said that SO far as he could tell about all the
union carpenters in the city had left their tools

TALKING OF RECIPROCITY.
The Ways and Means Committee Can ID,
Nothing in Advance Of Treaty.

1t is understood that a reciprocity treaty with
Mexico is now about completed by the Secre-
tary of State and the representatives OF Mexico,
and the members Of the Senate committee on
foreign relations have been informed Of its
terms.
1t is expected by the party pilots that such
treaties will be entered into between the United
States and several of the American republics
The committee on ways and means is not
however, considering the proposition to put
provisions in the tariff bill for reciprocity.
Such proposition was made to some of the
republican members of the committee, the idea
advanced being to put provision in the bill
that certain imports from Mexico, Central and
South America may be admitted free of duty,
IN consideration of the removal by those coun-
tries OF the duty on certain exports from this
country.
The members of the committee replied
that this was matter to be dealt with by treaty
and not in tariff bill.
III treaties are negotiated and ratified il Is
believed that there will be difficulty in secur-
ing the necessary legislation with relation to
duties, but no provision for reciprocity will be
put in the law in advance of treaty.
1t is understood that the President, Secretary
Blaine aud Speaker Reed have had talk over
the general subject
