THE MOKNINQ OEEGOXIANv RTRIDAY, MARCH 13, lOOST FTOUICKftCTlON Extra Session of Con gress on Cuban Treaty. TO BE CALLED IN OCTOBER This Will Avoid Delay in Ap proval by the House. OF GREAX BENEFIT TO CUBANS President Lays Plan to Admit This Tear' Sagar Crop at Reduced Duty Rocalar Session "Will Be Too Late. President Roosevelt Intends to call an xtra session of Congress la October to secure the approval by tho House of the Cuban treaty. His purpose Is to give the Cubans the reduction la duty on this year's sugar crop. The agreement of the majority In the Senate to make the treaty subject to the approval of the' House probably eared it from being talked to death or being further delayed. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash ington. March 12. (Special.) It Is the present Intention of .President Roosevelt to call an extra eesslon of both "branches of Congress to convene October next, with a view to taking action looking to putting Into operation the pending Cuban reci procity treaty. Tho treaty comes too late to be of benefit to the raisers of last year's crop of Cuban sugar, as the crop Is harvested In November. By securing oarly action on the treaty, however, aa now proposed, the President hopes to give the Cubans the benefit of the reciprocity agreement by the time their next crop of sugar is put upon the market. He believes that, if the treaty is allowed to wait until tho regular session. It may be delayed, from one cause or another, until it goes over and becomes operative after the next crop is marketed. Prompt action would be assured in a special session called for the one specific purpose. There would be nothing gained in calling an extra session at this time, and, furthermore, it would interfere to some extent with the President's proposed "Western trip, which he desires shall be as long and extended as possible. ENK3IIES OF CUBA FOILED. Agreement Regarding Treaty Pre vents Talking It to Death. OREGON IAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, March 12. The action of the Sen ate - committee on foreign relations, In deciding that the Cuban reciprocity treaty should not go Into effect until after the House had approved It. clarifies the at mosphere and makes the way clear for the adoption of the treaty. Had this not been done, there would have been a long Con stitutional debate on the subject, prob ably long enough to prevent ratification, as the Senate would not remain in eesslon to listen to a dry discussion of that char acter, when it became apparent that the opponents of the treaty wanted either to defeat or postpone it This provision also removes tho possibility of legal objections being raised against the treaty after it is once ratified and put in operation. The main object will be accomplished Jn ratifying the treaty now, as the Cubans can confidently rely upon favorable action in the House and the ultimate granting of reciprocity between the two govern ments. It looks as If the cane-sucar men, the representatives of fruit-growing states and the beet-sugar men had made up their minds to prevent ratification, or at least postpone it, "and were merely seeking a method to do, so by bringing up the Con stitutional Question. This being removed, there seems to be no doubt now of final action. One of the strong arguments in favor of the Cuban reciprocity treaty of late has been not so much the benefits to Cuba, but the fact that the United States will practically secure control of the Cuban markets and that tho benefit will be as great to this country as to the island.

AUTHORITY WITH A STRING. Chinese Diplomats Not Allowed to Blake Final Bargain. WASHINGTON, March 12. The plenipo tentiaries of the powers who are engaged at Shanghai In negotiating trade treaties with the Chinese Commissioner? have dis covered what they regard as flaws in the credentials of the Chinese agents which may make it impossible for them to bind their government to treaty form. The matter already has been brought to the attention of the State Department, and Mr. Conger is asking for advice, he, too, being engaged in the negotiations. It appears that tho Chinese Commission ers must memorialize the throne before the treaties will have force, and the pow ers object to this lack of authority on the part of the Commissioners. Because Mr. Conger will have to refer any treaty he may draw up to his Government here for approval, precisely .as the Chinese Com missioners must do on their side, the United States Government is not in a po sition to protest very strongly against the sufficiency of the Chinese credentials, so that Mr. Conger will go on with this treaty making, while doing his best to have the Chinese credentials enlarged. WILL CHECK RITUALISM. 3err Arshbishop Promises Action Without More Legislation. NEW YORK, March 12.-The church discipline bill which comes up in the Commons tomorrow, says the London correspondent of the Tribune, raises an awkward Issue for Unionist members holding moderate views. They sought refuge in an appeal to the Archbishop of Canterbury for the repression of novel practices and advanced ritualistic serv ice into the English Church. Sir John Dorrlngton headed an influential deputa tion, which did not Include Lord Hugh Cecil and other controversial members. Archbishop Davidson, who evidently had been in consultation with Mr. Balfour, de livered an unexpectedly aggressive reply. While he minimized the extent to which the extreme practices had been carried, he admitted that toleration had passed proper limits and promised that the bish ops would take drastic measures. The archbishop's address will probably enable the bulk of the Unionists to vote against the church discipline bill, es pecially as it deprives the bishops of vote or discretionary power.
