SEATTLE, Oct. 22.-The citizens of
Alaska are greatly exercised over the
boundary line question, and propose to
take steps in the matter without delay.
They do not want to see what they term

annexed to British Columbia, and they
will fight before they see it taken pos.

The paramount reason Of renewed ac-
tivity in the boundary line question is
the brilliant outlook of the mining prop.
critics along the Yukon and in the vicin.
ity Of Juneau. ProspectorS are arriving
in Juneau almost hourly with news of
rich finds, and good feeling runs riot.
Everyone is happy, and unite in saying
that Alaska is the richest place on the
face of the globe, and for this reason
they desire to arouse sentiment on the
boundary line question.

representing Fitzsimmons.
The ruling Of Chancellor LeathUman
has been taken before the supreme court

Of last appeal may consume several days
in handing down a final hearing. In
view Of this fact, and anticipating
favorable decision, Dan Stuart called
the parties in interest together and
stated the conditions. Stuart wanted
postponement until Nov. 10. He argued
that even if the court of final resort
sustained the decision Of the chancellor,
it would take that long to restore con-
fidence and get the crowd to Hot
Springs. Brady, for Corbett, was will

that COrbett went into training a week

DR.. Graham Tells of Sensational Inter
view With the Prisoner.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23.-At the open
ing Of court Tuesday morning the de-
tense in the trial of Theodore DuTTant
announced that it had finished its case
and the taking of testimony in rebuttal
was at once begun by the prosecution.
The testimony was the most important
given during the tlial. as it confictpd
with several vital statements made bv
Durrant while he was on the stand
The testimony Of DR.. Gilbert +. Graham
for instance, is considered by many to
sweep away DuTant's entire defense.
Graham, who is a medical student and
an intimate friend Of Durrant, told Of
sensational interview that took place be-
tween himself and the prisoner at the
county Jail on April 20. Dr. Graham
was accompanied to the prison by J. &.
Dunningan, a newspaper man, who was
asked by DuITant to retire after he had
bee there a few minutes.
Graham said that after Dunnigan
stepped aside DuEant asked him if he
would let him see his notes of DR..
Cheney's lecture in order that he might
compare them with his own. Graham
demurred at first, after which he said
DuIrant stated frankly to him that he
had no notes of the lecture. He said
Du1Tant told him if he had the notes Of
the lectures he could easily establish
strong alibi for himself and urged him
| to leave the notes with Mrs. Durrant, in
order that she might bring them to him
at the prison. Dr.. Graham said he re-
fused the request and never afterward
visited Durrant at the prison.
Episcopaiians Conclude Their Session.
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 23.-The two
houses Of the Episcopalian convention
met in Joint session this afternoon as
the final act Of very busy three weeks
session. The pastoral letter prepaid by
the bishops was read by Bishop Little
john Of Long Island. The document is
addressed to the clergy and laity Of the
/ church, and contains some 1000 words
The bishops refer to the successful de-
alterations of the convention, to the
progress in the work of revising the
constitution and canons, and to the
need Of more general contributions for
| the work of the church. A paragraph
| is devoted to the heroic self-sacrifce Of
the missionaries IN China and to q justi-
fication Of the church's policy in keep
ing them there and sending more to join
them III the work. The fact that four
new dioceses and two new missionary
! Jurisdictions have been createdis pointed
to as an evidence of the healthy growth
of the church at home.
