All Contentious of United
States in BoundaryDisPute
Are Sustained

LONDON, Oct. 1S.-The Alaskan
Boundary Commission last night
reached an agreement whereby all
the American contei ions are sus-
taired with the exception of those in
relation to the Portland canal, which
Canada wins. All that now remains
TO be done is for the commissions to
afix their signatures to the decision
and complete the may which will ac-
company it. On thhe map will b.
marked the boundary line definitely
fixing the division of American and
British territory on such a basis that
no American citizen will lose a foot
of land he already believed he held.
while the United States will get all
the waterways to the rich Alaskan
territory, with the exception of the
Portland canal which gives Canada
the one outlet she so much needed.
The long standing dispute was only
seTued after a week of keen, trying,
secret d%eliberation between the arbi-
traitors. Even up to 400 today there
was as acute possibility that a dis
agreement might result and the whole
proceedings fall to the ground. Lord
Alverstone, though openly inclined to
believe in the justice of the American
argument, that the United States vas
entitled to heads of inlets as con-
tanned in question five, held out that
Canada had ea-ablised ner case
questions two and three, dealing with
the Portland canal.
After lunch Senator Lodge, Secre-
tary Root and Senator Turner agreed
to concede these points and to start
the American boundary line from the
head Of the Portland canal thus Civ
Ing the Canadians the channel anG
some small islands on which there
are only a few disused s~torehouses.
This accomplished the majority Of the
tribunal agreed to fix, with this ex-
CCptIon, the entire boundary as out
lined in the American case. Whether
Messrs. Aylesworth and Jette, tn
Canadian commissioners, will refust
to sign the decision and make it unan-
inIcus, is not known, but it will not
affect the validity of the agreement
Il a minority report is submitted. By
this afternoon it was hoped that ev-
cry thing will be ready for sigma
lures though the actual marking OF
the line on the map which forever
determines the respective territories
will occupy some time.
The majority Of the commissioners
left the foreign Office hurriedly this
afternoon in order to catch trains to
the country. Nothing had occurred
which led the few onlookers even to
suspect that the dispute had reached
its practisal end. The commissioners
themselves are still bound to secrecy
until tile decision is actually rendered
and practically few others were really
aware how great a degree of success
had attained the efforts of the Amer
lean members of the tribunal.
