UNFAIR TREATMENT
Is Hinted at by Canada in Alaskan
Boundary Matters.

Ottawa. Ont, Feb. 23.-The Alaska
boundary commission was discussed
at q meeting of the cabinet today In
an interview with a representative of
The Associated Press, tonight, cabi-
net minister said that while it might
not be proper to say that protest had
been made by Canada against the NOM
nation of Senators Turner and Lodge
to be representatives of the United
States on the commission, remon-
STRANGE had been made on the ground
that Canada was not being fairly
treated in the matter.
When Canada gave away to arbitra-
ton by tribunal as now proposed it
was with the understanding that three
judges of the United States supreme
court would be appointed to sit on the
case with British and Canadian judges
of repute on the other side.
The United States, ne said, has failed
to carry out this clause Instead the
United States government has appoint
ed, particularly in Senators Lodge and
Turner men who cannot be called i'm
partial juTists of repute as required by
the treaty. On the contrary, they are
looked upon as men who are strongly
antagonistic to Canada's claims Until
an answer is obtained to this remo.-

COMMERCE AND LABOR.
Sec. Corteiyou Informs Congress What
Department Now Needs.

Washington, Feb ga scheme for
the organizat ton of the new department
of commerce and labor has been laid
before Congress by Secretary Cortel-
you in the estimates transmitted to
that body, today, through the secreta-
ry of the treasury. In addition to the
II branches of the public service trans
ferred to the new department from
other departments which have been
appropriated for, Secretary Cortelyou
asks for appropriations for salaries ag-
eregating 1869, 500. The salaries cover
the secretary's office, the bureaus of
corporations and manufactures and
subordinate divisions. as follows
Secretarys office, 20 salaries, $3S,020;

of special examiners in the field, $685.

$30.9S0; in connection with the new du-

tics. $3.50.
In addition to the salaries are esti-
mates of $4,000 for rent; $150,C0O for
contingent expenses; $4,000 fer trav-
cling expenses of examiners: 100000
for printing and binding Gncluding
$250,000 for the census office.
In recommendation for a building for
his department, Secretary Cortelyou
urges that the future growth of the de-
partment be considered. He says it
should be so planned in advance as to
be not inferior in convenience or beauty
to the structures Which commercial and
financial houses at the great centers OF
American trade are erecting for the
transaction of their daily business"
He states it should have at least one
hall suitable for conferences or con-
crosses, international or national, and
dwells on the present inadequacy of the
present department buildings. He asks

What would you do the next time you
have a hard cold if you couldn't get Ayers
Cherry Pect0ral? Think it over. i ssasss:s

the President to Congress, Jan. 20, in
special message. President Roosevelt's
message conveyed to Congress report
from Secretary Hay, with accompany
ing notes and memoranda from the
Mexican ambassador and the Chinese
charge d'affaires. Mexico and China
are seeking tine cooperation of this
government in such measures as will
tend to restore and maintain a fixed re-
lationship between the moneys Of the
gold standard countries and the silver
using countries.
1t is not asked that the United States
modify it's monetary system, and it is
stated distinctly that there is no move
|ment in contemplation for the restora-
ton of International bimetallism. The
particular desire is that measures be
adopted that will prevent the great
fluctuations in exchange which now oc-
cur in trade with silver using coun-
tries. Citizens of the United states
now have investments in Mexico alone
aggregating more than half a billion
dollars. The earnings of these enter
prizes have suffered serious fall in
gold value with every fall in the value
of Mexican money. This fact it is sug-
gested, brings home to this country the
desirab ility of adopting some means to
insure the stability of exchange.
After considering the subject care
fully it was the opinion of the parties
at today's conference that it would be
wise for Congress to confer upon the
President authority to appoint three
commissioners of the United States to
participate in any international con-
ference on the question of the stability
of exchange that might be arranged. 1t
is expected that an effort will be made
at the present session to give that au-
thorty to the President. .s.

EARL OF DuNRAvEN
Has Greet Hopes for the Future Of
His Beloved Ireland.


