ALVERSTONE
Canadian Commissioner Says the
Chief Justice Acted as UNI
pire Not as Judge.
Declares the Division of the Port
land Canal Islands Unwar-
ranted by Law.
New York Sun Special Service.


Toronto, Ont, Nov. "a. B. Ayles-.
worth, K. c., Canadian commissioner
on Alaskan boundary, was the guest
at banquet given by the Canadian
club last evening. Three hundred and
fifty persons were present. The ban
quet hall was appropriately decorated
with British and Canadian flags, and
the chairman, Rev. D. B. Macdonald,
the clubs president, deprecated the
reports sent out to the effect that the
meeting would be an anti-imperial one
and that no British flags would be dis
played. These remarks were empha-
sized by the strong imperial spirit that
characterized the gathering.
Mr.. Aylesworth said the three Brit
ish commissioners had first agreed that
the Canadian contention regarding the
four islands in the Portland canal
was unanswerable and that the Cana
dams were not aware until-the Satur-
day before the decision was signed
that their colleague was to take any
other view. The giving of two of these
islands to the United States was not
done upon any principle of law that
he knew of or could understand. It
was in fact a dividing of property in
dispute instead of an adjudication.
Van Couver's narrative showed that all
four islands should have gone to one
or the other Of the parties.
Mr.. Aylesworth said that Lord AL
verstone, in the proceedings, constitu-
ted himself an umpire rather than a
representative of the British side in
the case. He endeavored thruout to
smooth matters and recommended
Canadians to make the best Of the
case they had lost, adding that it
would take "a lot of decisions regard
ing the Alaska boundary to even strain
the relations between Great Britain
and Canada"

ANOTHER PLOT
IN COUNTY JAIL
The Wright County Desperadoes
Had Planned to Overpower
Their Guards.
Water Bottles Were to Be Their
Weapons-N Now They Drink
City Water.

A plot to put Jailer Clausen and his
guards out of the way by knocking
them over the head with water bottles
and then making good their escape is
the latest sensation unearthed at the
county jail
This plan Of desperate and deter
mined criminals originated, as have
several others recently, in the minds
of the desperadoes from Wright coun-
ty, confined in the local Jail upon
burglary and robbery charges.
Thru the faithfulness of some of
the jailer's TRUSTEES the plot was
made known to the officials this
morning and investigation followed.
All water bottles and other dangerous
moveables were taken from the cells
and two more Wright county prison.
ers, Thomas Burns and George Rus
sell, were placed in solitary confine-
ment.
Now that the plans of the prisoners
are known, their actions during the
past few days are seen to have been
very suspicious. One of the Wright
county men was found to have 500
in his possession which he is under
stood to have used for the purpose of
bribing the TRUSTEES" to give their aid
in carrying out the Jail delivery plan.
| For three or four days the prisoners
have been taking an unusual amount
of regular exercise as tho working up
their muscle for some difficult task.
More Saws Found.
In connection with this plot and
showing the determination of the
men, for the second time steel saws
have been found in the mems cells.
A careful scrutiny of the Jail last
evening disclosed five fine bar de-
stroyers artfully concealed in tobacco
bags in James Martin and James Des-
| mond's cells.
The tools had evidently been
brought by friends, despite the close
| watch kept over all visitors, and
shows more clearly than ever with
what desperate men the authorities
have to deal. The men in whose cells
the saws were found are now confined
in the prison dungeon on a bread and
water diet and greater care than ever
will be exercised by the Jail guards.
| A new installment of Wright county
| criminals was received at the Jail last
| evening. There are now fifteen of
these prisoners in custody here, and
all are believed to belong to the same
gang and to have the worst kind of
records, while some Of them are in the
category of professional Jail breakers.
| They will now all be kept separate,
| however, and it is believed that they
will be unable to make a getaway.

PERMANENT STATION
Significantly Enough Washington Of
ficials Say One May Be Established.


