The United States contention was that
there are no mountains parallel with the

and that the boundary must therefore
be fixed under the provision of the origt-e
nal treaty relating TO ten leagues, and
so be run a distance of 35 miles from the

nal finds that the Canadian contention is

HUNTERS
FIND CLUE
TO MYSTERY
John MuIvsy's Clothing Found
Near Spot Where Unknown
Body Was Discovered.

Sunday Epherana Ps Whiting. who lives
at 500 Washington street and holds the
position OF vice grand chancellor In the
order OF knights OF Pythias, went with
a friend to Diamond hill for days
hunting. During their stroll they found q
lot of clothing. which consisted of a coat.
vest and hat The clothing. while in a
fair state OF preservation. looked as If It
had been exposed to the weather for
some time. In the pocket OF the coat was
a tax receipt for the city OF Providence
that bore the date OF Sept. ", 1902, and
was made out TO John Mulvey OF l7s De-
laine street.
Mr.. Whiting. became interested In the
matter and last evening he called at I7s
Delaine street but could find no trace OF
such a man. nor could others who were
interested in the matter. At the time this
receipt was made out ITS Delaine street
was known as the Gooden house and was
under the supervision OF woman, and
just about that time Ben. Whitaker took
the place, and all boarders and roomers
were told to get new boarding houses.
Most OF them went to a nearby cottage,
but at the cottage nothing was known OF
any Mulvey.
1t will be remembered that last spring
liic Douy VI tndH Was sIOuuu ABOUT a nhif
a mile from the spot where Mr.. Whiting
found the clothing and that the body had
on no hat vest or coat, and this body was
never identified. The police are quite con-
fdent now that those remains were no
other than those OF John Mulvey, but how
and when he died Is still a mystery.
Many local residents who were seen
by The News reporter this morning dis
tinctly recall that such a man as John
Muivey lived at that address on Delaine
street about st. Patrick's day q year
ago and were positive in their assertions
despite the statements of the people who
came from the boarding house.
From one OF the residents II was
learned that the man who boarded there
had brother Peter j. Mulvey. who
lived at lie Amherst street, and who
was man highly respected by his neigh
bors and all who knew him. He worked
at the Nicholson works as a file cutter
and when interviewed regarding the mat
ter said he had brother that disap-
peared about year ago st. Patrfck's
day. He boarded on Delaine street. Mr..
Mulvey stated, up TO the time he was
missing Mr.. Mulvey was greatly inter-
ested In this clue to the mystery sur
rounding HIS brother and started at once
for Cumberland, where he understood
the body OF the dead man was buried.
He intends TO have II exhumed and
should II prove his relative will have n
brought to this city and properly buried.

DECLINED TO SIGN.

In consequence OF the attitude MAIN
tained by the Canadian commissioners.
Lord Chief Justice Alverstone decided
this morning not to hold the proposed
public meeting of the Alaskan boundary
commission. but to hand Its decision to
agents OF the. American and Canadian
governments.
The Canadian ministers not only de-
clined to sign the award. but said they
would publicly withdraw from the COM
mission. They, as well as all the Cana
dians connected with the case, are very
bitter. kilograms from Premier Laurier
and other prominent persons in Canada
show that this sentiment Is shared Gen-
orally throughout the Dominion.

THE main question is which certificate
should be received. The statute recogs
nizes the existence OF parties and nomfs
nations by party. When two local caus
cuses claim 10 represent a party the ouess
tion Is. what is the text OF recognitiony'
Precisely this question arose In Mason vs.
Bennett, supra.
"The court decided that ths standing
OF a party in a town was to be determined
by the whole party itself as an organised
body, and where IL was organized with
officers OF genera authority in the party
for the state. the determination OF such
officers as to a question OF regularity or
recognition Is paramount. because they
REPRESENT the party as such.
"A party as a whole II presumed to
know It's parts. and part which is not
recognized by the party cannot claim to
represent II. Accordingly the recogni-
ton OF the Democratic state central conn
mittee by nomination In that case was
held 10 be the nomination by the Demo-
cratic party. The Democratic party has
repudiated the first nominations filed ana
has declared that the later nominations
alone are the nominations OF the party.
Following the decision made mors

Notwithstanding these facts the mem
bers OF the tribunal other than our
selves have now signed an award giving
two OF the islands, Kannaghunut and
Sitlklan TO the United States. These two
Islands are the outermost OF the four.
They command the entrance OF the Port
land channel and the ocean passage to
Port Simpson. their loss wholly destroys
the strategic value to Canada of the
Wales and Pearse islands.
There is in our opinion no process OF
reasoning whereby the line thus decided
upon by the tribunal can be justified. IL
Was never suggested by counsel in the
course or alignment that such line was
possible. Either the four islands belong ia
Canada or belong to the United States.
