enters the city of New York.

The next reciprocity arrangements to be

announced will be with the republic of San

Domingo and the United States of Vene

zuela. The representative of the Dominican

republic, Seuor Galvan, who negotiated the

reciprocity treaty of 1884 is here and has had

several conferences with Secretary Blaine.

Tne little black republic is anxious to pro

mote tbe friendliest relations with this coun

try and Senor Galvan seems willing to offer

us very favorable terms. The entire trade of

San Domingo is not of supreme importance,

but the Uuued States could probably easily

obtain more than her present share under a

favorable reciprocity arrangement.

There have been some domestic difficulties

in Venezuela which have made progress a

little slow in tbe negotiation of an arrange

ment with that country, but the people at

tbe state department are confident that an

arrangement will soon be well under way.

Tbe president of tbe republic has com

municated to the Congress the propositions

of Secretary Blaine, and there is a wholesome

fear of having the duty imposed upon coffee

at the beginning of next year if no agreement

is made in the meantime. Our imports of

coffee from Venezuela during tbe fiscal year

1890 reached a value of $9,662,207, making

her the most formidable competitor of

Brazil, from whom we purchased $45,664,127

worth.
