indianapolis, Oct 20.-United States
Senator Charles w. Fairbanks, who
was chairman of the American mem
bers OF the joint high commission that
met at Quebec in 1898 to consider the
Alaskan boundary question, and who
has given long and careful study TO the
points involved, has given an explana-
ton of the dispute over the boundary
and a brief outline OF the subject. He
said:
THE decision OF the Alaskan bound
airy commission is merely a recOgni-
ton of the rights Of the United States,
which they purchased from Russia in
1867. In a treaty between Russia and
Great Britain in 1925 the boundary
between the two countries in Alaska
was fixed and when the United States
purchased Alaska she acquired the ter
ritory which belonged 10 Russia and
which was defined in the treaty OF
1926 between Russia and Great Brit

years ago, there was no dispute be-
tween the United States and Great

CAN'T ASSEMBLE COMMISSION.
Chanberlain's Recent Speech Respon-
sible for Canad1's Attitude.

Washington June 2.-Hope of the re-
assembling of the joint high commission
has again been abandoned. A few months
ago everything presaged a meeting of
the Joint commission in Canada, probably
Toronto, just after the adjournment of
the Canadian parliament. The matter has
progressed so far that the records of the
old commission were drawn from their
pigeonholes and preliminary exchanges
had taken place between Sir Wilfred
Laurier and Senator Fairbanks.
Mr. Chamberlain's speech in the British
parliament last week, it is said, Is largely
responsible for the new attitude of
Canada. The hope held out by him to
Canada of preferential treatment for
Canadian imports into England. has over
balanced any desire the Canadians might
have for reciprocity with the United
States. The reciprocity proposition was
the leading feature of the programme to
be submitted to the high joint commits
sion, and as the Canadians show no dis
position now to consider reciprocity, 1t is
said that there will be no occasion to re-
convene the commission for the consld-
Grafton of other and smaller subjects on
the programme

This move of Miss Rowley's has been

many requests from people residing on
South Highlands.
Mrs Orr's school, by the addition Of
a music department will pc one OF the
