COLLECTOR IVEY
ON ALASKA BOUNDARY
He Who Closed Port of Unalaska to the
Canadians Insists that the British
Ere 0verle. .ehinT Us in That r sg;:n.

Washington, May III. W. 1vey. the
collector OF customs fer the district of
Alaska, who caused a sensa ton by or
dering the pert of Unalaska closed to
Canadian sealing schooners, is in
Washington. The treasury department
rcprdiated Mr.. Iveys order and hurried
d new collector to Alaska to take his
place. The new collector, Lieutenant
u. II. Jarvis, vas 4 personal appointee
OF President Roosevelt.
The treasury department has not yet
hcaru from Sitka whether Mr. Jarvis
has qualified as collector and so far as
they know Mr.. Ivey is still a govern
mcrt officer. Ivcy left his post about
six weeks ago without leave of absence,
and has since denounced the state de-
paI tment and the treasury department
several times for their attitude on the
Alaska boundary question. No action
against Ivey will be taken, as the treas
cry officers believe he is mentally un-
balanced, but there are many who be
lieVe he makes Il pretty straight argu-
ment on the boundary question.
Mr.. Ivey said today he came here in
the interest of legislation for Alaska.
That very rich region. he says. is
shamefuily neglected by the govern
mcnt. Mir. Ivey defended vigorously
his order closing Unalaska to Canadian
sealing schooners. In regard to the
boundary question he said:
The United States made a NEST stu
pendous blunder when it submitted the
boundary question to arbitration. The
treaty of 1873 between England and
Russia so clearly defines the line that
it is not Gebatable. The Canadians
are today occupying millions cf acres
Cf American territory at Forty Mile, the
Porcupine and other stations in that
vicinity. Their surveyors and engin-
GERS have been actively at work for
years, and | am satisfied that it will
| be soon proved to the satisfaction of
cur people that their zeal for their gov
ernment has led them 10 destroy bound
airy monuments erected by the Russian
government more than half Il century
/ ago.
The United States should withdraw
/ this question from arbitration, after
which it should make the survey of the
/ lines defined by treaty, erect its boun-
dairy monuments. and il that does not
settle it let it be settled the way George
! Washington settled with them"

Washington. May 11.-Senator Raw
lins, the senior democratic member of
the senate committee on the Philippines
today expressed an opinion that q vote
could be reached on the Philippines
government bill toward the end of the
present week. Other democratic mem
bers of the committee think the date
of the vote may be postponed until
some time reXt week, but none place
the vote later than the oath inst. two
weeks hence. They say that whenever
the debate is exhausted they will agree
to a vote, but they object to naming a
day to vote until they are quite certain
that there is nothing more to say per-
tinent to the subject.
The consideration of the bill this
week will be interspersed with the con
sideration of appropriation bills, Mon
day being set apart for the fortifca-
tions bill and Tuesday for the agricul-
tural bill. Neither of these measures
Will consume a great deal of time and

A RATIFICATION
Of Last Tuesdays Proceedings in the
Fourth Ward.

The election last Tuesday WAS rali-
fled by the Spanish American Demo-
cratic society at the park yesterday AZ
ternoon. 1t was hardly necessary that
this branch OF the democratic party
should go to the trouble to announce
that the result of the election was
highly satisfao tory to it, Tor it was the
chief contributor. Without the Span
sh-American vote there would have
been no such result.
After all, yesterdays proceedings were
not so much a ratification as a jollili-
cation, in which the ladies took part.
Pedlo de la Lama enlivened the thu onG
with his presence. and let it be kno-"n
that he had not been asleep on cleo
ton day.
There is an unVerilied runlor that tie
end has not yet been reached, but that
a contest OF the eleo ton in the Fourth
ward will be Instituted in due time.
Nobody with authority TO speak has
said that any such thing is in conten-
plation, but the rUmor has given rise
to some speculation as to the outcome
Of a second election. There is Il con-
census of opinion that it would end
differently. 1t is not believed that all
the MEXICAN voters who participated in
the struggle in that ward could be got
together again in time to perform the
same effectual service they did before
The members of the street improve
ment corps have been scattered to the
four winds of heaven, and nobody
knows where half of them can be
found.

This crowd is being recruited daily in
