MORE EXTRA SESSION TALK.

Congress May He Called to Make Law.
for the Provinces.
WASHINGTON, March lin spite OF
the fact that there is every prospect of a
compromise agreement on the army in.
crease bill and that differences between
both houses over appropriations arr
likely to be arranged before Saturday at
noon, an extra session is by no means
unlikely. There is a serious question a.
to the right Of the president to maintain
military governments in Cuba, Porto
Rico and the Philippines after the
treaty notifications shall have been ex:
changed. AS these exchanges, under
the terms of the Paris protocol, cannot
be delayed after the 10th of June, it is
argued that some arrangement for the
civil government Of the province must
be perfected by that date. Unless the
lawmaking power is in session at the
moment peace is formally declared, it
would appear. therefore, that the ad.
m%inistration will be placed in a very
embarrassing position.
Under the circumstances the presi.
dents advisers seem to regard a call fol
the early assembling of the F~ifty-sixth
congress as inevitable.
