STRONG POINT FOR U. s.
Interesting Fact Established In the
 Alaskan Boundary Dispute.

Washington, May 5.-The strongest point in the Ameriopn case in the Alaskan boundary dispute, which was recently de- livered to the British ambassador, is the communication of the Russian ambassa- dor to the British king, when he delivered the exchange of the re-affirmations of the Russo-Anglo treaty in 1925.
 It is part of the record of the Ameri- can case that the ambassador was in- structed by the Russian government to inform the king that the interpreta- tion which the Russians placed upon the treaty, was that the clause relating to the marine leagues meant that the dis tance from the sea should not be less than ten marine leagues. It Is shown by a re- port of the ambassador that he delivered this instruction to the king and that the contention of Russia at that time was not disputed until ten years ago.
 The fact that there was no contention cover the boundary and that the interpre- tation of Russia was communicated to the British government. is believed by the American consul to make a strong legal point in favor of the American claims.
