Expectation Is That Senate Will Yield and That There Will Be Vote on Ca- | madian Reciprocity — Extra Session of Wool Schedules., | By ARTHUR W. DUNN. | Washington, Feb. 21.—[Special.]—it congress really expects an extra ses- sion the members are giving more time to clearing up the business of the session than is necessary. As usual in the closing days of a short session there has been a great deal more pressure, and extra hours are devoted to the work of getting through the appropriation bills. Not only are the supply bills rushed forward, but other business which the president thinks imperative has been put throngh the howse in order that there may be no reason for calling an extra session, but nevertheless the prediction of an extra session is made. although it has been learned that the president has not told any one he in- tended to call such a session if the Canadian reciprocity agreement did not reach a vote in the senate. ! Will the Senate Yield? | There has been much talk about the senate fhat the opponents of the agreement with Canada’ ‘would not permit a vote to be taken, but the sen ate has a way of coming down under | pressure, and if there was a real be- lief ‘that congress would be called back here soon after the present con- ' gress adjourned it is likely that there would he a vote. One reason why | taken and an extra | that there has been an intimation {from Democratic sources that in an extra session the wool schedule would ; have consideration before the Cana- dian agreement and might be made a part of that bill as an amendment. vote may be question too soon to suit the presi dent and the Republicans of the sen- ate and house. For that reason it may be expected that all differences about an extra session will be adjust- ed before March 4 Flattering, to Bailey. When Senator Bailey made the an- nouncement that he would make a speech on the Lorimer case he stated that he did not like to give such nd- tice, but he found that in order to get Many, senators gave notice several days ahead of their intention ‘to ad- dress the senate, and he would not have 2n opportunity to speak unless | he took «© s2me course. He © to have been very much | flattered with the result, ate has seldom been so crowded as on that occasion. Every seat was ta- | ken, and in the corridors Jeading to the | gallery doors were many people stand- | ing in line seeking an opportunity to hear the Texas senator. The debate, for such it became, was one of the notable events of the session. Divided Sentiment In Texas. Congressmen Burleson and Garner were discussing reciprocity, and it was. | found that they were divided on the subject. “l am against anything that hurts the farmer,” said Garner, “and I think this agreement is against him.” “J believe it would be a good thing to have even more concessioqis,” .said Burleson. “I would be in favor of | free trade with both Canada and Mex- ico.” Garner represents a district which borders for hundreds of miles on Mex- ico, and the sentiment of his people is against the admission of goods from that country in competition with their products. Kept the Publishers Busy. The proposition to increase the post- age on periodicals brought quite a large number ‘of publishers to Wash- ingtov to protest against it. and many hundreds more sent their protests by wire. Nothing has happened in a long | time to create quite so much commo- tion among the magazine men. While the proposition to increase the rates it never reached such a serious stage as in the ae days of the present congress: . | Wanted Quick Judicial Action.

Measure Will Pass Congress Unless Opponenis Talk It to Death—Quite a Number of Senators Who Are to Re- tire Will Get Government Berths. Planning For Vacations. By ARTHUR W. DUNN. Washingion, Feb. 22.— [Special.] — President Taft has been compared to | President Cleveland, and those who recollect the last administration of the last Democratic president are pointing out that just as Cleveland spiit his par- ty on the money question Taft is split- ting his party on the Canadian reci- procity question. Cleveland cansed the repeal of the silver purchase clause with a divided party and largely aided with Republic an votes. Taft will gain the ratifica- FRANK F. tion of the Canadian reciprocity agree- | ment if it is ratified with a divided party and the aid of Democratic votes. Nothing has come up in recent years which caused quite so much politica) discussion ¢ d showed such a wide di- | versity of opinion in the dominant par- | ty as this Canadian agreement. And what is quite surprising is the fact | that those who are for it are mighty | earnest and those who oppose it are equally outspoken. There is no half- way ground. Nor is it necessary for President Taft to lay the heavy hand of the national administration down te make votes for his pet proposition. | There are votes enough to pass it, and it is only a question whether the op- | have the nerve to talk it to death.

A Mississippi Historian. Probably the last contribution which Senator Money of Mississippi will make to the Congressional Record was his speech in favor of fortifying the Panama canal.

Congressman Campbell of Kansas, who made a losing fight to prevent the increased membership of the house, had admirers in the gallery. “He looks.” said one, “like a picture i of an old time British statesman.

No one was more pleased than Sena- tor Smith of Maryland to see Clarence W. Watson of West Virginia enter the senate. Senator Scott gracefully pre- sented the credentials of Watson and escorted him to the desk to be sworn ! in, but from that moment Senator ‘ .
