RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA.
Agreement Already Reached That Will
Materially Reduce Duties.

Washington, Jan, 20.-Within two
weeks from the date that the Cana
dian reciprocity commissioners began
their conferences in Washington. an
agreement had been reached so far as
the executive branches of the govern
ment of the United States and Canada
are concerned that viii result in sub
stantial reductions of customs duties
on a number of products. natural and
manufactured of the two countries.
The commissioners met at the state
department today for the purpose of
making a careful comparison of the
various schedules involved in the ar
rangement to make sure that no err
ror had crept or that nothing remain
ed to cause conflicting construction in
the future. Acting precisely in ac-
cordance with the announcement con-
taned in the statement given to the
press when the commissioners first
met. even today with an agreement
practically reached the individual
commissioners felt themselves bound
to refrain from giving the least inti-
nation as to the products affected by
their negotiations and that informa-
ton would be withheld until the ses-
sions are ended when formal an
nouncement of the result will be made.
As soon as that is done. the President
will take the necessary steps to bring
the matter to the attention of Congress.
While the usual course in such cases is
to submit draft treaty to the Senate for
approval and accompany this with {, pro-
Ject for legislation to make the necessary
changes in the tariff schedules, il is pos
sible that there will be Il departure from
the established order in the case of the
Canadian reciprocity project. This looks
to the abandonment of the treaty. entire

No reason is seen why all purposes will

resolution by both Senate and House,

so far as they relate to Canadian pro-
duets only. 1t is presumed that the ca
madam Legislature can deal with the sub
ject in the same way, in which case there
would be no occasion for the intervention
of the imperial authorities or for a treaty
of any kind The commissioners expect
tnat the conference tomorrow will con-
cfde the negotiations.

CAPITAL JOTTiNGS.

The Cahll Iron Works at Chatta-
nooga, Tenn, one of the defendants
in the governments prosecution of the
so-cailed Bath Tub Trust, has changed
its answer to the governments civil
suit, and has entered what III Grim

The treasury department Friday
made a customs ruling of immense i'm
portance to American fishermen. 1t
provides in effect that fish caught in
foreign waters by foreign ships and
brought to ports of the United States
by American fishermen will no longer
be entered free of duty. Fish caught
in foreign waters where fishing is
permitted by international agreement
still will be free of duty if taken by an
American vessel with an American
master and crew. Any fish which such
a vessel might buy from foreign
fisher will be subject to duty.
The fact that Charles D. Norton,
secretary to the President would re-
tire from that position in the more or
less near future and return to private
business in Chicago, was disclosed
Friday in connection with the pro-
posal to increase the salary of the
position from $4,000 to $4,000. 1t was
stated in the SUBJ committee of the
Senate committee on finance that
while Mr.. Norton strongly urged the
increase in connection with the re-
organization of the executive staff at
the White House. he had declared he
would not himself be the beneficiary.
Japan wants peace. There is not
