TARIFF BILL READY.

There VIII he No Canadian Reciprocity
-Canads's Mission Fruitless-
WASHINGTON, March l5.-Chairman
Dingley of the House ways and means
committee says that the new tariff
bill will be ready to be introduced in
the House Monday. The administra-
tive features have not yet been draft
ed, nor has the reciprocity scheme,
although the features of it are decided
upon. These may be presented as
committee amendments after the bill
gets befor. the House.
The no ,es of the new Canadian adj
ministratiOn for closer reciprocal rela-
tons will be defeated by the Dingley
bill. The Liberal party, under Laur-
ier's leadership, has made closer COM
mercial affiliations with the United
States one of its foremost policies, and
one OF the first acts of the administra-
ton was to send Cartwright and Davies
to Washington as commissioners to
pave the way for reciprocity. Their mis-
sion has proved a fruitless one, because
they desired to open the markets of
this country to the farm products of
Canada. In their interviews with
Chairman Dingley and other members
of the committee they were told, in
diplomatic terms, but emphatically,
that the design of the new tariff bill
would be to preserve the markets OF
the United States by adequate pro-
tective duties on all farm products.

Congress should promptly correct

WASHINGTON. March 1G-The Fifty.
fifth congress met in extraordinary
session at noon to-day, in pursuance of
President McKinley's proclamation
The work before 1.-THE passage Of q
tariff bills pretty we'll cut out in adj
vance, but the indications are that it
will be a stormy session, and its length
and scope are as yet mere matters Of
speculation.
So far as the house is concerned, the
present determination of the leaders
is to direct the energies of the lower
branch to the accomplishment of the
task before it with all expedition and
throw the responsibility for any COM
plications which may arise out of de-
lays in the senate upon that body.
The new tariff bill, upon which Re-
publican members Of the ways and
means committee have been working
laboriOusly for three months, was
formally introduced by Mr.. Dingley.
1t will be printed and submitted to the
Democratic minority and receive con-
sideratiOn by the full committee. 1t is
not expected this will require more
than three or four days at most.
although the Democrats may and
probably will, protest vigorously
against such expedition. At any rate,
the House leaders hope to enter upon
the consideration of the bill in the
House before the end of the week.
Some of them fixed Thursday as the
day on which the debate will probably
commence. Although the limits of the
debate have not yet been decided upon
the prevailing opinion is that it will
not last over ten days Night sessions
will, of course. be held throughout the
period allowed for debate. This will
give the new members an opportunity
to make set speeches for the benefit of
their constituents.
1t is by means of special orders that
the appropriation bills which failed to
receive Mr.. Cleveland's approval arc
to be put through at the extraordi-
nary session. Mr.. Cannon, the chair
man of the appropriations committee,
says the bills as they went to Mr..
Cleveland are all right. and he favOrs
their repassage under special rules,
without the formality of again putting
them through the regular channels.
This will be the plan followed. and all
the time before the actual debate on
the tariff begins will be devoted to the
appropriation bills.
Unless some unexpected hitch oc-
ours. the new tariff bill may be sent to
the Senate a week from next Satur-
day. or a fortnight after the session
opens.

There Is Continued Activity Ia the Va

New YORK, March 15.-Bradstreet's
says: Continued activity in various
industrial lines, based on an expanding
consumptive demand. fairly steady
prices for staples, further Improvement
in railway earnings and widespread
confidence that the volume of business
will expand materially in the near
future. constitute trade features of the
week. Spring demand has begun to
show itself with retailers. There is q
better inquiry for shoes, hats and
clothing, and for light hardware and
agricultural implements West and
Southwest. Industrial revival has
been offset in instances by the closing
of factories and mills, ana in others by
continued operation dependent upon
paying reduced wages"
