RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA
Detroit Wholesalers Association Re-
quests Negotiation OF Treaty
for Free Trade.

DETROIT, Nov. 2S.-R. f. Sutherland,
speaker Of the Dominion OF Canada House
OF Parliament, addressing the quarterly
meeting Of the Wholesalers association OF
Detroit tonight at the Fellowcraft club,
declared that II there was TO be any inn
provement IN trade relations between Can
ada and the United States, the initiative
must now come from the United States.
Canada, he said, had done its part and II
was owing TO the attitude Of the United
States that the Dominion had adopted the
preferential tariff and given Great Britain
and the other colonies trade advantage.
The Wholesalers association adopted res
olutions declaring that trade relations with
Canada could be greatly improved. and
that under the Canadian Intermediate tariff
concessions could be granted to the United
States il the latter government should so
request. The president and congress are
requested to take the proper steps to in
sure freer trade between the two countries,
and It is urged that in the contemplated
revision of the tariff Of the United States
suitable provision be made by congress en-
powering the president, or a commission to
be appointed by him, or by congress, to
complete negotiations with Canada where
a more free interchange of raw materials
and manufactured goods can be obtained.

ing" but before s~urrendering the 5000,

friend to furnish the 5000. He was to
share in the proceeds. He obtained the
money at the Indiana National bank and the
prize with its equivalent was placed in
a tin cash box. The friend" having bust
ness to transact then, gave Cunningham
the box. saying he would stop at the Cun
bingham home on his way to lunch at noon
and they would divide, Cunningham to take
back his own 5000 in addition. When
lunch time passed and the friend was still
missing. Cunningham opened the box and

CHANGES IN WATER PLANS
Council Committee Proposes to Go
Slow in the Matter.
TALK OF EXTENDING THE MAINS
Canvass Of New Territory to Re Made
90 See How Many VIII Take water
Before Decision H. Reached
to Extend Service.

Councilman Jensen. chairman Of the
committee on waterworks, and ais COZ
leagues are planning not to take any
chances in making the revised plans for
the proposed municipal water plant. Be
fore deciding on extensions Of the water
mains in any of the districts now unsup-
piled and which the waterworks company
proposed to supply in the event Of being
granted a new charter, Chairman Jensen
and the municipal officials in charge Of
the waterworks proposition intend ascer-
tanning just how many householders VIII
take water from the proposed municipal
plant.
One of the several objections to the
plans for the municipal water plant as
drawn by City Engineer Etnyre was the
lack of service to certain districts at
present without water. Also there was
no assurance that persons along some OF
the proposed new mains would become
patrons of the municipal plant.
The canvass by the waterworks COM
mittee Of the property owners In the Sec
lions where the proposed new mains are
TO be laid in the event Of the municipal
water plant becoming a reality, Will, 1t
! was stated yesterday by one Of the COM
mittee, be begun Immediately. The cam
vass. II was also stated, will be carried
| on principally in the outlying districts
where there is now no water service.
The committee, It is stated, also con-
templates an entire rearrangement or the
! location Of the fire hydrants and the
| several councilmen will be consulted as
to the location of the MIGRANTS in their
respective wards.

WILL ARGUE FOR FREE HIDES

is Needed

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28-Preliminary to
the hearing tomorrow before the ways and
means committee on the tariff schedule
covering sundries which includes hides and
leather manufactures. a conference was
held here tonight by representatives OF the
shoe and leather trade. Delegates were Sc
leeted 10 address the committee tomorrow
ami urge that hides be put back on the
free list, a duty Of Is per cent being i'm
posed under the present tariff.
The principal claim they will make is
that the large packing establishments des
rive the chief profit from the tariff on
hides and that the farmer and cattle raiser
needs no protection, because the foreign
supply OF hides Is 30 limited by natural
conditions that It can never supplant the
domestic supply, which is exhausted by the
demands OF the home market. The large
packing interests control upwards of q
per cent OF the wet, sailed. sole and belt,
ing leather hides produced in this country
they will argue. and possess. therefore
almost a monopoly OF the domestic supply
OF such raw material. and aided by IN,
duty on hides, can control the pr9dgeuoI

Operator David Yates of the Rock Island

stolen and a check for $3.50. The robbery
was discovered by the crew OF westbound
passenger No. 3 which stopped for orders
as the signal the robber had turned indi-
Gated that it should do. Yates was held
up at the point of a gun while he was
passing through the waiting room Of the
station. At the point Of the revolver hC
was marched a quarter of a mile and locked
in a box car. No clue to the robber hai
been discovered, excepting the handkerchie

ELECTION NIGHT IN HAVANA
Natives Pull on n Celebration Berry
Much on the American
plan.

