URGES CANADIANS TO
ACCEPT RECIPROCITY
Finance Minister Says BUI la a Good
Thing for Tliut Coun
try.
OTTAWA. Ont., July 25 —Financs
Minister FleWing urg“s a trial of re
ciprocity in a long statement pub
lished here today in which he declares
that if the agreement proves unprofit
able to Canada It may be suspended
at any time. "There is nothing per
manently binding about it.” he urges,
"as either country can withdraw at
any time. I challenge the opposition
to let It pass now. Then we will have
an election In a year. If, as the op
position says reciprocity will prove a
bad thing for Canada the people will
have had a year's test of It and will
return the conservatives to power to
form a new government and cancel the
■reciprocity agreement. But reciproc
ity will prove a good thing for the
whole country. It is a good thing for
the Canadian manufacturer that we
have achieved reciprocity without im
portant concessions in manufactured
articles. But let me give a word of
advice to Canadian manufacturers
who. needlessly alarmed, are opposing
reciprocity. I believe that they are do
ing an injury to their own interests as
well as those of Canada. Jf. per
chance, these manufacturers succeed
in preventing a great new market be
ing opened to the farmers of Canada
there will arise In the western coun
try a storm cloud which will grow un
til the end will be a change in the
fiscal policy of Canada which is not
now completed.”

LONG DROUTH
OVER THE STATE
BROKEN TODAY
Rainfall During Past Twenty
four Hours Is Heaviest
Since Last May,
SNOW FALLS IN THE NORTH
Cool Wind Which Precedes the
Rain In San Antonio Breaks
the Long Hot Spell.
The longest drouth in Texas sine*
1901, was broken yesterday when *
general rain set in all over th* stat*,
according to the United State* weath
er bureau's report today. While some
sections were visited by only light
showers, many other sections receiv
ed a generous amount of moisture
and the parched earth, which has
been dally becoming more parched
since May 12, eagerly soaked up the
water.
Reports from North and Central
Toxas show a rainfall of more than
two Inches yesterday. Southwest
Texas has been scarcely less favored,
the rainfall in the vicinity of San
Angelo yesterday having been slightly
over two inches, while other portions
of the southwestern part of the state
were favored with rainfall in slightly
lesser amounts.
San Antonio ha* only received .4
of an inch of rain so far. but Indica
tions are that more rain will fall dur
ing the day or tonight. The fall in
the city and vicinity has hardly been
sufficient to lay the dust and cool the
air. but there is a hope that it will be
recorded in greater quantity during
the next twenty-four hours.
First Since May 12.
Other cities were favored, however,
and by the reports received today the
rainfall is shown to be 1.88 inches at
Corpus Christi. 1.14 at Cuero. 1.16 at
Dallas. 1.34 at Dublin. 1.54 at Waco,
2 at Columbus and 2.42 at Waxa
hachie.
This is the first general rainfall
since May 12. On June 22, San An
tonio received .3 inches and some oth
er cities received as much as one inch
of moisture. During July a few scat
tering showers relieved the heat, but
the present rain, taking the state a* a
whole, is the heaviest in months.
The hot spell, caused by the lack of
rain, brought little discomfort, how
ever. in comparison with that caused
by the heat wave which swept over
the northern and eastern parts of the
country. San Antonians have been
comfortable all the summer, while
the residents of cities supposedly 1n
the cool regions of the north, have
been sweltering.
Good Night to Sleep.
At that, the cool wind which swept
down upon the city yesterday after
noon was welcomed. It caused a drop
in temperature from 99 degrees at 3
o'clock to 87 at 4 o’clock. From 4 to
6 the temperature decreased to 84 and
the night was a sleep-inducing one. It
grew decidedly chilly before daylight
a.id at 6 o'clock this morning the low
est temperature, 71 degrees, was regis
tered.
A drop In the temperature ts report
ed all over the state and several west
ern and central states were swept by
a veritable cold wave last night. Snow
is reported from points in Ohio and
Michigan and a territory of consider
able extent was affected by the sud
den change.

his possession the valuation of the In
ternational & Great Northern Rail
road company placed thereon by the
railroad commission. Judge T. J. Free
man, receiver of the company, leaves
tonight from Houston to submit the
matter to the new owners of this
property. A few days ago a story was
printed in this paper that the com
mission had determined on a valua
tion. but it was not made public. This
1s now confirmed, but still the figures
have not been given out. It is not
believed, however, that the commis
sion has allowed the $35,000,600 ap
plied for. and before any attempt Is
made to reorganize the road, the fig
ures allowed will have to be approved
by the new owners.
Judge Freeman, N. M. Leach, gen
eral freight agent, and W. 1.. Maury
were here and went over the figures
in the report recently made by Engi
neer Parker of the commission on tlie
Fort Wqrth division, which apparently
proved satisfactory. A majority of
the commission is out of the city, con
sequently nothing official could be
done.
N. M. Loach, who has been appoint
ed traffic manager of the International
and Texas & Pacific, said that he and
Judge Freeman, who is the new gen
era! manager of the Texas & Pacific,
would remove soon to their new head
quarters at New Orleans. As to the

Leach said he thought possibly the
headquarters would remain at Pales
