that to his mind annexation was the
logical result to be looked forward
to, following recinrouttv. Mr Unn-
net declared tho reciprocity measure
passed by the house, was not cquit-
aoie, anu would not please tho
majority of tho neonle. For In
stance, he said, it placed wheat on
tno iree list, but kept a duty on
flour; it put cattle on the freo list,
but maintained a duty on meat aud
meat products. Mr. Bennet, who is
from New York city, assertod that
city people wanted benefits from
finished products. Ho insisted ho
would ask for consideration of his

bill, expressed tho opinion that tho
Bennet resolution is calculated to
prejudice the two countries against
final approval of the agreement.