London, Feb. 23.--The Earl of Dun
raven was interviewed, tonight. re-
garding The report of the Irish land
lord and tenants conference in Dublin
of which he was chairman. He spoke
hopefully regarding the prospects of
legislation which he thought would end
the difficulties in Ireland. Lord Dun
raven said:
1.-The utterances of King Edward and
of British public men, the temper of
Ireland, the reception of the confer
ences report by the public and the ac-
ton of the government since the publ
cation of the report are all favorable
indications pointing to the success of
the governments Irish land bill, which
if it contains a just and generous offer
will make good the first Impression on
which all depends. The bill if drawn
on the lines of the terms of the report
will insure a final settlement and re-
move the cause of friction in Ireland
which is reacting unfavorably not only
in Great Britain but throughout the
empire and on our kindred in the Unit
ed States" sq,1N
Lord Dunraven replied to the adverse
criticism of the representative saying
that the conferees could not lay down
specific formula to be adopted. They
were obliged to deal with the matter
on the broadcast lines, considering both
the interests Of the nation and those of
individual landlord and tenants. He
did not think that the government
would be able to specify strict for
mula which. if attempted, would con-
fuse the issue

A NEW DEPARTURE.
A New, EffectuaI and Convenient Cure
For Catarrh.

OF Catarrh remedies, there is no end,
but of ciitarrh cures, there has always
been Il great scarcity. There are many
remedies to relieve, but very few that
really cure.
The old practice of snuffing salt wa
ter through the nose would often re-
lieve, and the washes, douches, powders
and enhalers in common use are very
little, if any, better than the old fash
toned salt water douchc.
The use of inhalers and the appli-
cation of salves. washes and powders to
the nose and throat to cure catarrh is
no more reasonable Claa 10 rub the
back to cure kidney disease. Catarrh
is Just as much blood disease as
kidney trouble or rheumatism and it
cannot be cured by local treatment
amy more than they can be.
To cure catarrh whether in the head,
throat or stomach an internal antisep-
tic treatment is necessary to drive the
catarrhal poison out of the blood and
system, and the new catarrh cure is
designed on this plan and the remark

crs everywhere. He says: II neglected

COAL TRANSPORTATION.
II Doesn't Appear that There Was
Cause for Investigation.


Washington. Feb. 23-The sub-com-
mittee of the House committee on the
merchant marine and fisheries which
Went to Boston to investigate the sub.
ject of coal transportation reported to
the full committee, today, the results
of the hearing held.
The report of the sub committee re-
cites among other things: THE evil
dence taken satisfied the sub-commit-
tee that there was no question as to
the sutticiency of tonnage for water
transportation. The subcommittee in
vited testimony and suggestions from
all parties interested There was no
evidence before the subcommittee
that there was difficulty in the matter
of water transportation between the
terminal coal ports and New England.
Nothing appeared that would justify a
favorable report on the resolution that
give rise to this inquiry although it is
true that during its tendency there had
been n material change in conditions.
The committee reported also that no
difficulty existed in the matter of
terminal facilities.
The report reviews the conditions
found from the evidence to have exist
ed but upon the question as to whether
any understanding between the coal
roads and coal operators existed the
subcommittee expresses no opinion
Owing to the fact that the session is sc
near an end the subcommittee finds il
impossible to continue the investiga'
ton.

SETTLED FOR WINTER
American Fishermen Cannot Escape
from the Ice Floes.

Halifax, n. S., Feb. 23.-The COM
mander of the United State revenue
cutter Seminole, today, secured a
2500-pound anchor from the admiralty,
as one suitable could not be purchased
in this city. The cutters anchors were
lost at Port Aux Basque when the run
ming ice crashed down on her. The Of
ficers say that the cutter could not get
within 100 miles of the schooners
though the navigating officer went
overland and communicated with the
crews at distance of 10 miles.
The captains of the three Canadian
schooners frozen in with the others
sold their cargoes to the Americans,
left two men in charge of the vessels,
and walked over the ice to the shore.
The officers state that the Americans
now regret having made purchase, as
the fish will probably. be of no value
by the time the vessels escape in the
spring.
The Seminole is badly scraped, but
not injured.
