NO ACTION ON RECIPROCITY
Too Many Measures Ahead OF the
Canadian Agreement and Extra
Session Seems Probable.

Washington.-An extra session of
Congress looms very large and prob
able. Unless President Taft and the
friends OF the Canadian reciprocity
agreement are able to bring more than
ordinary pressure to bear on the sen
ate and avert the expenditure of time
by the opponents of the agreement
or It's friends-it is difficult to see
how the senate can reach q vote be-
fore adjournment.
Ahead Of the Canadian agreement
for consideration. in addition to ten
general appropriation bills, are cas-
ures affecting these subjects: Pop
ular election of senators. Senator
Lorimer case. Permanent tariff board.
General age pensions. Congressional
apportionment. Fertilization of the
Panama canal.
Not one of these can be ~sidetracked
without a contest. Back of each is a
group of determined senators insist
ent that a vote shall be taken. Some
oil the measures must be left %unpassed
or the Canadian agreement will die.
The foregoing Is the opinion of Re-
publican leaders of the senate.

TOWN PILLAGED AND BURNED
Many Atrocities Committed by Hay
tlen Troops After They Had De.
feated Handful of insurgents.

Cape Haytien.-Government troops.
AFTER recapturing Onanaminrh from
the rebels, got out OF the control OF
their Officers, pillaged and burned the
town and massacred those of the In
habitants who were unable to escape.
Jeane Properi. a citizen OF France,
was assaulted, his ~18-year-old son
killed and their home burned.
The insurgents had captured Fort
Liberty and Ouanaminth. President
Simon set out for the cisafrected ter
ritory at the head OF five columns of
troops. He was accompanied by his
daughter, Celestina. The army occu-
pied Fort Liberty without fighting.
Nevertheless a large number of ar
rests OF those suspected OF treachery
to the government were made and
the suspects shot to death.
The army then moved on % Guiana
ninth. The rebels In possession Of
fered resistance and sanguinary fight
ing followed.
The rebels were soon beaten back
but the officers could not stop the
advance of their men. The soldiers
got out Of hand and the massacre that
followed was horrible. The lnhabi-
tants who had not fed were killed
and the town burned.
Meanwhile another force under Min
lister of the Interior Jeremei captured
the town OF Valerie to the south of
Ouanaminth and it is expected that
this will be burned.
The killing OF a Frenchman by the
soldiers may result in complications
with France.

GENERAL BoNILLA INDICTED.
Charges of Conspiracy are Brought
Against Honduran Leader.

New Orleans.-The Honduran revo-
lutlonary situation was further compli-
Gated Saturday by the indictment in
the federal court here of General
Manuel Bonilla, provisional president
OF Honduras, General Lee Christmas,
Colonel Florian David and Joseph w.
Beer, charged with violating the neu-
trality laws in connection with the
tlibustering expedition of the steamer
Hornet.
The indictments resulted from an
Investigation instituted by the depart
ment Of justice at Washington. The
action of the grand jury caused a sen
sation here, especially in view of the
fact that in the past numerous revolu-
tionary expeditions directed against
Central American countries have left
this port without secrecy.
