ARRANGING TO EXTEND TIME.
Ratification of the West Indian Reel
procfty Treaties Has Been DELAYED.


procfty Treaties Has Been Delayed.
Arrangements are being made for the ex-
tension of the time allowed for tn, ratifica-
ton of the Jamaican reciprocity treaty and
the other reciprocity conventions applying
to the British West Indian Islands These
conventions contain about the same condi-
tons as the French reciprocity treaty rela-
tive to ratification. The time limit allowed
for ratification expires at about the same
time So far as can be learned by the State
Department. there is little or no opposition
to any of these British West Indian treaties,
with the single exception of the Jamaican
treaty, and opposition in that case is rap
idly disappearing as the actual scope of the
treaty becomes known. The fact that the
French treaty has precedence on the Senate
calendar over these other arrangements
makes IT necessary to extend the time in
that case If they are to be saved for further
consideration.
