The general effect Is that all prices nave

they were June 1. But in 1898 there had peeh

the heavy loss sustained during the panic Inc
fact that at no time during the panic, nor ul'il
after the beginning of the following year, had
prices ever fallen as low as they are now' not

months in important classes deserves more at
tention than financial prophets and disputants
are giving II. Prices OF commodities III thiS
country had never been as low In all preceding
wears as they were from early in lS9Z 10 July
of that year. and the passage OF the Mckinney
bill caused only a slight and temporary ad-
vance. When It was stated in comments on
June clearing house returns that the range OF
nrices In 1892 was considerably higher than 1t
has been this year, many supposed the state
ment an error But prices Of all commodities
June were almost 6 per cent lower than July
I. 1892. and May they were 3S per cent
lower than In May 1892. and April they were
6.6 per cent lower than In April, 1892, ana
January they were 1872 per cent lower than In
January, 1892 However important the advances
have been this year, and however unwise or
unwarranted in some lines, It is but right to re-
member that the general range of prices has

TIE ALASKA ARRANGEMENT

The modus vivendi on the Alaska boundary
will serve three good purposes. 1t will put an
end 10 present friction. 1t will remove the
boundary question from the consideration Of the
Joint High Commission aud leave that body no
excuse for not reassembling and negotiating a
treaty covering most Of the other points In dis
pute. Finally it will give time for and facili-
tate the permanent demarcation of the boun-
dary in just and satisfactory manner To do
these things will be a worthy work Of diplo-
macy. Beyond them II may do little good.
There is. indeed, little If any more to be done.
1T does not appear that there is any danger Of
its doing harm to either party The concessions
made by this Government are, II is understood
of a temporary nature. They do not In any
wise commit the United States 10 the policy Of
making them permanently In the final settle
ment. Certainly the Dominion can have no
ground for complaint. The modus vivendi gives
1t more than II has ever had before.
Reference TO the map which we print else
where in this mornings Tribune will reveal the
precise nature Of the arrangement. 1t applies
not TO the whole Alaska boundary, nor even to
all the disputed part Of It, but merely TO that
portion Of it lying about Lynn Canal. That s
the region through which the Klondike traffic
comes and goes and II Is consequently the re-
gion of greatest present interest. Lynn Canal
is a great arm of the sea, most Of II from eight
10 twelve miles wide. penetrating the continent
nearly hundred miles. juneau and Douglass
Island are near its southern end Dyea, Skag-
way Chilkat, Chilkoot, Pyramid Harbor and
Klukwan are on the arms into which its north
ern end is divided. 1t is the great highway to
the Dalton Trail, the White Pass and other
roads to the Klondike. The Canadians claim
that IL 10 an inland water aud that 1t and all Its
shores including Juneau and Douglass Island
belong TO them. The United States insists that
II is an arm Of the sea, and that Its shores are
part of the winding OF the coast" from which,
under the Anglo-Russian treaty of 1925, the
boundary Is to be measured; and that all land
lying within ten marine leagues OF it's shores
consequently belongs under the Stars and
Stripes. 1t may be added that as a matter OF
fact all such land was from 1925 to 1857 undis-
putedly Russian, and from 1867 10 1884 or later
undisputedly the property Of the United States.
The modus vivendi fixes the tentative boun-
dary as follows: Above the eastern arm Of Lynn
Canal it will pass through the Canadian custom
houses already established respectively In White
Pass and In Chikoot Pass. That is less than
ten marine leagues from the coast, or from tide
water II Is, indeed, only some ten miles there
from. But the Canadians contend, and not, we
must confess, without some show of reason. that
the Kotusk Mountain range. across which these
passes lead, is range of mountain SUBMITS
parallel with the coast such as the treaty pre-.
scribes ss the boundary line wherever such
range exists not more than ten marine leagues
Srom the coast. 1t Is not impossible that Judi.
eious surveys will FIX that range as the boun-
