WILL APPEAL TO CONGRESS

Parts of Its Own State and Several
Other Section Will Compote an
Opposition That I Likely
to Be Successful.
OREGON'IAX NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, June 14. There Is golnp to be a
great deal more talk about reciprocity
with Canada In the next session o Con
gress than there has ever been before.
An earnest effort is being made to work
up a reciprocity sentiment, and those who
have been favoring reciprocity only In a
mild 6ense will probably come out strong
when the movement starts.
At present the organization for reci
procity with Canada Is in Minneapolis,
but It extends to other places in Minne
sota. Other portions of the country be
sides Minnesota want reciprocity with
Canada, and will urge it at the next ses
sion. There Is great disappointment
among the people who favor reciprocity
with Canada over the announcement that
the Joint High Commission will not as
semble, as it was hoped some sort of a
trade agreement would be reached when
this commission again came together.
Why Minneapolis Want It.
Minneapolis wants reciprocity because
the millers want to grind the wheat raised
In Manitoba and tho great plains west of
ihe Saskatchewan River. Thousands of
people have gone from Minnesota and the
Dakotas, from Wisconsin and Iowa Into
Canada, and they are vitally Interested in
bringing about reciprocal agreements.
More than that, they are raising millions
pf bashcls of wheat, and this wheat would
be ground in Minneapolis flour mills If
reciprocal arrangements could be made
which would eliminate the tariff on wheat
that now has to be paid.
There has been talk of grinding this
flojr In a bonded mill, and returning it to
Canada to be shipped to England, but this
floes not satisfy the Millers' Association,
ns all want a share of the grinding. It Is
feared that great mhls will be erected In
Canada and the wheat ground into flour
on the other side of the border if some
arrangement Is not made relieving the
Minneapolis millers of the tariff which
now has to be paid upon wheaf imported
from Canada.
Wlicatffrowera "Will Oppose It.
Of course, as soon as the attempt is
made to bring about a reciprocity agree
ment with Canada, the hundred or more
Interests affected will at once bring about
opposition. It is not likely that the wheat
growers of Minnesota and the Dakotas
will care to have Canadian wheat Im
ported free of duty, especially as the
whet Is sure to be In competition with
their own. They may not be able to see
the danger of mills on the Canadian side,
as the Minneapolis millers do now. They
may believe that If the tariff is kept up
on wheat thfr millers of Minneapolis will
pay higher prices for wheat grown In tho
1'nlted States, especially as the tariff on
Canadian wheat has a tendency to keep it
away from the mills. They may not ap
preciate what the Minneapolis millers do
that the English bread consumers, or at
least the Importers of wheat flour In Eng
land, prefer to cultivate closer relations
with tho big colony north of us by ifelng
flour made of Canadian wheat So It may
be found that Instead of favoring reci
procity agreements, .bringing about free
trade in Canadian-grown wheat, the farm
ers of Minnesota will be deadly opposed to
It, and the city of Minneapolis, which is
using Its strength now to bring about rec
iprocity, will find that its efforts are un
availing. Barley Fight Would Be lien erred.
Of course. If there was anything doing
In the waj of reciprocity the Canadians
would also insist that there be a reduc
tion in the rate upon barley and other
farm products. Barley has always been
a contention In every tariff bill. The
brewers have insisted upon practically
free barley from Canada, while farmers,
or those who said they spoke for them,
have insisted that they enjoy protection on
barley as well as the manufacturer upon
his pioducts. The result is that there Is
a high duty on barley.
Canada will want the duy taken off of
barley as well as off of wheat Again,
the Minnesota farmers, whose representa
tives were instrumental in having, tho
present duty raised to such a high rate.
will probably be brought forward to op
pose that kind of reciprocity.
"Went "Would Join in Protest.
And so It will go all the way down the
line, There will be complaints from the
potato-growers, from the lumbermen,
from the mill operators and from every
other man whose product will come in
competition with that of the Canadians.
Montana and Idaho would make a protest
against any reduction on lead, because
the lead from British Columbia would in
terfere with their products. This would
ramify through several of the mining
states of the Rocky fountain region.
Then, of course, the fishing Interests of
New England would be up In arms against
anything that savored of Interference with
their industry.
Upon the whole It looks very dark for
anything like Canadian reciprocity.
whether the Joint High Commission as
sembles or whether a treaty is negotiated
tUrect. The fact Is, It is very hard to
bring about a reciprocity agreement of a
ratlsfactory character, and no matter how
much thf Minneapolis millers may do In
that direction it is not likely that any
agreement made would prove satisfactory.

