charge higher import duties on pro

ducts of the other than were imposed

nponlike products from any other coun

try Importers claim exemption irom

duty for certain sugars and other pro

ducts imported by them from San Do

mingo upon the grounds that the

articles were of such character that

had they been Imported from Haw ii

they would have been admitted free of

duty under the treaty between the

United States and Hawaii and the not

of August 15 1876 enforcing that

treaty

The UmtedStatea government main

tains that the treaty with the Hawaiian

Islands was not a mere reciprocity

treaty but was in suGataaco a commer

cial contract by virtue of which Hawaii

pays valuable consideration for the ad

mission1 of certain jnerchandise to

points of the United States The coun

be at liberty to shut out American man

ufacturea and products from their ports

without giving us any cause

for complaint for the violation of ex

bIting treaties pledging the United

States equality there with all other

nations This they say would upset

nearly all our existing commercial

treaties iiith foreign powers
