BOUNDARY QUESTION.
Why State Department Gave Per-
mission to Publish Protocols.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-While the
Department of State has acceded to the
request of the British Government for
permission to publish in Canada and
England that part of the protocols OF
the Joint High Commission which re-
lated to the proposed arbitratio of the
Canadian boundary question, it has
done SO, it is stated, not because the
particular protocols are believed to con-
vey and accurate understanding of the
present state of the negotiations. but
as matter of diplomatic courtesy
These protocols are of no contempora-
neous interest, it is said. relating as
they do to phase that has been so
modified by subsequent negotiations as
to be now of no Importance The only
matter, however, in which this fact
could be made to appear officially, and
the State Departments contention es-
tablished as to the responsibility of
Canada for the failure of the arbitra-
ton proposition, would be by the publ
cation of the correspondence and the
verbal exchanges that have occurred
since the commission adjourned But
this the department is unlikely to at
tempt owing to sincere purpose to
find solution of the present difficulty
and belief that this would not now be
facilitated by publicity.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
Both Have Finished Their Hard
Practice Work.

NEW YORK, June 5.-Fitzsimmons
and Jeffries have finished all hard work
in preparation for their big fight at
the Coney Island Sporting Club Friday
night. Their work from now to Wednes-
day will be of the lightest kind.
Although little attention has been
paid to the training of the pugilists
compared with that showered on the
work of contestants in previous cham
pionship battles, both have put in weeks
of hard, conscientious training, and are
in good shape.
Fitzsimmons claims to be as fit to
fight championship battle now as he
was ever in his life. Jim Jeffries, paced
by Ross O'Neil on bicycle, walked ten
miles on the stone road at Asbury Park
bright and early to-day. Returning,
he went to work in the gymnasium, and
it was II o'clock before he finished. He
used the punching bag and wrist ma
chine, jumped the rope, spared a few
rounds, played handball and was
rubbed down The boilermaker re-
marked to-day that when the gong
sounded Friday night at Coney Island
there was going to be trouble He is
of the opinion that one of his famous
left hooks will settle the champion.

FILIPINO ACTORS.
Instructions Issued Allowing Them
to Land.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-Mr Pow
derby, Commissioner of immigration,
with the approval of the Secretary of
the Treasury, has issued instructions
to the officials of his service at San
Francisco to land the company of
Filipino actors, who have been detained
there some weeks pending final de-
termination Of the case
In the course of his letter Mr.. Pow
derby says that the persons who have
a contract with the Filipinos, and who
were instrumental in brining them to
this country, assert that 1t was their
intention Ito procure the services of
natives of the Philippine Islands who
would be fair types of the people Of
that race; that, in addition, they
should be competent to illustrate the
domestic life habits and customs of
their countrymen, and they should be
actors of such recognized ability as to
enable them to faithfully portray, as
actors, the scenes and incidents Of life
in the Philippines, to sing the native
songs and dance the native dances of
the F1lipinos, and further, to illustrate
the games and festivals which form a
part OF their domestic life. and that
under no circumstances would they be
allowed to perform any service in COM
petition with American labor"
Continuing. Mr.. Powderly says: THE
testimony in this case goes to show
that the appellants are actors, and that
their performance was witnessed by
one who testified to that fact. II is
true that they followed other occupa-
lions, but that is also, true of many
Well-knoWn actors in the United States
The point raised as to their compensa-
ton is not material, since there is no
recognized rule or standard by when
managers of theaters are governed in
paying the salaries of actors"
Mr.. Powderly has secured a pledge
from the persons bringing the company
over that they will execute a new con-
tract with the F'ilipinos which will pro-
vide that their services shall be now
only for the purpose of exhibiting the
songs, dances, games and plays of the
said islands; that they will cause them
to be supported, maintained, clothed,
fed, lodged and supplied with medical
attention when required so long as
they remain in the United States. and
they shall not require them to do any
other labor or service than above
specified, and that they will be returned
to their native country at the cost
and expense of the contractors at the
time specified in the original contract"

ADMIRAL DEWEY.
Will Sail From Hongkong To-Day
on His Voyage Home.

HONGKONG, June 5. Admiral
Dewey left the Peak, Hotel and returned
to the Olympia yesterday This morn
ling he paid farewell callssto the Gov
ernor, General Gasoigne and the COM
manders of the warships In the harbor.
Admiral Dewey's healthihas been con-
siderably benefited by his residence at
the Peak. He has refused all social in
vitations, and has taken a perfect rest.
He appears somewhat haggard from
the effects of the continual strain he
has been under of the climate
The Olympia will sail at 4 o'clock to-
morrow afternoon, but Admiral Dewey
will not give a farewell dinner, nor will
he accept one. 1t is hoped that the
quiet change and the voyage will quite
restore him. to health by the time he
reaches New York. The details of the
ports at which he will call are still I'M
decided, but. it is probable that stops
will be made at Singapore, and Colombo.
The Admiral seems anxious to avoid all
display, and merely to seek rest. His
officers and crew are elated at the pros
peet of a return home

DISEASED COWS.
Some Slaughtered Which Were Az
fected With Cousumntion.

CHICAGO, June Ex-Governor Tanner
at the stock yards to-day witnessed
the slaughtering of twenty-seven cows
in test conducted by the State Board
of Health and the State Board of Live
stock Commissioners. Twenty-Five were
found to be in an advanced stage of
consumption, and the other two had
we'll developed cases This herd came
from dairy farm in Sangamon County
that supplies the Governors household
with milk, and he expresses himself
very forcibly on the subject
That test demonstrates said ne,
1.-The danger that constantly confronts
the public. and proves that the Live
stock Commissioners should be invested
with power to examine every herd IN
the State, whether private or not. DR..
Lovejoy tells me that this herd is the
worst that has been met yet. Why,
they We're simply rotten with disease,
which must surely spread the germs
of tuberculosis -

General Come discussiHgsthe plan to be
followed in order to scHfeh Ezterhazy.
The Mathis correspondent at Brus-
sells confirms the statement that Du
Patty de Clam left documents in the
possession of the D'Ursel family. Du
Patty de CLAIMS wife is daughter of
the Duchesse D'UrSe1, grandmistress of
the Queens household and Queens god
daughter.
The Minister of War, M. Krantz, has
ordered proceedings to be taken against
Esterhazy for obtaining and using doc
uments connected with the so-called
secret dossier,'' and the Minister has
also issued instructions that proceed
ings be taken against General Pellieux
for the manner in which he conducted
the Esterhazy case.
The Minister of Justice, M. Lebret,
has written to the President of the
Chamber of Deputies, M. Deschanel,
calling his attention to the reference in
the decision of the Court of Cessation
to General Mercier's showing doc
uments connected with the Dreyfus
court martial, in order that the Cham
Der may decide whether MERCER is to be
proceeded against for an unlawful act
committed while he was Minister of
War.
