 May He Dismissed In open Session.
 WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-After removing the injunction of secrecy from the fisheries treaty to-day the Senate debated for more than an hour the policy of having the treaty considered with open doors. So radical a departure from time honored precedents awakes bitter opposition, but there have been number of influential converts to the open session movement since the late action on the British extradition treaty, and sena- tors who have never before favored the movement now openly declare that they can no longer endure the present conditions and predict that the secret sessions except where affirm atiye reason exists for secrecy will not last three months longer. The Senate ad iourned without action to-day, but enough was said to show that majority of senators are in favor of dismissing this treaty at least with open doors.
