ALASKAN BOUNDARY DISPUTE.
ALL RAILWAY CONSTRUCTION is
STOPPED. PENDING SETTLEMENT.
Sir Wiifrcd Lnuricr Declares that
the Buiidins Of the Roads Would

Ottawa, Ont, June 12-Promoters OF
half dozen Yukon railway schemes now
before parliament are grevously disap-
pointed at the announcement of the Cow
ernments policy to stop he construction
Of railways to the gold Yields pending a
settlement Of the Alaska boundary dispute.
Sir Wlfred Laurior today stated his po-
sition more fully than he had done in the
past lie said:
"While do not object 20 any scheme
to build a railway from waters that are
without doubt in Canadian territory to
the Yukon country az he present time
most Of the charters asked for are to build
railway along the Canadian trails-that
is to say from Pyramid harbor toward
Dawson At the present time Pyramid har-
Dor is in the disputed territory. We claim
the ownership Of 1t and they have AZ pres
ent practically possession of II as lhey

they would have TO he supplemented b.
American legislation and so we should DC
/ provided with railway communication from
I a harbor that is now in possession prac-
ticalIy Of the Americans toward Dawson.
/ If we were 10 grant that. we would only
be cnmplicatfng the question NJ determln-
ing the boundary between us and the
Americans II we were to grant the char
ter under which, as I understand, S250.u1o
Is already deposited. we would build up
an American city at Pyramid harhor and
make it all the more difficult 10 get back
what we claim belongs to us--that is "a
say establish rhe hounf whore It ought
to be.
"At the present time tho question be
tween us and the authorities is as To the
location Of the boundaries on the Lynn
canal We claim that the boundary Is
the entrance to the Lynn canal and ma
consequently the whole Of the Lynn cana
belongs to US The Americans claim or
he other hand that the boundary passes
around the Lynn canal. and that they
should be confirmed In the possession o.
Skagway. which they now hold in Dye'
and Pyramid harbor"

the close was lower than last nights

! ing sales We're made on a large scale
operators taking advantage of heavy
commission house demand to realize
profits made on the recent rise. The
outside buying and the realizing SEEM
ed about equally balanced for time,
but the weight of the selling proved too
much for the market to carry and the
prices of railroads gave way. Profess
slonal operators attacked values vigor-
ousy in the afternoon, wiping out prac-
tically all the gains in the specialties
and carrying the railroads generally a
sharp fraction below last night. There
are some isolated stocks which main
tanned their strength throughout the
day, notably the Chicago Great West
ern issues, Colorado and Southern and
Chicago and Eastern Illinois, which rose
from fraction to 3ss. The strong June
statements by Atchison and Union Pa
ciflc were without marked effect.
Rates for call money to-day were
marked up to Az per cent in the after
noon Cheap money does not appear
nearer than it did month ago, as Lon
don and the continent are evidently
counting on borrowing the credits to
be established by the coming export
movement. The calling home of these
credits would it seems probable, result
in sales of securities rather than to part
with gold, which the Bank of England
is still buying in the open market and
importing from Germany.
London bought quite freely of stocks

ued in large supply There has also

other cities have been large lenders in
New York ana have drawn on their de-
posits in New York banks for the pur-
pose. This operation reduces the posi-
bilities of future strain-on New York
banks through interior demand to move
the crops. But for the moment it makes
increased demands upon them and does
not offer much relief to the local money
situation.
