HAY CALLED CONFERENCE
Reciprocity Treaty Still in
Havana" Could Not Be
Produced
JNITED STATICS SEMI-OFFICIALLY
IGNORANT OF CHARACTER OF
CHANGES PRESIDENT; PALMA
WISHESTO MAKE IN DOCUMENT
MAY BE ADJUSTED. i
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. An im-
lrtant conference bearing n the sub
ject of Cuhan reciprocity was -held at
the War Department today, the" par
ticipants being Secretaries Hay and
Root and General Lasker Bliss. The
latter wm called Into the conference at
Secretary Hay' suggestion becsuse of
his expert knowledge of the existing
Cuban tariff. Before the conference at
the War Department, Secretary Hay
hid thl? subject with Senator
('ullom, chairman of . the Senate com
mittee "on forclKn relations, and also
with Senor Qucsad l. the Cuban Minis
ter here. Kehor Qucada was not able
to- submit to Secretary Hay the draft
of the reciprocity treaty, which has
been under consideration so long by
the authorities at Havana, as the doc
uments have not yetleft that place.
Seml-offlclally the United States Gov
ernment continue'. In Ignorance of the
extent and character of the changes.
If ajiy, which President Pal ma may de
sire lo maka jn the treaty. In other
than official aources, however, has de
'elopel pretty clearly ; the disposition
of the Cuban President in this matter.
The cardinal objection of Presldent
Palma to the treaty as it stands is the
Insufficient rebate of 20 peri cent pro
posed to be allowed on Cuban imports
into the United Statftn. and Secretary
Hay's purpose is to ascertain If possi
ble how far. he can yield In that mat
ter and sttli be able, to rely upon the
support of ongress next session, when
the. treaty Is submitted. So far his adr
vices do not favor any increase"of the
rebates, and. Indeed, he' has been as
sured 'by some persons with , whom he
has talked that under no conditions
would Congress consent to any sub
stantial Increase of this rebate.
It is understood that the Cubans, too,
are -entirely unwilling to accept any
smalt Increase. In the face of the
great shortage. In the European cror
and a rapldfy rising market, they have
acquired confidence In their ability to
get along for an IndeTlnlte period of
time without reciprocity with the
United States, and It is understood
they are showing an . indifference In
the prosecution of the treaty negotia
tions which Ii serving in turn to stim
ulate the efforts J of our own negotia
tors. : . '' , .
President Talma wakes the point
that conditions have changed In Cuba
so that where the 20 per f cent rebate
might have served when ; It was first
proposed. It would at present afford so
little relief as not to warrant the sac
rifice of Cuban revenues that would be
involved In Its acceptance.
Secretary Hay has , determined to
clear up that polnL and to that end,
after talking with Secretary Root today
It was decided that General BIts should
be sent at nce to Cuba to make a per
sonal Investigation of the Industrial
situation and the fiscal possibilities f
the Island. So it l lmrobab!e that
pendng his return from bis Cuban
it,. EHia rw-narttnent can . au-
vance the treaty negotiations in
any
way.

MALHEUR OIL FIELDS
WILL BK DEVELOPED INDICA
TIONH ARK UCTTKIl THAN
TEXAS OK CALIFORNIA.
HAKEH CITY, Nov. 12. Business
men, capitalists, mine brokers and oth
ar residents of this city having .Inter
ests In the Malheur county oil ffc-H are
Jubilant over the news which ha ben
spread about during the past two weeks
that a California concern is to asulst
owners of. oil lands In de-eloplng the
property. An aurent of the. Hear Htate
magnates has visited Malheur, nd
declares that the Indications are more
favorable thannhose of Texas or Cali
fornia. The representative came here as a
stranger, and withheld. his identity. In
reality he wall no agent for a single
company, but was sent by executives
afc the hea.l'of a combine which Was
recently effected in California to con-,
trol the oil output of that state. This
combine now furnishes oil for fuel pur
jjoses being used up Columbia snd
Willamette river steamboat The Houth
ern Pacific Company is also said to be
burning oil upon Its locomotives run
ning east from San Francisco, which
Is contracted for by the combine,.
The object of securing,' holdings In
Malheur is to facilitate the furhlxhlng
of fufl and Illuminating oil to Port
land buyers and others at Coast cities
in the. Northwest not accessible to
eay transportation and chap rates
from the Hay City. The oil men cal
culate that a short time will wltnens
the shipment of many gallon of oil
dally to the ihetropfJls for fuel, and the
trade of Eastern Oregon generally in
creaaed as a direct result.
Tha big Ilirsch syndicate of Port
land, which has been operating a drill
uroh Its Malheur property since last
summer, has suspended operations, and
this hum given rise to the opinion that
the operatots struck oil. or at least ex
cellent indications. The syndicate has
been extremely reticent 'as to the pro
gress made, and what has been ac
complished In their well Is a mystery
to all but employes. The workmen are
silenced, and no Idea of the work there
has ever gained currency. .
According .to recent, rulings of the
Government officials. It has been de
termined" all land located as oil claims
during the past year may be-retaJned
by the original holders for another
year, one year's eaaesement work to be
accomplished In the two periods. Prop
erty taken in ItOl must be held by as
sessments, and If all has not been thus
developed y January 1st, it will revert
to Uncle Fam, and will Immediately be
open for relocation. It Is reported the
reason the Hirsch plant Is silent Is be
cause thtr company has made a good
strike and Is resting from ita I born
to pounce upon land forfeited at the
opening of the ensuing year.
Baker City Js the home of innumer
able companies formed from among thei
property owners in Malheur, and th
solving of the problem- of developing
the fields means much to the city at
large. '
