In connection with our relations with

and urges such action as shall deff-

ing:
IN this relation I may refer again to the
need Of definitely marking the Alaskan

that end has been before the senate for
sofle two years. but as no action has been
aiken I contemplate negotiating new con-
vention for a joint determination OF the
meridian by teiegrzphle observations.
These, II Is believed. will give more ac-
curate and urquestionable results than the
sldereal methods heretofore Independently
followed. which. as Is known. proved dis
