RECIPROCITY WITH JAMAICA.
California Fruit Growing Interest,"
Are Opposed to the treaty.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 9-The senate
committee on foreign relations today
heard arguments on both sides of the
controversy over the Jamaica reciprocity
treaty. Hon. ]. A Kasson, who negotia-
ted the treaty, appeared in support of it.
While Senator Perkins, of California, OPP
posed the ratification of the agreement.
Mr.. Perkins based his opposition upon
the ground that the acceptance of the
treaty would be injurious to the fruit
interests of the country, especially of CAL
ffornia. He declared the United States
would get practically nothing in return
for the concession to the country. The
Jamaican duty on flour could have been
removed or lowered there would be some
basis for the treaty, as such reduction
would be an object to this country. Ag-
ricultural implements, he said, were now
admitted free into Jamaica.
Mr.. Kasson defended the treaty as in
the interest of amicapIe relations. He
said that while it is true that agricultural
implements are now admitted free of
duty into Jamaica, there was no assur-
ance that this would continue to be the
case as matters stand; but that the rati-
fication of the treaty would secure the
United States on that point!i With refer
ence to7four, Mr.. Kasson said that ar
ticle had been left upon the dutiable list
Of Jamaica because Of the necessity of
raising revenue; but whether free or du-
table, Jamaica gets practically all her
-four from the United States, he said.
The hearing was not concluded when the
committee adjourned.
Senator Bard and several California
members of the house were present at the
hearing.

WON'T SLASH RATES.
Railroads and Steamer Lines Will
divide Buffalo Business.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-Railroad and lake
steamship lines directly interested IN
Buffalo passenger traffic from lake ports
will work hand in hand so far as the
Pan-American business is concerned.
Representatives of these lines at meet
ing, here today practically decided that
rates authorized for the exposition should
not be disturbed in any circums lance.
In order to guard against decentralization
of the tariffs the roads and the lake
carriers will give prospective visitors to
the exposition the privilege of travelling
by mixed routes, which means going
by water and returning by land, or vice
versa, at rates proportionatcly the same
as those granted by all-rail or all-water
routes.
While the plans have not been fully
agreed upon yet, it is regarded as certain
that the rates by way of waterfall routes
will be sufficiently lower than all-rail
rates to attract a reasonable share of the
traffic to the vessel owners. AS soon
as the Eastern roads agree upon a rate
for the exposition, the Buffalo roads and
the water carriers will make out tariff
sheet

This declaration on the part of one OF

scene in the Office at the time. 1t was
crowded with men from every part of the
state, and all were looking for billet.
All the commissioners have well filled
files of applications and so far they have

are of the opinion that every man who
has ever known them is in the list, to-

the office and records of the sheriff's Of
flee of Fall River county, despite the eff
forts of C. L. Jensen, Republican candi-
date, to the contrary. Petty received a
majority upon the returns and the GER
tificate of election was issued to him
Jensen contested, and through his at
torney procured from Judge Joseph B.
Moore, of the Eighth judicial circuit,
upon an affidavit of default, Judgment
emitting him TO the Office. Petty mad
this judgment set inside; then Jensen ap-
pealeI from the order vacating the judG-
ment, filing a bond to supersede the e.
feet of the order. Petty then appealed
from the first judgment giving the Office
to Jensen, and filed a supersedeas bond.
This left matters in the same condition
as after the election. Petty filed with the
county commissioners his official bond,
which was approved after Petty had got
ten an order from Judge MCGEE, of the
Seventh judicial circuit, in which cir
cult is Fall River county, directing. the
commissioners to show cause why the
bond had not been approved. From
present indica tons Mr. Petty will have
time to serve out his two years term of
office before the two appeals are decided

BISMARCK, N. D., jan S-The two
houses of the legislature got to work to-
day, after an organization effected with
as little struggle as in a. the history of
state legislatures. There are some sore
place. but none Of a lasting nature. The
selection of Pollock, of Cass, as speaker
was accomplished with little difficulty.
Pollock had the advantage of enough
steadfast supporters to place him in the
band wagon stage early In the proceed
ings. Bacon had been away from the
state for a couple of weeks, before the
clans began to gather at Bismarck, and,
although he had some support, 1t was
disunited, and before he could gather 1t
into working shape some of the men he
had figured on began to seek the Pollock
camp. Bacon saw early in the evening
after his arrival that to continue the
fight would only embarrass some of his
friends, who were interested in faring as
well in the house Organization as they
could. and SO he withdrew.
Little and La Moure were among the
leaders in the organization of the senate.

Vanderbilt Interests in Control

NEW YORK. JAM s.-rhe Mall and Ex-

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-The Mail and Ex-
press says:
William K. Vanderbilt's plan for the
welding together Of the Union Pacific
and Chicago & Northwestern railroads,
which he conceived more than a year ago,
is now about to be carried out. When
1t Is completed it will be found that the
Vanderbilts have a transcontinental line
Of their own from the Atlantic to the
Pacific ocean. The original scheme was
to lease the Union Pacific to the North
Western, but it Is not yet certain whether
this will be done or not. The control of
the former is to be acquired through
the purchase of a majority of Union Pa
cif1c stock, and this is being done in the
open market, which accounts for the big
jump in price during the last two days.
The Vanderbilts already have con-
siderable representation in the Union Pa
cific directory, Marvin Hughitt, Roswell
Miller, Horace G. Burt, E. H. Hartman
and James Stillman being regarded as
friends to William X. Vanderbilt. The
assumption of control will be brought
about by the naming of majority of the
board, which is expected to take place
at an early date.
The Union Pacific stock acquired by
the North Western will be treated in much
the same way as the majority of Jersey
Central stock, which was bought by j.
P. Morgan & Co. for the Reading. A
collateral trust bond may be issued, but
this is not yet certain. Some favor
lease of the Union Pacific to the Chica-
go & Northwestern.
This deal was fastened by the discovery
that the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
was anxious to secure the Union Pacific,
or, at any rate, to make close traffic
deal with the latter. This compelled the
North Western people to hurry their ne
gotiations.
1t is still possible that the interests of
the Burlington will be considered and
that the three great systems will be
brought into close harmony. But the
control of the Union Pacific will rest with
the Vanderbilts. A large block of Union
Pacific stock was bought by Burlington
interests, with view of uniting with
the former.
1t was reported in Wall street today
that the new Union Pacific alliance
would be still further enlarged by the
addition of other railroads in the Cen
trail West, including the Alton and Rock
Island.
For several years the Northwestern
has sent most of its eastbound traffic over
the Union Pacific, and the latter has re"
ciprocated on eastbound business