OREGONIAJC NEWS BUREAU, Wash-
Ington, June 12. The General Land Of
fice today dropped the charges brought
against Charles E. Dustln, clerk of the
Surveyor-General's ofQce at Portland, by
exrSurveyor-Gencral Meldrum. Meldnim,
aside from assailing the character and
habits of Dustln. alleged that he was re
moving official records from the office to
his home at night.
"When the charges were investigated by
Inspector Green and Surveyor-General
Daly, it was found that it had always
been the custom In the Portland office
for clerks, including the chief clerk, to
take records home at night when it was
desired to rush work. This was all that
had been done by Dustln, and It was held
no offense had been committed. The
other charges were reported to be un
founded, so the Land Office allowed the
matter to drop.
The inspector did And, however, that
before Mcldrum's retirement Dustln made
to him a full answer to all his charges,
which would have been satisfactory to
the department, but Meldrum suppressed
the reply, and the original copy has

be allowed to continue in office as if no
charges had been brought against him.

ROOSEVELT TAKES UP JEW CASE.
President and Russian AmTiassndor
Consider KIshlnef Massacre.
WASHINGTON. June 12. Count Cae
slnl. the Russian Ambassador, had al
most an hour's talk with the President
this afternoon. He called at the White
House at 3 d'clock by appointment, and
was received by the President in the lat
ter's private office, adjoining the Cabinet
room. Ostensibly, the purpose of the
Ambassador's call was to take his formal
farewell of the President, as he Is leav
ing for Russia on the 23d, In accordance
with his custom of s-pending his annual
vacation at home. The Ambassador's
call, however, lasted more than ) mln-
utes, and it is known that his entire time
waa consumed In a review of the situa
tion In Russia growing out of the recent
Jewish atrocities at KIshlnef.
Though nothing concerning the confer
ence could be obtained, either at the
White House or at the Russian Embassy,
it was learned tonight that the discus
sion was general In character. President
Roosevelt, it can be stated. Is keenly In
terested In the representations which
have been made1 to thl3 Government re
garding the treatment of the Jews in
Russia, but he is also keenly alive to the
traditional friendship which the govern
ment of Russia has shown for the United
States.

WATERS RECEDE SLOWLY
St. Louis May Sot Sec the Last of the
Flood for n Month.
ST. LOUIS, June 12. The river continues
to fall steadily, but the Weather Bureau
reports that those who expect to see a
sudden decline will be disappointed. If
the river falls at the same rate as In
1SS2, when there wis a heavy flood, the
levee will be covered for a month yet.
Landsdown. the northeast suburb of
East St. Louis, Is flooded by water from
the reservoir at Hunter's Switch. A swift
torrent Is running under the trestlo at
Lake Station, meeting the backwater from
the south and spreading over Wlnstanley
suburb, south of the Rock road.
At midnight last night the Eist St.
Louis & Suburban Company abandoned
Its car sheds, at Rock road and the Ter
minal Belt The cars there were taken to
sheds at the bluffs.
At 1 o'clock this morning 200 men and a
supply of sacks were hurried out to the
Belt tracks at Landsdown. By daybreak
a levee of dirt bags three feet high and
two feet wide extended along the tracks
for 00 yards opposite the flooded suburb.
If the water continues to rise at the
present rate the fight for the north part
of East St. Louis will be made at this
point.
KANSAS CITY AGAIN ASKS AID.
Local Charity Is Totally Inadequate
to Meet the Situation.
KANSAS CITY. Mo.. June 12. Kansas

