Senator Fairbanks, when Interviewed,
placed importance on the fact that ho
must sit with the joint high commission
Id AupiiKt, but declined to state what
lines of argument he would take up. lte
gartliiiK boundary matters that were dis
cussed iluiinx the four weeks spent in
Alaska Senator Foster declined to spunk.
"Personally," he said, "1 am opposed
to yielding an inch of I'lilted States ter
ritory. A careful investigation, however,
demonstrates that there may be different
constructions placed upon the treaties
involved ns regards channels, thositmitioii
of lesser islands and the like. Hut in the
main the I'nited States is plainly pivon
a strip of territory north of l'ortland ca
nal or thereabouts ten marine lenpucs
inland, except where a well defined
mountain ranuo pluced the boundary
nearer the coast. This strip runs to
Mount St. Elias. Many contend ut the
pusses that the wutershed back of Sku
Rtmy and I'yen is the dividing line. On
the one side are the head waters of the
Yukon and on the other the streams
Sowing into Lynn canal are formed, lie
tween these two districts there is n
chain of mountains, in the opinion of
time bringing the boundary line some IS
miles nearer the coast. This seems to be
a fair expression of the American view
of the boundary question, lly this con
struction of the treaty it is held England
will receive the benefit of every point
that fun be fairly and honestly granted.
"On the other hand, however, the Ca
nadians and ninny of the English hold
that the boundary should be drawn 30
miles, or ten marine leagues, inland from
the headlands, lly such a construction,
of course, I.ynn canal would be an inlet
into Canadian territory, and three ma
rine leagues inland from the headlands
at the entrance would be many miles
south of Skaguay and Dyen, and hence
Canada and England would have the
coveted port of entry without a question
of doubt. As I look upon it personally,
Lynn cuual is a part of the ocean. It
would be unfair to draw a line 30 miles
inland from the entrance to bodies of
water of thnt nature uud call it the
boundary under the treaty."
The I'arla Off the Rorki,
LONDON, July 12. The salvagers
have moved the American line steamer
Paris astern for a distance of 150 yards
and have shifted the vessel's position
lightly to the eastward. They hope to
be able to get the after stokehold fires
alight. The Paris is now clear of the
cockB. The sea is smooth, but a heavy
fog prevails. The intention of the sal
vagers was simply to slew the stern of
the liner so as to facilitate the opera
tions of the divers, but it was found thnt
she moved more freely than was expect
ed. Three salvage boats alone practi
cally removed her from a critical position
unaided. She still has a distinct list,
however, to the starboard and cannot be
lussumod out of danger. The tugs are
preparing to tow her to Fulmouth har

JO MKT, Ills., July 11. Dr. Itomnlne
J. Curtiss of this city, an eminent author
ity and writer on bacteriology, who for
merly held the chair of this science in the
Chicago College of Physicians and Sur
geons, has written un open letter to An
drew Carnegie iu which ho states that
if the li ti 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 being adapts his environ
ment to his life and the possibilities of
his organism he can live 1.0'HI years; that
the secret of long life is the destruction
of parasitism, and that the establishment
of an institution for the teaching of hy
giene would require $."iO.(MKI.O(lO, but
would be the greatest investment made
for human welfare since tl:e birth of
Christianity.
Further, he Invites Mr. Carnegie to
supply the necessary money and so be
come the world's groatevt b ncfactor to
mankind. Dr. Curtiss writes In part:
"The average longevity Is from to
30 years, mid the average ilcnth rate is
".2 per MX'ii, One pcr.-m In I.inni.oim)
lives to be 100 years old.
"It is a scientific truth that parasitism
is the cause of death. Therefore the ab
solute destruction of parasitism can in
crease the duration of life to 1.000 years.
"The whole tendency and custom of
the world is to shorten life. Latterly n
new energy of the most powerful propor
tions is at work to slide the scale of He
reditary length of days n notch further to
ward Infancy. This is the custom of em
ploying only young men and discharging
all hands at 80 years of ago. This force
alone in 100 years from now will so
change mental powers that men will be
in their prime at 25 and unfit at 40."
THE TEXAS FLOOD.
Continued Report of Snfferlnar From

AUSTIN, July 11. Governor Snyres
and a corps of assistants spent yesterday
working in behalf of flood sufferers up

ports from the stricken district nre to the
effect that while the waters are rapidly
receding the condition of the flood suffer
ers Is improving very little. The govern
or received official reports from Vclaseo,
the southernmost point, that everything
was in fairly good condition there, with
22 feet of water prevailing. He has re
ceived n telegram from the citizens of
Hcnrue stating that they hud fought
alone as long ns they could and would
now have to ask public aid. that all the
property in that section had been laid
waste, they were starving anil homeless
and needed money, food and clothing.
Their wants will be supplied nt once.

that there were 1,200 sufferers in the
counties on Mills creek nnd 1,000 in the
creek bottom iu absolute need. From
numerous other portions of the flooded
districts similar reports came pouring iu.
Governor Snyres stated yesterday that
the effort on the part of some to belittle
the dumage attendant upon this Hood
was actuated by motives that lie could
not understand, thnt during his long resi
dence iu Texas he hud never seen a
worse calamity befall its people, and that
from reports he had at his disposal he
was led to believe thnt the list of suffer
ing would be very large.
