NBW YORK. July 28. A special to
the Herald .from Ottawa says : Sir
Wilfrid Laurler , the Canadian premier ,
stated to the Herald In explanation of
tlio contention of Canada In the
Alaskan boundary question :
"As a member of the commission
and participant In the negotiations , "
ho said , "I am not at liberty to give
to the public any more than I have
done already on Information bearing
on the difference between us and the
United Stales. I think I can say this
much In explanation , however : Prac
tically the whole dispute now Is clr-
cumscrlbablo to the cstahllslinioni of
tlio boundary linn In the region of
Lynn canal. The public Is aware that
the Canadian contention Is that the
line crosses the Lynn canal near Its
! entrance , whereas the American con
tention Is thai the line gocu around
the Lynn canal , leaving tlio entire
canal In American territory.
"If the contention wore reduced to
the exact location of the line , I think
the solution might prove to be of com
parative ease. Hut the Americans have
establishments at Skagway and Talya.
In our view , the Americans at that
point are on Drills ! ) territory , but wo
have ' .o rccognlzo the fact that they
are tl.ere all the same.
"At ono time wo thought wo could
liavn made the compromise and nr-
ranged thai boundary by conventional
agreement and mutual concessions. I
am betraying no secret when I nay
thai the commission could not agree
on such a compromise. Therefore , as
wo cannot agree among ourselves , we
must ask tlio assistance of friendly
arbitrators. The points to bo sub
mitted to the arbitrators might bo the
following :
" 1. Which Is the right Interpretation
of the treaty In regard to the location
of the boundary line on the Lynn
canal ? Is It the Canadian or the Amor-
lean contention ?
" 2. In the event of arbitrators de
claring that the Canadian contention
Is the right one , then the subsidiary
conslderallon would have to be decided ,
what disposition shall bo made of
Talya and Skagway , which are Amer
ican Bctlllcmcnts ? "

LINCOLN , July 28. From reports
received at the Nebraska w'eather sta
tion It appears thai Ihe rain yesterday
was finite general all over Nebraska.
The rainfall was greater around
Broken Bow than In Iho eastern portion
tion of the state.
As the reports received today include
only the rainfall up to 7 n. m. , It is
quite probable that lUwus much heav
ier than reported In many Instances.
In Ihe eastern portion the heaviest rain
fell after 7 o'clock.
Section Director Loveland reports
the rainfall for the season slightly be
low normal , but the crops all over
the stale are In an excellent condition
and so far as known no damage has

or died ot heart disease.
The trial of Luetgert In Chicago at-
Iracled wide attention and was ono of
the most sensational in Iho history of
Iho state. Luetgert was charged with
having murdered his wlfo In the base
ment of his factory and cooking the
body In a vat. The prosecution had
but a few small bones and two rings
as evidence that its theory was cor
rect , but secured conviction and a life
sentence.

G. 10. Towlo of South Omaha , one of
the Nebraska hoys who came ever u
few days ago , was Interviewed yester
day. Ho gave it as IIH ! opinion that
the war In the Philippines could never
bo ended by treaty , for the reason that
the Insurgent forces wore all broken
up Into predatory bands , with no at-
lempl at agreement between them , and
a treaty would have to bo made with
each leader , and no certainty thai it
would bo respected after being made.
Ho said the Tagals were now little bet-
ler than tribes of bandits , warring
alike on the Americans and on the
residents of Iho Islands , and sometimes
on each other. Towlo says Ihore Is a
sentiment in Iho regiment that Iho
campaign has not been well managed ,
ind that It might have been pressed
much faster. Ho snya Ihe Nebraska
boys will como home very tired and
worn out and that If they have the
same experience thai was had on the
Morgan , the hospital ship , the passage
homo will be unsatisfactory , on ac
count of rations and the treatment by
the ship's ofllcers.
The list of Nebraska boys who came
over on the hospital ship Is as follows :
Company A Eugene Shaw , Frank
C. Tunoy.
Company D Corporal Charles T.
Knapp , John .1. Bloom.
Company B Noah B. Land , Walter
L. Smelley , Henry Bliss.

