The Coming Conference With British
md Canadian Representatives.

The Coming Conference With British
md Canadian Representatives.
Ex-Secretary Foster and Sir Julian
Pauncefote. the British ambassador, con-
ferred today as to the arrangements for the
coming meeting Of British, Canadian and
American representatives relative to Bering
sea. general understanding was reached
that the arrival today OF Sir 'Wflfred Lau-
rier, the Canadian premier, and party would
permit the meeting to open Thursday. To-
morrow is likely to be used in an exchange
of views between the Canadians and Brit
ish. The British ambassador will accom-
pany the premier to the White House to-
morrow morning and introduce him to the
President. This will be merely a call of
courtesy, however, and It is not expected
that any of the pending questions will be
referred to. The British ambassador ex-
tended an invitation to Sir sWilfred to be
his guest during his stay there, but he has
determined to remain with the other Cam
adian representatives at the Shoreham
where quarters have been engaged.
1t Is now definitely settled that the COM
Ing meeting will take-a much broader
scope than was at first anticipated. AT the
outset there will be an exchange OF views
and comparison of notes between the
seal experts, Mr.. Hamlin for the United
States, Prof Thompson for Great Britain
and Prof. Macoun for Canada, At this
meeting. however, the Canadian premier
and Sir Louis Davies, Sir Julian Paunce-
fote and ex-Secretary Foster will be pres
ent tn-an unofficial capacity, ready to take
up tho larger phases of the question when
the seal experts have concluded their ex-
change of technical Information. 1t is said
that the relations existing between Great
Britain and Canada make 1t essential that
all questions of an imperial character
should be concluded by the direct represen-
tatives of the imperial government. At the
same time the presence of the Canadian
premier is expected to assist in reaching
speedy conclusions without the usual de-
lays of acting through the British foreign
office. The formal execution Of these con-
clusions would devolve entirely on the i'm
perial authorities in London and their rep
resentative here. the British ambassador.
1t was said at the State. Department to-
day that the first object would be TO reach
a settlement on the BeTing sea question.
and with that out of the way there would
be every disposition to favorable confer
ence on border immigration, Canadian
American interests in the Klondike, reci-
procity and the other questions which Sir
Wilfred and his associates regard as even
paramount to the Bering sea issue.

1t is generally believed that the speaker
ship will have an important effect in de-
Gliding the fight for the senatorship. and
the candidates for the higher honor are ac-
cordingly interested in the bestowal of the
lower.
Among the senatorial -aspfrants. Gov.
Lowndes. State Treasurer Shryock, Post-
master General Gary and Maj. Shaw are
looked on as leaders. Congressman Mudd

Secretary Gage entertained at dinner last
night the n embers of the monetary COM
mission, now in session here. There Is no
significance to be attached to the affair,

men engaged In line Of work with which
the Secretary himself is in hearty SYM
pathy. There vas, as might be expected,
more or less discussion of the necessity
for a change in the currency laws, but the

CHICAGO, November 9.-Clarence New
corporal of G company, 4th Infantry. US.
A. stationed at Fort Sheridan has been re-
oucea to the ranks. No reason nor explana-
uCa was given for the order placing New
pacR IN the ranks and no charges were
preferred against him. He had no hearing
before summary court court-martial;
he was simply informed that he was "un-
satisfactory"
The private soldiers charge that New is
the first victim araong the witnesses who
dared to tell what they saw and heard on
the day that Captain Lowering had Private
Hammond dragged by his feet while he
kicked and stabbed the man, who was un-
able to defend himself.

lntlmated that it was Lobodys business:
that 1t was an ''impossibility" for civilians

especially wheii ii came to a matter of dis
Uipline.
Ex-Corporal New is the soldier who was
ordered by Captain Lowering to take charge
OF the prisoner from the guard house to the
court room. In testifying before the court
oi inquiry he said that he had seen the
captain kick and prod Hammond Continu-

mond had been prodded was at least a
quarter of an inch deep.
His Testimony Before the Court.
Here is where New is said to have earned
the enmity of the officers who uphold the
conduct of Lowering. These questions were
put by members of the court:
Col Snyder-Do you think such force was
necessary?
New-Well. 1 could not say as to that.
1t was necessary to get him into court.
Col. Carroil-If you lad an order to get
MIN into court, and he had lain down, wha,
means would you have adopted to get him
into court?
New-Well, 1 would have got a cart or
litter 1 would by no means have dragged

Month of October.

Month of October.
According to Capt. Gailla.-d, Corps of En-
grneers, in charge of the Washington aque-
duct, the height of water on the gauge at
the mouth of the conduit remained sta
tionary at 151.O0 above the datum plane
during the entire month of October, and
the water was perfectly clear at all points
of the system during the same period. On
the 18th ultimo. when the Potomac was at
an unusually low stage, the amount of
Water flowing over the United States dam
was about 1850 cubic feet per second. This
did not include the water flowing into the
conduit at the time.
Capt Gaillard reports the completion of
the construction Of the telephone line be-
tween the office of the Washington aque-
duct and Great Falls. and the line Is now in
operation. 1t was completed at about
three-fifths of the original estimate and
there will remain surplus of about 50 900
when all outstanding liabilities have been
settled.
A bridge designer of established reputa-
ton has been engaged to assist Capt. Gail
lard in preparing plans for steel bridge
with stone foundations over Rock creek on
the line of Massachusetts, avenue extended.
From a number of preliminary drawings
prepared by him one has been selected and
is now being developed. The plans for