Watching and waiting for and celebrating
the result Of the Cuban election, held Mo-
vember 10. Is thus described by La Lucha.
the leading newspaper OF Havana:
1.-THE Americans who watched some OF
the things occurring last night must have
recalled election times at home. for the
street cars which traversed the city loaded
to the gunwales with enthusiastic liberals,
banners and music, evoked many smiles OF
appreciation and encouragement. The senti-
ment, Go It. boys; may tho best man win
was in the hearts of all the Americans who
witnessed the plentiful display OF enthusi-
asm. Many we're the cars which were thus
loaded, and the cheers and shouting her
aided their approach when they were sew
eral blocks distant. on some Of these cars
persons were perched on the roofs, so
anxious were they to climb into what they
considered the band wagon.
"Skyrockets were generously supplied and
used in making the night merry. and II was
the fact that a number OF s~kyrockets were
on one of these loaded cars which caused
an accident which fortunately did not prove
fatal to any of the crowd. One of the
young men on a crowded car as It was in
the vicinity of San Juan de Dios park. set
off a rocket which was held in such a
manner as to strike the roof OF the front
platform Wnere a portion OF lne crown was
standing. As the rocket hit the roof burn
ing sparks were scattered over the heads
OF those standing beneath. The flaming
rocket then fell to the floor sputtering and
making mad rushes like q scared cat be-
tween the feet and legs OF the dancing
crowd. Several other rockets which were
on the platform were ignited and the ball
| opened in great shape. The easy Cuban
waltz was not witnessed. however, for the
highland fling was never danced with more
abandon than it was on the car last night.
Those who did not take an active part
in the car rides gathered in groups and
discussed the situation, OF they were where
! they could do so, they cheered the cars as
they passed and were responded to in a
hearty manne
THE most gratifying feature OF the even
ing was the perfect order which was OBJ
served throughout the city. There were no
clashes OF any kind and when the news
reached this city of the shooting affair in
Cienfuegos regret was expressed on all
sides over the unfortunate occurrence. Dur
ing the evening many drove in carriages TO
the homes OF their friends who are candi-
dates before the people to congratulate
them on the victory.
The stores are all closed, but unlike
days Of this kind in the states the cafes

DISTRICT CLERKS OFFICE FORCE

with New Clerk.
Roy Hardesty and Tracy Rodwell. depu-
ties in the office OF the clerk of the dis
trict court, will hold their positions under
Harry NJ. Brown when he takes hold OF
the office at the beginning OF the year.
This announcement was made yesterday
afternoon by Mr.. Brown. Lemuel Binkley
will also remain in the office as clerk.
Both Hardesty and Rodwel lave served
as deputies in the office OF the clerk Of
the district court for four years. being sp-
pointed by II. V. Battey when the latter
was first elected. On II. J. Chambers sue
ceeding Mr.. Battey as clerk last April they
continued in their old positions.
The retention OF Messrs. Hardesty and
Rodwell by Mr.. Brown is most pleasing to
the members OF the bar and others having
business in the office Of the clerk OF the
courts, as they have both demonstrated that
they are the right men for the place by
their knowledge Of the intricacies OF the
work Of the office and by the uniform cour-
tesy with which they have always treated
those having business with the office.
Mr.. Hardesty about a week ago accepted
from Sheriff-elect McCaffery the offer OF
the position OF deputy sheriff at Avoca,
not knowing at that time that Mr.. Brown
contemplated retaining him as a deputy in
the Office OF the clerk OF the courts. His
present position is more to his liking thar
that OF a deputy sheriff, so yesterday Mr..
Hardesty notified Mr.. McCaffery that he
would prefer to accept the offer made him
by Mr.. Brown. Sheriff-elect McCaffery al
once acquiesced In Mr.. Hardesty making
the change and later in the day announced
the appointment OF Frank Niemmn as dep.
uty sheriff at Avoca.