CLEVELAND , July 28. The following - '
ing communication , signed by the leaders - i
ors of all the more important labor
unions In the city , was issued yester
day :
"To the sympathizers of the striking
street railway employes in Cleveland :
"Wo , the members and representa
tives of organized labor unions , appeal
to you to please refrain from using
abusive language , the throwing of mis
siles of any kind or the using of ex
plosives against the Big Consolidated
Street Railway company's property.
"
"Although some may think that this
course will help the strikers , wo know
that It IB doing the union street car
men an injury and is detrimental in
more than ono way to thorn. Wo beg
that you give your support In other
ways than unlawfulness. "
There was little change In the street
car strike situation yesterday. As a
result of the vigilance of the police and
soldiers patrolling the streets last
night very few obstructions wcro found
on the tracks of the Big Consolidated
lines lit daylight. Much satisfaction
is expressed on all sides o\er the callIng -
Ing of a special meeting of the city
council to bring about , If possible , a
settlement of the strike.
President Billman of the latter body
will In all probability appoint lite same
committee to act in the matter which
succeeded In ending the street car
strike of last month.

SAN FRANCISCO , July 29. Chief
Justice W. L. Chambers of Samoa ar
rived hero yesterday on the steamer
Moana , accompanied by his family. He
is on a four months' leave of abaence ,
but says that his business in the United
States is of such a nature that ho will
probably not return to Apia.
In an Interview the chief justice said :
"All iu now quiet In Samoa , but I
cannot answer for the future. Both
Mataafa and Mallcton ulfcct to be sat
isfied with the present arrangement ,
which abolishes the ofllco of king and
vests the responsibility of government
In the consuls of the three powers. I
fcol sure Mallotoa is sincere in this.
Though fairly elected , and after elec
tion accepting the kingship , he never
had ambitions in that direction. As
soon as the commission arrived ho
proposed to resign , a spirit which later
proved to bo in accordance with the
plans of the commissioners , and I have
every reason to believe that he will
live up to his bargain.
"Mntuafa is ambitious. For many
years he thirsted for power and will
not bo so easily satisfied. At the same
time ho is a man of exceptional ability ,
is shrewd and I have never thought
the interests of the natives would es
pecially suffer In his hands.
"Yes , my decision has been sustained
by the commission and it has pub
lished the fact in a proclamation.
"With respect to the future I can
say little. There Is the problem. In
its work the commission has endeav
ored to eliminate from the original
arrangement all features that have
appeared faulty or weak , Those sec
tions have simply been struck out ,
leaving nothing in their places. What
will rob the whole document of proper
effectiveness Is the tripartite treaty
under which It will have to operate.
I am sure that no government in
Samoa will succeed under such an
arrangement. The sooner the powers
see this and formulate some correc
tion the better for all concerned. "
Judge Chambers said ho had finished
up all of the cases to come before the
court this summer. The commission
is empowered to appoint a chief justice
nd Interim to act 'In case anything
arises before a permanent appointment
is made. Up to the time Chambers
left the commission had not decided
who the new man woiud be.

WASHINGTON , D. C. , July 29. The
secretary of the Dewey homo fund re
quests the publication of the following
statement :
There can no longer bo any doubt
as to whether a home will be pur
chased by popular 'subscription for
Admiral George Dewey. At a meeting
of the national Dewey fund committee
today it was found that the aggregate
amount of cash actually received by
Treasurer Roberts is $10,700 , from a
total of over 2.3,000 subscribers. One
hundred and three subscribers gave
$10,000. The statement was made that
the $6,000 promised some time since
by the New York Journal would bo
forthcoming shortly , bringing the grand
aggregate up to $21,700. The commit
tee agreed to close the subscriptions
before the arrival of Admiral Dewey
In New York in September , and then
to proceed , after consultation with the
admiral as to location , etc. , to pur
chase the home with whatever funds
they may at that time have in hand.
Wo will purchase the homo If not
another dollar Is received , so that the
question now Is whether the patriotic
and generous people of the country will
permit the purchase of a homo at the
nation's capital for the hero of Manila
with $20,000 or $30,000. Therefore
those who dcslro to contribute are
urged by the committee to contribute
at once. All contributions should bo
forwarded to Hon. Ellis H. Roberts ,
treasurer of the United States , Wash
ington , D. C. , who will issue souvenir
receipts for the same. *
