EXTRA SESSION CALLED.
Minnesota Legislature Will Convene
Early in February.

minnesota Legislature VIII convene
Early in February. s. j.
st. Paul, Jan. a14.-Governor Van
SAINT has issued a formal call for spe-
cial session of the legislature on Feb.
to consider the report of the tax COM
mission and to revise the law govern
ing taxation. The call is in accordance
with an agreement whereby the legis-
lature cut short its session of last win
ter. n
The early date of the extra session
is necessary because the proposed tax
law changes the time of beginning an
assessment. The assessor, under the
bill submitted by the tax commission,
will begin work April instead of May
1, as formerly. The governor deemed
it expedient to call the session as soon
as possible, in order that the proposed
tax laws may take effect before the
next assessment is made. ),
The message of the governor, it is
said, will deal alone with the work of
the tax commission and the necessity
for doing away with the present sys-
TEN, but it will sum up the railroad sit
uation in the, state and the railroad
merger. The governor suggests that
his call includes only the matters that
are most important to the state, yet
it will be possible for the legislature
to pass upon great many things.

sion of Porto Rico. arrived during the
day from San Juan on the steamer
Ponce. The codes prepared by this
commission are being made the main
subject of discussion at the session of
the legislative assembly of Porto Rico,
which opened on the 1st of January.
Speaking of the work of the session
Mr.. Rowe said: " .s~
.'The attitude of the legislative as
sembly towards the codes submitted
by the commission demonstrates the
widespread desire to secure, as soon
as possible. the full benefit of Ameri-
can institutions. The Foraker act con.
tinued in force all the Spanish laws un-
til amended or repealed by the local
legislative assembly. This work of
amendment has been taken up with
great earnestness. The codes which
the legislative assembly is now con-
sidering will bring the legal system of
Porto Rico into close harmony with
the general principles of law prevail
ing in the states and territories of the
Union and will to that extent encour-
age the influx of American capital to
the island. ..,s..l..
'The feeling of buoyancy which now
prevails throughout Porto Rico stands
in marked contrast with the depres-
sion of two years ago. The improve
ment of the, credit of the municipali-
ties as shown by the San Juan loan
will enable the towns to undertake
much needed improvements in the
way of drainage, water supply and san
itation. A final element of strength is
added to the situation by the fact that
both political parties have come to the
support of the administration At the
banquet recently rendered Governor
Hunt the leaders of both parties pledg-
ed their support in the efforts for the
advancement of the common interests

The recent developments in the
Schley case and the rear admiral's con-
ference with the president, at which
the latter promised to review the tes-
timony. and proceedings of the court
Of inquiry, have revived the rumors of
the early resignation of Secretary of
the Navy Long from the cabinet.
There was a rumor that Former Gov
ernor Lowndes Of Maryland was slated
for the portfolio.
At the White House a somewhat
equivocal denial is given out, but. it
is said that a change in the navy de-
partment may occur whenever it suits
Secretary Longs convenience to retire.
The latter's friends insist that he
will not retire while the Schley-Samp-
son affair is pending before the presi-
dent, as he does not care to give way.

order to solve the Spanish friars prob

as practicable young priests will be
sent to the Philippines to assume their
duties, 1t is estimated that about 700
missionaries will be needed for this
work, there being that number of
friars in the islands. Father Elliott of
the Paulist Fathers society, who for
the last two years has been superior
of a religious community at Washing
ton, has been relieved of his duties at
the capital and will devote all his en-
ergies to the collecting of funds for
the seminary. The institution will be
known as the Seminary for the Home
and Insular Missions"
At least 100000 will be needed and
$150,000 of it has already been prom
ised conditional on the remaining
S150,000 being raised.

CHICAGO DRAINAGE CANAL.
Delegation at Washington Seeking
Federal Appropriation.

aEf 4 #
Washington, Jan. 14.-The project
of giving national aspect to the Chi
cago drainage canal, making it link
in water connection between the Great
Lakes and he Gulf, was considered
during the ay by the house commit
tee on rivers and harbors. Two del
egations from Chicago we're present,
Including the officers Of the sanitary
district interested in this larger pro-
ject and another headed by former
Representative Adams of Chicago who
appeared in advocacy Of improved nav
igation facilities including turning
basins in the Chicago river. The lat
ter project was first presented by Mr..
Adams who explained the vast mag
nitude of the commerce on the river
and the difference and dangers Incl
dent to navigation at this time. The
city is making extensive improve
ments, widening the channel, erecting
the most modern bridges, ETC., costing
in the aggregate about $11 100000.
All of this benefited the general navi-
cation interests and it was desired that
the federal government supplement
the work by providing turning basins
to cost about $500,000
w. H. Baker, chairman of the com
mittee representing the canal trustees
stated the general purposes of the pro.
ject of extending that waterway to the
Mississippi and thence giving a deep
water channel to ST. Louis. For the
present the committee asked only a
government survey to develop the feas.
ibility and advantages of the plan,
this survey to cost 100000. Mr.. Ba.
ker did not go into the general merits
of the project, saying that the argu
ments were the same as those SO fully
presented last year.
