passed. He moved, tbercforo, in order to expedite business, that tho bill be recommitted to the committee on flnanco with Instructions to report at tho earliest practicable moment a bill to reduce tho revenue and to equalize duties on imports on tho basis that tho average rate of duty should not exceed the average ad valorem war tariff rate of 1S0+. Senator Mcl'herson contended that manufacturers only wero benefited by tho bill, though the Republican party had always claimed to bo the friend of labor, lie would vote ample protection to American labor, but the labor cost ol the articles protected was not one-hali the amount of Ihe duty paid.

Senator Allison (la.) asked if Senator McPhorson was willing to have the duty on earthenware and glassware reduced 15 per cent bolow tho pending bill. Senator McPhorson said he would be willing to have it reduced 10 por cent Senator Allison said if tho Senator would move that reduction he would be found in sympathy with it

Senator Plumb (Kan.) expressed grave doubts as to the effect of the bill on the revenue. Enumerating tho expenditures for tho current, year ho said tho applications under tlio dependent pension bill would probably reach .500,000 within a year. Senator Berry (Ark.) suggosted that when the bill was before the Senate the number had been estimated at 250,000.

Senator Plumb said there might bo a deficit of S50,000,000 next year. Ho would propose a duty on incothes, an increased tax on alcoholic liquors, and amendments that would prevent the formation of trusts.

Senator Aldrich (R. I.) thought Senator Mcl'herson was not serious 16 his motion, and said if it wero carried out Into law tho efloct would bo to inorease the revenue by $110,000,000 over tho amount that will bo produced by tho ponding bill.

After somo further discussion and without action on Senator McPherson'e motion, which is pending, tho Senate acUourned.

HOUSE.

WASHINGTON, July 26.—Tho sundry service bill with Senate amendmonte was debated in the Houso Friday, the chief discussion being on tho subject ol tho appropriation for irrigation survey.

Mr. Breckinridge (Ky.) favored the Senato amendment which provides for the repoal of tho law for the selection and looutlon of reservoirs and canals upon tho public lands and the reservation of irrigable lands. Tho real question presented wa-s whether a territory so large, so cnpablo of culture, so full of promise, should belong to speculators or to the common people of all parts of tho country.

Sr. Cannon (III.) opposed tho Senate amendment If it were adopted II opened 30,000,000 acres, not only to homestead settlement but to the desert land, timber culture and pre-emption settlement, undor which any citizen could take up 1,200 aores of land. One aore of this land, upon which watei could bo obtained, w»a equal to at least throe acres of land in Illinois. If it were adopted all tho reservoir sites would bo opened under the homestead pre-emption, desert-land and timber culture laws.

AGAINST LOTTK11IKS.

WASHINGTON, July 20.—Tho House post-oClco committee has agreed upon a substitute bill in lieu of a numbor ol ponding bills adverse to lottories and ordered it to bo reported to tho House. The substitutes prohibits lottery circulars and tickets, lists of drawing, money or drafts for purchase of lottery tlckota or newspapers containing lottery advertisements or drawings from leing carried in tho mails or dolivorod by carriers.
