AN EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS
President VIII Issue Call Unless Pam
anna Canal and Cuban Treaty Are
Ratified.

President Roosevelt will call an ex-
traordinary session of the senate of
the Fifty-eighth congress, unless both
the Panama canal and the Cuban reel
procity treaty are ratified at the pres
ent session. The president made this
declaration of his intention to several
senators Thursday, and he made it as
emphatically and unequivocally as he
was capable of making it.
1t is deemed likely by officials of the
administration and by many senators
that both treaties will be ratified be-
fore March 4. but the necessity for
their early ratification is regarded by
the president as so urgent that in the
event of the failure of either one or
both at the present session, he will is
sue Immediately his call for an extra
session. 1t is said that there are grave
reasons of state why both treaties
should be ratified as soon as possible.
These have induced the president to
make the announcement to senators of
his determination.

RIOT CARTRIDGES.
New Kind of Ammunition to be Used
In Suppression of Riots.

The war department has sent notices
to governors of each state that it is
prepared to supply them upon demand
and according TO their legal allowances
with riot cartridges This is a new
form of ammunition prepared by the
experts OF the ordnance bureau to en-
able officers OF the law and soldiers to
repel rioters with the least possible
loss of life to the innocent by
stander"
The shell is like that of the regular
shell used in the army rifle, with the
important exception that instead OF
the long nickel-plated and steel-clad
bullet, two balls are placed in the
mouth. The design was apparently to
secure something of greater range
than buckshot. yet not dangerous to
persons at distance. The cartridge
is charged with about thirty four
grains of smokeless powder. The balls
are made of a mixture OF lead and tin
in proportion Of 16 to l. and are slight
ly coated with para1ine.

The breaking of three reservoirs in
the town of Shelton, Conn, caused
damage estimated at between SIS, 900
and 100000, and there were several
narrow escapes from death.
The torrent tore a great gully 40
fet long and thirty feet wide through
Howe avenue. Logs and trees and
huge cakes OF ice we're carried along
and crashed into several buildings.
The house of Walter Nichols was
struck by the food. Nichols was away
and his wife was awakened by the
ice crashing against the door A few
minutes later the water commenced
to flow into the bed rooms, where six
children were sleeping. Mrs. Nichols
hurried to the door and held it shut
while her children escaped to an up

escaped, just before the water forced
in the door and flooded the rooms.
The family remained prisoners in the
upper part of the house until the
water receded. Street railway tracks
and telephone and telegraph wires
were all torn down and strewn about
In confusion. The reservoirs will have
to be rebuilt and this, with the prop
erty loss. it is believed, will make the
