ALASKA BOUNDARY TREATY
Secretary Hay and Ambassador Her
bert Sign a Convention.
PROVIDES FOR MIXED TRIBUNAL

Ane commission Will Have Three on .
Side, With No Odd Man to Break q
Tie = It Has Taken Three Years to
Reach h Present Agreement Be
lieved Senate VIII Ratify the Treaty.
Washington, D. C.-Secretary Hay
and Sir Michael Herbert, the British
Ambassador. have signed a treaty pro-
viding for the settlement of the Alaska
boundary question. Efforts in that di-
rection have been put forth for a long
time, the pressure coming from both
sides, the Canadian miners being anx-
ious to get through the Klondike to the
sea without passing through American
territory and the Americans insisting
upon their right to the coast line and
the control of the ports.
Ihe treaty provides for the reference
OF all these boundary questions to a
mixed tribunal, three on each side. to
determine the Interpretation to be
placed on the treaty of 1925 between
Great Britain and Russia, which de.
fined the boundaries between British
America and Alaska. This proposition
is virtually the same as that brought
forward by the American members of
the high joint commission which met
in Washington three years ago, but
which then was rejected by the British
and Canadian representatives. 1t has
taken three years to obtain the consent
Of the British and Canadian v
ments to adjust the boundary dispute
on the present basis.
It is understood that the treaty has
been drawn up after thorough consul
tation with the leading members of the
Senate Of both political parties, the Adj
ministration desiring to do everything
possible in advance to make certain it's
ratification.
The commission proposed is curious
In composition, consisting of an equal
number Of members upon each side
without an umpire or odd man to cast
the deciding vote. No other terms of
arbitration would have been accepta.
Bile to the people Of the Northwest, who
see in this arrangement a practical ex-
tinction Of any chance of a decision
hostile to their plans. On the other
hand, to get a verdict favorable to the
American claim our case must be SO
strongly presented as to win the sup
port of at least one of the Canadian
contingent.
The treaty will be submitted to the
Senate and the effort will be made to
ratify it before the expiration Of the
present session.

PASSES WORTHLESS CHECKS

Frank Mansfield was a passenger on the north bound train yesterday for Los Angeles, but the chances are that his stay will not be as long as he had anticipated, for telegram was sent to Kingman late yesterday to arrest him on a charge of having given checks on a bank in Prescott with out the necessary money on deposit to pay the same. The check was given to the Palace saloon, on whose com plaint the telegram was sent to have him arrested. This is not the first time this thing has happened to NIT. Mansfield, he having been arrested some weeks ago on a similar charge, but the case was passed over to give him a chance to make the matter all right, and being a young fellow the papers of the city did not say any thing about the matter at the time. He will probably be brought back to Prescott tonight for trial.

These occasions are al ways looked forward to by party goeri with much pleasurable anticipation and are always looked back upon witl only pleasant memories, as the St. Patrick people never fail to have 6 good time, and to give all who attend their balls the same. The decora- tions for last nights balll were very beautiful and artistic, as we'll as ap- propriate. There were about one hundred couples in attendance and to the excellent music furnished, dancing was indulged until the early hours of morning.

REFUSE TO RETURN.
The Austrian Strikers Will Not Come
 to Terms

As was expected, the party of Aus trians numbering about 60 arrived in Prescott yesterday evening about 1 :OO o'clock aud they were a pretty badly tired out crowd, and ill anything but a good humor, being very tired and hungry. As soon as they arrived they took up headquarters at the Depot sa- loon and sent delegation up town to purchase provisions for the party as there are only two or three who can talk any English, most of them being recent arrivals from Austria.
 As soon as they arrived Journal Miner man went to the party to see if possible what the trouble was about and if there was any chance of the difficulty being patched up and the men going back to work. It did not take long to determine that point, for they as one man determined never to go back to that camp to work. One of them who could talk few words

