UP TO UNITED STATES.
Member of Canadian Parliament Talk.
ReciprocitY in Boston.

Boston, Mass, Dec. 12.-John Charl-
ton, member of the Canadian parlia-
ment, delivered a forceful address upon
b subject of Reciprocity With Can
ada before the Boston Chamber Of
Commerce today. The emo Of his adj
dress was that the United States must
grant more liberal tariff provisions O..
the Canadian tariff rates would even
Jtually be advanced.
Absolute free. trade, he said, be-
tween the two countries is impossible.
IN conclusion he said: "a critical hour
is at hand, when Canada will have ar
rived at the parting Of the ways, and
will decide whether she shall cultivate
her intimate M natural relations
with the United States or put up her
tariff wall against that country and be-
come a component part OF the great i'm
perial trade federation. The United
States can decide hat the latter shall
be the case by maintaining its present
tariff policy"

Russian Reply.

London, Dec. 16.-The terms Of the
reply OF Russia to Japan have been
communicated to the Japanese min
lister, Baron Hirsha, by the government
at Toxic. The minister said the nego-
tiations were still incomplete, but he
significantly said he saw no reason to
change his previously expressed opin-
ion that a peaceful settlement would
result therefronl.
After a careful examination of the
Russian draft OF agreement, the for
eign office is inclined to the belief it's
Immediate acceptance by3Japan is un-
likely, and that further parleying will
follow, but regards the draft as a step
toward a pacific settlement.
Baron Hayashi said to the Associated
Press that the reply was in the form
of an agreement which. if satisfactory
to Japan, may be immediately signed,
in which all the pending questions re-
ceive final settlement. He had received
no communication from his government
regarding his participation III the mat
ter and expressed the belief the Russia
Japanese matter will be amicably set
tied. A synopsis of the agreement be-
tween the governments is not available.
