Washington, Oct 19.-An apparent
conflict in the information from Lon
don and the announcement made by
state department official Saturday re-
speeding the agreement reached by the
Alaskan boundary commissioners IS
explained here by the statement that
the London advices touching the vic
tory of the American case on all points
except as to the Portland canal are
perfectly correct, but that the commits
siOn's decision was not technically
final because Of its omission to locate
the mountain range" which was re-
ferred to in the original Russian treaty
OF cession as a conditional limit to the
American claim. 1t is said, however.
at the state department that this IS
not. after all, material. in view of the
commissions decision that every inch
OF the shore line north of the Portland
canal is American territory. for wheth-
er the strip be only q mile wide or
ten miles or forty, the Canadians car
not reach the sea without crossing
American territory
It is stated that in I'll probability
period Of one year will be required 20
complete the work OF illumination on
the boundary line provided in the
treaty. The commissioners could only
lay down general principles for the
fxation of the line, but they could not,

Feature Of the international Trust
Company Failure.
INCORPORATED IN DELAWARE
LOCAL STOCKHOLDERS WANT
THE RECEIVER.

Dover, Del, oct. 19.-The insolvency
Of the International Bank & Trust
Company Of America, at the City Of
Mexico. which is a corporation of the
state OF Delaware and which was re-
Gently given authority TO increase its
capital stock to 1900, 600, caused to-
night one Of the most remarkable
oashes for a receivership ever known
here. A number of those interested in
the big company who are opposed TO
the receivership obtained in Mexico,
which closed all the company's Mex
lean banks and also opposed the selec-
ton of Don JacintO Patteres, a lawyer,
as receiver, gathered here tonight with
the object of obtaining the judgment
Of the highest court In the state which
created the company.
Those present were: Charles L.
Phillips, vice president of the COM
pany; Joseph c.. Dean Of New York, q
director; James L. WoIcott, a lawyer.
Of Dover, another director; fOrmcr
Governor William T. Watson also q
director; Henry Ridgeley. counsel for
Herbert Compton. a stakeholder, and
William L. GoOding, special counsel
for the company.
An application to Chancellor Mich
olson was hurriedIy drawn up praying
him to appoint a receiver who could
go Into Mexico and elsewhere and
take charge Of the company's assets.
Later the party hurried aboard a
Delaware railroad train for Lewes and
there continued their search for Chan
cellOr Nicholson by boat, the chancel-
Tor having gone out on a trip from the
Delaware Breakwater on the pilot boat
Philadelphia.
The members Of the party expect to
Overtake the chancellor, and express
the belief that they viii get a receiver
ship tonight. They claim that because
this is a corporation Of the state Of
Delaware the action of the chancellor
will take precedence. Herbert Comp
ton, n stockholder. directly makes the
application to Chancellor Nicholson Oh
the ground of insolvency.
