Washington-If administration SEN
ators had any doubt about the atti-
tude of President Taft toward the
Canadian reciprocity agreement 1t
was removed when Senators Crane
and Carter returned to the Capitol
from a conference with the President
at the White House.
The message which these senators
brought to their colleagues was that
there must be a vote on the agree
ment at the present session or Con-
gress will be called back in extra ses-
sion almost Immediately after ad-
1ournment March 4th.
The only doubt appears whether
senator's radically opposed to its en-
ectment will be able by obstructive
tactics to prevent its adoption by the
Senate.
The President apparently entertains
TO such doubt. % $40
The reciprocity matter has moved
into the foremost place in the legis-
lative purview and the President
shows every disposition to keep it
there If he can.
It is said upon excellent authority
that Mr.. Taft believes the present
Congress will act fayorably in both
houses upon the agreement and that
there will be no necessity for an extra
session. Every Indication now fore
casts It's adoption by the House by an
overwhelming majority.

We lad a conference with three of

offieers Of the Illinois Central railroad
would not and could not discuss a new

might be done in the usual formal
manner that has heretofore prevailed,
and for which the contracts provide,
and which also stipuIate tina thirty
days notice shall be given by either
party of a desire to change the terms
OF the same. Their attention was call
ed to the fact that the Illinois Central
had always lived up to both the letter
and spirit of these contracts and that
it expected its employees, as parties to
the same, to do likewise"
