One of the ancient mounds near st. Louis

of three races discovered, those Of whites in a
burying-ground on its summit, those OF
Indians deeper down, and those Of the
'smound builders" in two vaults at its base.

crease the stringency of the existing practice
of dispensing with the warning hitherto give'
and seixing at once any vessel detected in vio-
lating the law. In view of this the vice. admi-
raj is reminded Of the extreme importance OF
the commanding officers of ships selected to
protect the fisheries exercising the utmost
discretion in carrying out their instructions.
paving special attention to Lord Granville's
observation that no vessel should be seized
unless it is evident and can be clearly proved
that the offence of fishing has been committed
and that the vessel is captured within three
miles of the land.
On MAY 81, Mr.. Fish wrote long letter to
Mr.. Thornton, giving his views OF the limit
of the waters in Canada. in which he said -
s.If am correct in this respect, and If that
part of the coast of what in 1918 was known a.
Labrador, included between Mount Jolly and
the bay or harbor of Ance Sablen or the Mag
dalen islands, be in the waters of Canada.
do not doubt but that the authorities OF the
Dominion will recognize the necessity offs
notifications of orders in council OF the etl'
of January, or of such additional instructions
to be given as will secure the fishermen OF the
United States from interference while in the
exercise of liberty guaranteed to them by the
treaty of 1873"
Mr. Thorntons reply says he thinks Mr.
Fish's exposition OF the limits OF Cahauian
waters is right. but he has forwarded copy
of the note of the Governor General.
Mr.. Fish's next letter exposes the discrep-
ancy between the official instructions OF the
home government, one letter claiming that
the United States had renowned the right OF
fishing within three miles of a line drawn
across the mouths of rivers or baysy another
ordering seizures only when fishermen are
within three miles of land. The latter instruc-
tons were the ones finally accepted as guild
ing ones.
The remainder of the correspondence, from
August 25 to November 3, is between the de-
partment of State and consuls in the British
domnions, by which it appears that, contrary
to former precedents, American fishermen
had been forbidden to buy supplies on the
island, and that commanders of British mem
of-war were exceedingly arbitrary, and would
give no satisfactory explanation of their pur-
poses or the grounds on which their actions
were based. The correspondence fills nearly
thirty closely printed pages. but the above
are the chief points discussed. The informa-
ton furnished by consuls is interesting but
cannot we'll be summarized in the limits OF .

The majority of the people fail to under

been raised in the Senate over the resolu-
sion Of Senator Morton in relation to San
Domingo. 1t is simply resolve to pro-
vide information concerning San Domingo,

full in the case, without which all opinions
as to annexation are useless. The resolve
is as follows

States be authorized to appoint three commits
sioners, and also secretary, the latter to be
versed in English and Spanish languages, to
proceed to the island Of San Domingo and 10

ers may deem necessary, and then to inquire
into and ascertain and report the political

les thereof, and such other Information IN
respect to said government and its territories
Is to the said commissioners shall seem deslr-
,ble or important with reference to the future
INCORPORATION of said Dominican Republic in
10 the United States as one of its Territories.
The compensation of the Commissioners
Is to be nothing but their expenses, and
hey are to report as soon as convenient
through the President. What better course
han this could be adopted in the midst OF
he difference of opinion and ignorance
which seem to prevail about the matter,
t is difficult to see. 1t may be said that
The President will not appoint impartial
commissioners, but if he acts with his ac-
;ustomed fairness and honesty, and due
regard to his reputation, the commission
will be one in which the nation will place
confidence The character of the men
composing it will be known, and the Pres
dent is well aware that the credence
which the report will have in the public
mind, will depend mainly upon their repu-
cation for candor and ability. a report
coming from known partizans ofthe acqui-
siton of San Domingo, might be truthful
in its statements, and yet fail to receive the
popular endorsement because of prejudice
against its authors. his the President
understands, and is therefore impelled by
the interest he may feel for the adoption OF
MS views to appoint suitable commission,
even though his sense of justice and right
were not sufficient to lead him to do SO.
He must see that it is all important that he
should appoint as fair commission as can
DE selected.
The opposition made in the Senate to
the passage of this resolution was not well
founded, and the character of the opposi-
ton, so virulently attacking the President
with little or no provoeation, is generally
condemned. 1t is true that the President
is not above criticism, neither is he below
the respect which his position entities him
to from the people, especially by members
of his own party. He may be wrong, but
HS 10 SutiIiSu " ~ iC'pCNtiu ~
long as he preserves his own dignity and
self-respect That he is fully satisfied in
his own mind of the Importance to the
United States of the acquisition of San Do
mingo is too apparent to be disputed.
Now let the commissioners investigate the
subject thoroughly, give us all the light to
had upon it, and then the Senate and the
country will be better qualified to judge
whether the President is right or wrong in
his conclusions. Very little is known
among the people Of the actual condition
of the island except what has come from
interested partizans, either for or against
annexation, and what appears in the Presi-
dents Message and the discussions in the
Senate, SO that it is not only hazardous,
but unwise to take sides upon the question
at present, whenmore complete knowledge
is about to be had which may lead to
sonuder and better established conclusions.

active but a very dscreditsble part in behalf Of

The WORKING PEoPLE.-The Commissioners
OF Public Parks in New York city have adopted
resolutions in reference to the recent act of the
New York Legislature, which establishes eight
hours as DAYS work for all mechanics, work
ing men and laborers, employed ON the public
works of the State and of municipal corpora
tons. The resolutions declare that it was the
intention of the Legislature that such mechanics
should receive for such number of hours thus
constituting ga days work" substantially the
same compensation as that heretofore paid for
the day work of longer duration. Under this
construction of the law, it is provided, that all
mechanics, workingmen and laborers. in the
employ of the Department of Parks shall be
employed and paid by the days work of eight
hours duration, and that the compensation
shall be at the current rates paid for similar
work, and that the extra compensation shall be
paid for overwork. At a recent meeting of the
German Cigar Makers Union, No. 90, of New
York, now on protracted strike, il was voted
TO modify the resolution not to accept any re-
duetion OF wages, so as to establish a minimum
price, to serve as a basis for negotiation with
the employers. The matter was referred to the
executive committee, to arrange the list
rates. 4

An incidental question of considerable lite
rsry interest will arise In the minds of most of
the reading public in connection with the death
OF Mr.. Dickens That is, whether his last work.
q" The Mystery of Edwin brood, !" was fully com
pie'ed at the time Of his death. That its frame
work was all laid out, If not actually joined to-
gesher, we do not doubt; but whether he had
put the final and finishing touches, in his own
way and with his own hand, to the perfected
structure, or not, win probably never be known.
For IL he had not, that fact will most likely be
kept from the public, and the services OF some
other writer secured to finish II according to his
original plan. The difficulty Of this undertake
ing Is not so great as would at first appear when
IL Is remembered that the contributions of one
or two writer's for his serial publications were
for long time and by shrewd judges accepted
as Mr.. Dickens own. Let us hope however,
that the work upon which he was engaged when
the dread message came may reach the world
not only AZ conceived by his wonderful brain,
but finished to the mirutest detail by his master
hand.

"IHE RoUMASIA MAssAoRE-"- The New

banded around among them quite literally.
That the " news was big sell seems to be now
tolerably well established, though the real facts
OF the case appear TO be very hard to get ct. Ii
Is pretty clear, however, that IL the foreign
