RECIPROCAL TRADE.
Kasson, Laurier and Davies
Will Hold a Consultation.
THIS IS DEFINITELY ANNOUNCED
The Sealing Conferences Has Been Resum.
ed, With Proportions Presented by
the Representatives of Canada
and tho United stntas.

WASHINGTON Nov. 1s - Definite
preparations have been made for nego-
tiating a reciprocity treaty between the
United States and Canada Meetings
have been arranged between Hon. John
w. Kasson and Sir Wilfrid Laurier the
Canadian premier. and Sir Louis Davies,
minister Of marine. This is the result
of the long conference between Secre-
tary Sherman and Sir Wilfrid.
The questions of border immigration,
north Atlantic fisheries. lake fisheries
and all other subjects affecting the two
countries will be taken up soon. The
meeting with Mr.. Kasson. however. will
be confined to reciprocity. IL is not ex-
pected that the reciprocity treaty itself
can be matured during the present visit
of the Canadian officials. the desire be,
ing to arrive at some common UNDER
standing and perfect details later.
The dinner at the White House assist
ed toward friendly settlement Of
pending questions. At its conclusion
the guests accompanied the president
and his cabinet advisers to the blue
room, where an informal and personal
exchange of Views occurred. The gem
eral sentiment prevailed that the pres
ent time was opportune for more cor
dial intercourse between this country
and Canada.
1t is understood that the Canadian
officials believe the markets of the
United States and Canada are so c.osely
connected geographically that it is es-
sential that the countries look to each
other rather than to markets thousands
of miles distant and difficult of access.
The third session of the seal experts
was held at the state department yes
terday. all of the representatives OF the
United States. Canada and Great Brit
ain being present except Sir Wilfrid
Laurier.
During the conference a series OF
propositions was presented by the
American representatives covering the
number and habits OF the seals and
the extent to which the seal herd had
been reduced during the five years in
which the Paris award had been in
operation. In turn the British-Canadi-
an representatives presented counter
propositions covering their view of the
same subjects. These propositions diff
fered considerably. but were not sc
wide apart as to lead to the belief that
they could not be reconciled.
It was felt to be desirable to hold
no afternoon session, in order that the
two sets of propositions might be com
pared Later in the day the British
Canadians submitted some further
amendments to rhe American PROPOSE
tions. The propositions do not embod'
any diplomatic features, but are solel,
scientific as to the number. habits an'
destruction of the seals.
After the experts have reconcilet
their propositions. the diplomats vii
begin to consider the larger subject o
providing an adequate remedy agains
seal destruction. II is not expected
however. that this stage viii be reach
ed for some days.

CRUSADE is A FAILURE.
boston Reformers Attempt 90 Abolish
Rice Throwing at Weddings


Throwing rice at bridal couples inn
mediately after the ceremony viii con-
tinue to be in vogue in this country
An effort To stop the good old custom
has proved q failure. Nearly two years
ago the anti-rice crusade began in Bos-
Ton, and for a time the gelatine flakes
that were substituted were used almost
entirely. The chief argument against
rice was the danger that lay in the in
discriminate throwing of small. hard
PARTICLES. Serious accidents have re-
suited from il, a notable case being that
of a young woman in this city who got
one of the particles in her eye and lost
the sight of it, Another young woman
almost choked to death on rice which
stuck in her open mouth. Yet bridal
parties are showered with rice nova
days just as they have been for years.
The anti-riee agitation was short-lived,
and now that il has been crashed out
entirely. people seem 10 be trying to
make upfor the lapse by more elaborate
Indulgence IN the old custom.
AT recent. wedding breakfast in
y
is something of a practical joker, tried
braud-new device on the assembled
company. 1t was a paper bail filled
with rice, and it stood in the center of
the table,and was so completely COW
cred with flowers that il was not no
ticed by any of the guests. By an i'm
genious arrangement of springs, the
ball could be broken and the rice seat
tered in every direction by merely
touching an electric button which the
young man had fixed in the floor right
nnder his seat. At an opportune mo-
ment the joker set his machine or.
sprinkling everything on the table with
rice The rice bomb was a tremendous
success and the electrician has been
asked TO fix up similar bombs for a
half dozen weddings to take place
tmong his friends this winter.-Chi-

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 13-Bishop
Charles c. McCabe caused considerable
surprise among the members OF the
general missionary committee of the
Methodist church when he announced
that he had established an Alaska
mission. He said he had borrowed S400
and sent missionary into Alaska and
that the latter was now ministering to
the spiritual wants of the gold diggers.
He asked for $1,000 to enable him to
continue the work in Alaska. The re-
quest was referred to a special COM
mittee. as was also the request of
Bishop Newman. who asked that the
appropriation for the Chinese mission
Of California be increased from $1,000 to

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1S.-Now that
the yellow fever epidemic in this coun-
try has been brought practically to an
end by the appearance Of cold weather.
the Marine Hospital service is prepar-
ing to begin a post epidemic crusade
for the purpose OF preventing a recur-
renee of the contagion next year The
officials of the bureau will cooperate
with the health authorities Of the va
rious states affected in conducting a
thorough dsinfection OF the districts In
which the fever gained a foothold. The
cleansing of all infected cities will be
