OUR TREATY WITH JAPAN. Outline of tlw FtotUIom of the Treaty —lth Japan Ayreed Upon by Secretary Greebnm and Minister Sblnlrhlo Karluo, and Which Now Awaits the Action of the Senate. Washington, Dec. 10.—The test of the proposed treaty with Japan which will come before the senate for consideration at the nest executive session bears out in all particulars the primary analysis sent out in these dispatches December ?. It is not a duplication of the British treaty entered into last July. On the contrary it contains a distinct assertion of the rights of Japan to regulate her own tariff relations with the United States, while the British treaty imposes rigid restrictions in the matter of the tariff with that country for several years to come. The most important features of the United States convention are contained in the protocol. This provides; "That one month after the exchange of the ratification of the treaty of commerce and navigation, signed this day, the import tariff now in operation in Japan in respect of goods and merchandise imported into Japan by citizens of the United States shall cease to be binding. From the saino date.the general statutory law of Japan shall be applicable to goods and merchandise, the growth, produce or manufacture of ithe territories of the United States on importation in Japan.

l ne operation or tins provision is made subject to the conditions of Article LX. of the treaty of 1854. This article is simply the customary “favored nation clause*’ and reads as follows: “It is agreed that if at any future time the government of Japan shall grant to anT other nation or nations privileges and advantages which are not herein granted to the United States and the citizens thereof, these same privileges and advantages shall be granted likewise to the United States. ' * This reservation does not seem in any way to retard the immediate operation of the protocol, so far us it affects the United States. The revision of tariff rates as provided for in the protocol is made subject to articles XIV. and XVII. of the chain body of the proposed treaty to which it is an appendix. The provisions of the main treaty, which include the abandonment by the United States of the right to exercise extra territorial jurisdiction, by means of consular courts, over offenses committed by American residents against Japanese laws, are to go into operation on the 17th day of July, 1899, and shall remain in force for the period of twelve years from that date. The important tariff autonomy provisions of the protocol, as already stated, are to go into effect one month from the ratification of the treaty. The third section of the protocol reads as follows: “The undersigned plenipotentiaries have agreed that this protocol shall be submitted to the two high contracting parties at the same time as the treaty of commerce and navigation signed this day, and that when the said treaty is ratified the agreement containedin the protocol shall also equally be considered as approved without the necessity of a further formal ratification. It is agreed that this protocol shall terminate at the same time the said treaty ceases to be binding.” The proposed treaty bears date Washington, November 22, 1894, and is signed by Secretary Gresham and Shinichio Kurino, the Japanese minister.
