Last Friday the recruiting station

as chief musician. As the band is un
der contract to play at Greensboro at

Tupper's Threatening
Speech Has No Ef
fect, at Washington.
A Temporary Understanding
- Will Shortly be
s
(Reached.
Some Talk of Concessions to
Canada, But Not
Credited.
As United States Owns the Property
Canada Has Nothing to Lose
in Arbitration.
Washington, July
24.-- Despite the
threatening speech of
Tupper a very
nopeful reeling in regard to ths Alas
kan boundary negotiations prevailed in
official diplomatic circles today". It was
said by an official who was familiar
with every stage of the notiarinn.
that he? was hopeful that a temporarr
understanding concerning the bound
ary would be reached shortly. Can-
ada as showing a more reasonable spr
it, he said, and has signified her will
ingness to make concessions. There Is
Jme talk today about oompromislnar
the dispute by an offer on the part of
the United States to grant England '
harbor privileges on the Lynn canal;
but it is not likely that the United
States will make additional concessions
in tfvs respect. Officials here are dis
posed to laugh at the statements of
Laurier and Tupper that the United
States is afraid to submit the dispute
to arbitration because its case is weak.
It is contended by Washington author
ities that this very claim of Canada .
shows her case is weak, for the United
States hold most of the territory in
dispute, and in the decision of arv ar-"
bitrator, Canada would have nothing to
lose if the decision was against her,
and everything to gain if in her favor..
ROOT, NEW SECRETARY
OF WAR, IN WASHINGTON
Held a Conference With the President
Until After Midnight.
Washington, July 24. ETlihu Root,
the new secretary of war, arrived In
Washington at 10:30 tonight, and drove
to the Arlington, where he was met by
Cortelicue, acting secretary of war.
Presently he was escorted to the white
house. He remained with President
McKinley until after midnight. He
will have a further conference tomor
row. A LATE CAR.
Regular Trips on Depot Line Until
One O'clock,
Beginning with last night the Ashe
ville Street Railway company put on a
late car, making regular trips from
Patton avenue to the jpassenger depot
from 11 o'clock until the 1:10 train "ar
rives from Salisbury and the east,
which it will meet.
The car will leave the square at .11
o'clock for the depot and will make two
regular forty-five minute trips,. Then
the crew will take the Battery Park
special and get passengers from the
Battery Park and also take the ex
press car down to the depot, making
the regular run of the . special on the
same schedule.
When the hew trains were recently
put on the Southern it greatly increased
the work of the crew of the Battery
Park special, and they could only get
about three hours of sleep at one time.
To alleviate this one of the late crews
of the regular cars will run later, re
lieving them, of that train.
