GRAIN MEN SHOULD
 ADMIT BAD PRACTISES

Chicago, February S.-If members of grain exchanges would admit the evils that exist in the exchanges and set to eradicate them instead of denying the existence of any bad features, ex- change men would come into better favor with the public. according to Q. C. F. Merrill, president of the Chicago board of trade. President Merrill spoke before the National Council of North American Grain exchanges today.
 We exchange men know the good far exceeds the bad.'' he said. but there is no good playing the ostrich and burying our heads in the sand in order not to see the evil"
 MT Merrill argued that to stop solic- iting trades in grain from persons who are financially or mentally +hcompe- tent to trade would do- much toward removing the suspicious which sur rounded dealers.
 An increased appropriation for inn provement work was voted.

JUAREz STILL FREE
 FROM REBEL ATTACK Government Troops May Ar rive and Save the City
NAVARRO IS EXPECTED
American Soldiers Are Too Few To Guard the Border Near Fl PasO and Crossing the Line Is
 Very Easy

El Paso, February S.-By way cf vari- ation it is safely predicted that Juarez will not be attacked tonight Whether it is called upon to defend itself at all seemingly depends upon whether General Navarro. at the head of 1000 federals from Chihuahua, or Jose de la Luz Slanco, with $50 insurrectos from Casas Grandes, arrives first
 A report says tonight that Navarro had met with reverse, but it was only a iumor. Wires being down it could not be snvestigated One story was that a train on which he was travelling was been blown no, and another had it that Gen. eral Blanche had met and defeated him.
 With reference to Blanche the rumor is improbable, as he is numerically Inferior to the federal leader.
 If Navarro reaches Juarez first would be folly to all appearances for Orozdo to sttack, even with the assistance of re- Inducements from Alanis and Blanco.
 Alanis was camped last night l2 miles east of here on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande at hamlet called Saragosa. Ammunition was taken across the river at this point and this morning Alanis and his men had disappeared.
 search of the hills in that vicinity failed to disclose his whereabouts, but he and his men are now virtually part of Orozco's forces.
 Five Mexicans, who crossed 10 the Texas side today from Saragosl, esti- mated Alanis' detachment at 200 mounted Infantry.
 There was no word from Blanco. If he left Casas Grandes when ordered to Go so for the second time he should reach this sectionsby Friday night-this, at least, is the way Orozco calculates it. when loo who had been on duty in the mountains joined the S2O men near the umelter.
 They were employed today in digging rifle pits and placing boulders where they would afford the most protection ir case of attack.
 United States soldiers and National Guardsmen detained a total of 2 Mex icans who were attempting to cross the river to the rebel camp. Troops here are numerically inadequate to the task Oi guarding the entire river front. One wishing to cross with arms ammuni- tion has but to hunt a spot where the Khaki are not and the rest is easy Governmental measures to suppress news have not ceased. It began with the publication two months ago of the execution by federal soldiers of wounded prisoners and civilians at Cerro Prieto. An American newspaper man was de- tained for nearly hour at the Juarez jail yesterday to explain, it was alleged, what he had been doing on the Mexican side without a permit He was of fender because he had not secured the said permit.
 Today it was discovered that there have been no such dispensations nor will there be any. Cameras are also ta- booed on the Mexican side.
 The prediction that there would be no attack on Juarez tonight Is based on a statement of Provisional Governor Con- gales. who declared the city would be taken within four days. Also on the fact that Blanco has not arrived and that Orzocos troops today were on the defen- sive rather than advance.

WHY CANADA WANTS
 RECIPROCITY

r Ottawa. February S.-Finance Minister Fielding today took steps to correct what gre regarded here as erroneous impressions ir the minds of public men and 'n the part of leading journals of Great Britain ill regard to the Canadian American re- ciprocity agreement.
 It can be stated that the Canadian government viewed with some alarm the idea reflected by a portion of the Dritish hress that the agreement would have detrimental effect upon the trade between Canada and the mother county and would adversely affect the prefel ence granted to Great Britain. Minister Field ing has taken up the matter with Lord Strathcona, Canada's high commissioner in London, and on behalf of the Canadian government has sent the following cable gram:
 sCanada is seeking markets everywhere for her surplus products, suhsidizing steamship lines and sending out com mercial agents Would 1t not be sidict1- lous in the pursuit of such policy to refuse TO avail herself of the markets or the great nation lying alongside?
 s.The expressed fear that 1t w l serl- ousIy affect imports from Great Srltaih is grourldless. The greater part or tne agreement deals with natural pT'ducts which Great Britain does not send us The range of manufactures affected IS comparatively small and in most cases the reductions are small
 .It appears to be assumed in some ma rters that the tariff rates agreed upon discriminate in favor of the United states and against Great Britain. There IS no foundation for this.
 Tn every case Great Britain Will nave the same rates or lower one Canaaa right to deal with the British preference as she pleases remains untouched py the agreement The adoption of the agree II ent probably will lead to some turtnel revision of the Canadian tariff and the Canadian parliament will be enureiy iree tc fix he British preferential tatnl al any rates that may be deemed proper.
