RECIPROCITY TREATIES ARE IN GRAVE DANGER Little Chance of Their Being Ratified Before the Close of the Session. CALL HBPADQUARTERS, M8 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.—Notwithstanding the pressure the ad- ministration is applying to the Senate to effect a ratification of the pending reci- procity treaties, fears are entertained that the session will end without action upea them. The apathy that prevalls is due to In- terest being taken in the interoceanic ca- nal, subsidy and army reorganization bills and the fact that the friends of the State Department showing that the prin- cipal countries of Europe have had cus- toms commissions investigating the pres- ent commercial conditions. Until the Senate ratifies the French treaty the State Department does not in- tend to sign any more treaties, though it is understood several have been nego- tiated.

Hemenway, Well-Known Resident of Wintors. —_— a well-known citizen of Winters, died this morning at 8 o'clock. The cause of his decease was an abscess in his hip re- sulting from disorders induced by ex- posure and privation during the Civil ‘War. For some time previous b his death Mr. Hemenway had been staying at the home of his brother, D. L. Hemen- -way, where he had received the best of care and medical attention. Deceased had long been known and re- ted in Winters. He came to this place ut ffteen years ago and since that time had taken prominent part in many public affairs. r four years he served the people of Winters as Postmaster and proved to be an able and efficient officer. As a veteran of the Civil War he was al- Wways an_enthusiastic promoter of patri- otic . celebrations and it often been remarked that were it not for the efforts forty miles in an hour: Floyd M. the “nandicap King, and Joan Gomeaiis: the swift Frenchman. To offset these men’s brilllant rushes to the front the slower ones will have to use all the generalship at their command, and during the week there will be many an in- teresting moment. A man who falls is lost, for the pace probably will never drop below fourteen or fifteen miles an hour. Short er the start the men showed speed. e first lap was made with Elkes in the lead, followed by Stinson, Miller, Aronson, Gougoltz, Dubois and Turville, in the order named, with the rest well bunched. With the enthusiasm at fits height Gougoltz on the seventh lap broke into a wild sprint and gained thirty fee on Elkes.
