Senator Chandler on Reciprocity.

WASHINGTON, April z. = Senator
Chandler says that the first information
ne had had on the subject of the propo-
sition to establish reciprocity as an off
set to the propo sed duty on hides was
that which he obtained from reading
the United Press dispatch on the sub
ject.
tended consideration he said, land l
would not care to pass judgment upon
it without careful consideration. i
should be inclined to say, though, that
we could we'll afford to establish recip-
rocal relations with any of the countries
of the western hemisphere which would
adopt our tariff system and schedules.
81 am quite inclined to believe that
it would be wise to establish these rela-
tions with all the countries between the
borders of Canada and the Isthmus of
Panama. 1t would not be in any sense
an abandonment of any part of our sys-
tenn of protection and it would guaraI-
tee to us the almost exclusive trade of
these countries. In extending the boun-
diaries Of our tariff system along so
much more of coast line, we would of
course have to undertake the added re-
sponsibility of protecting ourselves from
but am inclined to think
that we would reap a great advantage
from the relation"

WASHINGTON, April THE state de-

easy of access are not at liberty TO say
anything for publication and Secretary
Blaine is not to be seen. All efforts to
find anything about the recent or pend
ing negotiations about the fisheries
questions or the seal fishery question in
Behring sea OF the reciprocity negotia-
tions with South American republics
have been futile. The state department
officials will not even admit that such
negotiations are in progress. They have
even gone SO far as to refuse to affirm
that Mr.. Charles Topper was in Wash
ington, when he could be seen any day
at the Arlington hotel, from which he
has made frequent visits to the resi-
dence of Secretary Blaine, half square
distant. In fact but little or no infor-
nation of public interest is given out
