ALASKAN BOUNDARIES.
A Report of the Various Surveys
That Have Been Made.

n ftepOTl VI
That Have Been Made.
NEW YORK, Nov. "a special to
the World from Washington says: The
state department will today Saturday
receive from General Duffield, chief of
the coast and geodetic survey, a report
of the surveys in Alaska, which are the
basis of the boundary line claim of this
government. The report will show that
the Canadian line encroaches on Amer
lean territory 221a feet at the Forty
Mile creek and % feet at the marking
point on the Yukon river. Mr.. Ogilvie,
the Canadian engineer who made the
survey for the government, it is
claimed was too far v<ost by these
distances in his calculations of the
Hist meridian.
Mr.. Ogilvie, who is a deputy land
surveyor of Canada, made his calcula-
tons as to the points at which the 141st
meridian. which is the boundary line,
crosses the Yukon and Forty Mile
creek solely by astronomical observa-
tons. The United States surveys used
both the sextant and the theodolite.
and the result of both calculations was
the same.
The report will be used in the diplo-
matte correspondence that will prob
ably be had with view to determining
the exact boundary line.

CAN WAIT.
HARRITY on THE COMING DEMO-
CRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION.
Believes it should BE Held as Late
as is Consistent With the CAM
paign Work TO Be Done-PreIfm-
mary Work.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Before leav-
ing for his home in Philadelphia, Chair
man ". f. Harrity, of the Democratic
national committee, said: For nv part
/ think we can we'll afford to wait until
the meeting of the national Republican
committee, which will probably be held
early in January next, in order to de-
termine whether the Democratic national
committee should precede or follow the
LAS to the date of the convention" con-
tinued Mr. Harrity, Il believe it should
be held as late as is consistent with the
campaign work to be done. A conven-
ton held in the beginning of July only
would mean a nominal campaign Of four
months, and an actual campaign of less
than three months. The preliminary
work essential to the proper conduct of
the campaign need not of itself cause
unnecessary agitation or tend to unset
tie business

sATOLLI'S SUCCESSOR.
There is No Doubt But One VIII Be
Appointed.

CHICAGO, Nov. "a special to the
Times-H Herald from New York says:
Not since the arrival of Mgr Satolli
himself have high official Catholic cir
cles been so stirred as they are to-
day at the receipt of a message from
Rome initimating that not only is
Satolli to have a successor, but that
the successor has already been ap-
pointed. For some reason or another
efforts have been made to suppress the
news of the runrqred appointment,
but the fact stands that a message
has been received by a. distinguished
ecclesiastic here which says that Mgr
Laurenzelli, at present serving as inter
nuncius at The Hague, is to proceed
to the United States shortly before
Mgr. Satolli takes his leave of Wash
ington. Laurenzelli is said to have
been harmoniously associated with Sa-
TOLL in Rome for many years and be-
longs exactly to the same school of
diplomats.

The publication by the London Times
of a three and a half column extract
from the pamphlet which Lord Dun
raven is just issuing as a reply to the
report of the Americas cup committee,
a synopsis of which was cabled to the
Associated Press last night, has caused
a renewal Of the anti-American talk
in all circles, which began after the
withdrawal of Valkyrie III from the
contest for the Americas cup this year.
The pamphlet is regarded by the Brit
ish press as being a complete vindica-
ton of Lord Dunraven and as an I'M
answerable indictment of the Ameri-
CdIiS Lie serious part OIL the puD-
LEGATION is that Lord Dunraven, after
months consideration records his de-
liberate opinion that he was the vic
tim of foul play, for this is the es-
sence of his statement regarding the
measurements. Naturally, therefore,
the press comments this afternoon are
very unpleasant reading to Americans.

The Pail Mall Gazette says:
If there is ever to be any more in
transitional yacht racing, the New
York Yacht club must convince the
world, beyond suspicion of careless
ness or partiality, that Lord Dunra-
ven's accusations of foul play are not
founded on fact"

third. Time: 43 2-5.. Wells and Muir
ply collided and each got a terrible
fall just after passing the tape at the
finish.
SAN JOSE, Gala, Nov give
thousand people attended today's Ma
tional circuit races. The season has
closed at the point where it begun, but
not as auspiciously as it opened for the
seasons champion, Bald. The day
was perfect and the reason there were
no new records made is due entirely
to the fact that there were no pace
makers fast enough.
The pacemaking was done by tan
dems. Great interest centered in the
class 3 races.
The one-third mile class B race re-
suited in one of the most exciting fin
ishes ever seen on any track. The
starters were Bald, Cooper, Keiser,
Murphy, Wells and Randall. Bald got
under way first and led half way round
the track where Wells worked his ia
NOUS long sprint and led into the
stretch by half al dozen lengths, with
the others punched. Ten yards from
the tape the men were all punched to-
gether, finishing within the length of
a wheel. The men were so closely
punched that Wells and Murphy
could not separate their wheels and
both came down with awful force,
rolling over and over. Both were bad
~ bruised
Altogether it was terrific finish
and there was much complaint at the
decision of the judges, placing Wells
first Bald second and Murphy third.
The five mile national championship
race, open to both classes A and B,
had eight starters. as follows: Bald,
Cooper, Murphy, Wells, Staver, Camp
bell, Ives and Nissen. The riders were
paced by three tandems. Bald got off
first as usual, and caught the tandem
which position he held for four miles
The pace was hard and Ives dropped
out at the end of the second mile
Staver soon followed suit and the re-
mainder of the field We're placed as fol-
lows: Bald, Murphy, Cooper, Camp
bell, Wells and Nissen. Nissen dropped
out and was followed by Wells who
was in distress presumably from his
fall in the previous race.
Campbell could not hold the pace
and at the end of the fourth mile the
field was narrowed to- Bald, Murphy
and Cooper. Then followed the pretti-
est bit of bicycle jockying ever wit
messed here. At the pickup by the
last tandem, Murphy hacked in and
crowded Bald out. Cooper pinned his
wheel to Murphy's and would not al
low Bald to drop in behind the latter.
Bald, however, would not accept third
position and rode one lap at the side
of the others.
Following are the results:
One-third mile scratch, class B, final

third. Time: 43 2-5.
