Washington, D. c., Nov. ct is ap-
parent that the enemies of reciprocity
with Cuba are planning to- tie the
hands Of congress during the special
session and prevent ratification by the
house of the senate's action.
| A discovery which may seriously
affect the treaty has Just been made
amendment as adopted at the special
session. of the senate last spring and
the fact that the treaty has been rati-
fed by the senate, have never been
formally made public by the senate.
Accordingly, the house being now
in possession Of technically imper-
feet treaty cannot take action nor in
troduce an enabling act until after the
senate has voted in executive session
to make public it's actionA5in the re-
spects named.
Opponents of the treaty have not
been slow to see their advantage and
are preparing to place every possible
obstacle in the way of the necessary
vote with a view to forcing the house
to remain impotent in thefinterval.
Another Chance for Morgan.
i The dilemma presented by this situ-
alton is fully appreciated by the re-
L publican leaders. The, prospect OF

appalling, and yet the performance OF
these senators at the last session OF
the senate furnished ample evidence
of their ability to talk against time
Another, but minor, feature, which
Ito some extent complexities the stu

F0RETELLS THE

University of Chicago Professor Says

brace the Continent.
New York Sun spscial Service.

Chicago, Nov. 6.-"By 1910 North
America and the United States may be
synono-aus terms" This prophecy
was maue by DR.. F. w. Shepardson Of
the University of Chicago yesterday.
DR.. Shepardson is professor of Ameri
can history. He was lecturing to his
class on the newly organized republic
of Panama.
Owing to our relations with the
new state because of the proposed
Panama CANAL said the professor,
aannexation of Pana ma. to>the United
States will be a natural consequence.
This will lead to the acquisition of
more territory in the West Indies and
also in Central America. Then Mexico
will be annexed.
'I predict that in 1910 Panama will
be part Of the United States and that
by 1910 Mexico and Canada will both
have been acquired by similar process.
Mexico will ask to be taken in under
the stars and stripes. Canada will
be annexed by the common consent Of
Great Britain and the Canadians, The
United States will embrace the whole
of North America

Statement, Stripped Of Verbiage, Is
That He .sNeeds the Money
Special to The Journal. :
. Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 6.-In justifca-
ton Of his action in seeking to pro-
bate Phile Benefits will, Mr. Bryan,
in a long statement" says he does SO
because he owes it to his dead friend
to see that his dearest wishes are car
ried out. He says he accepted the
when assured he was not depriving
any relative of any portion, and If
he did not the money would go to
charity.
Waving the charge Of undue in
huence as controverted by the facts,
volved is, should he have conditionalIy
accepted the bequest. In explanation
Ne says:
| Mr.. Bennett knew Mr.. Bryan was de-
voting his life to the study and discussion
| of questions of government and was en-
deavoring to secure the triumph Of polit-
| ical principles dear to Mr.. Benefits heart;
he knew that Mr.. Bryan was in a better
/ position to labor in wider field. He
knew that Mr. Bryan's political work
placed him under obligations that COM
PEELED a large annual outlay Of money,
but at the same time restricted his power
| to accumulate. He knew that If the be-
quest was accepted it would enable Mr..
Bryan to devote larger part Of his time
to unremunerative labor Of a public char
acter.s
Since 1896 Mr.. Bryan has given nearly
half his time to work that brought no
compensation. In the seven years he has
given in cash more than $4,000 to polit
ical organizat tons and more than $4,000
to education. charity and religion. His
net savings are something like $4,000
more than half of which is invested in his
home and brings no income. The Com
mor,er is not the bonanza it has been as
serted, and all in excess of $4,000 year
profits has been invested in a subscription
guarantee fund.
Mr.. Bryan adds that if the will is
upheld he purposes to deliver without
compensation enough lectures in col
llege towns to make up the sum OF
/ $4,000, at the price which he usually
receives from lecture bureaus. If il
is not upheld the plan will be carried
out anyway, because Mr.. Bennett did
his part. and If the bequest fails it will
notsbe thru any fault of the testator.
