The President, theictfore, expects to be back in Washington sometime before thi* date, se as to get everything in readiness for the assembling of Congress. Representative Camion, of Illinois, who is to be the next Speaker of the House, has been in Washington for the last week and has had frequent consultations with the President on the assembling of Congress one month before the date fixed by law. Mr. Cannon, who is assured of election as Speaker, favors the early calling of Congress, and having been acquainted with the President's desires as to what the extra session should do, he will be readv to announce enough committees of the House to enable that body to transact business. Mr. Cannon docs not intend to announce all of his committees until the regular session is called in December, but as the extea session will be called chiefly to consider the legislation necessary to make operative the Cuban Reciprocity Treaty, he will be ready to announce the Ways and Means Committee, as well as Rules, Mileage and Accounts, and perhaps one or two others that may be
