THE SPANISH TREATY.

Secretary FrdiKhyseu in a latter writ ten ytwterday to Hon. John K. Miller, Chairman of the Scaate Committee on Foreign Relation, respecting; the treaty, says: The Convention now before yon In Its po lltical ai4.-t Is of Importance. Rome have thought that there Is a deposition In the rutted tnte looking to tho annexation or Cuba. JHCh action would be unwise for reaon which are apparent te your Com nilttee, for, even could It tie aeeompllshed by general oohhviu, our Institutions would be cnaeitdeied by thlHlwglnnlngorncoloiilal system, or by an !ncorioratlon Intoour body politic ot a largo population not in en. tire sympathy w,th our governmental aims and method. The treaty removes the chum ot complaint an to the, treatment ot our ritisena and rhi-ir property In Cuba and Porto ltlco, which have heretofore led to serious dlecumdou between the two governments, and by brinylm; the Islands Into close commercial connection with the United Statei, confers upon us and upon them all bcni-llti which would result irotn annexation, were that possible. The convention with Slaln Is one of tu series of International eiiKagomentH, follow ing the reciprocity treaty witu Mexico, It nneim tlm liiarketH of Ci 'uha and I'orto ltlco to mir nroitucts. The treatv with anto J)oniliiK(K))L'iiM those of that Republic, and tno pending hckouhuohh wnu uemrai .liner, lea and with Colombia tend to the fame ob Joct. In connection with these, tlie treaty wiin.MearaKua ior me umairucviuii m u Inter-ocuHnk canal, while brlmtlntf the moat di.-tuut partaot our own rountry Into closer relations, opens the markets of tho west coast or South America to our trade, and gives us at our doors u cu.-tomcr able to ul(corh a larjK-e portion pf those- articles which we product-, in return ior prouncis wmeu we cannot profitably raltte. The Secretary then refcra to the ob jections made, to thu Spanish Convention ksiouows: it u said that we therein el Vo tin a revenue on sugar from twenty-five to thirty-nva mil lions oi uonarss in reiurn mr rwiuuuuii m duties upon our products Imported Into Cuba ami Port Kico estinmted on the Imxla of the existing trattlo at from throe to five million. The relinquishment of revenue, when for the public , good. , is In the line of the National policy. Hitherto It was done In the enae of tea ahd coffee, which by the wet of May Int, Wi, were piaceu upon the free-lint without any attempt to obtain therefor any equivalent whatever, and soleij m oueiitent'o io me jHnniiiti ueiiiitiu. mr "free brtHkfust table." us this measure the Treasury of tho United State haa lo,.t during the last twelve years revenue ui mime m,otw.ooo on toffee alone; and beslilee, let us not forget that I'razil availed itself ot the action of thltf Covernmcnt to linpoac an export tax upon coffee, which deprived tho people of THIS COUUirv HI llic winni-ui jui miiu ieauction. Article 5 of this convention prevents Hlmllar action by Spain. The treaty now under consideration tends to cheapen the cost of thu necessaries of life by reducing tno cost oi a siapie or dally consumption, oi which we are obliged to import eaeii year neany one hundred millions lu valuu to make up for the Inadequate production oi our own sou, whli-li uinountw to only about twelve per cent, of tho whole coiwumptloil, and at tho Kama time we eccuro a crowing market for our product in tno &pannii .nuue coupted with especial privilege to our merchant marine. I Is alo aaid tliat the tmiMmiuion oi tree sugar irom Cuba and Porto Uieo, when added to our domestic production and to the Importation from the t-amlwleh lHlandr will fall uimrt rf the miuntltv needed for home con. amnp'lon, and irlces wdl bo rulcHl by that of tno port rcmainiK name " uuiy, mihmhiio nroflt from tne removal of duty will ko to the Cuban and Porto ltlco planter and not to the consumer In this country " tlil.-t arKtiment ue true, tne treaty win not nfi'f-t ilit tirsre of sukar in UmUdana..

Au-uin. the i.rivilfued introduction of to bacco at reduced duties haa been objected to aa reducing the revenue ami removing protection from the American product and manufacture. As to this, It neems enough to any that the ons'eutloii leave a discrimination against the Imported article of from lour to five times the Internal revenue duties on the American product, ami secure a market hitherto denied for the special manu factures of toimceo in which we .!

RANDALL AT LOU It VILLE.

