THERE MUST BE AN AGREEMENT
Otherwise It Is Not Probable That An Extra Session Will Be Called For An Indiscriminate Promulgation of
 Financial Theories.

calling an extra session, which could then be devoted to financial 1egisla- tion and such other pressing matters as the president might wish to bring to the attention of congress. But un- less the men who in senate and house will have to treat with the details of financial legislation can by conference reach some agreement this winter, then I do not believe that it would be wise to have an extra session.
 ''I am bitterly opposed to meeting of congress for debating-school pur-' poses.
 "We know who will be on the com mittee of finance in the senate. We have right to assume that the hold overs on the committee on banking aud currency of the house will be re- appointed unless promotions are given to them. There will be five vacancies on the house committee. If the speaker could satisfy his own mind as to the best men to select for these va cancies, and let these, with the hold overs, work in conjunction with the sound money men of the finance com mittee of the senate, good results might be reached.
 "I am not in favor of any financial legislation but good financial legisla- tion, and that l believe to be possible if the course that l have indicated is pursued"

OUR RELATIONS WITH CANADA
Fir. nasoR of Illinois on the Altitude
 Of Inc Senate.

Washington, Dec 7-Senator Mason of Illinois believes that the United States senate will ratify treaty with Canada embodying a fair exchange for the modification of our tariff rates.
 When such a measure comes before the senate" he said this morning, you will be astonished at the good feeling which will be developed there toward Canada Our friendship toward the British colony will be greater than ever before. It has grown warmer in our war with Spain. It is not so much what the English leaders were able to do or say during the war; it was the sympathy of the people themselves which impressed us most. Wherever Americans went during the war with Spain they found English subjects to rejoice with them over the successes of the American army. Subjects of other European nations were insulting in their bearing, but the frier dliness of the English people discouraged Euro pean alliances, which would have been antagonistic to our interests.
 "On that account the American peo- pie and therefore the American senate have lost 'thei &old jealousy of England and for that reason I am confident the English preferential will not stand in the way of ratification of treaty. l have yet been unable to discover where the preferential materially interfered with the American trade. It is only fair that the mother country should have an advantage in the trade with her colonies; but even with the prefer ential. Americans enjoy an equal ad- vantage with the English exporters. The preferential scarcely counterbal- ances the advantage of the low freights from the states.''
 There is one point, however, where Senator Mason says that the interest of his constituents must be observed. He will stand for the free admission of American manufacturers in Canada He says the people of Chicago will al- low him no other course. He will 1n- sist on that provision in treaty, ard adds that he does not believe a treaty

CANAL AND COAST.
A San Franciscan Pledges California s
 Support.

Washington, Dec. 7-Mr. Hugh Craig, president of the chamber of commerce of San Francisco, is here. His mission is in behalf of the asso- ciated mercantile interests of Califor- nia. What he says will interest Ari- zonians as well as Californians.
 We are going to give Senator Nor gan and the California delegation in congress all our best energies and ef- forts to assist in securing legislation for the construction of the Nicaragua canal" said MT. Craig today. That object mus. be attained. The inter ests in California demand relief from the incubus of one transcontinental line of railroad. In the last thirty years our growth has been phenome- nal, in spite of this drawback, and when that Is removed the growth will be stupendous. No stone wI.4 be left un- turned, 1 can assure you, in order to secure this object, and all senators and representatives will be personally urged to give it close attention.

Paris, Dec. 7.-There was no joint session of the peace commissions to- day as the Spaniards are still occu- pied in dranslating the American an- swer to their proposals in regard to the status of the Spanish subjects in the annexed territories. As cabled last evening eight principal articles of the treaty are settled and all that remains for the commissions to attend to is a settlement of the minor points of the treaty. The latter will probably be signed on Saturday next, for the Spaniards are as anxious as the Amer jeans to hpisa the work on hand.

TO INCREASE THE ARMY
Unexpected Opposition May Develop
 in Congress-.

Washington, Dec Tt looks now as if an unexpected opposition would ap- pear in congress to the legislation this winter necessary for the strengthening of the army. In spite of the fact that it is universally recognized that the regular army must be enlarged if the islands that have fallen into the hands of this government are to be garrisoned, It is apparent that the an tagonism to "a large standing army still exists in congress, and it appears that this antagonism will be joined to the hostility to the expansion policy in

St. Louis, Dec 7.-The tenement house at 172S Franklin avenue, occu- pied by eleven families, aggregating sixty persons, was set on fire by some one unknown before sunrise today and but for -Ie quickness of Claude Brown, a 12-year-old boy living next door, who alarmed the occupants, many lives would have been lost. The occupants of the building escaped in their night clothes. When the flames were finally extinguished it was discovered that the basement had been saturated with coal oil and set on fire.

Los Angeles, Dec. 1.-The careless handling of a lighted match by an em- ploye of the Standard Oil company caused fire this afternoon in the company's works which completely de stroyed their property, resulting in a loss of $1O0,000 There was no insur- ance. Shortly after loading his wagon from a benzine tank the driver lit his pipe and carelessly threw the lighted match on the ground. An explosion followed, the wagon caught fire and the frightened horses dashed from the place, not, however, until the flames had communicated to a 1000 gallon tank from which the benzine had been drawn.
