lightful neighborhood, and the house is in
keeping with it.
The house, Of brick construction, with

REMOVES DANGER
OF A COLLISION
Alaskan Agreement Puts
an End to Strife.
Special Dispatch to The Call,

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, Oct. 21.-United
States Senator Fairbanks was much in
terested this morning in statement
from Washington that a temporary Alas
kan boundary line had been agreed upon,
thus for the time dispOsing of a posi-
bIlity of serious trouble over the dispute.
Asked what effect the temporary boun-
dairy line would have, the Senator said:
The temporary boundary line agreed
upon is important, as il defines for the
time being the rights Of the United States
and Great Britain in the portion Of ter
ritory where there has been for some
time serious danger of collisions between
citizens of the United States and the sub
5ects of Grea- Britain. The discovery Of
gold in the P0rcupine district within the
last year within the disputed zone has
caused considerable apprehension, 1t be-
ing feared that a collision might occur
between the citizens and subjects Of the
respective countries. Under the modus
vivendi Just adopted the line between the
countries is defined so that all possibility
of any serious friction will be removed
pending the final settlement Of the per-
manent boundary. The present line is
subject Of course to the ultimate deter
nina ton of the boundary

Contention Made That Stockton Laws

Cannot Be Enforced
STOCKTON, Oct. 21.-The slot machine
test case was argued before Judge Jones
this morning on Labeas corpus proceed
ings. The validity of the ordinance was
attacked upon the rather sensational
grounds that the charter of the city of!
Stockton does not provide that the city
may fix the penalty Of Imprisonment for
the violation of any of the city ordin-
ances. 1t is the only city charter in the
State that does not contain a clause to
that effect
This contention came in the nature or
a surprise to both the court and the at
torneys for the city and Judge Jones i'm
timated that while the contention might
be we'll founded public policy would be
better subserved should he decide the
point not well taken.
decision on this point favorable to
the contestant would mean that the city
is without power to fix any penalties
other than a fine or forfeiture for the
violation of any of her laws The con
tention of defendants counsel was that
the Legislature has no power by joint
resolution to create a penal offense; that
the city of Stockton has not been given
power through its charter to create a
penal offense, and that If 1t has the
power it has not taken advantage Of it
