will remain so long as tho United

ment by which this taiiff is nltered.
Flour was placed on tho free list at tho
special request of the United States.
'The instructions given to the com
missioners for tho revision of our treaty
of commerce aru such that the interests
of American trade in China will not in
any way bo sacrificed, and tho duty
