the location of the capital of the pro posed
new Territory at Weare, a station of the
company located about half way between
Dawson City and st. Michael on the Y u
kon River.
The opinion has been volunteered that
the bill creating the new Territory will
have as its soutnernmost boundary Mount
St. Elias. From that point the eastern
boundary will run directly north to the
Arctic, which ocean will form the north
ern boundary. The western boundary
will likely run down the coast line beyond
ST. Michael to the top of the divide be-
tween the Yukon and KusKokwim rivers.
The boundary on the south will follow the
sixty-second parallel east to the Copper
River where il will cut down to Mount
ST. Elias.
Should the division occur and the
boundary lines mentioned prevail Alaska
proper would then include the Aleutian
Islands, the coaling stations OF Dutch
Harbor and Unalaska and the balance of
the Alaska peninsula, the island of Unga
and its quartz mnes, Kodiak Island
KanaI Peninsula and the placer mines of
Cooks Inlet. Prince William Sound and
the placer mines along Copper River, the
towns of Wrangel, Sitka, Juneau, Dyea,
Skaguay and the passes on the overland
route to the Yukon.
Within the new Territory would be the
rich placers OF the Yukon as far east as
the international boundary line. 1t would
also include the numerous settlements
and trading posts from St. Michael TO

For obvious reasons the Attorneys en-
eral to-day naturally declined to discuss
mis- probable appointment to the Supreme
Court bench. The President has not
talked to any one about whom he will ap-
point to succeed Justice Field, but the
unanimous opinion is that Attorney. Gen.
eral Mckenna will be the man. This is
the opinion of Cabinet memb bers who are
supposed to be acquainted with the facts.
Beyond this it is purely speculative as to
who will succeed Mr.. McKenna. In Cab

ion as to the successor of Mr. McKenna

If Judge Golf of West Virginia can be

stated positively, however, that the Presi-

anything with respect 10 the reconstruc-

Petitions urging such action have

NO RECIPROCITY IN BICYCLES.
Treasury Officials Say They Have No Authority

Washington, Dec. 12.-The secretary
of the treasury has sent to the state
department decision on the question
of a reciprocal tariff arrangement, by
which it was desired to admit free OF
duty. bicycles accompanied by their
riders.
Some time ago the League of Ameri-
can Wheelmen called the attention OF
the state department to the fact that
in several countries of Europe touring
bicyclists were allowed to carry their
wheels from one country to another.
but this concession was confined to
countries which had made a specific
agreement to that effect.
The United States is not a party 20
this agreement, and the League of
American Wheelmen ascertained that
a similar concession might be obtained
for them in case the United States
should extend reciprocal privilege to
Europeans. The treasury officials
have decided that they have no author
ity to take such action.

Hon. Geo. E. Minot the news of whose
death SO shocked the community, Sat

was a complicated case of strangulated
hernia and his illness was of only four
days duration. The physicians were
puzzled by the case and as a last hope,
an operation was performed, late Fri
day night, by Drs. Thayer. Hill and
Besse of Waterville, assisted by the
local physician, DR.. L. E. Reynolds.
