CANADIAN RECIPROCITY.
Definite Arrangements Made for Taksns
In the Subject Soon.

Dehnite Arrangements Made Tor Iba"i
Up the Subject soon.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Dehnite
arrangements have been made Tor
taking up the subject of reciprocity
treaty between the United States and
Canada, and to this end meetings have
been fixed between John. A. kasson.
who Is specially delegated by Presi-
dent Mckinley toconduct reciprocity
negotiations, and Sir Willard LaurieT.
the Canadian premier, and Sir Louis
Davies. minister of marine. This is
the result of the long and friendly
conference held yesterday between
Secretary Sherman and Sir Wilfred
L.aurier. The meeting will be held
during the present visit of the Cana
dian officials. but no exact time for
it has yet been fixed. as IL will depend
somewhat on the time which can be
spared from the Bering sea sessions.
The arrangements also contemplate
taking UP the question of border i'm
migration, north Atlantic fisheries,
lake fisheries and all other subjects af-
fecting the two countries. The meet
ing with Mr.. Kasson, however, will be
confined to reciprocity, as he is del
egated by the president to treat on
that subject alone.
1t is not expected that the reciproc-
ity treaty itself can be matured during
the present trip of the Canadian Of
ficials, the desire being to arrive at
some common understanding at this
time and then perfect the details later.
The dinner at the White House last
night assisted toward a friendly set
tlement of pending questions. There
were no toasts and no speeches at the
dinner, but at its conclusion the Ca
madam guests accompanied the presi-
dent and his cabinet advisers to the
blue room, where a wholly informal
and personal change of views occurred.
They were on the same friendly lines
as those of the formal conference be-
tween the secretary of state and Sir
Wilfrid earlier in the day and the gen
eral sentiment prevailed that the pres
ent time was opportune for more cor
dial intercourse between this country
and Canada.

The tOwbOat Dauntless, owned by
James Jones & Son, hit a pier of the
Union bridge at Pittsburg yesterday
morning and was completely demol-
ished She sunk in less time than it
takes to tell it, and turned upside down.
The crew had a miraculous escape from
drowning. Capt. Lew Clark, shore
boss for the firm, was at the wheel
when the accident occurred. The reg
ular pilots of the boat were at break
fast The accident is said to have been
caused by the breaking Of the tiller
rope The tiller rope is the cable at
tached to the rudders, which steers the
boat. The Dauntless was worth be-
tween $1,000 and $1,000, and was in
sured for $4,000 in the Dean & Sweitz-
er agency. The boat is a total wreck.
Several Of the crew had narrow escpaes,
the engineer sticking to his post until
the last minute.
The steamer Keystone State of the
Pittsburg and Cincinnati packet line,
reached the wharf during the morning
and brought an excellent trip. a long
stream of wagons kept going and COM
ing from the wharf all day. When bus
mess is good with the outgoing packets
it is always a good indication that the
general business situation is also good.
The keystone State will take a good
trip away from here. She did not have
any trouble on account of the high
water. The steamer Kanawha also ar
rived from the Ohio. The Ohio river
packets brought considerable produce
and butter and eggs. The hucksters
did not find an overly good market on
account of the break in the price of
eggs.-Pittsburg Paper.

CALDWELL'S RUN FEUD
Growing Out Of Land Quarrel Died in
Justice Shop.

Craving Out OF Land Quarrel Died in
Justice Shop.
A feud. modelled somewhat after the
celebrated Hatfeld-McCOy case, pre-
walls up Caldwell's run, but has not
attained the notoriety attached to that
famous border warfare for the reason
that this feud is only in its infant
stage and no blood has yet been sned,
nothing more serious having resulted
than threats to kill, etc.
Yesterday Frank and Joseph Gollner
were arrested by Constable Steve Will
COY upon three warrants sworn out
before Squire Rogers by Jasper Beal'
y neighbor. The evidence brought
ont during the trial showed that on
Sunday a big celebration took place
ND Caldwells run, just outside the city
limits A dozen or more kegs OF beer
are reported to have been consumed
during the festivities, which were en-
loved by a large crowd. When the
fun was al its height the Gollners are
said 10 have made their unwelcome ap-
pearanca and interrupted the enjoy
ment Of the occasion.
Nothing serious happened eXcept
that the Gollner brothers were charged
with breaking the peace that was pre-
yailing and that they shocked the en-
tire assemblage by using profane Ian
quage. Beal further charged the de-
PENDANTS with having threatened to
shoot him and otherwise do him bod
lily injury.
II seemed that a land dispute was
the primary cause of this and pre-
vious ouarrels which have been aired
in court. Beal is said to have sold
the Collner's a tract Of land and alsN
~ have given them a right-Of-way Of
road five feet in width across the
land Instead of coufning thmselves
within the prescribed territory they
distressed and Beal has complained
freouentlv of trespass. Dispute about
this matter has led to frequent quar-
rels and threats made between the par
ties Justice Rogers settled this par
ticnlar case by putting each of the
/ Collners under a 800 bond to keep
the peace for one year The third
charge of profanity against Joseph
Gollner was dismissed at the cost Of
Real.
