1~HE East is having a variety Of
trials and troubles this summer.
Besides the prevalence of the
kissing bug, an epidemic of lockjaw is
under way. In New York, Boston.
Philadelphia and other cities tetanus
is claiming victims among those who
received what appeared to be trifins
wounds on the Fourth of july. The
physicians are trying an anti-tetanus
serum, injections being made into the
sufferers brains. The remedy would
seem to be about as dangerous as the
disease itself. The serum is said to he
an absolute preventive of locktaw, but
whether it is a cure has not been de-
termined. Most of the cases of the
disease are too far advanced by the
time they come under the notice of the
physicians for the serum to be used
with effect. The doctors cannot ac-
count for the cause of the singular epi-
demic. They say the germs may be
specially prevalent at this time of year,
or they may be due to certain local or
atmospheric conditions. Lockjaw is
endemic in certain portions of New
Jersey. Why it is frequent in these To-
calities nobody has been able to dis
cover. 1t is dreadful disease and it's
prevalence is making people nervous.
That a slight cut or bruise may be
followed by the agonies of lockjaw is
a possibility that nobody likes to con-

.PUZZLING PHASES OF
BOUNDARY QUESTION
British Press Representations May
Cause Radical Action at
Onpa

NEW YORK, July ia Journal special
from Washington says: The State De-
partment will undoubtedly find it neces-
sary to publish the recent negotiations on
the Alaskan p1 1ovisional boundary line be-
tween Secretary Hay and Lord Salisbury.
Only such proceeding can fully answer
the representations from time to time
made in the British press, and which, es-
pecially Of late, have developed a tone
distinctly threatening to this country IN
case it does not adopt the Canadian view
of provisional boundary line This
statement, made by a State Department
official to-day, presents fairly the latest
phase of the boundary question. 1t is in
the air here that some action of a radical,
perhaps sensational, character, is to be
expected this week at the State Depart
ment. It would not surprise the country
10 learn thatTthe State Department had
recalled from the War Department it's re-
quest that Pyramid Harbor be not garri-
sOned. This would leave the order of the
Secretary of War instantly operative, and
the troops-a battalion Of infautry-aI-
ready designated for that post should be
hurried to the frontier
A State Department official said to-day
on this, probability: This Government in
sending troops to Pyramid Harbor, will
not contravene any Canadian rights. On
the contrary, we viii he merely sending
troops into our own territory. OF course
the State Department agreed not to send
troops to a post within our own jurisdic-
ton, by request from the British I'm
bassador, with the understanding that a
modus Vivendi should be quickly ar
ranged. This very request was a confess
sion on the part of Great Britain that she
was helpless TO prevent an outbreak if
America exercised her undoubted right to
keep her troops in sight Of the Canadian
people along the line"

ed to be gross violation of the contract

CALL HEADQUARTERS, YELLING
ING HOTEL, WASHINGTON, July Ia
The State Department has received the
text of the German-Spanish treaty un-
der which the Caroliues, PalaOs group
and the Mariannes Except Guam are
ceded to Germany on payment Of 2500O,-
600 pesetas. Since Germany grants Spain
the same commercial and agricultural
privileges as are to be enjoyed by Ger
man subjects, it is apparent that the
Berlin Governments chief object in ac-
quiring the Carolines was to make them
a military base in the event Of trouble
in the Pacific.
There is further evidence of this in re-
ports through military channels that ex-
tensive plans are being made to repair
and strengthen the obsolete Spanish de-
fenses of the Carolines. The commercial
side of the acquisition, however, is not
being neglected, as arrangements have
been completed for a line of steamers TO
connect with all of Germany's important
possessions in the East The main
clauses of the treaty read:
THE Imperial Government of Germany
and the Royal Government of Spain have
agreed on the following points:
''First-Spain will cede to Germany the
Caroline Islands, with the Palaos group
as we'll as the MarianneS, except Guam,
in return for a money indemnity OF 20
'Second-Germany will grant to Span
ish commerce and to Spanish agricultural
enterprises in the Carolines, Palaos and
Mariannes the same treatment and the
same opportunities that it will grant
there to German commerce, and Will
grant in the aforesaid islands to Spanish
religious orders the same rights and the
same liberties that it Will grant TO Ger
man religious orders.
"ThirdSSpain shall establish and main
tain, even in time Of war, a coallng sta
ton for the royal navy and merchant
navy in the archipelago of the Carolines,
another in the archipelago of Palaos and
another in the archipelago of Mariannes.
