SOME STYLE IS NECESSARY
AMERICAN OFFICIALS IN CUBA
DEFEND THEMSELVES.
Charges Made That They Are In Lux
ury at the Expense of the Gov
eminent.
Aug. 4.-Conslderable COM

Havana Aug. 4.-Considerable COM
ment was caused here this afternoon
by the publication of a dispatch from
the United States. embodying the
charge, made by a leading New York
newspaper, that Governor General
Brooke. Brigadier General Ludlow,
military governor of Havana; Collector
Tasker Bliss and Major Davis, SAM
tary officer at Havana, have been re-
ceiving extra allowances out Of the
Cuban revenues to maintain themselves
in luxury.
The feeling among Americans in Ha-
vana is that this charge is based upon
a serious misrepresentation of the case
The suggestion of luxurious living per-
plexes the Cubans, who are in a posi-
ton to contrast the democratic way In
which the men holding the high ranks
of Generals Brooke and Ludlow con-
duct their establishments with the
prodigal habits of the old Spanish re-
gime.
AS to the charge that General Brooke
has expended money in repairing the
palace, the Americans reply that this
old and historic structure had either
to be repaired and remodeled, or to be
pulled down. and, consequently, about
500. 900 has been expended on it. But,

that the necessary expenditure in this
direction does not come out of the in
sular funds, but is given by the United
States. General Brooke's coachman is
paid in the same way. AS TO the men,

PHoENIX-LIKE IT RISES.
The Bunker Hill and Sullivan Mill
Again In Operation.

Victor N. Clement, who is one of the
owners of the Bunker Hill & Sullivan
property at Custer Ida, the hosting
works and mill of which were wrecked
by dynamiters last spring, stated yes
terday that the new mill was so far
completed that one-half of it had been
started up. and advices just received
by him were to the effect that the other
half would soon be ready. The mine
he said, would not be fully re-equipped
for two or three months Yet. as some
Of the heavier machinery was hard to
obtain, owing to supply houses and
works being so far behind with their
orders.
NJ. Clement says the company's con-
centrating mill is one Of the largest in
the country, having daily capacity of
500 tons of crude ore. Its product goes
to Tacoma for reduction. where the
company. in conjunction with the Lon
don Exploration company, owns a
smelter.
The ores of the Bunker Hill contain
about half an ounce of silver TO the
unit OF lead. and are entirely free from
arsenic and other refractory ingredi-
ents, making it a very desirable smelt-
ing ore. As the Exploration company
is able to supply the dry ores needed
10 work with the Bunker Hill product,
the company is not in any way at the
mercy of the big smelter trust, and
hir. Clement believes that as soon as
that concern demonstrates the earning
capacity of the smelling business il
will have all kinds of competition
throughout the west.

said. are very delicate, and must be
handled carefully to avoid collisions.
He said there should be a warning
to people intending to go to Cape

and utterly destitute of timber. de-

ASSERTION IS DISCREDITED.
Zackert's Claim AS to Movements
Along Alaska Boundary.

ZdckerC'S OidlIn AS 10 IGOVeIuenlS
Along Alaska Boundary.
New York, Aug. A special to the
Herald from Washington says: All the
evidence obtainable here discredits the
assertion of John Zachert, mining ex-
pert, that monuments were erected
along the Alaskan boundary line in 1898
and that charts showing the localities
of the mountains are in existence.
The library of congress, the coast and
geodetic survey and the photographic
office have large collections of maps
of the disputed region, including some
Russian maps, but there is none such
as is referred to by Mr.. Zackert, and
none was found by the diplomatic rep
reSentativeS to Russia, who searched
for boundary line evidence in ST. Pc
tersburg. If the boundary had been
marked by monuments prior to the ces-
sion of Alaska to the United States,
some reference would naturally have
been made to them in the treaty, but
there is none. 1t is believed here that
if such monuments existed they would
have been discovered recently by the
miners.
The government map collections
bring out one important fact; that is,
that all the old maps, American and
British. locate the boundary just as is
claimed by the United States official
admiralty charts, bearing date from
1902 to the time of the cession of
Alaska, differ somewhat as to the con-
figuration of the coast and the islands
that lie along it, but all show the
bounary line parallel to the windings
of the coast, ten marine leagues from
the shore, just as it is asserted by the
United States today it should run.
Evidently the Russian government
never had any doubt as to the location
of the boundary. But the British gov
eminent also held the same views.
British admiralty charts, from the ear
liest to the latest accessible, that of
1887, mark the boundary the same as
on the American maps.
1t was not until 1895 that Canada
raised the question whether the bound-
airy line ran where the United States,
Great Britain, Russia and all the map
makers of the world had uniformly
placed it. Gold was discovered on the
upper Yukon. The Lynn canal and
Portland channel became important
highways to the interior and the Brit
ish Columbia chief commissioner of
lands and works got out a map on
which he ran line which he called the
Undetermined boundary"
This was drawn so as to give Canada
both Portland channel and Lynn canal.
Sne set up lnlS contention tnat the map
makers had located Portland channel
wrong and that the real Portland chan
mel was what is known as Benin canal.
Interesting light is thrown on this
claim to Portland channel by a Brit
ish admiralty chart of 1868, the year
after the cessfon of Alaska to the
United States. Commander Pender of
the royal navy. made an elaborate sur
vey of Portland channel. He not only
