MAY AGREE THIS TIME
Joint High Commission Will
Shortly Hold Another
Meeting.

Washington, Feb. bit is learned that
Senator Fairbanks addressed Sir Wiifrid
Lau-fer respecting a reconyention of the
joint high commission as reported in the
Canadian disF atches, in pursuance of the
programme outlined when the Alaskan
boundary treaty was ratified. Sir VIII
frid and Senator Fairbanks are. respec-
lively. the chairmen OF the Joint commits
sian. and when that body adjourned in
could be reconvened only by the mutual
agreement of the two chaiFmen. Senator
Fairbanks was trying to effect this re-
convention when he addressed Sir Will
frid. but so far the answer of the latter
has not been received.
The Alaskan boundary was the rock
upon which the commission split at its
last meeting. for it was clearly evident
that upon all other issues there was u
reasonable prospect of agreement. How
ever. the rule in such cases is to require
the questions submitted. so all the other
issues welnt down with the failure OF the
Alaskan boundary propositions. Now it
is the purpose. the boundary matter hav-
ing been eliminated by arrangement. to
submit to a special committee to take up
again and adjust the same propositions
that were under consideration when the
commission adjourned.
Most important of these are the propO-
sitions to amend the treaty of Washing
ton so as TO permit the building Of war
ships on the great lakes. to define the
rights OF American and Canadian fish
errnen on the great lakes, 20 regulate the
use of the bond privilege for grain in
transit from one port of the country TO
another, crossing part of the territory of
the other.

NO TRUTH IN The REPORT.
Van Devanter Was Confirmed With
out Protest.
Especial to The Herald.)

Washington. Feb. 19.-The sensational
eport printed in Denver newspapers that
charges had been filed in the senate
against Judge Van DeVanter with q view
to preventing his confirmation as circuit
judge of the Eighth circuit, are without
truth. No charges were flied against
Van De vanter and his confirmation was
by unanimous recommendation of the
judiciary committee and unanimous vote
of the senate. Action on the nomination
was DELAYED at request of j. II. OWenby
of Denver. made through Senator Black
burn. Owenby claimed certain action had
not been taken by the department of
Justice in the Hull City Placer Mining
claim litigation, to which he was party,
at the instance of Judge Van Devanter.
Owenbv and his attorney, A. B. Seman
of Denver. reached here Monday and one
examination of the records of the case
in question showed them that in his con-
naction with the matter. Judge Van De
vanter. acting for the interior depart
ment. had recommended the action de-
sired by Owenby. and this had been de-
MED by the department of Justice. Owen
by not only made no charges, but at once
withdrew his request for delay on the
nomina ton.
The senate today passed the bill which
previously passed the house authorizing
the secretary of the interior to grant a
patent to the city of Buffalo Wyo for
fiftV-two acres of land for cemetery plIr-
poses, The lands are within the aban-
dOned Fort Mckinney military reserva-
ton, and are now partly occupied as a
cemetery by the Grand Army of the Re-
public and Spanish war veterans.

LATE MAILS ARRIVE.
Expected Another Batch of Delayed
Matter viii Arrive Today.

Although not a mail train arrived
from the east yesterday the postofhce
was almost swamped with postal mat
ter. Seventy nine "tie Sacks contain
ing papers, and twenty-five pouches,
were handled in the morning, but this
mass of papers and letters was taken
from belated trains at Ogden and
should have reached the city on Tues
day. Most of the sacks were received
during the night. but some of the mat
ter was brought down at noon yes
terday. In this last batch was the
matter from trains 8. and 1, which
should have reached the city on We'd
nesday.
The postoff1ce force was expecting
trouble and the day shift put in ap-
pearance early The men are not sup
posed to report before 1880 o'clock, hut
they were on hand at 6 o'clock. AS a
result Of the extra hours and some
hard work, the force had the belated
mail all out of the way by 3 o'clock.
1t is estimated that $4,000 letters were
handled for the city alone. A similar
amount of matter had to be rehandled
for branch lines, The out Of town
mail which is rehandled in this city is
sorted downstairs and forwarded to it's
proper destination. This mail was all
out of the way on time. Trains No

LONG" TOM WILLIAMS
HELPED TURN TRICK

Butte. Mont. Feb. 19-Additional evil
de1ce going to show that Long Tom
Williams was implicated with Cole and
Howard in the Burlington hold-up is said
TO have been unearthed today by the de-
tectives at work on the case
Since the confession of Cole the author
tiles have had a number of secret inter-
views with Howard and it is said. they
have "sweated' him most severely. II is
believed that it is upon information OBJ
talned from Howard that the detectives
are convinced that Williams was one of
the men involved in the plot and it is
also believed that Howard is the man who
told of the plot to STAY Cole in the event
of a big haul being made.
IL is stated that this new evidence is
in the shape of some correspondence be-
tween Cole. Howard and Williams during
the past three months. This correspond
ence, which is reported to have fallen
into the hands of the detectives. IS said
to refer to the pulling off of that lob, -
meaning presumably the holding up of
the Burlington train. although II is said
that the name of that railroad does not
figure in the letter.

TO STUDY SALARY INCREASE
Council VIII Not Act Hastily in the
Matter in the Future.


