EXTRA SESSION PROBABLE.
HAWAIIAN AND OTHER MATTERS
NECESSITATE 1T.
Army and Navy Bills, Nicaragua Ca
nal, Peace Treaty, Eagan Scandal
Seem to Make 1t Inevitable.

NEW YORK, January 16.-The
Washington correspondent of the Her
aid telegraphs No army legislation
during the present session of congress
will mean an extra session of the Fif-
ty-sixth congress to secure legislation
to enable the President to muster out
the volunteers and garrison the home
and colonial posts with regulars. This
statement was made to me today by a
prominent member of the administra
tion who said that whether the peace
treaty should be ratified during this
session or not there would have to be
army legislation if an extra session of
congress was to be avoided.
The danger of failure to pass the
army reorganization bill lies in the sem
ate, where it's opponents may prolong
the debate until the end of the session
in order to defeat it. They will be aid
ed in carrying out this program by the
discussion of the Eagan scandal and
by the great pressure of other business
in the senate. The peace treaty will
take considerable time, especially as
it's opponents, who are practically the
same men as oppose the army bill, will
employ dilatory tactics on both meas
ureS. The Nicaragua canal bill is now
unfinished business before the senate,
and will probably continue to be for
at least another week The great ap-
| preparation DlllS are nearly all unact-
| ed upon. The bill to establish the ter
ritorial government of Hawaii has not
| yet been considered. The navy person
/ mel bill will probably take some time,
and the usual number of miscellaneous
| measures of all kinds will be pressed
| for attention. In view of this situation
| if the opponents of the army bill are
| determined to prevent action during
the remaining six weeks of the session
| they will be able to do so.
An extra session of congress will al
so be inevitable if the present senate
| should fail to ratify the treaty. Friends
of the treaty declare there is no doubt
of ratification If a vote can be reach
ed, but opponents of ratification are
asserting tonight that they will have
not less than 81 votes. Should it be
developed that more than a third OF
the senators are opposed to the treaty
it's supporters will not allow it to come
| to a vote this session.

JAMES CREELNAN CALLS
FAMOUS WRITER A PASSENGER
FOR MANILA.
Sees the President and Other Promi-
nent People-Will Write of Hawaii -
Has a Record.

James Creelman, the noted newspa-
per correspondent is a through pas
senger by the Doric for Manila and
Europe. This is his second visit to
Honolulu.
This morning was spent in looking
over the city and meeting prominent
people. At IL o'clock he was received
chamber. At the time he also met
Minister Cooper and Attorney General
Smith. He was introduced by Frank
Austin, brother of Auditor II. c. Aus
tin, who also arrived by the steamer
last night.
After brief interview and a look
over the government buildings, Attor-
ney General Smith, Auditor Austin and
his coast brother accompanied Mr..
Creelman on drive about town. They
had a double seated open carriage.
Following the drive the party had
lunch at Sans Souci.
Mr.. Creelman is an interesting man
of some 45 years of age. He is tall.
rather large and wears beard with Il
Frenchy point to it. An unassuming
manner suggests some of the traits of
Joaquin Miller or a man who would
ride walk or crawl to get there" and
enjoy it either way There is a bears
of clear cut intellect and judgment in
his face that is not lost
The Japanese Chinese war brought
Creelman before the world At Port
Arthur he openely charged cruelty
crime and murder to the Japanese con
querors. He was writing for the EX-
aminer-Journal syndicate. Other war
correspondents denied the stories of
Creelman, but a subsequent suspicion
that they We're subsidized by the the
Japanese government killed the effect
of their protests.
Creelman was in the Levant at the
time of the Turkish war, and
was in Cuba during the last campaign
He ascended San Juan hill, was at f
Caney and marched into Santiago with
the victorious Americans.
II am now on the rounds of new
| America" said Mr.. Creelman this
morning. Here l have seen Mr.. Dole
and others with view to posting my.
| self on your local conditions. Yes,
shall write something about it. l will
stop at Hongkong, and from there viii
| go to Manila. Will see General Oti:
and Admiral Dewey, and hope to Sc,
the insurgent forces. 1t is my intcn
ton to visit all points of interest in tn
