ANNEX
The Association ReOrqdniZed
 Yesterday.
A New impetus Given by inc Favor able Resolutions Adopted by inc Trans-riisSisSippi Congress "A Closing Address on Expansion.

Wichita, Kan, June 3.-The Ma tional Irrigation association held a meeting last night and reorganized with Joseph H. Carey of Wyoming, author of the Carey act, as president George H. Maxwell os California, chairman of the executive committee, and Henry Michaelson of Colorado, secretary The association was reor- ganized to secure increased member ship and funds with which to push claims. The resolutions passed by the trans-M ississipi congress on the subject of irrigation are satisfactory to the irrig3t;onists, and It is this that inspired them to renewed exertions in behalf of the peopling of the arid re- gi0ns. Most of the delegates have gone home and the Mississippi congress was thinly attended today, the resolutions having been passed. Houston won the fight for the next meeting
 T. c. Henry of Denver created q sen sation in his speech on the "Condi- tons of the iater-mountGin states" He claimed these states and territor- ies are actually retarded and losing population because of excessive and unjust freight rates, causing deprec- iation of mining properties and pro- duets generally through monetary conditions. Prof. W. H. Isely of Fair mount college concluded the meeting with an address on expansion and our commercial interests n the far east.

A VOLUNTEER
Holds Views Contrary 10 Those of
 General CiiS.

San Francisco, June 3.-The officer of one of the volunteer regiments, writing from Manila under date of May II, says: Much of the news sent home by correspondents is shamefuliy false and does our cause great injury among foreign intersts here.
 General Otis keeps sending reports that the insurrection will soon be suppressed. Nobody in the field be- Hevos such stuff. The insurgents can fight 9 guerrilla warfare with 10000 men, such as will keep 100000 Amer ican troops busy for five years. In the rainy season all the campaigning On a large scale must stop. In the mean time the insurgents can reeuperate, replenish their supplies of ammuni- ton, go on cultivating their fields in the interior and suffer comparatively little hardship"

The child started to cross the track from west to east. A bicycle rider was coming along beside the car, and the child in some way got between the wheelman and the car She became frightened and toppled over against the car and under it, one of the rear wheels of the car passing over her head and crushing it.
 Many hundreds of people were on the streets in the immediate vicinity when the child was killed, and scores of them were eye-witnesses of the accident. A crowd made for the front platform Of the car, upon which the driver stood, crying Lynch him!" The police prevented the mob from doing violence to him.

ROBBERY AT SEA
The Strong Box of inc Alameda
 Touched for S25-OOO.

San Francisco June 3-Nothing new developed in the mysterious rob- bery of S25,O0O from the strong box of the steamer Alameda, which arrived from Australia last night. Detectives are unable to unearth anything tangi- ble. Officers of the steamship com pany are al Q loss to account for the theft and seem inclined to believe that the money was stolen after the steam CT left Sydney, ard sent ashore at Auckland, though they have no par tcuIar reason for that belief.
 The robbery is the most inexp'icab,e the local police ever encountered, but they have not given up hope Of event ually landing the guilty persons, or ar least of giving the Australian authori- tics such aid thac they can apprehend the thieves, If they are on Australian soil

THE ALASKAN BOUNDARY
Probability That inc Canadian DiS-
 pufe Nay Be SsffIed.

London, June 3.-The representative here of the Associated Press has been informed that United States Ambassa- dor Choate at a conference which he had with the Marquis of Salisbury yesterday, submitted dispatches from officials at Washington. who have con- s:dered the points raised by the Can adians in the boundary dispute. These are treated generally, but two points were specially treated: the first, de- fining the line of arbitration, to which 1t is proposed to submit the Alaskan question; and the second, the Ameri- can view of the Lynn canal strip claim.
 Prominent foreign officials said Cam ada's proposition on the first point may be accepted by both parties and that fifty years valid title clause will be made the base of negotiations, in which case they will practically proceed on the Venezuela lines.

