Mr. Noon had been suffering from several complications since January EQUIPPED FOR WAR. Pekin. The fear of Russian aggress. on Is Increasing here. Reports published In Russian newspapers and reprinted in Pekin papers greatly exaggerate the dangers from the plague. Chinese Many of the higher class fear a campaign designed to alarm Europe land Justify military occupation. Dispatches from Harbin say Russian military circle? are advocating occupation. The Valdlvostok newspaper print warning of the danger of a boxer uprising, but the Chinese government practically denies the possibility of such a thing, declaring the entire country is under control. The measures taken to combat the plague beyond Harbin are not yet satisfactory to the Russian government, and the frontier Is still closed to Cht- nese. Outbreaks In Manchuria are anilcj- pated owing to the distress occa- sioned by the Jong stoppage of trans- portation and the consequent Inter- ference with trade. Agitators, prob ably affiliated with the boxers, are re-ported to be rousing the superstitious natives, but the government, with the aid of the police. Is limiting their Proclamatons sphere of activity. also are being Issued explaining tne nature of the plague and the measures that must be observed lo pre vent its spread. Within an Hour After Closing Session Call Is Issued for Congress to Meet In Special Session on the Fourth of April. The Blx'v first con Washington gress, heedless of one of the most Important legislative lacks cel before It, came to an end shortly af er noon Saturday Within the hour following Prewl dent Taft had Issued a proi lamatlon calling the new congress to meet In on extraordinary session at noon, 4 sub will He then Tuesday, April mil for ratification to a house over whelmlngly IctmxraUc, mid to U eon a'e barely Republican, the reciprocity agreement with Canada. The McCall bill, carrying that agreement into effect and passed by the house, met on Saturday, at the hands of the old senate, the death freely predicted for It. The permanent tariff hoard bill, forced to Its passage through a re- luctant senate at 6.30 o'clock daY morning, was hurried over to the house, there to be strangled by Democratic filibuster. Congress provided funds to continue tariff the work of the temporary board for another year. It was at tb6 request of the Democrats of the house and senate that President Taft fixed the date of the extra session on April 4. There Is little doubt now that the Democrats of tho house will undertake to revise at least two or three of the schedules of the tariff act, and there Is etery reason also to believe the bills will be favorably received In the new senate. How long the extra session will last While ihe new conIs problematical. gress may promptly ratify the reclp-octtsome Democrats agreement, are In favor of withholding confirmation until two or three new tariff schedules are ready. If tariff differences should arise between the new house and the senate the session unquestionably would be a long one. The old congress ended amid scenes of extraordinary excitement and uncertainty. In the house the disorder at times in the closing Ijoufs, when the successful filibuster against the tariff board bill was In progress, became almost a riot. Retiring Speaker Cannon was eulogized by Champ Clark, who wljl be the' next speaker of the house, Mr. Clark characterizing Speaker Cannon as a "great historical character," and ending his remarks with the declaration that ' "we all wish for the retiring speaker peaee, plenty, prosperity, happiness and length of days. - d Payne-Aldrlc- 28.
