with Newfoundland was before the
joint high commission which sat in
Washington and Quebec in 1898. No
arrangement could be reached by the
commission, because of the divergent
interests Of Newfoundland and Canada.
The American delegates were willing
to frame an agreement with Newfound-
land, but not with Canada.
Sir Robert Bond says that the i'm
perial government has sanctioned the
reopening of negotiations for a trade
arrangement between Newfoundland
and this government. He regards this
as recognition by the imperial gov
ernment of the claims of fNewfoundland
to negotiate such treaty, indepen-
dent of the claims or interests of Can
ada.
1t is not probable that Mr.. Adee as
te acting Secretary of State will take
up this question officially with Sir
Robert, but will discuss it with him
unofficially and pave the way for an
interview with Secretary Hay.

WRATH
In Evidence In
West End.
Market Street Torn Up
For Sewer
And Prospects Are That II Will
be So All Winter.

Citizens living in the West End are
angry. The cause of their wrath is the
slow progress made on the sewer that
is being laid on West Market st, from
Kuder ave. to the city limits. The. con-
struction of the sewer causes one-half
the street to be torn up and street car
service has been suspended. The pros
pect of tramping through mud and
slush this winter has not served to put
the citizens in good humor neither has
the fact that Contractor O'Toole has a
very small force of men at work on
the sewer been pleasing.
In speaking about the matter, Thurs
day, Mr.. Aaron Teeple said: 1T is an
outrage that more men are not at
work on this sewer. This street is much
travelled by farmers. Yet the prospect
is that II will be torn up all winter.
l counted just nine men at work on the
sewer this morning One was the boss,
one was the timekeeper, one was the
city inspector and the other six were
Italian laborers. This force manages
to lay about Is feet of pipe per day. 1t
surely is great saving to the city to
pay an inspector $3.50 per day for in
specting Is feet when if the contractor
would put on the force of men that the
job demands, there would be 20 rods
daily to inspect The City Commits
sioners should see to it that one of the
main streets of the city is not torn up
all winter"

N TREATY
Which Will Pro-
Vide Reciprocity
Between Uncle Sam and
Newfoundland.
liz Robert Bond Is Ready 10
Make One.

Washington, ID. c., Sept. 1S.-Sir
Robert Bond, Premier of Newfound-
land, is in Washington for the purpose
Of reopening negotiations with the
United States for a treaty of reciproc-
ity between Newfoundland and this
country. Mr.. Raikes, British charge
Of the embassy, called upon Acting Sec
rotary OF State Adee and made an ell
eagement for the reception Of the New
foundland Premier.
Twelve years ago Sir Robert Bond.
acting for Newfoundland, the late Lord
Pauncefote, acting for the British en,-
pire, and james G.. Blaine, then Sec
retnry of State, signed a convention
known as the Bond Blaine treaty
providing for reciprocal trade between
the island of Newfoundland and the
United States. The treaty was never
ratified because the Canadian govern
ment interfered with protest to her
majesty's government, on the ground
that the dominion had not been in
cluded In the treaty and that Canada
should be permitted similar treaty
-Dn her own account
Sir Robert has secured the consent
of Lord Lansdowne to reopen these ne
ROTATIONS on behalf of Newfoundland,
aud It is the hope that he will be able
to revive the treaty and secure it's rat
ification by the United States and
Great Britain. 1t is probable that
this effort on behalf of Newfoundland
will again raise the whole issue of
reciprocal trade relations with Can
ada and 1t may fail again through the
efforts of Canada.
The Newfoundland Premier has
something to offer the United States
for the concession Of reciprocity in fish
products. The American fishermen
want bait to carry on their operations
and this bait is procurable only in New
foundland waters. The Americans
buy this and pack 1t in ice for use on
the banks.
AS the Americans have no fishing
rights within the three-mile limit, they
a have to recognize Newfoundland au
thorIty by obtaining license and pay.

besides which nearly 250,000 barrels
OF herring were taken from Newfound
land waters In American bottoms to bt
used as bait for United States fisher

This government has no objections
to negotiating a reciprocity agreemen
with Newfoundland, or to revivini