Randall, oa his Southern tour, reached thin city Buuday evening at 7:S0 o'clock, lie spent the night (Uiutiy Kt the suburban home ot the Hon. Osoar Turner. Yesterday morning he breakfasted at thu residence ot John IC. Green. President of the Hoard ot Trade, lu com pany with ICplsooiai Bishop Dudley, Coin. mlssloucr Alliert rink, General Basil Duke and others. Mr. Ihtudall was cxiraotedat the Hoard ot Trade Building at noon, aud ludf au hour earlier the place was packed. The crowd cheered and chaffed away more than au hour before Mr. Kamlall climbed,, as was nucesmry on account of tho jam,, through a window of the coniniltteerooiu. to the Speaker's stand, lie was accompanied by President Green, Congressman McAdoo and others. Mr. Green read an address of welcome. Mr. Kandail, lu answering, said ho had come to study thu business relations ot thu South. Speaking of thu present business depression, he pointed out that, unllko the panics ot 1837, 1857 and 1878.. allot which were preceded by from seven to ton years of Imlauce ol trade against us, this had been preceded by nine years, of groat prosperity with the balance of trade In our favor, aggregating $1,800,000,000. The cause, he said, Is overexhaustive taxation, and to some extent tradu restrictions which ought to be swept away. Tho Government," lie continued, "should be administered economically, aud there ought not be collected a dollar of revenue from the people of the United States lu excess of that which Is neces sary to economically administer tho Govcruinentof tho people." Cheers. 11c urged that a Government could not be run on theory. Business principles must be applied. Ho was glad to See the South coni-Kitlng with tho North lu manufactures, and uuwilllng to see both sections the victims of foreign low labor and foreign low interest. lie was followed iu a short speech by Mr. McAdoo. After dinner at tho Tendonitis Club, Mr. Jtatuhill received a few friends quite Informally. At eight o'clock LIcderkranz Hall, svith a scatltig ciaelty of about 2,500, was crowded to suffocation, and hundreds svere turned away. The meeting wits a gratie ovation. Kx-Govcruor Blackburn called It to order. yice-I'resldents, including the wealthiest and most progressive citizens, were chosen. As Mr. lhtudall came lu on tho arm oi Mayor Jacob, he was greeted with a roar ol applause. A brief svolcomo by ex-Gov-cmor Blackburn was followed by a Ultymlnutes' speech by Mr. Handall aud iitteeu-minutes by Mr. McAdoo. Mr. l.andall insisted that the $i!3C 0O0 locked tin in the Treasury without any claim against it should be put into the business channels of the country, aud, all laws repealed tliat produce this excessive revcuue. Internal taxation, odious in Kiig.aud, svhence It comes, i Is muck more so under a free Government. All taxes for Government expensesshould be collected by import duties. There could be no free trade between this and another country which would not lower wages and bring disaster snd.shrlnkage. The doctrine that Internal revenue should cease to .bo levied after the svar needs are met, Is Democratic from the times of Jefferson and Mouroe. THE HATTER'S LOCK-OUT. llclp from Abroad for the IDterlHlnetl, Striker. Xi;w York, December 20. The New York l'rotcctlvo Association scut its Board of Arbitration and Strikesto Norwalk yesterday a week ago to try aud bring about an arbitraltou betwecit. the employers aud the locked-out men. The Board visited all the hat manufactories engaged in the lockout, and each. denletl that his intention was TO DKSTROY TUB UXIOK. At the same time the employers refused to accede to any arbitration, although the locked-out men agree to any honorahlt!means ot arbitrating the question. TheBoard made this report at a special meeting of tho l'rotective Association held yesterday forenoon, whereupon $5,000' were sent to the Norwalk svorkingmcn, and a levy of $10,000 a week was ordered for the duration of tho lock-out. Tho sale ot halsnrnde by the Norwalk manufacturers Is to bo diminished by a system ot boycotting.One of the members of the Board oL Arbitration, in speaking of the scenes lu. Norwalk, said the city was perfectly quiet, and tho men peaceable yqt determined. Thu girls stood by the men and refused to lb limi.iinien men. The low wages paid to the girls had forced a , mother to ask one of the employers whether the latter wanted to force the girls to A UVK OF 8IUMK. "If the girls can not get decent wages," she told him, "they can not live decent lives." The employers have issued a new circular In which they give the following eight reasons for having ordered the lockout: 1. That tho union had retarded thr growth of factories in tho town. 2, That it had resisted the introduction Of laborsaving machinery. 8. That it had. refused to let the men work in teams. 4. Tliat It refused to allow the employers to keep as many apprentices as they chose. 5. That it obliged the employers to pay exorbitant wages to some of their men, simply because tho latter were members ot the union. 6. That tho union did not abide by iti own rules whenever it found it more convenient tobreak them. 7. That it refused to allow employers to hire their mcnby the week,, and 8. That it obliged tho employers to retain incompetent men in their employ;, all ot which the Jocked-out working. deny.