Washington, Nov. s.-The navy de-
partment received word to-day of the
arrival of the Nashville at Colon last
right thru cablegram from her cap
tain, Commander Hubbard. The de-
p rtment found it necessary to conceal
its purpose in dispatching the Nash
vile from Kingston to the isthmus and
it was supposed that she was pre-
vented from going to San Domingo be-
cause some of her machinery was out
of order. AS matter of fact the adj
vices received from the United States
vice consul at Panama more than a
week ago determined the state depart
ment. to have some ships of the United
States navy in isthmian waters.
Indeed, it is probable that, begin
ming with the termination Of the cere-
monies at Guatanamo, connected with
the turning over Of the new coaling
station, Admiral Cogh1an will be re-
quired steadily to maintain a anaval
force on the Atlantic side of the
isthmus. There are other reasons
than the Panama's situation for this as
the reports coming to the state depart
ment from the Cenral American coun-
ties north of Colombia reveal the ex-
istence. of turbulent and dangerous
conditions. Only this morning a

States consuls in Honduras stating

meeting of the public affairs commit
tee when the guest Of the day, Con-
gresham F. G. Stevens Of ST.. Paul,
was asked whether if the city built
a commerce road to the edge Of the
reservation, the government would
continue it across the reservation to
the fort.
The congressman replied that the
government already had mapped out
a system of roads which were to be by
far the best roads to be made, an OBJ
t ject lesson to the northwest.
Mr.. Stevens outlined in detail the
plans for Fort Smelling which the gov
eminent had in mind. Most of these
have been made public. He stated also
that battery of artillery for the fort
would arrive Thursday.
Appreciation of the work Of the
public affairs committee was expressed
by Congressman Stevens and he gave
the opinion that the facilities offered
last July for the entertainment of the
congressional committee added at least
a quarter of million dollars to the
| Immediate available funds for fort i'm
provements.

NARROW ESCAPE

Driver.

New York Sun Special Service.
New York, Nov. 3.-A furnace was
seethtng below the iron doors to the
cellar at No. AZ Vesey street last night
when the fire department arrived. Act
Ing Chief Daniel G. Conroy, standing
at the opening to the cellar, lost his
balance and plunged forward into the
cellar.
In falling Conroy reached out his
hands and caught one Of the open
doors, which was almost red hot. The
door slammed down but Conroy re-
tanned his grip and hung above the
flames while the hot iron scared in
the flesh Of his hand and arm.
Luke Teney, Conroy's driver, had
followed his chief closely and managed
to pull him out. In doing so he was
badly burned about the hands. At the
hospital it was found that Conroy was
frightfully burned about the body and
hands. The smoke from the fire spread
thru the lower end Of the city and in
the Astor house alarmed a number of
guests. The loss was heavy.

HEARS FROM BRENNAN

Have Been More Diplomatic.
From The Journal Bureau, Colorado Building,
Washington.
Washington, Nov. 3.-Indian Com
missioner Jones received a telegram
from John r. Brennant, agent at Pine
Ridge, S. D., that the Indians who
have been in the conflict with the
whites in Wyoming, are small num-
Der on leave Of absence from that
reservation. The agent has left for
the scene of the trouble with an inter-
prefer.
Another telegram from Senator
Warren Of Wyoming, states that the
Indian arrested is a Carlisle graduate
and Indian Commissioner Jones iden-
titles him as Raymond Smith, a half
breed, who has been constant source
of trouble for the agents at Pine
Ridge, for many years. He is about
IS years old, intelligent and born
leader, and has a family on the Pine
Ridge reservation.
Commissioner Jones does not know
how many Indians are off the reserva-
ton in that party, but says it is prob
able they were on their way to the
Grow reservation in Montana to visit
and that they probably killed an ante
loDc or two.
He said to-day that he believed If
the game wardens had been more
diplomatic in their treatment Of the
Indians there would have been no
trouble.

Snyder's secretary Of the legation will
be left temporarily in charge at Bo-
gotta, but will attend to nothing but
routine matters and clerical work.
This course is a sharp reply to the
official notification, recently brought
to Washington by a Colombian mes
senger, that If this country did not
materially increase its offer for the
canal, Colombia would open negotia-
lions for the control of the property
with syndicate Of German, French
and English bankers.
The recall of Mr.. Beaupre, which is
what an indefinite leave Of absence
under such conditions really amounts
to, is intended as a mild threat to Co
lombia and the European countries,
especially Germany, which are plan
ming indirectly to secure control of
the canal. That it will be so ac-
copied and will seriously embarrass, if
1t does not entirely forestall the pro-
posed negotiations with the European
syndicate, is thought to be certain.
