eaid:
1.-The Democrats say am fraud to
talk about trusts. am not going to
talk about them. This combination OF
capital for one purpose or another Is
not political question at all. 1t Is
business question and ought not to have
been brought into politics. When our
industries were in their infancy Eng
land and other countries came along
and sold goods to this country at less
than the price asked in their own.
Then followed the protective law
framed by that friend of the working
man. William Mckinley. Having Sc
cured this protection American manu-
facturers went ahead. They made
rapid strides and are successfully COM
peting with the whole world.
Beiieves They Arc Necessary.

We should own and control our own

first wear in the history Of the country
that this was true. But we must LOOK

LINE is DEFINED.
Modus Vivendi Fixing a Tempo.
rary Alaskan Boundary
Executed.
Prejudices Neither Party in the
Final Settlement of the
Question.
Temporary Boundary Thus Fixed
to Be Marked Without
Delay.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 2l.-Mr. Tower.
the British charge here, called at the
state department and handed to Secre-
tary Hay note formally accepting tor
his government the propositic1 for the
temporary adjustment of the Alaskan
boundary line. proposed by Secretary
Hay of his note of Thursday. With
that act the long-expected modus VI
vendi relative to the vexed boundary
question went into effect. This result
has been brought about through the
direct negotiations of Secretary Hay
and Mr.. Tower, after several failures in
the past through commissioners and
ambassadors. The state department IS
confident that it has conserved every
American interest in the arrangement
without unjustly treating Canada. The
division line on the west pass by which
the Dalton trail is reached is placed
22L miles above Pyramid harbor, wnich
is regarded under the treaty as tide
water mark, SO the Canadians are not
allowed to reach any point on the Lynn
canal. Moreover, there is no permls-
sion given for free port or even for the
free transfer across American territory
of Canadian goods, except OF miners De-
longings. These matters may ngure
later on when it comes to permanent
boundary line, but they are not touched
upon in this modus.
The modus vivendi follows the pre-.
cedent established by Secretary Evarts
in 1873 in agreeing upon q temporary
boundary on the Stikine river III Alaka
by an exchange of notes.
The line Oh the Chilkat river is 22>2
statute miles from the head Of naviga
ton to the Lynn canal and on the
Klenini river, l2 statute miles further
inland. and the whole valley of Porcu'
nine creek is included within the Amer
ican line. On White and Chilkoo'
masses the line is fixed at the summit OF
watershed, being observed by custom'
authorities of the two countries.
Some Of the Provisions.
The agreement provides that tn
claims of neither party in the final set
tlement are prejudiced by the tempo
rary boundary. It is also provided
that persons proceeding to or from Por
cupins creek shall be freely permitte'
TO follow the trail between the sai'
creek and the said junction Of tn
rivers, into aud across the territory o.
the Canadian side of the temporar
line wherever the trail crosses to sue
aide. and subject to such reasonabl
regulations for the protection OF tn
revenue as the Canadian governmen
may prescribe to carry with them owe
the said points a. may lie on the Cans
dian side Of the temporary line, sue

duties on such goods and articles; an

Denial That President Dole Will

MINISTER COPPER IS AUTHORITY
And Special Agent Sewali Denies
That He Has Been Made Pres
ident Of Hawaii.

The rumor fiend is at large in this
city again, and taking advantage OF
President Doles absence on Hawaii,
has circulated a story TO the effect that
the President of the Hawaiian Repub-
lie was to be summarily removed and
Special Agent Sewall appointed in his
place. This rumor was in circulation
yesterday afternoon, and an Advertiser
man at once started out with the pur-
pose of running il down. Several
parties were found who had heard the
story some days previously and others
only an hour or two before.
Special Agent Harold NJ. Sewall was
one of the first seen. He said:
This is the second time today that
/ have been asked about the relations
of the United States with the gentle
men at the head of the Hawaiian Gov
eminent. | had thought that we had
succeeded in killing off all these rumor
fiends when annexation was accomp-
lished. but it seems not. If you can
trace this particular rumor TO its foun-
tain head you will oblige me by letting
me know the name of the originator
You may state from me that l know
absolutely nothing about the matter
and that up to this time l have not
even heard it mentioned. / am sur
prised that such rumors should gair
credence."
Attorney General Cooper was seer
after his return from kaneohe yes
terday evening, and said:
You can say that / have neve
heard of such story and that the Ha
waiian Government knows nothing o
( it. AS far as the Government is con
cerned there is not an atom of trutl
in it. President Dole has not resigne
and we have never received the slight
est intimation that he intends to do sc
If he has been removed by Presiden
Mckinley there is no one at the Exec

Confederacy; and then, the courtly, I'M
assuming, warm-hearted and generous
Southern Gentleman of the old school.
tender and gentle to women, brave and
chivalrous to men, were parts carried
by Mr. Clement with ease OF one who
was to the manor born. There is not
the slightest silt of stiffness about
the types of the young and the old
Southern manhood, which he portray
ed, and when he appeared before the
curtain to acknowledge the hearty ap-
probation accorded him, his manner
was the same-the type was inherent
| in him. One of the chief charms of the
play is the excellent balancing of char
acters, and the foils each afford the
other The sentiment was sweet, pure
and good, and for that reason alone is
worthy the approval of the playgoing
world and the world at large. There
| is not the slightest indelicacy or any
thing savoring of it. and. the rest OF
the characters, taking their cue from
THAT of General Carroll, follow the
Ideal type and carry it through the
play. 1t is such play from which
but good results, from the seeing Of
which the heart grows tenderer ant
LESS trammeled and brings a sense o
lQuiet and peace and contentment
which is the author and actors chic
triumph, for in this play Mr.. Clement
ideals have been high and pure an,