"The destitution on the part of the flood
BUffcrcrs in Kansas City, Kan., demands
Immediate relief. Local charity is totally
Inadequate to meet the situation. Outside
assistance is imperative. Two entire
wards and parts of two others, compris
ing by official census in March, 1903. at
least 23,000 out of a population of .000
in the entire city, are made homeless and
dependent. Hundreds of homes have been
swept away and those that remain have
been left with a deposit df filth both

able to save only the clothing they wore.
Their household goods and clothing have
been swept away or destroyed by water
and mud. Kansas City, Kan., has fed and
sheltered these 23.CO0 persons for 11 days.
"While the number dependent on char
ity is gradually diminishing as 'employ
ment opens up. yet there will be many
thousands dependent on charity for food,
clothing and household goods for weeks
to come. The funds raised up to the
present time have been nearly exhausted.
The authorities will be unable to cope
with existing conditions unless the out
side public comes to their aid. The city
officials have inaugurated a vigorous and
effective system for the care of the flood
sufferers Money and supplies In large
amounts will be needed to prevent ex
treme suffering.
All donations from tho general public
should be sent to Thomas B. Gilbert,
Mayor of Kansas City. Kan. Unlike Us

Ware, of the Pension Office, today made
the following explanation of his order of
Wednesday discontinuing the ollclting of
funds for the Kansas flood sufferers In the
Pension Bureaut
"It Is true that I did issue the order, and
I did so for the reason that I am not go
ing to have people In this bureau asked to
contribute funds for suffering Kansas. I
am a Kansan myself, and it would not be
right to have people in the department
asked to contribute to tho relief of the
people of my state."
Mr. Ware added that he had sent In
his check for $500 for those who are In need
of help. His letter accompanying the

SHOOTING LIVE PIGEONS.
Brave "Sportsmen" Malm Tender-
Eyed, Helpless Pets.
Omaha World-Herald.
About two yeary ago I was called upon
to witness as a reporter of a large dally
a pigeon shoot, at which some of the
most celebrated marksmen of the day
were present and took part. Prior to en
tering the park where the-shoot was to
take place I was under the Impression
that 'my assignment had been so " much
better than my fellows that they must
surely envy me. But whatever their feel
ings they were unexpressed. I went to
the park and carefully noted the prepara
tions for the great event Inspected the
pigeon coops, where were thousands of
plglons, each one decorated by Blvlne hand
in tho most beautifully tinted colors, ap
parently happy. If not contented. In the
narrow confines of the wire netting. The
traps were also noted It being my flr3t
experience In such a reportorlal line and,
In fact, everything that appeared to- bs
of any Importance about the place, .was,
made note of; that the editor could find
no fault with my report.
Among the nhooters were men of whom
I had read In various papera, and they
Impressed me as a fine lot of teuows, and.
not at all "swelled" by international
reputations.
The shooting began. A number of men
stood at the line, while others were ad
vanced according to the. handicap they
were entitled to. The first bird was let
out of the trap. It proved a swift flyer
and went away directly opposite to where
the shooters stood. The shooter let go both
barrels and the fun" was on. After
the bird waa over the park fence I could
hear a rattle of all kinds of firearms,
from zulus to pistols, from the score of
gunners lying there for just such
chances. But the bird was a good dodger
and I could watch him a mile away go
ing into the sky.
At intervals the birds were sprung from
the half dozen traps. Some got away
badly wounded, and even escaped the out
side shooters. Others went down at the
first barrel. Those that dropped Inside
the fence were brought back to the shoot
ing box and piled In several large heaps.
Some were frightfully mangled, while oth
ers had but a single pellet In a vital part.
My feelings had undergone a great
change in the last half of the shoot. All
I noted was when some great biped, stand
ing with the butt of his gun resting on his
shoulder, gave the word to spring the trap.
Up came the bird. Sometimea he would
not fly at all, and the shooters pouredthe
hot shot Into his beautlfur body with re
morseless energy, and he dropped over
dead. Poor birds. Many of them had
been pets of some persons, and they were
not frightened when released; they looked
at the deadly gun without fear, "until
the butcher cut them down." as George
Primrose sings In his famous nong.
And this slaughter, with apparently the
most vindictive spirit went on. reat.
burly men wantonly killing beautiful pig
eons Just for "sport."
I had to stand and watch this brutality
and be considered to an outsider as a
spectator to such a scene. My feelings,
controlled by my anxiety ta do well the
task I had been sent to do, were to seize
a gun and kill the first man who shot an
other bird. That would at least be as
humane as the slaughter of the pigeons
who, absolutely defenseless, were killed
without the slightest Bhow of mercy-.
The sight that day I shall never forget. I
see the whole thing now with vividness.
Sport! Two men fighting a duel with
meat axes would be a fair and yaiiare en
counter, but such slaughter of Innocent
birds Is inexcusable In this enlightened
day.
