To Be on Both Sides Of
Reciprocity in Maine.
Claim Credit In Portland, Deny
Il In Farming Districts,
Measure Opposed by Majority Of
Republicans In Congress.

-. washington. d. c., July 17.-(Spe-
ciaD This is the week when Cana
dian reciprocity goes to vote in the
Senate and when, with a majority OF
the Republican senators against 1t in
all probability and practically all the
Democratic senators for it (there will
be two or three exceptions) the bill
goes to the President and becomes
law. 1t undoubtedly will be in force
as far as this country is concerned by
Aug. /.
Senator Johnson of Maine. has voted
against all amendments to reciprocity
although if there had been a record
vote he would have supported the Root
amendment. Representatives Gould
and MeGillieuddy voted for it in the
House. Whether they would have vot
ed for the Root Amendments, had that
passed the Senate and gone back to
the House for concurrence. is open to
conjecture. The Democratic plan very
plainly is to claim all the credit in
Maine for Canadian reciprocity. in
sections where there is demand for
reciprocity, as in Portland, for in
StdilCt, but TO emphasize tnat II is the
Presidents measure and a Republican
measure in the farming sections of the
State.
Whether they can get away with
this sort of a double faced program
in Maine and win reciprocity votes in
Cumberland and anti-reciprocity votes
in Aroostook remains to be demon
strated Perhaps IL is ingenious poll
tics but it is not of the kind that pays
great compliment to the intelligence of
the Maine electorate. Presumably the
Maine folks read the newspapers and
know that the Democrats of House
and Senate have steadily ehampioned
the Canadian reciprocity bill and have
consistently shown great satisfaction
In putting 1t over on the Republi-
cans But for Democratic votes in
the House and for Democratic votes
in the Senate. the reciprocity bill
would still be reposing in some pigeon
hole at the Capitol and would not now
be on the point of becoming law. But
for Democratic support. the extra SEES
sion of Congress probably would not
have been called.

New York, n. Y, Aug. 25.-The

after which setbacks promptly fol-
lowed. A feature was the Offering of

Discussion on the exchange en-
braced the critical railroad labor stu
ton, the depression in London and
on the continent and other adverse
factors.
The heavy offerings of steel came
in large part from the shorts who
used this stock as wespon with
which to assail the general list.
Bonds were steady.
Selling of stocks was resumed at
the opening today with new low rec
ords in Lehigh Valley and Amaiga-
mated Copper, which declined point
each. Of United States Steel, when
5000 shares were sold at a fractional
loss, and Southern Pacific, Reading,
Northern Pacific and Erie were off

gain was q in Canadian Pacific.
The market closed weak. Fractional
rallies came in the last hour, Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific recover
ing a point of their declines, but the
movement otherwise was not convinc-
ing. Lehigh Valley and Reading were
again under pressure. St Paul pre-
ferred declined six.
