Philadelphia, Jan. 2o.-The Philadel-
phia and Reading Coal and Iron Com-
pany, the last of the aigaatory coil'pa-
ries to the arbitration plan, opened its
case today before the coal strike com-
mission.
This afternoon Attorney Wolve:ton
for the Reading, announced that at i
convention. held during the noon recess
between General MiY<ag Superintend-
ent Veith.of the Reading Coal Company
and George w. Hartley. secretary OF
the district miners union, it was agreed
that weighing of coal in the Ninth dis

coal fields is impracticahle. because OF
pitching veins. This settles, so far as

HAY ANSWERS FOSTER. q
United states Will Not Take Up Minor
nns.tions Until Alaska Boundary Is

Settled. .
s Washington, Jan. Ex-senator Foster
roccntly presented to Secretary nay
fhe request OF some of his constitu-
ante for fish hatchery at Frazier, IN
rsritish Columbia, which has called
forth q general statement from the sec
retary showing it to be the policy
fhe state department to take no action
on any minor question affecting the re-
1ations between the United States ann
Canada SO long as the dispute over tna
f,o,,ndary between British America ann
Alaska remains undetermined. In
letter to Senator Foster, the secretary
says:
..Thc Recommendations OF the joint
hiRncommissior, so far as they touch
the subjects upon which concurrent
opinions were reached are still in abey
ance, the drift Of sentiment on botl,
sides being that while an agreement
upon the subjects brought be-
fore the commission appeared
to be desirable and for the most
part obtainable, it seemed appropriate
to dispose of them as q whole subject to
the adjustment of the main question OF
the Alaskan boundary. The indisposi-
11on or the CaIaNldH government " as-
sent to the settlement of the subordi-
nate questions pending the disposition
OF the boundary question makes it un-
aikely that particular detail of the
general plan would be favorabiy con-
sidered by the British government al
This time. Moreover. the legal question
as to the Jurisdiction of authority of the
federal government to deal with the
question Is still unsettled. The prepon-
derance of opinion. however, being thai
1t should properly be settled by treaty
rather than by concurrent legislation o.
focal understanding, a circumstance
which would probably have weight
with the British government, which APP
parently shares the Canadian view thai
the boundary issues should be adjusted
in the first place.

Verbal Aliases.

When the report was recently clrcu-
lated that a prominent public man had
lost his life through accidentally in
haling a quantity Of carbon dioxide,
the man in the street began ut once in
auiring what carbon dioxide was.
AS a matter Of fact, carbon dioxide
ia merely another name for carbonic
acid gas, one of the products of COM
bustion aud constituent Of atmos-
pheric air.
Carbonic acid gas is known by sew
eral different names, as, for instance,
carbon dioxide, carbonic oxide and car
bonic anhydride.
CONSUMPTION as name for terri
Bile and widespread disease is known
and understood by practically every
man. woman and child in England.
But the medical fraternity, ever on the
lookout for something new in the way
of professional nomenclature, elected
some years back to call 1T phthisis,
and then just when that unspellable
word began to be known and recos-
nized they evolved yet another-tuber-
culosis.
And as with consumption so Win
most other complaints. a quarter or q
century ago even eminent physicians
were content to speak of smallpox, OF
typhoid fever, of lockjaw. Today they
are called yariola, enteric and tetanus
respectively.
Aloctor when giving evidence before
an ignorant east end jury the other
day said that the immediate cause OF
death was "a violent and prolonged
fit of combined epistaxis and stomator-
rhagia." 1t would, one would THINK
have been far easier for him to have
spoken Of bleeding at the nose anu
mouth, and he would at all events have
had the satisfaction of making himself
understood.
Most people now living can remem
ber the time when bacteria We're known
generically as animalculR-a not very
strictly scientific definition, perhaps,
but one easily Understandable. and con-
yeying, moreover, distinct idea e

To breathe the atmosphere and free

and his friends are almost sure to try
to arrange plan by which he can es-
cape the glaring headlines and the sem
sational stories of newspapers.
The president recognizes the deep
interest that would attach to his move
ments and the desire of the public to
keep track of his doings, but he does not
think 1t is necessary that everything he
does should be chronicled minutely each
day, especially full details of the escape
of every bear"

KING OSCAR is DEslLlTATED.
May Not Again Assume Throne
Queen is Also Sick.

Stockholm, Jan. 29.-king Oscar is
resting easy and fears regarding him
are considerably relieved. Nobody.
however, predicts either his early or
complete recovery. His condition i-
described as one of the extreme debil- :
ity. His memory is gone and his mind
less active than usual. Norwegian af-
fairs, especially the consular dispute.
We're the chief cause of his collapse,
which was aggravated by Prince Eu-
genes condition. Altho the crown
princes regency is styled temporary
it is not likely that King Oscar will
ever again assume the rulership Of the
people.
Queen Sophie is also seriously Ill.
She insisted on visiting the room where
Prince Eugene was undergoing an op
Grafton u week ago. The surroundings
caused her to swoon and she has been
sick ever since
