Presidents Message to the
Houses on Need of
Some Agreement.
AMERICA BENEFITED
Each Has Much to Gain
From Treaty Mutually
of Use in Trade.
ny ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, d. c., Nov. 1o.-Today's
session OF the senate was devoted exclu-
sively to the reading of the presidents
message in support of reciprocity with
Cuba, and to the routine incident TO the
receipt of the message.
The message received the careful atten-
ton OF the senator's, and when its reading
had been concluded Mr.. Cullom of ILL
nois was recognized to move the refer
ence to the committee on foreign rcla-
tlons OF the message and the Cuban treaty
text of which had been transmitted with
the message. This motion prevailed and
1t had no sooner been disposed of than
upon motion of Mr.. Allison of Iowa the
senate adjourned.
The presidents message follows:
10 the Senate and House of Representatives:
l nave convened the congress that il may
consider the legislation necessary to put into
operation the commercial treaty with Cuba.
which was ratified by the senate at it's last
session and subsequently by the Cuban govern.
ment. deem such legislation is demanded not
only by our interest but by our honor We
cannot with propriciy abandon the course upon
winch we have so wisely embarked When
the acceptance OF the Patt amendment was
required from Cuba by the action Of the con.
gress OF the United States, this government
thereby definitely committed itself 10 the pol.
ICY OF treating Cuba occupying a unque
position as regards this country. Ii was pro.
vided that when the island became free and
independent republic she should stand in such
close relations with us as in certain respects
to come within our system OF international
policy; and 1t necessarily followed that she
must also, to a certain degree, become in.
cluded within the lines of our economic
policy. Situated as Cuba is il would not be
wise Tor this country to permit the strategic
abuse OF the island by any foreign military
power. 1t is for this reason that certain Iimi.
tations have been imposed upon her financial
pohcy and that naval stations have been con.
ceded by her to the United States. The he.
gotiations as TO the details of these naval
stations are on the eve of completion They
are so situated as to prevent any idea that
mere IS the intention ever TO use them against
Cuba or otherwise than for the protection of
Cuba from the assaults OF foreign foes, and
Tor the better safeguarding of American in
terests in the water south of us.
These interests have been largely increased
by the consequences of the war with Spain
and will be still further increased by the

Brown Believes Shooting Might Have
Been Done by Former Employee
The Shot Did Not Hit Him.

William Brown, a fireman at the Raru.

some one had fred at him while he wos -,
work last evening. According to the story
told by Brown, his assalant steppcd to
the door Of the bailcr room, about six feet
distant from where Brown was shoycling

to base his suspicious on save that there
was III feeling between him and the other

Last evening, shortly before 6 O'Clock, he

Brown Immediately jumped between two

shots which he expected. The boiler room
was cloudy WIN steam and he could see

"Situation Considered"
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

- 'fop' iHl Eb PkE5S,
Washington, d. C.. Nov. Io.-An i'm.
portant conference concerning the Panama
situation was held at the White Hous.
today, just prior to formal meeting of ,hr
cabinet. The participants in the confer.
encc were President Roosevelt, Senator
Hanna and members Of the cabinet. The
decision reached, if any, was moi disclosed
1t is understood however, that the decision
was purely informal and not intended in
any manner to be decisive. -.
Shortly before the meeting of the cab.
met Senator Hanna arrived at the exc.
cutive Offices accompanied by w. ]. Curtis
a member OF the law firm Of Sullivan and
Cromwell OF New York, attorneys for this
country for the new Panama Canal COM
pany. They were admitted to the prcsi.
dents Office at once. -,
Mr.. Curtis remained only a few min
utcs. He said he merely paid his resDects
to the president. Senator Hanna remained
with the president for more than half an
hour Long after the members of the
cabinet had assembled he and the president
continued to talk, several of the cabinet
joining in the talk. AS Senator Hanxa he
said that he and the president had not
discussed the chairmanship of the na-
tional committee. "In fact" said he
that matter was not mentioned today. II
is dead issue anyhow"
We talked of a variety of topics" con-
tinued the senator "among them the
Panama situation. That is not political
question, not even a technical one. The
people OF this country want an isthmian
canal built and they want it built by the
Panama route. They have accepted tho
Panama route and they propose to stand
by the president in the latter constructing
the canal by that route"
Senator Hanna was asked whether in
his opinion it would be necessary to enact
new legislation to provide for negotia-
tons between the United States and the
republic of Panama for the construction
OF that canal lie replied that that was
a question for lawyer to answer. He
felt that new treaty would be neces-
sary OF course, but did not think serious
difficulties would be encountered in neoo-
tiating canal treaty with Panama.
The navy department is advised that
