EnsIand's Arrogant boundary Claim Stirs
the Res dents TO Action.
SEATTLE, Wn., Oct 24-The agitation
of the Alaska boundary question has
been taken up bodily by the American
residents of Juneau and move is now
being made to form boundary club at
that place to keep the people and the
government fully alive to the danger of
losing valuable Yukon mines. As already
indicated the war cry ten marine
leagues, or fight" is being sounded
The situation is given by g. B. Swine
heart, editor of the Alaska Mining Re-
cord, at Juneau who is now in this city.
"If England can get entrance to the
Yukon country" he said "she will be
satisfied and she hopes to accomplish
that object by securing Dyea inlet as a
port of entry. She will also try to obtain
Annette island but will waive that and all
other considerations in order to control
the rich mines of the north. She would
undoubtedly relinquish all claim to the
rest of the territory to gain her end and
if she succeeds we might as we'll give up
any claim on Alaska"

The Dispatch recalled the story TO Mr..
Marston today. and in reply he exhibited
a statement from Miss Lewis, who tells
an entirely different story.
