BOUNDARY LINE
NO PROTESTS FROM MINERS RECEIVED
IN WASHINGTON
THE STATE DEPARTMENT SAYS NO AMER
ICAN RIGHTS ARE IMPERILLED BY
THE MoDUs vIvENDL

Washington. July 31.-None Of the protests
ported TO have been made in Alaska against the
definition Of the provisional boundary line have
reached Washington. and the impression pre-
walls in the State Department that the agitation
OF the subject is based on a lack of knowledge
of the exact nature Of the agreement between
the United States and Great Britain by which
a most difficult and dangerous subject was re-
moved from the current negotiations between
the two countries 1t is pointed out by the
State Department officials that this provisional
boundary line the running of which is said 20
have excited the American miners in the Porcu-
pine region, is not in any sense binding on
either party TO the modus vivendi, except as
purely temporary scheme, designed to prevent
conflicts between the miners and the police
forces through lack of knowledge as to their
fully disclosed by the inclusion in the modus
vivendi of a provision in these terms:
It is understood as formally set forth in COM
munications of the Department of State Of the
United States that the citizens OF subjects OF
either Power found by this arrangement with
in the temporary jurisdiction of the other shall
suffer no dminution Of the rights and privileges
which they now enjoy.
Every American miner whose claim lies on
the wrong side Of the boundary line now being
drawn is. according to the official view here
holding his claim by quite sound a tenure as
he enjoyed before the provisional treaty was
made. He has neither lost nor gained in
strength of title by this arrangement, so he GER
tainly has no cause for complaint, as he would
have were the boundary line now being drawn
a permanent one.
The officials here however, are fully prepared
to defend the temporary boundary, pointing out
that so far from having ceded to Great Britain
an inch of territory Great Britain temporarily
yielded to the United States fully nineteen
twentieths of the territory in dispute and suf-
fered her shipping to be kept ten miles from the

NO FEAR NOW OF A FAMINE.
ALDERMEN PASS THE APPROPRIATION

Deputy Water Commissioner Moffett much
elated last night when he learned that the Board
of Aldermen had passed the 100000 appropriation
for the construction Of the forty-eight inch iron
pipe line from Mburn Spring Creek, Long ISL

will not promptly approve of the appropriation
No time will be lost in the Instruction OF this

is said. will entirely do away with the possibility
Of a water famine
It is admitted by the Department that il has FIVE

the fact that the present conduit is too small 70

The recent rains relieving the stringency con-
siderably On Monday the water fall, although less
than inch resulted in checking the constant de-
crease in storage. AS matter Of fact, there were
about 10000 gallons in the reservoirs yester-
day than last Friday. The Water Department,
is still carrying its policy of decreas-
ing the consumption. and has cut the water on
entirely from eleven public schools This has re-
suited in great hardship in two instances. Public
School No. a. at Navy and Concord SITS, and NO:

for the school classes. Superintendent
Ward of the Brooklyn schools has appealed to
Dr. Black, Of the Health Department, TO have the
water restored TO these schools. If the appeal is
unheeded the summer school work will have be
abandoned. There about 1000 pupils in both