H HENDERSON BOOM
Effect of inc Capture of inc Wis
 Consin and Illinois Delegations.

i Washington, June 3.-The success Of
 General Henderson in capturing the
 Wisconsin and Illinois delegations has
 given boom to his stock in the
 speakership contest. For some time
 the impression has been growing that General Henderson might take the
 lead in the contest, drawing votes i from both east and west His personal popularity is conceded by everybody, his rivals included, and it has de- veloped that he is very well thought Of as a candidate by some who are counted to be for Sherman as first choice, and that he will have the sup port from the start of some who have been counted as probable Sherman
 mn. He has very decided strength in
 the Pennsylvania allegation It Is
 said that even if a majority of that
 delegation is controlled for B;ngham's
 nominal candidacy. it will probably
 be with the understanding that they
 are to go to Henderson when the
 proper time comes, and that on the
 other hand, II it appears that DalzelI
 has greater strength n the delegation
 than has been counted on by the Quay
 people. it may be decided to throw the
 delegation to Henderson at once The friendliness for the Iowa candidate
 among the Pennsylvania members of the house is regarded 3s significant of great strength on his part, since the Pennsylvania delegation is known no. to be controlled by sentiment, but makes it point to pick a winner, if possible.
 It is said by some of the Indiana members that there is a strong sentI- | ment in that state, too, in favor of Henderson. and that it is likely that 1 the delegation will decide at their con- ference to vote for him. It is already | determined that the Indiana delega- | ton will act as a unit It is said also | that the Ohio delegation, or majority i Of it, is likely to go to Henderson. Should both these claims prove true IL i would give Henderson such 2 boom as practically tc insure his success.

period is to be one Of assimilation, is
 nearer the truth than those who talk
 about another period of reckless com tination forming.
 It is suspected, too, that there will be period of fresh legislation in re- gard to corporations in possession of public franchises. The new law for
 which Governor Roosevelt is respon- sible, means a readjustment of ac- counts with all of them If it proves to be an oppressive law, there will be several years of fighting to have if repealed. If it works well, there will nevertheless be much discussion be- fore the new tax IS satisfactorily en- tered upon the books. If lawyers sue ceed in bowling over the law in the courts there will be another contest in the new legislature of next Japu- ary. Looked at in any way there is work ahead for the franchise holders. and it must be some time before the whole matter IS on anything like permanent basis. The majority of franchise holders believe they can evade the tax and but small minority think it ought on moral grounds to be paid if the assessment is a just one. Everything will depend on how the law is enforced. There is also a pos sibility of more legislation to follow, for some of the corporation men think sa:ll that the governor is more of politician than anything else. They say they expect him to keep nagging away at them, but do not say in what manner he will attack them. Another set of men here believe there has been ! long period of imitation of the value of franchise holding properties, and that the new tax IS merely one incl dent of their drop to their rue level as with other securities.

After the allotment has been arranged, the persons selected for examination will be summoned to the point most convenient to their homes and examined. Persons living in states east of Ohio will be examined at Washington, and during the fall examinations will be held in various parts of the country, probably at Chi cage, St. Paul, Omaha, St. Louis and Cincinnati. It is quite likely some arrangement will be made for the cx- animation of applicants living on the Pacific coast. In this manner an el- igible list will be made up of persons who have passed the examination from which the clerical fierce will be selected as the needs of the bureau may require.

Hillsboro, N M. June 3.-The state n the Fountain murder trial bolstered up the corpus deIicti, which was crip- pied by the failure to establish the fact that it was human blood found near Colonel Fountains blackboard. through Prof. Crossen yesterday, by the evidence of Captain Thomas Bran nigan, an old scout ttis morning, who said there were evidences of a party having carried heavy object on a horse and deposited it on blanket at night.

sLUR ON AMERICAN COLLEGES
Remarks By the London Globe on tn,
 Methods of Student Athletes.

London, June 3.-The Globe says that considering the status of the transatlantic universities it is re- gTettable, but not surprising, that col leges should pay the training ex- pepses of their student athletes. but a worse practice is the institution of athletic scholarships
 "Such a scholarship" the paper says. could be bestowed upon pro- fessional acrobat for his prowess in high jumping
 It Is gratifying, the Globe adds, 10 learn of the acceptance of the British universities challenge, and to know that the American representatives will be genuine students If the Americans do not prove as successful as hitherto their reputation as sports men will be materially raised
