SummaryResumen

The *New Orleans Republican* reported in September 1876 that France, Brazil, Costa Rica, Bolivia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Hayti, Honduras, New Granada, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru, San Salvador, Venezuela, and Italy held treaties entitling them to the same commercial and navigation privileges as Hawaii under mutual favored-nation clauses. A congressional memorial presented in May by the Louisiana, South Carolina, and Georgia delegations noted that these countries produce sugar and, in eight cases, rice, which they could demand to enter duty-free. Additionally, the committee warned that the treaty would unfairly favor San Francisco over Atlantic ports due to significantly lower freight rates.

El *New Orleans Republican* consignó en septiembre de 1876 que Francia, Brasil, Costa Rica, Bolivia, la República Dominicana, Ecuador, Guatemala, Haití, Honduras, Nueva Granada, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Perú, San Salvador, Venezuela e Italia mantenían tratados que les conferían iguales prerrogativas comerciales y de navegación que a Hawái bajo cláusulas mutuas de nación más favorecida. Un memorial elevado al Congreso en mayo por las delegaciones de Luisiana, Carolina del Sur y Georgia advertía de que estos países producían azúcar y, en ocho de ellos, arroz, cuya entrada libre de derechos podían exigir. Asimismo, la comisión alertó de que el tratado beneficiaría injustamente a San Francisco respecto a los puertos del Atlántico debido a fletes ostensiblemente más reducidos.
