ARMY REORGANIZATION AND WAR TAX REDUCTION WIHlArrl fTHDQ ENUMBEiATIOCN- SHOWS FOR THEE DIFFERENT WAiRDaOF THE CdTT AND FOR THE OUTLT ING DISTRICTS. Wahimgton, Nov. 30. President Mc Kinley's annual message will not be presented to congress until Tuesday, as an adjournment will take place when the session opens on Monday out of respect to members Jio have didd during the recess. Wednesday will be the first worday. therefore, an ad journment following the reading of the message on Tuesday. In -the house the war revenue reduc tion and army reorganization bills will probably be reported, and In the senate the first business- taken, up will be the ship subsidy bill, and it will be made unfinished business. One of the measures to be temporar 17 sidetracked is the Nlcaraguan cana :bill. Its consideration will be delayed until action can be had upon the Hay Pauncefote treaty, and until negotia tions now In progress for giving us b solute control of the canal nen it KhaJLliave been concluded. A senator in th wnflnc ths AdnifacuUoi said today .that these negfatare bow near & satory condHioi,-' GemorjFrf, prsMent ot the senatf , will ac as helrman f the oommittee on foreign relations temporarily and possibly until the close of the present congress. After March 4, Senate Lodge will probably succeed" tfeo. the chairmanship made vacant by the death of Senator Davis. THE CAIIAL QUESTEIOII. Washington, Nov. 30. 'President Hu lin, of the Panama Canal company, called by, appointment upon Secretary Hay today and had a talk with him touching the prospects of the Panama canal as affected by the probable leg islation at the approaching congress. The Panama company has as yet made no official tender of the proper cy to the state department. It has, how ever, presented to the isthmian canal commission a full statement of the if fairs of the. company and the conditions upon which it might be willing to pass the control of its property to the United States in the event that the Panama route is chosen. The commission will include Hullin's communication in its report in order that congress may 'have before it the material for exercising a choice be tween the Nlcaraguan and Panama routes. It is probable, -however, that before the latter can be taken under serious consideration a more definite proposi tion as to the exact terms under which the Panama's company's rights could be acquired by the United States will be required. The canal commission is making strenuous efforts to finish its prelimin-, ary report, which, according to prom ise, was to be delivered to- the presi dent today. It is now said the docu ment will be sent to congress as an ac companiment of the president's mes sage, and meanwhile it will probably not be made public. It is evidently the intention of the administration to press canal legislation upon congress earn estly and speedily from the very begin ning of the season. It is expected that before final action can be had in the senate upon thepend ing public bill providing for the con struction of the Nlcaraguan canal the J INDMffiTY Our Consul at Constanti nople so Cables to the State Department, NO INDICATION AS TO THE MAN NER IN WHICH THE PORTE iWTLLi DISCHARGE THE UN-.

REBELLION SPREADING IN SOUTHERN CHIN REBELS SET FIRE TO TWO VILr- LAGES AND MASSACRE THE WO MEN AND CHILDREN ADMIRAL HO RETALIATES Paris, Nov. 30. The statement now appears untrue that several of th ministers at Pekin have signed the pre liminary demands to be presented to the Chinese plenipotentiaries.. .Even the French minister was instructed to sign the note subject to certain reser vations, which will probably convince him that he should not sign at all. The latest news in -official circles is that Japan, Russia and the United States are holding out "for the infliction of penalties on the guilty leaders Instead of decapitation which was demanded in the original note. They are also de manding otfeer ameliorative amend-" ments. , . , The action of Russia places France in an awkward position between her de?lrtta maintain er entente with t&e. ; czar and the fact that Psnch interest Jft flire more assimilated -with those of the English and Germans.
