President Roosevelt Has Done All He Will
for the Cubans.

OF fact' II is now pretty clearly understood
that tue president has done all he is going
to do us to reciprocity legislation. He is
through With conferences and does not iu.
tend to follow his recent special message
with further action OF any kind. lie does
not feel that the defeat OF reciprocity
would be defeat Of his own proposition
aud therefore he has no particular pride or
Ambition. Cuban reciprocity was advocated
by President Mckinley and others and was
one OF the problems inherited by President
Roosevelt lie believes 1t to be right
aud just policy but he IS not to be heio
responsible for its defeat, and would prob
ably rot use all his powers to secure its
adoption.
There was belief today, even among
the antl-reciprocity people who visited the
president, that the question would be salts
factorily settled in a republican senatorial
Conference
As a result of the situation as 1t is seen
today, adjournment within two weeks is
