Ingram at Home. Washington, Aug. 12. Advices received here indi cate that President Roosevelt will call the Senate in Extra ordinary session early in November. Ever since it became evident that nothing would be accomplished as to reciproci ty, with Cuba at the recent session of Congress, rumors of a more or less definite nature the President would call an tire Congress to enact Cuban the Senate to ratify, if possible, a reciprocity treaty with Cuba. Washington, Aug. 13. 110 justification for the revival dent intends to call the Senate a reciprocity tre.tty with Cuba. night from Oyster Pay is undoubtedly a personal expres sion of the President's views. the same frame of mind as when Congress adjourned. He is determined that concessions shall be granted as soon as possible, but if he should receive assurances from the party leaders that Congress during next session will take definite action he will abandon all effort to force any reciprocity treaty through the Senate 1 efore the regular time of meet ing.

INGRAM AT HIS OLD HOME. Albany, Aug. 13. Ingram, the pardoned convict, who lost a leg in the penitentiary fight with Tracy and Merrill, has returned to his old home at Albany. Ingram sa3s that the recent newspaper story from Salem about him being shot by Merrill accidently is entirely untrue. He met Merrill, as stated in the recent story, while the latter was looking for a ladder, aud attempted to take the rifle away from him. He says that Merrill undoubtedly shot him purposely. He also says that the papers gave Tracy too much of the credit for the outbreak and consequent flight. He cousiders Merrill just as bad a man as his companion in crime. Although Tracy did the most of the shooting when they escaped, it was probably by an agreed plan that Alernu should get the ladder while lracy took care of the guards. He also says killed one of the guards. MINERS RELEASED. Parkersberc, W. Va., Aug. 12. Judge Jackson today released Thomas Haggerty and six other members cf the United Mineworkers who were serving 60 and c" i.v; in jail for contempt of court. The prisoners filed a petition for lelease, alleging that they had not known they were violating the injunction when they did so and promising not to do so again. Attorneys for the coal companies op posed their release, but it was granted subject to rearrest to complete the original sentence if they violated the induc tion again. ACROSS THE OCEAN IN FIVE DAYS.
