The President, introduced by Gov.

that he hoped within the next few days

Boston. july 21.-Undaunted by the
refusal of both the attorney general
and the Legislature to act on the
question whether the manufacture

monopoly and a menace to the shoe
Industry. Gov. Foss sent message TO
the Legislature today urging that some

The controversy began a week ago,
when the attorney general in reply
to an inquiry from the Governor as to
whether something might not be dens
to break the alleged monopoly quoted
certain anti monopoly statutes and Of
fered to proceed against the alleged
trust if the facts warranted. A mes
sage to the Legislature from the Cow

rules replied that the act of May 81,
operative June 81. furnished the rernes

monopolies.

the Senate Lorimer committee of the

Canadian Agreement Bill
viii Pass Senate.
Sixty Out Of 81 Votes PTuba-
bly, Cast for Measure Today.
Majority Of Republican insurgents
Fight TO Last--The Days Work.

Washington, July 21.-The most Bit
ter fight for legislation wased by any
administration in many years will
close tomorrow when the Canadian
reciprocity bill, an issue before two
sessions of Congress. will be passed by
the Senate by a decisive vote.
That at least so senators. out of a
total membership of 81. will vote in
favor of the measure, was predicted to-
night by senators of both political par
ties This vote will include all but four
or five of The Democrats and will in
clude also a great proportion of Re-
puhlieans Opposed to the bill Will be
a majority of the Republican 1nsur-
gents. who GENE from Northwestern
states. few of the Republican Regu-
lars and handful of Democrats.
For time today. the Senate leaders
hoped they might get the bill to the
President before he leaves for BeEer-
" tomorrow. but visit by Senators
Penrose and Crane. to Speaker Clark
of the House soon dispelled this expec-
tation. The Speaker explained it would
be impossible to hold the House In
session long enough to receive the
message.
It is not expected that the Senate
session tomorrow will be greatly pro
lenged. but the House having little to
do rarely has quorum these days. That
being likely tomorrow as the speaker
pointed out. 1t was agreed that the
plan was impracticable. As the House
adjourns from tomorrow until next
Wednesday. the bill cannot be received
until the latter date.
The measure has not been and un-
doubtedly will not be changed in any
respect by the Senate and when it is
signed by the Speaker and the Vice
President it will be dispatched to the
President.
Senator La Toilette figured chiefly
in the speech making today with a
vigorous arraignment of President
Taft and the bill. He attacked the
Democrats of the Senate on the
ground that they were deliberately
trying to carry the tariff issue over to
the next campaign for political pur-
poses. and pointed out that the Demo-
Gratis had consistently voted down
amendments proposing general tariff
reductions. Their excuses he said
were that the President would not
sign the reciprocity bill if it was en-
numbered with any general tariff
amendments.

Arbitration Treaty May Be
Claimed by Three States,
Probable That Agreement Is 10
Be Signed al Beverly.


washington. July 21.-For the second
time within a decade New England
may claim the birthplace of one Of the
great treaties that make world bistor1,
~ II may De that the general arbitra-
Jun treaty VIII be known as the treaty
VI i,eFeiiy just as the peace pact CON
ciuoeu between Russia and Japan was
KNOWN as the treaty of Portsmouth
IL was intended that the arbitration
convention should be signed in Wash
ingtsn and indeed, hope has not vet
been. abandoned that this NAV be the
case. But events are shaping so that
the delays arising in the closing DAYS
of the negotiations should make IL i'm
possible to conclude them before Taft
leaves for his summer home in Mass,
chusetts.
Although the British government hos
already practically given its assent To
the treaty, it is the wish of the Pres
fdent and Secretary Knox that this i'm
portant agreement be given a truly in
ternational character which can be
had only by the assent of more than
two great powers.
Ambassador Jusserand now in Paris
is doing his best to induce the French
government to become a party to the
treaty. If this is assured in the imme-
date future, il is entirely possible that
the ceremony of signing the treaty will
be deferred long enough to permit NJ.
Jusserand to hasten to America to
place his name upon 1t. The President
has shown SO much interest in the sub
Ject that he doubtless would be desir-
GUS of witnessing the conclusion of the
treaty
