Nr.w Yuiik, July 28. Tlio Hernld'B
correspondent at Ottawa has interviewed
Sir Charles Tuppor, loador of tho ap
position mid Senator David Mills, minie
ter of justice on tlto Alaska boundary
question. Senator Mills went at greut
length to hIiow that tho Canadian con
tention was supported not only by Amer
ican precedents but by the language
of tho treaty.
"Tho settlement of tho question," ho
said, "In ueeorduneu with our conten
tion a mutter of great importance to
Canada, because it gives us easy and in
expensive Ingress to our own territory,
whereas, if tlio United Stntoa wine, it
will bo u great detriutunt to tia and of
iittlu bum-lit to them. I recall a bound
ary dispute botwouu tho United Stutot
Rial Great Britain in which tho Anier
lean authorities contended their views
ought to prevail becauao tho contention
was of great advantage to thnin without
being seriously injurious to England. "
After detailing their contention that
the Canadian line ,was to follow the
winding "of tho coast" and across the
mouth of Inlets and estuaries from head
lands to headlands without following
tho sinuosities of those urms oi tho sea,
Senator M 11 la made this statement:
"Just why the Americans refused to
arbitrate or to compromise exeopt on
conditions impossible to us ia shown in
the treaty or 1825. By tiio Seventh arti
cle of that treaty, 'the veesols of ituesiu
and England or those belonging to tiieir
subjects' were to bo at liberty without
any hindrance whatever to untor all the
inland seas, gulfs, havens mid creeks for
the purpose of flailing and trading with
the natives, Ily nrticlo 10, tho British
nml I'.usaian vessels navigating tho Pa
cific ocean, If compelled by storm or ac
cident, were allowed to take shelter in
the purls of the respective parties and
wore at liberty to refit there.
"Now Is It not too cleai to admit of
question that tho contracting parties as
sumed that under the proviHlons of this
truaty there were ports and estuaries
along the const that were under the sov
ereignty of each? Yet if tlio United
States1 contention is correct there woie
no purls and waters remaing to Great
llrltaiu. As n matter of fact if tlio
treaty ia followed, tho Lynn canol will
1)3 found to bo ontiroly within Canadian
territory. This point was made in tho
commission. On that Canada would
lmvo won. That is why there is no arbi
tration." Seven Babies nt a Birth.

MaunaLna is still in full blast. Tho lava

Hawaii are enveloped in smoke. Vessels

smoking freely and indications nie this
volcano will soon be in active eruption.
Frank Davey, a photographer, has re
turned from a visit to the volcano, lie
says there ia a aeries of eight craters ;
five of them wore dead, but appeared to
have boon active quite recently. One of
the others wan belching forth smoke and
fire and molten rocks of great size. Ac
cording to Davey, the rocks were as big
as horses and went eo high that they
cooled hofore fallintr to the ground again.
It took Davey and his party 15 hours to
ascend the mountain from the active cra
ter to the summit, where their horses
were left. Two men became delirious
from want of water.
The trip is described as a terrible t no
in tho extreme. All around the top of
the mountain was cold, but at the cra
ter It was verv hot, Tho extremes were
such as would knock most anybody out.

Sax Francisco, July 28. Samoan ad
vices under date of July 14, were receiv
ed today by the steamer Moanna as fol
lows: The situation in Samoa is one of
great uneasiness, the attitude of natives
being far from reassuring. Several fights
have occurred in different portions of
the islands between supporters of rivals
for the kingship, and several natives
have been killed. Nothing much seems
to have been accomplished by the high
commission since arms were surrendered
by the contending factions.
Chief Justice Chambers, being dissat
isfied with the support extended to his
court by the commissioners, will leave
today for Washington. Their action in
refusing the aid asked for to sustain the
court'B authority is said to have been
prompted by dispactches received by the
German commissioner from his home
government, which, it is claimed, is
greatly displeased with his recognition
of the eupteme court in the kingship
case.
The commissioners have been well re
ceived on all tho islands they visited.
They expected to sail for the United
States on tho Badger on July 10.
