ALASKA BOUNDARY LINE.
A TROUBLESOME QUESTION TO
SETTLE.
It May be Referred to an Outside
Commission if Quebec Confer
ence Fails to Agree.

QUEBEC, Sept. 29.-The members of
the International Joint High Commits
sion have withdrawn themselves more
completely from public scrutiny than
at any previous time, and are evidently
working with a determination to reach
an agreement on all questions if pos
sible before the early part Of next
month.
During the past two days information
has come from reliable sources to the
effect that the question of settling the
boundary line of Alaska is making no
end of trouble for the Commissioners.
The contention of the American Com
missioners is that the treaty of 1925 be-
tween Russia and Great Britain deter
mined the south boundary, and that
the eastern line is established through
the surveys of 1892 The American
Commissioners hold that under the
treaty Of 1925 the south line starts at
the southern point of Prince of Wales
Island, thence to the mouth of the Port
land channel or canal, and then north
up the channel and along the mainland
to the 5Sth degree Of latitude and east
erly on the mainland, following the
crest OF the mountains and never more
than ten marine leagues from the coast,
until it reaches the 141st degree of lon
gitude in the vicinity of Mount ST.
Elias.
1t is known that the Canadian Com
missioners do not hold the same views
as to the boundaries. The whole subject
may be referred to an outside commits
sion.
The Atlantic fisheries question has
been under discussion by the Commits
sion again during the past two days,
and it is said that no effort will be
made to change the present laws relat-
ing to that industry.
The Commissioners have announced
that they positively will not hear any
more delegations. They say that they
have all the information necessary
upon all the questions before them, and
will give no time to reports Of various
interests. The Canadian lumbermen
here say no settlement will be made
upon the proposition of the Americans
to admit high grade Canadian pine
free for free logs. They say Canada
will be the loser by such an arrange
ment, and they prefer the laws to re-
main as they are

THE PANA RIOT.
Intense Excitement Prevails as a
Result of Wednesdays Trouble.

PANA Qll.). Sept. 29.-Intense ex-
citement prevailed here today as a
result of last nights street riot between
the imported negro miners and the
union miners. The principal streets
were filed with miners and citizens
armed to the teeth.
The negro arrested last night who at
tempted to take Policeman Smiths life
by an attack with a knife and whose
arrest started the riot, failed to appear
in court to-day for trial Mine Oper-
ator George V. Penwell, who gave bail
for the negro, also failed to appear.
Warrants were issued to-day for all
the negroes concerned in the riot. How
many negroes were wounded and how
severely, cannot be learned No one is
permitted to enter the negro stockades
and the operators refuse TO give out
any information. II. Z. Bishop, a by
stander, is the only white person
wounded.
The negroes have not shown UP on
the streets to-day, and it is thought
the operators will keep them within
the stockades until the excitement SUBJ
sides.
TROOPS ORDERED TO PANA.
ernor Tanner was called upon by tele-
phone to-day by Sheriff CoIburn of
Pana+ The Sheriff said that he had no
further control of the striking miners;
that he feared there would be an out
break within short time, and that he
had exhausted all his resources. He
asked that State troops be sent there.
Governor Tanner Immediately ordered
Captain Craig of Battery B, Gales
burg, to go with. his men to Pana at
once, and Colonel John B. Hamilton of
Elgin was also ordered to start with
two Of the best equipped companies of
his Sons of Veterans.
Governor Tanner ordered Captain
Craig TO camp within the city limits,
and protect the life and property of the
citizens, but under no circumstances
should they aid miners or mine owners
in the operating of the mines with for
eign labor, to which the Governor is
much opposed.

these bright moonlight nights, in a

eleven miles.
When the winter rains set in the

siderable work be done on it. This

each, according to his or her means,
the path will be put in thorough winter
