LAURIER'S QUEER POSITION.
SAYS CRITICISM PREVENTS FROM
VISITING CHICAGO.

Will Not Advise Governor General
of Cnnada 10 Be Present at the
Corner Laying CeremOny-Fears
some Indignity on Account of Pub
lie Feeling and the Attitude of the
Press on the Alaskan boundary
question.
Washington, Aug. AIR F. w. Fitz-
natrick of the treasury department has
lust returned to Washington from Ottawa,
where he went, at the instance OF the com
rttee of citizens of Chicago in charge Of
the ceremonies of the laying of the corner
stone of that city's great postoffice build
ing next October by President Mckinley,
to arrange for the formal invitation and
expected acceptance of an invitation from
Choago's citizens to the governor general
and the cabinet Of Canada to participate in
the festivities.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick is the assistant United
States architect under Architect Henry
Ives Cobb for the Chicago building.
To The Associated Press representative
he admitted that his official reception was
sHghuy chilly, Sir Wilfrid Laurier very
candidly telling him that under the pres
ent conditions it would be impossible for
him TO accept or even consider any social
invitations to this side of the border.
Declined with Thanks.
Nj Fitzpatrick says that in substance
sir Wtfrids voluntary statements and
answers 10 queries We're as follows:
AS friend in whom l am deeply inter
ested, 1 am very glad to see you, but
frankly, as a representative of the federal
Or any local government in the United
States your visit could not have been
more unumely. When I received your first
letter ] took up the matter with his excel
lency, the Governor General, and he ex-
pressed a sincere desire to visit Chicago
and seemed as anxious TO accept the in
vtaton as I was He would have been de
lighted to so and was looking forward to
the day with much anticipation. But since
then the tone of your press has become so
harsh in dealing with the Alaskan bound
airy question, such Misrepresentation
have been made about our government and
particularly about me that it would be
undignifed for US to visit you and can
not advise his excellency TO go"
Thought 1t Would BE Unsafe.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick said that Sir Wilfrid in
tmated that in the present state of public
feeling in the United States as indicated
in the press it would not be entirely safe
for the governor general and himself to
visit Chicago, as he feared that they
might, in a great gathering of such a char
acter as the Chicago ceremony, be sub
lected TO some unpleasantness or 4ndig>
nty by thoughtess persons.
SIR Wlllrid expressed himself as strong
" IN favor of arbitrating the Alaskan
boundary dispute, and concluded the in
teIview as follows:
50 much as 1 regret il, I could not go
10 Chicago under present conditions, and
must however painful a duty i. may be-
a'Else his excellency to decline the invi-
lauon that l know and feel has so kindly
oeeh extended to us by the city of chi
AIR. Fitzpatrick secured Sir Wilfrid's
promise, however, to reconsider the mat
