It is a regrettable circumstance.

journals should at the present time emphatically denounce the Joint Con- fkence as a failure,and predict that its ittings will never be resumed. There 'U do doubt that upon one question- ihe Alaskan boundary, the ielegates were unable to agree, and probably their differences were irreconcileable. Yet from the factsdisclosed it appears that, even upon this matter, they came very near to an agreement that the matter should be submitted to ar- bitration. It was a distinct gain to obtain from the representatives of the United States the admission that the boundary might form a subject of ar- bitration, and this admission will

macy in settling the question here-

after.

gard to the boundary question there V; was a final disagreement, there were ‘ at least some of the dlficulties remov- ed from the way to a settlement. As to the other questions which came be- fore the Conference we have much more favorable reports, clearly in- dicating that had the delegates been able to come to one .mind on the boundary matter they would have framed a treaty that would have covered nearly, if not quite all the questions submitted to them. In re- gard tothe trade question, however, probably not more than a limited measure of reciprocity could have been reached. _ It was not a bad thing but a good thing that representatives of the two nations thus met in friendly y con- ference with a mutual desire to settle their long-standing differences. We believe that the best men in the United States and Canada earnestly desire that these troublesome matters should be got out of the way. And how could this more probably be efected than by just such a Confer-‘ ence as that which was organized last summer?

Nor was it surprising that the

delegates should not 'speedily come to an agreement on all the questions be- fore them . At the outset their points of view were wide apart. There were icoitllictiug interests to be reconciled, -old irritations and national rivalries 'and jealousies in the way. There wus, unfortunately a section of people in both countries who did not desire ‘that settlement should be reached.

We believe that there were good and

uiuhicient reasons why the Conference -adjourned at the time it did without _wamnming that the disagreement was inal. We hope and expect that the ”Conferenca will meet again next summer; that another British _Com- missioner may,in the meantime be appointed to take the place of the lamented Lord Herschell, and that the chances of an amicable settlement of many of the pending questions are far from hopeless. Pending the completion of their work the mouths of the delegates are to a large extent sealed, and it is at this stage impru- dent as well as unfair to declare the Conference a failure.

It is stated in a Winnipeg despatch

that the chief of police there, after making full enquiry into the circum- stances connected with the tragic death of Mr. Jameson, M. l:‘.,believes the shooting was purely accidental. The first reports gave an impression of probable suicide, -though without any known or probable cause for such action.

The federal seat in Levis made va-

eant by the death of Dr. Guay has been carried in three successive elec- tions by the Liberals with majorities ranging from 281 to 394. There is also a. vacancy in Winnipeg caused by the supposed suicide of Mr. Jamie- son wlio was elected inflS97 by a. rua-l jority of 1,100. But at the general election of 1890 Hen( Hugh John Macdonald was elected there by 509. It is expected that by-elections will be held for both these seats early in the coming session so as to pei mit of the newly elected members sitting during the proceedings.
