Canton by the President-EIect.
CHICAGO, Jan. 27.-Lyman J. Gage

hnancier, who has been offered the
PORTFOLIO Of the treasury, went in an
sWer to telegram from President-elect
Mckinley asking him to come to Cam

der Of the secretaryship Of the treasury
to the Chicagoan, Mr.. Mckinley nat
urally wishes to discuss with him mat
ters Of policy.
1t is known Mr.. Gage has been max
Ing arrangements to close up his af-
fairs in Chicago in order to be free to
take position in the presidents cab
1net. 1t will be necessary for him to
relinquish all connection with the First
National bank, and it was a matter Of
common knowledge about the bank to-
day that he had begun to shape his
business to retire from that institu-
ton to go to Washington. Mr.. Gage
left at 11:30 o'clock and is due in Can
ton at 1:20 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
There is nothing to be said about
my trip except that L am going down
to Canton to have a talk with Maj.
Mckinley in response to an invitation
from him." said Mr.. Gage, just before
leaving for Canton. '"The matter Is
still open, and Maj. Mckinley is still
as free as the day after election to Sc
lect any one he chooses for secretary
Of the treasury. He has asked me to
talk over matters with him, that is all.
1t is his duty to act cautiously and
to convince himself he is not making a
mistake.

TREATY CONSIDERED.
No Conclusion Reached by the Sem
ate Committee.

ate Committee.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The senate
committee on foreign relations had the
arbitration treaty under consideration
for an hour and a half again today,
but failed to reach a conclusion. The
committee adjourned to meet again
Saturday, when it is hoped that the
senate will not be in session, and the
committee can give the entire day to
the treaty. The meeting today was
attended by all the members Of the
committee, and the discussion was very
earnest. The necessity of guarding the
treaty so as to prevent encroachment
under any preteXt whatever upon the
Monroe doctrine, was again the princi-
pal topic, the special point of contro-
versy being the feasibility of prevent
ing such encrOachment by an amend
ment. The point was unsettled when
the committee adjourned, but the belief
was expressed that a conclusion might
be reached at the Saturday meeting.
An amendment was offered, which it Is be-
lieved will fully protect all the rights Of the
United States under the Monroe doctrine,
and also American rights in connection with
the Nicaraguan canal and the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty, but it's terms were not made public.
Another amendment offered covers the fea-
tuTe of providing for the selection Of King
Oscar Of Sweden and Norway as umpire. This
provision Of the treaty is receiving very care
that an amendment will be adopted changing
the provision. 1t is possible that the clause
may be stricken out or that the arbitration
commission may be empowered to choose it's
own umpire whenever occasion arises where
deciding vote may be necessary. Members
of the committee who criticize this portion of
the treaty say they find that the relationship
between Great Britain and Sweden is a very
close one, and that they have discovered
also that an alliance exists between Great
Britain and France in which the two former
protect
kingdom ''by force Of arms" if occasion re-
quires such display on their part This
agreement they consider shows relationship
too close to justify the United States in ac-
ceptfng the ruler of one of the countries to
the alliance as arbiter in a dispute with one Of
the other parties to it,

SECTION CREW KILLED,
Five Men Run Down by Freight
Train in Connecticut

SOUTH NORWALK, Conn. Jan. q.
the worst accident of it's kind that
ever occurred in this section took place
shortly before o'clock this afternoon
on the tracks of the New York. New
Haven & Hudson railway, near the
East Norwalk station. Five men, en-
gagged in work upon the roadbed, in
trying to avoid an approaching ex-
press, stepped directly in front Of a
local freight running in the same di-
rectiOn as the express. Four of the
men were instantly killed and the fifth
died five minutes after the accident.
The dead are:
JAMES POWERS, of South Norwalk. sec
tion foreman, married.
JOHN GRIFFIN, of East Norwalk, section
hand, married.
JOHN SHEA.
MICHAEL SPLEEN, section hand
ITALIAN LABORER, name unknown
It is supposed that the men did not
notice the approach of the freisht
train, because Of the clouds of smoke
and steam in the wake of the express.
The five men were struck simuitane-
Ously, as they stood grouped together.
Fragments of their bodies were scat
tered along the tracks. OF the five
victims all but Shea died instantly.
The head of Foreman Powers was
nearly severed from the body, and the
bodies of the other victims were hor-
ribly mutilated.

was not aware of any such agreement,
and a great deal Of this talk is without
foundation"
The 1920 Fort Wayne train brought
Col. William Osborne, Of Boston, and
Col. John Hay, who was President
Lincoln's private secretary. They were
met at the depot by Messrs. Cooper
and Floyd, and driven to the Mckinley
home. Here they entered into imme-
diate consultation with the president
elect and Mr.. Hanna. Mr.. Hays name
has frequently been associated with
appointment to some important for
eign ministry, and it is believed his
visit to this city in company with Gen.
Osborne is to talk over this matter
with Mr.. Mckinley and Mr.. Hanna.
They had lunch together and Gen. Hay
left at 2:05 for the East. There were
a number of callers at the Mckinley
residence this morning, but none were
Of special prominence, aside from the
two mentioned above. All were told
the conference between the former
gentlemen would be Of some length,
and that a later call would probably
be more satisfactory.
Col. Hay was seen at the Fort Wayne
depot prior to his departure for Wash
ington. He said he was not in Can
ton on any personal matters. nor to
talk about cabinet affairs, but to see

declined to reveal who that some one

CROOKSTON. Minn., Jan. 27.-There has
been a good deal of excitement In lumber
ing circles here as to what would be the out
come Of Maj. Baldwin's crusade against the
pine land investigation. The recent rulings of
the land department forbidding the further
sale of Chippewa pine lands, and ordering
previous purchasers to show cause why their
purchases should not be set aside, have led
up to a practical dscontinuance of logging
operations by a number OF the heaviest pur-
chasers, who had already cut quantity Of

Need More Revenues.

BISMARCK, N. D., JAM 27.-Members of
the legislature and state officials are endeav-
ing to devise means to increase the revenues
of the state, which under the constitutional
limitations, have thus far proved inadequate
to meet expenses. To this end the enactment
of law to collect delinquent taxes will be
companies, railroad and elevator properties,
and probably the adoption of a memorial to
congress for the amendment of the organic
lands at less price than $40 per acre, the
present minimum price, which practically
keeps large section of public lands out of
the market, and taking preliminary steps for
amending the state constitution to the same
effect.

Details Decided on by the Wife of
the President-EIect

CHICAGO, Jan. 27.-Details of the in
auguration gown Of Mrs. Mckinley
were finally decided on today. The
material for the gown has been select
ed. but not cut from the piece. It is
brocade Of silver and white, the COM
blnaibion producing sort of gray color.
1t will be lined with pale blue satin
The gown is to be made rather plain.

will be made high with soft laces, yet
it will have the decollette effect. The

in the inauguration outfit and the de-
tails Of the other dresses have not been
fully decided on.
