The Canadian reciprocity agents now in Washington in consultstion with Secretary Blaine and Gen. Foster appear to be very much in earnest. They are losing no time Whatever and are pressing these preliminary | day, the Secretary immediately admitted the four negotiators and began the third session of the series. Yesterday's meeting lasted ueurly two hours. A POLITICAL Morr. With all this activity on the partof the Canadians thero are those in govermenta! cir- cles who do not hesitate to question their | leged, strong popular de- for an open market for the in- terchange of commodities, and the free trade tendencies of the home government, it is | further thought, are urgently bent to secure | at least a show of victory against the preva- lent American system. However, this view does not wholly prevail, and others are of the opinion that Canada is really asking for some- thing she really wants. NO RECIPROCITY TREATY LIKELY. On the other hand it is ‘inetly felt in the inner circles of this government that she won't get it, Those best informed on the subjectare of the view that there is too little of ad for the United States in such an arra as is proposed to agree toa reciprocity whereby the gain must necessarily be on Can ada’sside and there would be given vastly in- creased opportunities for the fraudulent entry of British goods into the United States. Yet it is not felt that the discussion of the question at length at this time is wholly use- less, for aside trom the advantage that may be gained in the prestige of having been willing to negotiate, Secretary Blaine will have in bis hands a weapon that can be used to good effect in other controversies, notably that over the Bering sea DELAY IN THE BERING SEA CASE. ‘There is a strange contrast in the British at- titude in these two cases, On the subject of reciprocity the commissioners are all eager- ness and zeal, utilizing every moment offered and pressing the question with what to some pears useless force. ‘On the other band the Bering sea discussion, thongh in reality a matter demanding imme- diate settlement, is allowed to drag along at even less than the regulation rate of diplomacy while the date for the wailing of the Pucitic sealing fleet is approaching. The contrast thus Presented is being moral- ized upon in the departments as au object Jesson of Eng!and’s indifference to the American view of the Bering sea case. ‘The natural course of diplomatic events will probably be £0 slow as to require a renewal of the objectionable and cumbersome temporary measure for the prot tion of the seal, the modus vivendi which bos prove:. to be very inadequate.

THE TREATY ON ITS Wat, The treaty that is to form the basis for the coming arbitation of the question is now on its way to London, and as soon as it receives the approval of Lord Solisbury it will probably be sent to the Senate for ratification.

THE SILVER MEN, ‘They Are Working for an Early Cousidera- tion of the Bland BILL. The silver men have some eight or ten peti- tions in circulation on the democratic side of the House urging that the silver bill be made a special continuing order, and, it is said, had arly today secured about 100 signatures. There are some doubts entertained as to the expediency of the petition movement but the silver men mostly believe that it may advance considera- tion of the bill, and are doing what they can to bring the matter to an issue early in the ses- sion. The resolution introduced by Mr. Bland the day he reported the bill fixed February 17, which is next Wednesday, as the day on which the silver _ bill should be taken up, but it is not expected by the silver men that they will succeed in getting it up so early, and they will probably be con- tent if by that time an order can be secured naming a later day or which the bill shall be taken up. There is very earnest work being done on both sides of this question, but at the present time it is in a quiet anti-silver men are urging delay and are work- ing to that end in the hope that there may be developments which ‘aid their cause and enable them to find some way out of the difti- culty. ‘The free coinage men are in favor of speedy action, and say that on grounds alone, aside from the monetary prin- ciple involved, the sooner the issue is met the better.
