 To the Senafe:
 I have called the Senate in extraordinary session to consider the
 treaties concerning which it proved impossible to take action during
 the session of Congress just ended. I ask your special attention to the
 treaty with the Republic of Colombia securing to the United States the
 right to build an isthmian canal, and to the treaty with the Republic
 of Cuba for securing a measure of commercial reciprocity between
 the two countries.
 The great and far-reaching importance of these two treaties to the
 welfare of the United States andthe urgent need for their adoption
 require me to impose upon you the inconvenience of meeting at this
 time.
