BILLS WILL PASS
Senators Give Assur-
ances that Majorities
Will be Secured

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17-Important
conferences were held to- day between the
President and prominent members Of the
Senate regarding the legislative prospect
for the remainder of the session. Presi-
dent Roosevelt is anxious to have enacted
some antitrust legislation and to secure
the ratification of the Cuban reciprocity
treaty. Such assurances as are possible
a this time have been given him that
both of his desires will be fulfilled.
In the course of an interview to-day
Senator Burrows of Michigan. who last
spring led the opposition to the reciproc-
ity legislation, told the President that.
with possibly one exception. the nineteen
Senators who opposed that legislation
would support the pending reciprocity
treaty as amended. He had no doubt that
the treaty would be ratified, as he was
assured that no serious opposition was to
be expected from those Democratic Sem
ators who regarded the treaty with dis
favor. Senators Platt of Connecticut and
Aldrich of Rhode Island discussed with
the President the prospect of antitrust
legislation in the Senate. Both were of
opinion that some measure perhaps could
be passed at this session, although ii was
pointed out that, with less than six weeks
Of the session remaining, it would be
a serious problem to overcome any very

Senator Beveridge Of Indiana told the
President that it was certain that the ON
nibus statehood bill could not be passed
by the Senate. He did not indicate what
fate awaited his committees statehood
measure.
Senator Fairbanks Of Indiana, in a talk
with the President, added his assurance
that the Cuban treaty would be ratified
and that perhaps some legislation bear
ing upon the trust question would be en-
acted.

Reasonable Thieves.

Mr.. e. II. Parker in his book, "John
Chinaman," gives an account of Chi
nese thieves which indicates a peculiar
code Of ethics among professional
thieves in the Celestial empire. One
night at Canton Mr. Parker heard in
the middle of the night conversation
on the roof of the house in which he
was staying.
By listening he discovered that the
kitchenmaid was in the attic talking
to some one on the roof
"Who is that you are talking top he
asked
ut is only Tim, the thief, sir. It's all
right, sir. He won't come again to-
night"
Mystifled by this strange remark. he
consulted a Chinaman. who told him
that the woman had been conversing
with common thief who had come on
the roof to rob the house. The maid
had heard the thief on the roof and
went up to tell him that he must not
try to rob the house, as the people
were awake and moving about
you see," said the China man, 80
long as you don't raise cry when you
detect thief he will be reasonable
with you. If you had given him in
charge. it might have happened on
some other night the thief's friends
would have committed burglary with
violence instead Of mere thieving."
