WASHINGTON, Nov. l3.-Defnite ar

fixed between Hon. John A. Kasson,
who is specially delegated by President
Mckinley to conduct reciprocity nego-

Canadian premier, and Sir Louis Davies,
minister of marine. This is the result
of the long and friendly conference

Sir Wilfred. The meeting will be held

officials, but no exact time for 1t has

WASHINGTON. Nov. 16.-The attitude
u the administration towards the sub
iect Of reciprocity with Canada is
probably disclosed in the following
statement Of q government official:
1.-THE task Of the government would
be made easier if the statesmen in con-
gress would be controlled by the inter
ssts of the country at large. Some Of
them unfortunately confine their views

Chicago, Nov. ia special to The
Times Herald from Washington says:
Ratification of the Hawaiian annexa-
ton treaty by the United States senate
is assured. The administration has
made poll of that body and as a result
President Mckinley is satisfied that
more than two-thirds of the senators
will vote for ratification. t
- When tffe treaty was submitted= ITO
the senate on June l6 last, 81 members
were depended upon to cast their votes
in favor of the instrument, IL senators
were doubtful and u opposed to the
ratification.
Since that time the administration
has taken steps to ascertain the views
Of men who were then in doubt. AS a
result President Mckinley is depending
upon 81 members who will certainly
cast their votes in favor of the treaty,
with prospects of the addition of sew
eral votes TO this number.
In Shape for Prompt Action.
The treaty is in excellent shape for
prompt action. II was fully::considered
by the senate committee ON foreign re-
!ations, reported to the senate and
placed on the calendar with practically
the unanimous Endorsement of the COM
mittee. There were no votes cast
against it though Senators Turpie and
Daniel refrained from voting, because
they had not fully made up their minds
IS to what position they would take in
the matter.
1t is said to be the purpose of Chair
man Davis, at the first executive ses-
sion, to ask that day be fixed for TAX
