IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS
Greek Priest Has Documents Valuable to American Government.

Minneapolis Minn, Sept 19.-Father .Anatoly of the Greek Catholic church of this city, last night admitted that ne was in possession of eeclesiast1cal doc7 uments tending to confirm the Amerl- can claims to the rich gold bearing ter rifory in the northwest. which has been in dispute between the United States and Great Britain for years These pa spers consist chiefly of reprints and sur yeys authorized by the Russian govern ment when Alaska was in the ear s domain. Father Anatoly, was sent to Alaska by the Greek church in 1897, and he remained there four years. He made a special study of the country, it's resources and its history, and IL was on account of his position in the church that he was enabled to secure documents that promised to materially aid the American government In prov ing it's Alaskan claims. Among the pa- pers in the possession of Father An atoly is a copy of the Alaskan treaty in the English and Russian language. Accompanying this treaty is an Alas kan priests narrative showing that in 1915 the Russian Trading Go had a dis spute with the Hudson Bay Go of Can ada and destroyed some of the latter's property. The Russian concern then conceded strip of territory about ten miles wide, located in 54 degrees 40 minutes longitude, near the mouth of the Stakine river, for the term of ten years:
 The Hudson Bay Go was to collect rents for this period in this territory, and have exclusive domain. But the tract was never given back and Father Anatoly says it is now usurped by the British authorities.