There viii be some tail figuring done
by the finance committee OF the coun-
ell before it recommends any ortii-
nances or resolutions raising the sal
aries Of city employees. And it would
not be a surprise to those who are IA
nailiar with city affairs should the head
of more than one department receive
hollce 10 reduce their present forces
pefore any overtures for additional pay
would be entertained either by the
council itself or the finance committee.
Ihere is a general disposition on the
part OF the council, speaking as a
whole, TO raise salaries But at the
same time there is feeling that some
OF the departments are loaded down
with employees; that the departments
could be conducted just as successfully
IT the future as they have been in the
past, with a force numerically smaller
than it is at present
With view to ascertaining just how
many employees there are in the differ
ent department, and the salary each
receives. a resolution was passed by
the council at its Monday night meet
ing calling for such information from
the head of each city department.
When that information has been re-
celVed, il will form the basis for in
Iedses throughout al the departments,
which will probably be petitioned for
during the course of the next few
weeks. If the council is of the opinion
that some of the departments have
more employees than they are really en-
titled TO. reduction will probably be
demanded. The money that would be
saved the city in that direction will be
used toward giving other employees the
increase that it is anticipated they viii
ask for in the immediate future
The payroll information asked of the
neads of the departments will be used
by the council in determining the in
creases which the applicants should re-
ce1ve. An effort will be made to grant
increases on proportionate scale, the
increase TO be a percentage of the sal
airy already being received by the en-
ploye. That method will likely be put
into effect to secure as equitable an in
crease all along the line as possible.

ONLY A SUGGESTION.
But 1t Has Proven of Interest and
Value TO Thousands.


Common sense would suggest that II
one wishes to become fieshy and plump
II can only result from the froc we
eat and digest and that food should be
albuminOus or fesh-forming food, ike
eggs, beeksteak and cereals; in other
words the kinds of food that make
flesh are the foods which form the
greater part of our daily bills of fare.
But the trouble is that while we eat
enough and generally too much. the
stomach. from abuse and oVerwOrk,
does not properly digest and assimi-
late it. which is the reason so many
people remain thin and under weight;
the digestive organs do not completely
digest the flesh forming beefsteak and
eggs and similar wholesome food.
There are thousands of such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics, although
they may have no particular pain or in
convenience. from their stOmachs.
If such persons would lay their preju-
dices aside and make regular prac-
tice of taking. after each meal. one or
two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. the
food would be quickly and thoroughly
digested. because these tablets contain
the natural peptones and diastase
which every weak stomach lacks. and
by supplying this want the stomach is
soon enabled to regain its natural tone
and vigor.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest
every form of fesh-forming food. raeat.
eggs, bread and potatoes, and this is
the reason they so quickly build up.
strengthen and inyigorate thin. dys-
peptic mer, WOMEN and children.
Invalids and children, even the most
delicate, use them with marked benent
as they contain no strong, Irritating
drugs, no cathartic nor any harm sul
ingredient.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
most successful and most widely known
of any remedy for stomach trouble
because 1t is the most reasona BILE and
scientific of modern medicines.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by every druggist in the United States
and Canada, as well as in Great Brit
ain, at so cents for complete treatment.
Nothing further is required to cure
any stomach trouble or to make thin,
nervous dyspeptic people strong. plump
and well.

CROSS STRIKES
THE CRESCENT
Christian Powers Bear Down
Upon the Mohammedan.
MAcED0EIA'S CRY is HEARD
WORKING OUT OF ONE OF THE
WORLDS PROBLEMS.

Paris. Feb. i9.-The Russian foreign
minister, Count I.amsdorf, has com
municated to the French government
the fact that Russia received yester-
day the last of the adherences of the
European powers to the joint note to
Turkey on the subject of reforms, thus
making the action of the powers unani-
nous, He accordingly directed NJ.
Zinovief, the Russian ambassador at
Constantinople, to proceed with Baron
Won Chalice. the Austrian ambassador,
TO the sultan and present the note to-
day. II was at first intended TO pre-
sent the Austrian note first, but this
was reconsidered in order to give added
force to the joint personal presentation.
1t was also desired TO secure the full
adherence of Germany, which was
somewhat conditional at first. The
unanimous action decided upon yester-
day includes that Of Germany.
The note, as finally framed, strikes
out all reference to Macedonia, as it
was considered that the designation of
one part Of the country by name would
increase the anti-foreign agitation
which the powers are seeking to check.
The note is generalized so as to cover
all the localities where Christians re-
side. the only locality specified beirg
three villages in northern Turkey in
which most of the Christians live. The
protection of the lives and the complete
safeguarding OF the interests of the
Christians form the chief features of
the note
In view of the unanimity of the
powers the officials here consider that
the sultan Is certain to accept the FRO
posed reforms, but it is not intended
TO terminate the question with the
presentation of the note. It viii be
followed speedily by further joint ac-
ton, including sending consuls of the
various powers throughout the Chris
tian regions to see that protection is
actually given and that the reforms are
really carried out. The authorities do
not hesitate to say that the note is only
the first step in the plans for the bet
terment of the condition of the people
under Turkish rule.
An official here said that while the
United States was not concerned in the
action directly, yet the protection de-
manded for all Christians would be IN
directly beneficial TO the American
Christians in Turkey.
