Hope For Reconvening the Amer

mission ~
In August Has Been Practically
Abandoned %. Boundaries

Have Proved Unexpected and Ap-
parently Unsurmountable
Obstacles.
Temper of Neither Side Has Yield
ed Sufficiently For Hope Of
Progress.

WASHINGTON, May 10.--All hope of
reconvening the joint American-Can-
adian commission in August has been
abandoned. The conference adjourned
after having made good headway, as it
was thought at the time, towards the
draughting of an agreement. Owing to
an unexpected and insurmountable OBJ
stacle in the shape of the lumber and
boundary questions the joint commission
adjourned to meet in August with the
understanding that in the meantime the
members of the two commissions would
test public sentiment. It was also
hoped that some difficulties which had
presented themselves in the settlement
of the work of the commission might in
the interim be removed by diplomatic
negotiations. It has now been demon
strated, however, that the temper of
neither side has yielded sufficiently to
warrant the expectation of any success
full result attending the reconvening of
the commission. It is said that our Of
ficials are thoroughly discouraged at
the time-consuming manner in which
the various propositions which have
been put forward are banded back and
forth between London and Ottawa.
