President Desires the Ratification of
Reciprocity Agreements With the
Cuban Republic.
Washington. Special.-Advices re
ceived here indicate that President
Roosevelt will call the Senate in ex
traordinary session early in Novem
ber. Ever since it became evident
that nothing would be accomplished
as to reciprocity with Cuba, at the re
cent session of Congress, rumors of a
more or less definite nature have
been in circulation that the President
would call an extra session, either of
the entire Congress to enact Cuban
reciprocity legislation. or of the Sen
ate to ratify, If possible, a reciprocal
treaty with Cuba. During the past
week it has been stated that it was
the purpose of President Roosevelt to
call a special session of the Senate as
early as September. It can be stated
by authority that he has no such inten
tion. His time and that of many mem
bers of the Senate of both political
parties will be completely occupied
during September and October.
It is understood to be the belief of
the President that a session of the
Senate held for the purpose of ratify
Ing a reciprocity treaty with Cuba
would be much more likely to be
fruitful cf results if it is held after
the November elections than if it was
held before. It is assured that the
questions of the relations of the Uni
ted States with Cuba will enter large
ly into the approaching campaign
and- it is stated thac the President
feels ~ the Democrats will be likely
to offer the less serious opposition to
a reciprocity treaty after the election
than they would before that time. A
treaty with Cuba practically has been
prepared. It requires only the finish
ing touches and the signatures of
Minister Quesda and Secretary of
jtte Hay, to make it ready for pre
stion to the Senate. No definite
gate. it is uiidefrtgoCThas been fixed
apon for the meeting of the session
in November, but that it will be soon
after the election is reasonably cer
tain. The President, it is said, hopes
to have the reciprocity question
cleared away entirely before the
regular session of Congress.

SOUTHERN INDUSTRIAL
A North Carolina Enterprise.
Mr. M. DeW. Stevenson writes from
New Berne, N. C., to the Manufac
turers' Record as follows:
"The proposed Pamlico, Oriental &
Western Railroad is to extend from
the city of New Berne via Bayboro,
Stonewall, Oriental and Vandemere
to a point near the mouth of Goose
Creek, all except New Berne being in
Pamlico county. It is about fifteen or
sixteen miles from New Berne to Bay
boro, which is the county town of
Pamlico; about ten miles from Bay
boro to Oriental, about six miles from
Oriental to Vandemere and about
twelve miles from Vandemere to the
mouth of Goose Creek, making the
whole road about forty-three miles
long. There will be a bridge across
the Neuse river at New Berne, where
the road will connect with the At
lantic & North Carolina Railroad,
which runs from Morehead City to
Goldsboro. New Berne is also the
northern terminus of a branch of the
Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, which
runs from Wilmington to New Berne.
"Pamlico county Is finely situated
between the Neuse and Pamlico rivers
and Pamlico Sound. Bay river runs
from Bayboro to the Sound, and is
navigable up to - Bayboro. The lands
of Pamlico are very productive, the
principal crops being cotton, corn and
truck, afid there are large quantities
of timber, mostly pine. I understand
that there have recently been sales
of large tracts of land in this county
to citizens in a Western State. Pamli
co is one of the few counties of North
Carolina in which there are no rail
roads. The people of the county are
anxious to have the road built. They
have recently voted to issue $50,000 of
30-year bonds to make a subscription to
the capital stock of the company. It
is contemplated that the city of New
Berne will also subscribe."
Textile Notes.

Governor McSweeney; and the Incident - -
of the "Jim" Tillman-DeCamp episode,
a few weeks ago, Is still fresh in the
minds of the people. But today two
would-be Senators came to actual
blows, and all about a small matter. It
happened In this way: At the senato
rial and congressional candidates meet
Ing held here In the cou -t house Thurs
day, Congressman Latimer was the
last speaker. When hiE turn came the
dinner hour had arrived and a majority
of the 500 in the audie'ice left. Latt
mer did not want to sieak to the de
pleted crowd and asked permission of
the chairman to be allowed to postpone
is speech until after dinner, the time
lotted to the Congressmen. The mat
rwas left to a vote and it was or
ed that his speech saould not be
tponed. Latimer jumped up and
:"I want you all to come back
and hear me, for these five law
have been jumping on one poor
- and I am going to answer'
t. . As they were leaving the bar
of the court room, He mphill said:
"Latime:- you ought not. to say that, .'
for none of us have bee1 jumping on
you today, and you know 1L. It has al
ways been our rule to end a. meeting
before we stop and W will not be right
to infringe upon the tim3 of the Con

Latimer: "You want to make me
speak to empty beniches; you care noth
ing for the Congressmen."
Hemphill: "I do 4:are for the Con
gressmen, and you know it."
By this time they werE facing each
other, and both very angry.
Latimer: "I know tha: you don't care
for them."
Hemphill: "G-d d-n you, you know
that Is not true."
Latimer then drew back and hit
Hemphill a stunning blow >n the cheek.
Several men jumped in b 3tween therm
and the driving blow sent by Hemphifl
at his antagotist fell short of its mark.

of the Intervening men, but he could
