Senate May Prevent a Vote Being
Reached on the Reciprocity Agree.
ment-chief Executive Emphatic in
His 6sllsfstion That Congress Will
BE Reassembled II Treaty Fails.
Washington, Feb 23.-"I'll show
them whether I'm in earnest!"
This statement roared out in stem
torian tones and further emphasized
by a smashing blow of his ponderous
fist on the desk in front of him, is re
ported as President Taft's answer to
the allegations of opponents of the
reciprocity measure that he was not
in earnest in his declared intention of
calling an extra session of congress
in event the senate did not vote on
reciprocity before March 4.
Every effort is being made by the
opposition to reciprocity to create the
impression that there will be no eA
ira session and at the same time TO
persuade President Taft either that he
doesn't really intend to call one or
that to call one would have a disas-
trous effect on the business interests
of the country and his own political
fortunes.
Statements have been made, too.
that it will be possible to get vote
on the bill in the senate before ad
journment, although that is recog-
nized as virtually physical impossi-
bility in view of the other business
the senate must dispose of in the linn
tied time remaining.
The president, it is said authorita-
lively, does not believe ii possible
that a vote will be reached and he is
unalterably determined to call an ex-
ira session. He will not be bluffed by
the avowed opponents of reciprocity,
Situation Is Complicated.
Senator Root, one of the White
House callers, declared after coming
out of the executive offices that it was
impossible to tell whether the senate
would be able to reach a vote on the
agreement or not. Owing to the com.
plicated situation in that body and
the large number of other questions
which it is considering he thought II
doubtful if a vote would be reached.
The suggestion having been that
the Japanese treaty sent to the sen
ate by the president might be sort
of buffer movement the president
made it known that such conjecture
should not be given serious considera-
ton even for moment, because
there was no hurry about the adop
tion of the treaty and a special ses-
sion of the senate could be called to
settle the treaty question.
1t was intimated at the White
House that the treaty was satisfac-
tory to the Pacific coast, that repre-
sentatives of that section had been
consulted during the preparation of
| the instrument, and that they were
satisfied the new treaty would be
more pleasing to their people than
| the existing one.
