MoDUS VIvENDI.
Great Britain Formally Agrees to Tenn
porary Alaskan Agreement.

Great Britain Formally Agrees to Tenn
porary Alaskan Agreement.
Washington, Oct. 2O.-Mr. Tower, the
British charge here, called at the state
department today and handed to Secrer
tary Hay note formally accepting for
his government the proposition for the
temporary adjustment of the Alaskan
boundary line prepared by Secretary
Hay in his note of yesterday. With
that act the long expected modus vi
vendi relative to the vexed boundary
question went into effect This result
has been brought through the direct
negotiation of Secretary Hay and Mr..
Tower, after several failures in the
past, through commissioners and am
bassadors. The state department is
confident that it has conserved every
American interest in the arrangement,
without unjustly treating Canada.
The divisional line on the West pass,
by which the Dalton trail is reached, is
placed 2212 miles above Pyramid har-
Dor, which is regarded under the treaty
as tide-Water mark, so the Canadians
are not allowed to reach any point on
the Lynn canal. Moreover, there is no
permission given for free port or even
for the free transfer across American
territory of Canadian goods, except of
miners belongings. These matters may
figure later on, when it comes to a per-
manent boundary line.
The modus vivendi follows the prece-
dent established by Secretary Evarts in
1873, IN agreeing upon a temporary
boundary on the Stikine river in Alaska
by an exchange of notes. The line on
the Chilkat river is 22A statute miles
from the head Of navigation on Chilkat
inlet of Lynn canal, and on the Kleihni
river II statute miles further inland.
and the whole valley Of the Porcupine
creek is included within the American
line. On White and Chilkat passes the
line is fixed at the summit or water
shed' nelng the points which have for
some time past been observed nv tha
customs authorities for the two conn
tries.
