Conclusion of the Treaty With Chile IL
of Vast importance.

Conclusion of the Treaty With Chile Il
of Vast importance.
Buenos Ayres, May 10.-A dispatch
from Valparaiso today states that =
treaty of peace and friendship has been
concluded between Chile and Bolivia,
by which the former cedes to Bolivia
a small strip Of territory and portion
of the Pacific coast midway between
Iquique and Pisagua. Chile in return
receives commercial advantages.
The conclusion of the Chile-Bolivia
treaty is said to be of far-reaching i'm
portance, particularly to Bolivia. as 1t
makes the latter a Pacific coast coun-
try, after it has been shut inland for
ten years. Officials here say that when
Chile concluded her war against Peru
and Bolivia the victors took all the sea
coast territory of Bolivia, leaving her
land locked like Switzerland, without
opportunity for commerce by the Pa
cific and unable to maintain a navy.
In 1884 treaty of truce was effected
between Chile and Bolivia, but the lat
ter country did not get back her sea
coast territory After remaining hem
med In for ten years Bolivia now gains
a Pacific port and strip of territory
This will enable her to resume COM
merce by the Pacific without crossing
Chilean soil, and it will permit re-es-
tablishment of her navy. Minister
Cana of Chile has not been officially ad-
vised of the conclusion of the treaty.

CLEARWATER RAILROAD.
White Pine Region May Be Invaded by
the Iron Horse.

Moscow, May lit is stated on ex-
cellent authority that railroad Is pro-
jected into the White Pine region of the
Clearwater. Within the past year vari-
GUS parties who have had considerable
experience in the lumber business in
Michigan have visited the White Pine
country to inform themselves of Its ex-
tent and value. The opinion gained
must have been high one, for several
have already returned and located here
or in this vicinity with their families.
This white pine begins on the numer-
Gus small branches of the Clearwater,
about 40 miles north of the Spokane a.
Palouse terminus at Juliaetta. Two
townships have already been surveyed
and located. chiefly by the state for the
benefit Of the two normal schools at
Lewiston and Albion. The lumber con-
tinues for n hundred miles along the
Clearwater to the Bitter Root foothills.
One estimate furnished your corre-
spondent is that there is enough white
pine in sight of merchantable value to
keep three mills employing 1000 men
each busy for 25 years. The proposition
is. II is understood, to put two mills in
the heart of this timber belt and third
at the end of the railroad, where con-
nection is made with the outside. 1t is
thought that Moscow would be the best
point for the location of this third mill

THE FROST OF A KILLING NATURE
Fifteen States Suffered from Sudden
Change of Temperature.

Change of Temperature.
Chicago, May 12.-The weather bu-
reau in a report of the frost last night
says:
1.-THE frost area reported this morning
is unusually extensive and severe for
this time of year, frost having occur
red pretty much in all of the Is states
for Which it was forecasted Saturday.
In the peach belt of Michigan and the
cranberry marshes of Wisconsin tenn
peratures below freezing occurred and
the freeze was of killing nature. Frost

DELAWARE AND THE sENATORSHIP
If the Governor Appoints the Senate WIN
Have Another Squabblc,

Washington, May 12.-The probability
that Governor Watson will appoint a
senator from Delaware to succeed SEN
ator Higgins is considered sufficiently
strong in political circles here to cause
a general speculation as to what would
be the chances of his being seated. The
history of the senate does not furnish a
parallel case to that which would be
presented in case of such action by the
Delaware governor, but it is more like
ly those of two years ago, presented
from the states of Washington, Mon
tana and Wyoming, than any other.
1t would be similar to those in so far
as it would involve the governors right
to appoint when the legislature has
failed to elect, but it would develop
other questions, important among
which would be the right of the COVER
nor to act in the capacity of a state
senator while filling the executive Of
flee. The cases of the northwestern
states also differs from that which
would be presented from Delaware in
that there was no counter claimant in
any of them.
