Washington, Nov. 23.-The extra
ordinary session of congress would
come to an end tomorrow but for
the obstinancy of Speaker Cannon,
who declares that he will not agree
to any such program. Conferences
to-day between House and Senate
leaders failed to bring about an
agreement as to adjournment, but /
the prediction is freely made that all
sides will get together tomorrow
and the finish will take place We'd
nesday. The House cannot now
muster quorum, and with the Sen
ate fully resolved not to pass the Gu
ban reciprocity bill until the regular
session the uselessness of further ex-
tending the extra session of congress
is apparent. Most of the members
of the House have departed for their.
homes with the intention Of remain
ing until December. Representatives
Thomas and Patterson, the only
North Carolina members in the city,
will leave for the state Wednesday.
