SummaryResumen
The newspaper reported that pending commercial treaties signed with Spain and the Dominican Republic were withdrawn for re-examination by the administration upon taking office, resulting in the conclusion that entering into such agreements was inexpedient. The publication noted that the treaties involved the United States surrendering large revenues for inadequate considerations on sugar alone, which would provide illusory relief to consumers while risking embarrassing questions under favored nations clauses. Additionally, the report stated that regulating tariffs by treaty would diminish the independent control over revenues essential for a government's safety and welfare.
El periódico consignó que los tratados comerciales pendientes de ratificación suscritos con España y la República Dominicana fueron retirados para su reexamen por el ejecutivo entrante, concluyéndose la improcedencia de formalizar dichos acuerdos. Subrayó la publicación que los instrumentos implicaban para los Estados Unidos la cesión de cuantiosos arbitrios fiscales sobre el renglón azucarero a cambio de contrapartidas desfavorables, lo que solo brindaría un ficticio beneficio al consumidor, amén de provocar enojosas discrepancias al amparo de las cláusulas de nación más favorecida. Además, fijar los aranceles mediante tratados menoscababa el libre e independiente arbitrio sobre las rentas, esencial para la seguridad y el bien común del Estado.

Spain to succor a languishing interest in

br a treaty of commerce
A similar treaty was afterwards signed
by the Dominican republic- Subsequent

majesty's government for a like mutual
extension of commercial Intercourse
with tbe British West Indian and Booth
American dspandeaeies bat without re

re-examlnation tbe treaties signed with
Spain and San Domingo, tben pending
Dei ore tne senate. The result bas been
to satisfy me of tbe Inexpediency of en
tering into engagements of this character
not covering tne enure tranio.
The treaties contemplated the surrender
by the United States of large revenues
for Inadequate considerations upon sugar
alone. Duties were surrendered to an
amount far exceeding all tbe advantages
offered in exchange for them. Were it
Intended to relieve our consumers, it
was evident that so long as exemption
but partially covered our importation,
such relief would be Illusory. To relin
quish a revenue so essential would be
highly improvident at a time when new
and large drains upon the treasury were
contemplated; moreover embarrassing
qestlons would bave arisen nnder the
favored nations clauses of
treaties with other nations.
As a further objection it is evident that
the tariff regulation by treaty diminishes
that independent control over its own
revenues, whlcb is essential for the
safety and welfare of any government
