CANADA and AMERICA.
Meeting Of Joint High Commission
in Washington.

Washington, November 10. The Anglo
American joint high commission began
it's sessions here today. having adjourned
it's early session at Quebec to meet at
Washington after the elections. Lord
Herschell, former Lord Chancellor of
Great Britain. Sir Richard Cartwright,
Sir James S. Winters and Mr.. John
Charlton. NJ. p, were present represent
ing Great Britain and Canada.
The American members Of the commits
sion present were Senators Fairbanks of
Indiana and Faulkner of West Virginia;
Representative DlngIey of Maine. ex-Sec-
rotary John W. Foster and MIR. John A.
Kasson. The absentees today were Sir
Wilfrid Laurier. Sir Louis Davies and
Mr. T. j. Cool idge of Massachusetts.
The preliminary gathering today was
in the diplomatic room of the State De-
partment, where the commission was
welcomed by Secretary Hay, who accom-
panied the members to the White House,
where they were presented to the Presi-
dent. The business session followed at
the comission's quarters, i'll the Arling-
ton hOrel annex.
The meeting today was mainly for the
purpose of adopting the general plan OF
business to be followed here. The princi-,
pal topics are fixed by protocol and
comprise:
Bering sea seal fisher les; Atlantic and
Pacific coast tisheries; a-Canadian
boundary; Transportation of merchandise
in bond across the border; Alien labor
laws of the United States and Canada;
Mining rights in the Klondike and other
points; Reciprocity and tariff arrange
ments; Naval vessels on the great lakes;
New marking of the frontier line by land
and water; Extradition of criminals and
mutual wrecking and salvage arrange
mentS.
The commission did not hold an after
noop session, but committee consisting
of Lord Herschell and Richard CART
wright and Messrs. Dingley and kasson
was in session. Owing to Mr.. kasson's
official position as reciprocity commits
sioner and the prominence OF Mr.. Ding
ley in tariff affairs it was inferred that
this committee was working on the Ques-
ton of reciprocity. Sir Richard Cart
wright has long been identified with the
Canadian movement for reclpr city. 1he
presence of Lord Herschel would insure
attention to British interests in case OF a
reciprocity discussion, one of the main
factors thus far developed in the reciprooi-
ty discussion being as to differentials in
favor of Great Britain in the present
Canadian tariff
The commission will hold daily sessions
at which the work advanced to compile
tion by comm iJtees will be passed on.
One of the commissioners stated today
that until all the subjects had been dis
posed Of each one remained open. The
courtesies showered upon the commission
ers in Quebec are to be reciprocated here
by many social amenities.

Then they shot through the house of
Widow Mcintyre, who was taking care of
a sick daughter. The negroes in the fiat
hall district came running out and began
to shoot. They kept shooting until the
militia arrived. When the shooting began
many women and children ran to Captain
Butler of company for protection. As
far as known no person was struck by the
bullets. Things are in such state that

record at Washington. The governor de-
clines to discuss the movement to secure

There is reason to believe that the
Governor will have the vigorous support
Of Colonel Roosevelt, should he decide on
an active canvass for the position. 1t Is
said that the most cordial relations exist
between the two men, and that the first
telegram to reach Oyster Bay on election
night was from Governor Black, con-
graduating the GoVernor-elect on his
magnificent personal victory y

Stewart L. Woodford also have been men,

is not considered seriously by the
Governors friends in their calculations.
Mr.. Platt will be interviewed on the sub
jeet of Governor Blacks candidacy imme-
diately, and it is expected here that his
answer will be favorable. If it Is not
there Is likely to be party strife that may
develop seriously.
