Change Ward Party Methods.
A meeting of the republicans of ward
was held in Father Mathew Hall last
night, and resulted in the formation of
a permanent organization. Before the
meeting was called to order, an infor-
NAL talk was held, and many of the
members present took advantage Of this
opportunity to express their views of
the manner in which politics are run in
ward 4.
Considerable excitement was caused
in the early part of the evening by the
presence of a disturbing element in the
form of a few of the mugwumps of the
ward After finding that all attempts
to create a disturbance resulted in fail
ures, they withdrew,
William E, Higgins was appointed
chairman and Isaac Aronson was APP
pointed secretary. A lookout commit
tee, consisting of Joseph Stone, John w.
Sheridan, Titus Smith, Harry e. Waite
and Charles Liend, were appointed by
the chairman to look UP republicans
in the ward and get them to Join the
club.
The club will be known as the Ward
( Republican Club. 1t is to be a club
for republicans, and is to have republic
can principles. The promoters of the
club think that with proper organiza-
ton among the republicans in the ward
a e-cornered fight can be won if a
candidate with republican principles
can be found. The next meeting will
be at the call of the chairman and will
be held before the republican eaucuses

Der of commerce this afternoon pro-
tested against any action on the part
of the United States and the British
joint-high commission that will i'm
peril the continuance of Canadian
bonding privilege. The resolution adop-

sent from eastern and western sections
of the United States through Canada
and back into the United States. as
being of great commercial advantage
to many millions of American people,
and that for obvious reasons it is OPP
posed by a number of the American
trunk line roads, and that as it is OF
immense Importance to the general
business interests to this country that
a treaty providing for reciprocal trade
with Canada, should be ratified, there
fore, it was resolved, THAT the Boston
chamber of commerce deprecates the
introduction Of such a contentious sub

high commission has been appointed to
frame believing that it is not so much
a matter of difference between Cana

various transportation interests with

BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
Hope of the Anglo-Ameriean Commission
ON the Completion of Their Work.

Washington, Nov. 1S.-Members of
the Anglo American commission of
Canadians and Americans expressed the
hope today that they would complete
their labors before the Christmas holt
days. They are not yet willing to state,
however, that treaty will be framed
covering the many subjects of differ
ence between the United States and
Canada. Greater progress has been
made than is generally understood and
the rough draft of some of the articles
Of the proposed treaty has been sub
mitted by sub committees and tenta-
lively approved. But the important sub
iects of North Atlantic fisheries, reel
procity and Boring sea remain open. 1t
lis understood by those acquainted with
the work of the commission that the
questions of border immigration, min
ing rights, lake fisheries and the Alas
kan-Canadian boundary have been
found less difficult of solution than was
expected. and that a basis Of agreement
on these subjects is in sight if not ac-
tually determined upon.
AS to Boring sea the view prevails on
both sides that q settlement win be
reached and the presence of two Off
cials-one a Cana dian and the other an
American-at Victoria. where ~ inTen-
tory is making of the Canadian seal
fleet leads to belief that the settlement
may be on the basis of wiping out the
industry by giving the Canadians some
equivalent for the capital invested. Re

tinue to be the most stubborn questions
before the commission,

A TIME LIMIT.
Our Commissioners Soon to Present It's
Final Peace Terms to Spain.


Paris, Nov. 1S.-The United States
peace commissioners are devoting to-
day to formulating their next presenta-
ton for the consideration of the Span
ish commissioners. While the Ameri-
cans are reticent as to their intentions.
it may be said without reserve that the
time is near when the exact peace
terms acceptable to the American COM
missioners win be laid before the Span
iards with time limit for their ac-
ceptance.
AS previously indicated in these dis
patches, the American commissioners
will not involve the United States in
any obligations to the creditors Of
Spain in any shape or form. The Unit
ed States may now debit to Spain the
value of the battleship Maine, the cost
of the naval and military operations,
the losses incurred by American COM
merce and the future pension roll, etc,
while on the other side of the sheet
may be placed Spain's equities and val
ues in the Philippine islands. If a
difference exists in favor of Spain, this
amount, in cash, may be offered her by
the American commissioners at the
next joint session here. This balance
may be $20e0O,OOo; possibly less. The
Americans may also. require until next
Monday or Tuesday to prepare the final
presentation of their case.

the inventor of the Kelley motor, died
today at his home here from pneumo-
MIA He was taken ill ON Saturday last.
Mr.. Kelley was 81 years Of age and
leaves a widow. He was a native of
this city. His edue2tion was meagre,
and at an early age Ne became q. car
penter, following that trade until 1872
1t was in that year that he announced
his discovery of new force by which
motive power would be revolutionized.
Following this he constructed the Kee-
ley motor On Nov. 10, 1874, he gave
it's first public exhibition before a
number of capitalists and scientists,
who advanced 100000 to enable him to
perfect his discovery. Since then large
sums of money have been expended on
experiments without any practical
public results.
Between 1874 and 1891 Kelley con
structed and discarded 1923 different
models. In his first models he en-
ployed water as d generator, but later
the experiments We're made with what
he called 'liberator," a machine
equipped with a large number of tun-
ing forks, which he claimed disin-
tegrated the air and released a power
full etheric force. In 1888 he was for
a time confined in Jail for contempt OF
court in refusing to disclose the secret
by which he produced many remark
able effects in the presence of experts
but until his death the secret was
known only to himself Among those
interested in his scientific efforts was
Mrs. Bloomfield Moore, the well known
society woman, who advanced sums of
money to Kelley for the purpose of his

bandry Advanced to Seventh Degree.

Concord, N. H, Nov. 1S.-At the bust
ness meeting Of the National Grange
here today representatives from Iowa
and South Carolina We're received. Res
buttons were introduced and referred
relative to the organization of the
grange in oklahoma and prohibiting the
utterance of political opinions by state
and national grange officers and ex-
pressing the opinion that such officers
when nominated for public offices
should resign their grange positions.
The climax of the great National
Grange meeting was reached this after
noon and evening when at crowded ses-
sions more than 1000 Patrons of Hus-
bandry were advanced to the highest
body in grangedom, the seventh degree
of Priests Of Demeter. The members of
this great class, one of the largest in
the history of the grange, came from

WHAT coRBfN SAYS.
No intention of Sending the Sixth to
Cuba for the Present.

Washington, Nov. 1S.--Adjutant Cen
eral Corbin says there is no intention
at present to send the Sixth Massachu
sets or any other regiments recently
returned from Porto Rico, to Cuba.
These men were given so days fur
Tough, but were not ordered mustered
out, BECAUSE it was thought they might
be needed later. If they are not need
ed, they will not be recalled from their
furloughs, but will be mustered out.
At the war department today there
seems to be an impression that not
nearly so many troops will be needed
in Cuba as was designated in a general
order issued some time ago. Then
three corps were named, and their sta
lions determined upon. Three regi-
ments were to be sent to the province
of Cienfuegos, but now it seems likely
that not more than one regiment will
be sent there. Other points where
large garrisons were expected win not
have the quota assigned to them. and
perhaps not more than half of the
troops first selected will have to so to-
