Members Are Urged to Work for French Reciprocity Treaty. DETROIT, June 4—The sixth annual session ‘of the National Manufacturers of the United States was called to order this morning with an attendance of 250 busi- ness men representing the leading manu- facturing interests of the United States. Mayor William 8. Maybury welcomed the visitors to Detroit and President Theo-, dore C. Search responded to the Mayor's welcome. During the course of his re- marks he said that the great energy man- ifest in the United States was due to the public school system, by means of which the children of America were taught to think for themselves independently. Following the president’s address came the appointment of committees and then President Search read his annual report. Treasurer Scheiren reported the associa- tion to be in excellent cendition. The ex- penditures during the past year were $85.- 837, which were covered by receipts. The income from the Shanghai warehouse, which is maintained in China by the asso- clation for the purpose of exhibiting the products of the members, was $13.274, and the expenditures, $8400. Treasurer Schei- ren reported that $3300 had been raised as a fund to test the validity of the Russian sugar tax imposed by Secretary Gage, of which $200 has been expended.

Preliminary to_the discussion a letter was read from James Deering of Chicago, in which the writer advocated a policy of closer foreign trade relations and urged all members of the association to work for the ratification by the United States Senate of the French reciprocity treaty. Barker of New York said he had been working with Deering to get the different interests in the Senate to agree on the French treaty, but that there were so many imaginary objections that it was impossible to unify the opposing inter- ests. By combined work, however, he thought the treaty might be passed. A resolution was passed and referred to the resolutions committee urging Congress to adopt the French treaty. ‘The committee on patents and patent laws recommended that an international plan be established which would protect the American manufacturer in foreign markets.

ILABEL 35t Eilr puoer STATE SENDS ~ MEN TO MoDo Attorneys Go to Aid in Prosecuting the Lynchers. | Delicate Mission Ahead of | Judge Post and A. A. Moore Jr. i sy A Special Dispatch to The Cail SACRAMENTO, June i—Assistant Ate torney General C. N. Post and Deputy A. A, Mocre Jr. will leave to-morrow for Mo~ doc County in the interest of the prosecu- tion of the lynchers of Calvin Hall, his three sons and Daniel Yantis. The mis- sion of thé two attorneys is a delicate one. They realize that they are likely to encounter a publie sentiment not in sym- pathy with their object. The counties have on previous occasions shown their jealous regard for their own prerogatives and their opposition to what they comn- sider outside interference, and it is more than likely from statements which have emanated from Modee County within the past week that such a spirit will be en- countered there by the representatives of the Attorney General's office. But Judge Post is regarded by all who know him here as a tactful and courageous officer and doubtless he will do nothing which will arouse antagonism in Modoe County against the State Bureau, while at the same time he will not be swerved from his conception of his duty by any influ~ ences whatever. It will be the aim of Judge Post and his associate to ascertain the facts of the situation in Modoc County with respeet to the lynching; to become informed as to what efforts are being made by the local | officials to bring the culprits to justice, {and to lend what aid_they can in aceom- plishing this result. It may be that their efforts will be directed to no greater lengths than this; but,should it be neces- sary. to assert the authority of the State they will doubtless prove equal to the ta Nothing can be told now, however, as to what the two deputies of the Attorney General may be called upon to do. They hope for relations of perfect harmony with the local authorities and believe that they will be received in a friendly spirit by the people and officials of Modae. What their course will be will de largely upon conditions as they find them upon their arrival on the ground. RE-ELECTION OF BOARD NOW APPEARS CERTAIN Fate of the California Cured Fruit Association Will Be Decided To-Day. AN JOSE, June 4—The fate of the Czlifornia Cured Fruit Asseciation, the big combine of prune men, will be settled at apnual meeting to be held to-morrew in the Auditorium in this city. While there has been much eriticism of the association and President Bond's admin- istration, most of the growers realize that without organization and co-operation the prene industry will irretrievably suffer. This will cause many to vote for such plens as will continue the association and almost certain President Hond and directors will be re-elected. It is not because they like or are pleased with Bond's policy that the action will be taken, but because the growers fear the opposition candidates and believe the lat- ter would make the same mistakes that have occurred. The Packers’ Company will evidently come in for a scoring. President Bond and the packers are at outs, and any attack on the methods of the packers by him will be seconded by the growers. President Bond's annual report will be the firSt matter taken up. It will be ex- haustive and will give in detail the busi- ness transacted by the association during the year, the finarcial condition of the corporation and other facts of interest to the members. In the annual elecfion centers great in- terest. More than 1800 members or their representative ballots are required for a quorum. Up to the close of headquarters to-night, 830 Lallots had been received from members outside the county. It is exrecled fully 1000 growers of this county will be present in person. The opposition ticket. headed by J. H. Herry, has made a hard fight ‘l{nl( the old board of directors, but growers pre- dict an overwhelming defeat for it.
