ANNOUNCEMENT is UNTRUE.
Alaskan Boundary Commission Has Thus
Far Taken No Vote.

London, Oct. 10. = The Associated
Press has the highest authority for
saying that the announcement made
by the London Morning Advertiser.
that the decision of the Alaskan bound
airy commission virtually conceded the
American case is entirely untrac. The
commission, thus far, has reached no
decision and no vote has been taken
even in the private sessions which
would indicate Chief Justice Aver
stones position. 1t is quite true that
the general trend of opinion among
those connected with the tribunal,
aside from the commissioners, is that
the ultimate decision will be in favor
America. But there is as yet not the
slightest warrant for saying it has
been reached.

cisiOn in the Alaskan boundary arbi-