It is likely that the trouble with the Austrians which was spoken of in these columns last evening is not at an end as yet. Deputies Noble and Campbell had instructions yesterday to search the whole bunch of men who were marching to Prescott and to bring those who were found armed to Prescott and turn the balance loose, but MT. Noble informed the Journal-Miner that to have done so yesterday would have been to raise a riot and it might have been necessary to have killed some of them or got killed, as the men were in a bad hu- nor and were tired and hungry, and very few of them understood Ia word of English and would have been a | terrible lot of men to antagoniZe. So they waited till MT. Eaman, the time keeper, arrived and he identified the man who had pulled the gun on him and he was brought to town while the ! balance of the lot were turned loose. | The man they brought with them is the ring leader of the lot and it is likely that the others may be induced to go back to work. The prisoners name is Joe Novkovic, a great big Austrian, who stands six feet three and physical giant among men. He talks few words of English, and has been the foreman of the gang on the railroad work in the east and this seems to be the cause of the present trouble to a great extent. He says he was promised the job of foreman be- fore they came here and because they would not make him foreman he quit and induced the other men to quit with him.
 Mir. Eaman, the time keeper, was seen today and said the reason that Joe had not been made foreman was because he knew nothing of rock work and nearly all their work now is in rock and it was impossible for him to do the work. Another cause they claimed for quitting was that the con- tractors charged them too high for their provisions. Regarding this charge Mir. Eaman says the contract ors only charged them exactly the same that they would pay in Prescott.
 Mr. Eaman says the reason the gun play was made was that be met the men as they were coming to his office for their time and reminded them that they were still in debt to the company for their transportation from Chicago besides blankets and provisions since their arrival, and he insisted that they pay the company what they owed it before quitting. At this big Joe pulled his gun and commanded him to stand aside, which he very politely did He says he thinks the most of them are armed as they are in the habit of target practicing with their six shooters every Sunday.
 They are expected to arrive in Pres colt this evening and when they get into town they will be searched and if they still have their guns on them they will be dealt with according to law.
 Miss Atwood, who is here represent ing one of the largest labor bureaus in the country, and who was instrument tai in bringing these men to this place, has been using her utmost abil ity to get the men to return to work, and when they get there and she has an opportunity of talking to them she may be able to accomplish her pur poses, now that their. leader has been put out of the way.

A TOPOGRAPHIC MAP
Of the Bradshaw Mountains Made
 by Geological Survey.

As rapidly as funds permit topo- graphic surveys are being made by the United States Geological Survey of all important mining regions in the western states, and also of those re- gions where the irrigation problem is the most important one. For several years past particular attention has been paid to surveys in Arizona. The latest map of part of that region is the Bradshaw Mountain atlas sheet It covers an area of about 1000 square miles, lying between Prescott and Phenix, and includes large part of the Prescott forest reserve. It is on a scale of about two miles to one inch. Elevations above sea level are given in figures to the nearest foot for all important mountain peaks; also for numerous bench marks. Elevations of other points are shown by contour lines, representing vertical invervals of 100 feet. All important mines, all roads and towns as we'll as each de, tached house, are accurately located. These maps are sold at the nominal price of five cents each.
 The development of this region has been retarded by the high cost of transportation and the scarcity of water. A railroad line now under construction from Mayer to Grown King, with numerous spurs, will re- duce the transportation cost, and a scheme under consideration will, when successfully carried out, furnish cleo tric power to many of the mines and so avoid the need for more water than can be supplied. Besides the gold, which is the principal mineral of the region, there is an extensive deposit of onyx of fine quality. Another i'm portant product of the region is the timber, of which there is still a good

ROBERT HUNTERS DEATH.

Word was received in Prescott last
 night from Mrs. D. K St. Clair, who
 left here Sunday morning in response to telegram that her father was not expected to live, that she had received wire at some station in New Mexico conveying the sad intelligence that her father, Robert Hunter, had died Monday morning. As she could not reach home before Wednesday evening the funeral of her father will likely take place at the old home in Rock Port, Mo-, today, Thursday. The news will be received in Prescott by Mrs. St. Clair's many friends with feelings of deep sadness, as the double be- reavement in the loss of her husband and father in less than a week, will be a terrible blow to the little lady. It is expected that Mrs. St. Clair will bring her mother to Prescott to make her future home as soon as she is able to travel, she too having been quite sick with the grippe.
 Mir. Hunter was at one time one of the most influential and wealthiest business men in northern Missouri, but being of a generous and open hearted nature he was imposed upon by false friends and lost large sum of money on account of being on notes and bonds of other m9n. Other reverses in fortune came to him in his declining years which so discour- aged him that his health failed him and for several years he has been al- most an invalid, until death has at last brought him rest and freed him from the cares of earth. He visited his daughter, Mrs. St. Clair, in Pres colt, two years ago and while here be- came interested in some mining prop ositions in the Tonto Basin country, and it was the intention to begin act i've operations on the properties this season. Geo. KelI, the we'll known mining man was interested with him.
