IS CLAYTON TO GO?
RumOr That the Ambassador to M exico Has
Been Summoned To Washington to Ex-
plain Charges Against Him.

Washington, April III. Clay Ev-
ans will probably be appointed am
bassador to Mexico. Powell Clayton,
the present ambassador, is coming
to Washington, ostensibly to attend
dinner given by his daughter. This
announcement is regarded as notice
that Mr.. Clayton has been summoned
home to explain the charges made
against him by many American resi-
dents in Mexico, that he is interested
in mining ventures there, and has
failed to look after the interests of
other Americans. The president and
secretary of state have been much
annoyed by the charges and evidence
presented against Ambassador Clay
ton.
Powell Clayton is one of the best
known republican politicians. For
years he has been national commit
teeman from Arkansas. Prior and
during the civil war he resided in
Kansas and commanded Kansas
regiment.

CUBAN RECIPROCITY BILL.
hostile Republican Members of the House
Ways and Means C0mmfttee Confer
About Defeating the Measure.

Washington, April Following the
action of the ways and means COM
nittee in the Cuban reciprocity bill,
the republican members who oppose
the bill held conference in the COM
nittee room of Representative w. A.
Smith, of Michigan. About 80 mem
oers were present, representing the
Farious states interested in beet
sugar production. No formal action
was taken, but the discussion was in
the line of continuing the contest
On the floor of the house. It is ex-
oected, however, that the opposition
will be from members individually,
rather than from a compact and or.
ganized opposition.
After the meeting it was claimed
Oy those present that about 80 re-
publicans would speak and vote
against the bill. The ways and
means leaders feel confident that the
bill will pass, probably by repub-
iican votes. In any event there is
said to be more than sufficient demo-
cratic support of the bill to offset
the republican detection.

THE IRRIGATION BILL.
President Roosevelt Opposes Some of It's
Provisions, Although He Approves of
Its General Purposes.

Washington, March 31.-President
Roosevelt, after a conference with
western congressman, stated his OPP
position to some of the provisions
of the irrigation bill, now pending in
the house. The president approved
of the general purposes of the bill,
but frankly said that he could not
approve the measure as it now
stands. He is especially opposed to
the section providing for state con-
troll of the appropriation, distribu-
ton and use Of the water from the
irrigation canals. The president be-
lieves that federal supervision is es-
sential, not only to success, but to
fair and impartial distribution, alto
gether removed from political or
other considerations.
