Washington, Nov. s.-The authorities
here have been advised that the arrival
tomorrow OF Sir wIlfred Laurier, pre-
mier OF Canada; Sir Louis DayIee. min
istsr Of marine in the Laurier cabinet.
and other officials Of the dominion. Is to
have an important bearing, not only On
the Bering sea settlement, but on an
pending questions which have been the
sources OF International complication be-
tween the United States and Canada.
He will suggest such mutual modinca-
tions Of the present restrictions as In his
opinion may be Of material advantage to
the Thousands Of Americans now in the
Klondike and the British Columbia Min
ing company's country, and which at
the same time will be Of advantags TO
Canada along It's eastern borders.
Among the plans suggested for settle
ment suiting the question is that OF an
indemnity large enough to permit Cana
da to buy out the sealers and retire them
from the business.
The cooperation Of the United states
Is desired in the plans OF the Canadian
authorities to make an easy route to the
Kiondlke. The proposed route is by boas
from Fort wrangsl to sdckeen river,
which is in the territory belonging to the
United States. and up Sticleen via Tes-
lin lake to the Yukon river and theme
to the gold fields. Asalke stickeen river
is on American soil 1t is desired to ov r
come any possible controversy. although
the treaty OF Washington is said to
make the navigation Of the river FIRE 70
Canadians and Americans alike. The
need OF this route. under the patronage
of the dominion, is felt by the Canadian
premier to be imperative in ortsr that
l0Oo0 Australians may come to the Klon-
dixie in the spring A total of 1900 col
onists is expected to head that way.
In tn matter of reciprocity the general
purpose of the negotiations will be to
give the United States the benefit of
the minimum clause OF the present Can
adam claims in exchange for the 20 rer
cent. reduction allowed under the Ding
ley law.
