coed to Victoria. where they will meet

United States coast and geodetic survey

Mr.. Tittmann said yesterday thai 1t
would require probably two months to
complete the survey. The line will be
marked with the usual monuments, stakes

location of the line.
I'VE are simply to ascertain the loca,
ton and mark out for the guidance OF al!
persons the line established by the moous
vivendi between England and the United
States,f said Mr.. Tittmann YESTERDAY
This line was agreed to in october. 1879.
after several months of negouation; II
is by no means a permanent or establish
ed boundary line beyond the terms and
life of the modus vivendi-
"Our work will be necessarily tech
meal. and not diplomatic, although we
are operating under the direction in this
instance of the department of state at
Washington. The distance to be surveyed
is about twenty-five miles"
Mr.. Tittmann expects to begin active
work in the field about June 10. He and
Mr.. French will meet the Canadian COM
missioners at Victoria. They are w. F.:
King and j. L. Macarthur. A party of
about twelve men will be taken along to
assist in the field work. The expenses
of the survey are to be shared equally
by the two countries.
The Alaska boundary dispute is a mat
ter of long standing. During the nego-
tiations between the diplomatic authorities
of the two countries much interest was
exhibited here and throughout the North
west in the rumor that the United States
might cede a port on Lynn canal to Ca
NADIA. The line as temporarily establish
ed leaves the entire shore line of Lynn
canal in American territory.
During the continuation of the modus
vivendi the line which Mr.. and
his associate commissioners will lay down
will be respected by citizens of both coun-
tries.

hdent of making a good record. Everett,
Port Gamble, Port Townsend and Wilken-

The addition of Fowler, Johnson, Wood
