CANADIANS INCLINE TO KICK
Over Important Concessions Made to the
United States
Mount st. Elias Is q Good Landmark, but u
Ought to Remain In Canadian
Territory
Associated Press Special Wire

Associated Press Special Wire
OTTAWA, Ont, March 1.-The text
of the Alaskan boundary treaty has
been known only 4S hours, and already
there are rumblings of discomfort. The
treaty, as explained by officers of the
dominion land survey, makes an i'm
portant concession of territory to the
United States. The 141st meridian OF
west longitude is by the treaty the line
of demarkation between British and
Alaska territory in the far northwest
of this continent. According to the sur
veys made Jointly by the United States
and Canadina survesors. under the
charge of Gen. Duffield, chief of the
geological survey of the United States.
and w. F. King, dominion's astronomer,
the summit of Mount st. Elias Is AL
miles east of the 141st meridian in Cana
dian territory. In place of defining the
boundary along the 141st meridian, the
treaty provides that the line shall be run
due north from the summit of Mount
st. Elias for twenty miles, until it there
strikes the 141st meridian. 1t Is con-
tended here that in this territory there
may be untold wealth. In the past when
boundary questions have arisen between
the United States and Canada, the DO
minion has generally come out second
best, as, for instance, in regard to the
boundary In Maine and in the north
west angle" of the Lake of the Woods.
The only reason put forward for con-
ceding this strip of territory is that the
summit of Mount St. Elias, as an initial
point from which to run the boundary
would be more readily recognizable than
row of mounds, pillars or monuments.
Parliament meets in three weeks and
the grievance will be fully ventilated.

tie Takes Decision Jack Ward Of
Newark
NEW YORK, March Jimmy Barry,
the worlds champion bantam boxer, to-
night met Jack Ward of Newark, N. j..
at the American Sporting club in 20
round boxing bout at 110 pounds. Barry
was looked after by "Parson" Davies,
Tom O'Rourke. Joe Choynski, Bill Arm
strong and Jack Cassidy. In Ward S
corner were Jack Dougherty Joe
Fletcher and Denny Ward.
In the first five rounds Barry forced
the fighting and got in many blows, but
Ward took punishment well, and in the
sixth round succeeded in landing sew
eral knocks on the Chicago boys head.
Neither could claim the superiority.
Barry had the best of the ninth, landing
terrific blows on Wards head.
Honors were even up to the twelfth
round, but after the opening of the thir-
teenth it became evident that Ward
wRs tired.
From the fourteenth to the eighteenth
round inclusive, Wards work was very
clever, but he was forced to assume the
defensive very often by the aggressive
ness of the champion.
In the nineteenth round Barry rushed
into action, but Ward saved himself by
lodging and clinching.
In the twentieth round Barry tried
to induce Ward to mix up. but Ward
was too careful They spared until the
bell ended the fight.
There were cries of Ward" and
draw" but the referee awarded his
verdict In favor of Barry.

California Growers Organize to Control the
Selling Price
SAN FRANCISCO, March Lima
bean growers of California controlling
over 80 per cent of the bean output of
the state, have formed an organization
to control the market known as the
Lima Bean association.
With the cooperation Of the Southern
Pac'ac Milling company they have en-
tered into an agreement with HI. Du-
tard, 'orter Brothers & Co., Wolf &
Lehmal of California; j. K. Armsby *
Co. of Chicago and Delafield, McGovern
& Co. OF New York. This agreement in
sures a steady market. protects eastern
buyers a. d precludes the possibility of
a successful attempt to break the mar
ket by competitive growers. The SELL
ing price for the past season has ranged
from $135 to 81. 40 per hundred pounds,
figure almost below the cost of produc-
ton. BY the terms of the agreement the
selling price is fixed at $3.50 per hum
dred pounds, with guarantee against
decline for thirty days after each change
IN price.
Financial arrangements have been
made which will enable the Lima Bean
association to carry any surplus there
may be and an agreement has been en-
tered into whereby a large reduction in
the acreage of the coming crop will be
brought about and buyers will be as
sured of steady and advancing markets.
The Lima bean district of this coun-
try Is confined largely to Ventura and
Santa Barbara counties. The output
each year amounts to about 1000 acres
and the value to $2.000,000.

for three rounds. The representative
of the Associated Press held the watch
and called time at the end of each three
minute round. For thirty-three minutes
Corbett kept at 1t, changing men at the
end of each round 1t was noticed that
each man used different style of fight
ing the champion. Jeffries, who is the
strongest man on the force, does rush
ing work. Much has been sent out from
Carson about Corbett's sparring with
Jeffries, some claiming that Jeffries
gave the champion all he could do, to
avoid his rushes AS a matter of fact,
Jeffries' instructions are to rush and
corner Jim If possible, giving the cham
pion practice at extricating himself
from tight places He allows the big
fellow to corner him but usually gets
away without having the glove put on
him. He reaches Jeffries when and
where he pleases. In his bout this
morning with the new aspirant for
championship honors, Corbett landed
particularly vicious uppercut which
caused Jeffries' jaw to come together
with a snap. Unfortunately his tongue
was caught between them, and for sew
eral seconds the big fellow held his
jaws with both hands and howled with
pain. Joe Corbett is the quickest with
the gloves of all of the trainers, and to
him falls the duty of trying to reach his
big brothers jaw with right-hand
swings, la Fitzsimmons. So far how
ever he has failed to connect with the
desired spot Jim does not counter on
Joe when the latter misses, but con-
tents himself with a few left jabs on his
brothers face, by way of variety. The
hard punches are usually reserved for
Billy Woods Even with the protection
of his armor, Woods lot is not happy
one.

sum Mrs. Stanford paid under protest
The personal property in question con-

Stanford in San Francisco. while some
