Washington. March 4.-Secretary
Hay and Sir Michael Herbert yesterday
exchanged notifications of the Alaskan
boundary treaty. The preparation OF
the cases of the two sides will proceed
with all speed, as under the treaty,
they must be submitted to the arbi-
traitors within sixty days.
1t will require the greatest effort on
the part of the United States govern
ment to have it's case ready within the
appointed time. The United States
government has come in< possession
in recent years of a vast amount of
data touching this controversy, which.
to be of use. must be thoroughly stud
led. Secretary Hay has placed this
work on the shoulders of Ex-S Secretary
John w. Foster. who is assisted by
Mr.. Lansing, who became familiar with
Alaskan matters thru his connection
with the Behring sea arbitration.
Now that the notifications have been
exchanged, it is understood that the
personnel of the American commiss-
toner's will be finally announced. 1t
is already known unoff1cially that they
will be Secretary Root, Senator Lodge
and Senator Turner.
