THE SPECIAL SESSION
To Clear Away the Matter of Cuban
Reciprocity Before the
Regular Session. 4

Washington, Aug. 12.-Adyices received
here indicate that President Roosevelt
will call the senate in extraordinary
session early in November.
Whether the past week it has been
stated that it was his purpose to call
special session of the senate early in
September. 1t can be stated by author
ity that he has no such intention. His
time and that of many members OF both
political parties will be occupied during
September and October. 1t is understood
to be the belief of the president that
session of the senate held for the pur-
pose of ratifying reciprocity treaty with
Cuba would be much more likely to De
fruitful of results if held after the Mo-
vember elections than If held before.
1t is assured that the question OF the
relations Of the United States with Cuba
will enter largely into the approaching
campaign and it is stated that the pres
ident feels the democrats will De less
likely to offer serious opposition to a
reciprocity treaty after the election than
they would before that time.
A treaty with Cuba has been prepared.
It requires only the finishing touches
and the signatures of Minister Quesada
and Secretary of State Hay to make it
ready for presentation to the senate. No
definite date 1t is understood, has been
fixed upon for the meeting In November
but that 1t will be soon after the cleo

"Details of Mr.. Lambs examination late
yesterday will be found on page Of this
paper.]
New York, Aug. 12.-The examination
begun yesterday of George A. Lamb,
counsel for Peter Power in the action
against the Northern Pacific directors to
prevent them from turning over the stock
of the company to the Northern Securi-
ties company was resumed before Special
Examiner Richard A. Mabey of Mime
apolis, to-day.
Replying to questions of Mr.. Guthrie
for the defense, Mr.. Lamb said that
Power had paid him for services in the
case and denied that he had received a
dollar from Camille Weidenfeld, or Con-
tent & Co.
Telling of talk with Governor Van
SAINT Of Minnesota, he declared that the
governor had said to him that it would
be good thing for the state if it could
buy stock of the northwestern railroads,
but that the attorney general of the state
had come to the conclusion that the state
could not own the stock.
| did Mr.. Weidenfeld ever tell you he
wanted somebody punished for the panic
of May 81" asked Mr.. Guthrie.
"He has expressed his indignation
| about the matter" said Mr.. Lamb dn re-
ply. HE said they ought to be gotten
after, but that they were too strong"
At this point the examination of Mr..
Lamb was suspended and Camille
Weidenfeld, banker and broker, was
called. He denied that he knew Peter
Power or had ever seen him. He did not
own any common stock of Northern Pa
cifc in 1900, but late in 1901 he secured
an option on 100 shares of Northern Pa
cif1c common stock from Content & Co..
which he bought on Dec. 26, 1901. An
swering questions, Mr.. Weidenfeld saiC
he decided the certificate over to Captain
Stern, friend, on Dec. 80. The captain
he said, took the stock west for the pur-
7 pose of beginning lawsuit. The witness
said that the certificate Of stock was re-
turned to him about ten days after.
The certificate, he averred, had never
been under control of Mr. Lamb and hi
had never agreed to carry 100 shares o
Northern Pacific for Mr.. Lamb or Mr.
Power. He had contributed between
Z $4,000 and $4,000 to this suit. Captai,
Stern. he said, had received it'll
did you ever tell Mr. Lamb yo1
wished to punish anybody for the pand
Of May 9?' asked Mr.. Guthrie.
II think not" was the reply.
Continuing his testimony, Mr.. Weiden
'eld said that at present the relations be

trained He said that Mr.. Lamb toll
him that Peter Power was a man o
property
What did you expect to get out of thi
suit?''
II wanted to have these mergers tested
If they are legal the knowledge would b
valuable to me-
Mr.. Weidenfeld absolutely denied tha

dentials as they entered the mayors out
er office, and then passed them on to Or
