INVITATION FROM SkAGWAY
JOINT HIGH COMMISSION ASKED
TO VISIT ALASKA.
Purpose to Observe Conditions as to
the Boundary Line Probability
of Agreement.

Washington, May leach of the
members of the American branch of
the joint high commission has received
a handsomely-prep invitation from
the chamber of commerce of Skagway,
through its president, to visit that port
and see for themselves the conditions.
The invitation recites in strong Ian
guage the desire of the people of Skag-
way to have the commission MAINTAIN
10 the utmost the claims of the United
States to every foot of territory within
the three-mile limit lying between the
sea and the boundary line, as it has
heretofore been recognized.
The invitation has made an impress
sion upon some members of the COM
mission because of the earnest express
sion of the determination TO MAINTAIN
American rights to the utmost. For
one thing it is taken as completely neg
ativing the statement published some
time ago TO the effect that the majority
of the people of SkagWay are deSirous
of annexation to Canada.
There is every indication of the alb
solute and final determination of the
American commissioners to uphold tins
View Of the proper boundary line set by
tSe people of Skagway, if the bound
ary question is 10 be retained as one
of the subjects for the action of the
joint commission.
1t mas come TO pass in the negotia
tions now going on in London between
Lord Salisbury and Sir Julian Paunce-
fote on the cSe side and Ambassador
Choate on the other. that the resum-
iss of the joint commission depends en-
tirely upon the disposition made of the
Alaskan boundary question
Wien The commission adjourned last
yrinter it was because the two branches
were unable to agree upon it. The
Americans finally proposed to drop the
boundary question entirely as a sub
ject for consideration by the commits
sion. leaving it TO be adjusted by or
d:na.y diplomatic methods or by arbi-
tration. The Canadians refused to
consent to the separation of this dues'-
tion from the others.
Therefore. the adjournment followed
and it is necessary for the United
States and Great Britain to agree upon
one of two courses before the COM
mission should meet again. Either by
mutual agreement the boundary ques--
ton must be Withdrawn as a subject
for consideration or the two nations
must settle it outright themselves be-
fore the commission meets. The nego-
tiations now in progress are directed 10
securing one of these results.

Queenan of Chicago tonight before the
Colorado Athletic Association, getting
the decision at the end OF the twentieth
round. Queenan was completely out
classed His defense was good, out
only by repeated clinches and running
away did he manage to last the limit.
Parker did nearly all the leading
from start to finish, and after the
tenth round, the only time when Quee-
nan attempted to mix matters, had
things his own way. Queenan took
punishment gamely. Parker knocked
him down repeatedly and made des-
perate attempts to finish him. but
Queenan's ducking and footwork
saved him from a knockout. Several
times he fell from weakness.
Considerable money changed hands
on the proposition that Queenan
would not last six rounds. At the end
of the fight the crowd cheered Queenan
