WASHlN NGTON, d. c., August l2-Ad-
vices received here indicate that Presi-
dent Roosevelt will call the Senate in ex-
raordinary session in November Ever
since it became evident that nothing
would be accomplished as TO reciprocity
with Cuba a the recent session of Con-
g!ess, rumors of more or less definite
nature have been in circulation that the
President would call an extra session
either of the entire Congress. to enact
cuban reciprocity legislation. or OF the
Senate, TO ratify, if possible. a reciprocal
treaty with Cuba.
During the past week it has been stated
that 1t was the purpose Of President
Roosevelt to call special session Of the
Senate a S early as September II can be
stated by authority that he has no such
intention. His time and that of many
members of the Senate of both political
parties Will be completely occupied dur
ing September and October. It is under
stood to be the belief Of the President
that a session Of the Senate for the pur-
pose of raufying reciprocity treaty with
Cuba would be much more likely to be
fruitful of results if it is held after the
November elections than if it was held
before. It is assured that the question
Of the relations of the United States with
Cuba will enter largely in the approaching
campaign, and it is stated that the Pres
ident feels that the Democrats will be
less likely to object to reciprocity treaty
after election than before that time.
a treaty with Cuba has already been
prenared. 1t requires only the finishing
touches and the signatures of NJ. Quesa da
and Secretary Hay to make it ready for
the Senate for ratification. No definite
date is fixed for the meeting of the SEN
ate in November, but that it will be soon
after the elections is reasonably certain.
The President hopes to have the Cuban
question cleared away entirely before the
regular session of Congress-
