Great Britain wins on and five. Point five has been held Great Britain as the most important ol those submitted. 3 The fifth point was stated in the form of this question: 'From where must be measured the three marine miles of any of the coasts bays, erevk or harbors referred to in article 1 of the American-British treaty of 18187" United States fishermen = claimed the right to take the nuasure from any part of the British North American shore, and, therefore, the liberty to fish in the middle of any Canadian bay or estuary having a radius of more than three miles. The British conten: tion was that the lindts should be measured from an imaginary line con- necting the head lands, The peace gourt sustained the British contention. "he points won by Creat Britain ive that country the right to regu ate the time and methods of fishing and the implements used and estab- lished the three mile limit around Newfoundland from head land to head land, and not following the line of the bays, as contended by the United Mtates.

London, Sept. 8~The British eol- otal office received the announcement ; ¢ decision HE BROKE THE FALL | THAT VETO CONFERENCE. Members Constantly in Touch With King George. London, Sept. 8.--The only centre of political interest is Balmoral, where the members of the veto conference are turning up week after week. David Lloyd George, chancellor of the ox- chequer, on his return from the con- tinent today, will take the prime minister's place as minister in attend- ance, and Lord Crewe will sueceed him in the course of a fortnight, 'The king is keeping in close touch with those who are attempting to settle the constitutional question. Lord Cawdor, who has been conducting ne- gotiations with Augustine Birrell, will be one of the guests at Balmoral be- fore the end of September. The king's influence in effecting a settlement before the coronation may be as strong as his father's wae in winding up the Boer war by timely concessions. Members of parliament of both parties, after consulting the local leaders, bear testimony that the country is not vitally interested in the constitutional issues and wants the field cleared for general legislation and the normal development of party pol- cies, MAY BE BIG HALT OVER THE BUILDING OF GRAND TRUNK PACIFIC RL.R, The Work Cannot Go Ahead Owing to the Scarcity of Labor--The Orientals Will Not be Allowed In. Vancouver, Sept. 8.--~That the com- pletion of the Grand Trunk Pacific railway, through Northern British Co- lumbia, may be delayed a couple of years, betame very apparent to rail way men here, when it became known that no effort would be made to get under contract this year a large sec- tion between Aldermere and Tate Jaune Cache. The reason for the de lay is the scarcity of labor, and also the deadlock that has arisen between the railway company and the British Columbia government on the Oriental emplovment question. In Victoria last week Mr. McBride is | said to have forestalled any applica tion of the railway company for the introduction of Oriental labor by com ing out with a declarbtion that the agreement for white labor only would be strictly adhered to. Labor is scarce and expensive on the grade east of Rupert, and the contractors are ore dited with now operating at a loss of hundreds of dollars a day. Chicago, Sept. 8.~Before 3,000 mem- bers of the National Federation 'of Post Office Clerks, in convention here, Raymond Robinsorw, a social worker, charged the mail department with be- ing a hotbed of politics and honey: combed with graft and incompetence.

Following his speech the convention passed resolutions to do away with politics and urged civil service pro- motion from elerkships to postmaster- ships, They also asked an ght hows day, ihe pensioning of old clerks and the abolition of Sunday work.
