One of the Murderers of Walter Koel-
Ter Sentenced for HIS Crime.
Chicago, Oct. 25.-Herman Humid
hansen, of Herman, Mo-, who has been
on trial for completely in the murder of
Walter F. Koeller. on Sept. 2, was yes
terday sentenced to twenty years in the
|penitentiary. Hundhausen and Richard
Honeck, his partner in the crime, went
to Koeller's room, where the latter was
sick in bed, and stabbed him to death.
During the trial Hundhausen declared
he did not know Honeck intended to
kill Koeller. After the crime had been
committed, however. he determined to
stand by Honeck and take half of the
blame. In his cell yesterday Honeck
asserted that Hundhausen's story was
true, and that he was innocent as far
as previous knowledge Of the crime
was concerned.
After the Hundhausen case had been
disposed of, Richard Honeck, who ac-
tually killed Koeller, was brought into
court. He admitted that he had killed
Koeller, and declared that he did IT be-
cause of the father of the boy he had
murdered had, long ago, in Herman
Mo-, been instrumental In causing the
death of Honeck's brother. His attor-
ney announced that he would make the
defense on the ground of insanity, not
withstanding the admission of the prls-
oner that he had committed the crime
deliberately. During the afternoon
number of witnesses who had known
| Honeck while he lived in the city were
placed on the stand. Most of them tes-
Titled that they believed Honeck to be
insane. The trial will probably be con-

THE ALASKA BOUNDARY.
Last Proposition Not Likely TO Il


Last Proposition Not Likely TO Be
satisfactory to Uncle sam.
WASHINGTON. Oct 25-It is said at the
state department that the proposition
as 10 d permanent Alaskan boundary
laid DOWN by Sir Louis Davies is moth
ing more or less than a summary of
claims heretofore preferred. When the
commission was in session last spring
and The Canadian proposition was
made 10 settle the boundary question
by arbitration, the American commits
sioners replied with an offer to accept
arbitration with the proviso that no
point occupied by Americans for a
specific term of years should be sub
mitted to arbitration. In other words,
the term was so fixed that by no pos
sibiiity could the title of Skaguay
Dyae or any other place that the
Americans had occupied for a period
represented by the discovery Of the
Klondike fields be called into question
by the arbitration. This was one of
the final propositions rejected by the
canadian commissioners which caused
the failure of the joint conference.
Since that time there have been sew
eral suggestions in the nature of conn
promises, and included among them
was one like this embodied in Sir
Louis Davies proposition, namely:
That the United States should confirm
the Canadian title TO Pyramid Harbor
lan return for Canadian confirmation Of
the American title to Skaguay and
iDyea 1t Is not possible to accurately
| forecast the view that the state de-
lpartment will take TO this last propo-
lsition, but it may be proper to recall
the fact that in the opinion of the de-
| partment Canada has no more claim
Ito Pyramid Harbor than it has to
| Skaguay and Dyea, and the British
government has already been Informed
Eof that belief. Therefore it seems
probable that Sir Louis Davies propo-
sition viii not materially advance {
permanent settlement of the boundary

10 ARB|1RA|E CLAIMS
Washington Diplomats Are Much
Pleased at the Recent Action
OF Russia.
The Long Pending Boring Sea Claims
To Be Settled by Arbi-
tration.
Celebrated Dutch Jurist to Be the
Arbitrator History Of the
Dispute

Washington, Oct. 25.-Russia's agree
ment to arbitrate the Boring sea claim
is source of great satisfaction to the
United States ambassador to Russia,
Charlemagne Tower, who is stopping in
London on his way to st. Petersburg.
He said to the Associated Press: The
relations between Russia and the
United States We're never more close or
friendly than today. The only differ
ence existing between them is HOW sure
of settlement on lines similar to the
Venezuelan arbitration. l will return
to st. Petersburg Saturday, and the
finishing touches will be put upon the
agreement
Another American diplomat said to
the Associated Press: This practical
evidence of the friendliness of Russia
and the United States completely re-
flutes the claims of those who have
maintained that we have engendered
Europe's hatred by our close relations
with England"
These claims originated in the seizure
by the Russian authorities % the coast
Iof Siberia of three American sailing
vessels, and the damages claimed ag
gregate about Sl5o,010. The vessels
We're the James Hamilton Lewis, Cape
Horn Pigeon and c. III. White In each
case the largest item of claim is on ac-
lcount of the sufferings of the Ameri-
can officers and crews while under ar
rest. The cases differ from the claims
presented by the British sealers, which
We're settled by the Bering sea arbitra-
ton, in the fact that, While the British
vessels We're seized by American reve
nue. cutters on what the arbitration de-
lclared to be high seas. the Russian
lmen-of war seized these American
sealers Within seven miles of the Ash

that for the first time the Russian
government contends that the marine
