Genelle Waived Right to Freedom --Went Through Disputed Ter- ritory Quietly, and is Now in a Canadian Jail. Ottawa, Aug. 7.-- There will be a searching enquiry made into the wrecks in Canadian waters this season. The minister of marine! has given Commander Spain to make <uch an investigation. The wrecks far are: The: Indiana, on Minigan Island; the Sahara, on Biequette Isl- and; the Monteagle, at Fame Point; all on the St. Lawrence; and the Blaamenden, on: White Ledge, -off Can- so. » The Northwest Mounted Police have succeeded in getting Genelle, the man wanted in Dawson on the charge of conspiring te burn boats on. which he held insurance through ¢he disputed territories to White Horse, on Can- adian soil. When the arrest was made CGenelle's lawyers threatened to sue the Pacific Transportation com- pany if they carried the prisoner through the 'territory under the Unit- ed States administration. The prison- er. however, had but one alternative, by way of Fdmonton, and it is thought here that perhaps this had considerable to do with the withdraw- al of any action to prevent his being transported over United States terri- torv. The United States and Can- adian governments work together in this matter in that the United States people are allowed to bring prisoners through Canadian territory to White Horse, in return for which they allow Canadian prisoners to be taken over their territory for twenty miles south of White Horse. Dy this arrangement the Unitea States government save transporting prisoners over two thou- sand miles by way of the Yukon river. oraers R20 LONDON"S FINE WELCOME.
