ALASKA BOUNDARY
NOW ALL LOCATED,

Washington, April l3.-It has just
been in progress for some months for
the settlement Of that part OF the Alas
ka boundary which WAS not accurately
determined by the London tribunal in
the late fall of 1908. With this infor-
nation comes the announcement that
the course of the whole boundary has
been definitely located and agreed to
by the governments of Great Britain
and the United States.
On account of an omission in the in
ternational provisional survey of 1895,
the charts prepared under that survey
failed to give any data for stretch Of
territory toward the southern end Of
the boundary, covering a distance Of
more than one hundred miles, between
the mountain peaks known as Kate $
Needle and Devils thumb.
Accept commissioners Report.
In due course, under the London
award, commissioners on the part of
the United States and Great Britain
were selected to locate the whole Alas
ka boundary line, and to erect visible
monuments. The important fact which
has only just become known is that
these commissioners were subsequently
charged, by agreement between the
two nations, with the duty of locating
the boundary between Hates Needle
and DEVILS Thumb. According to
this agreement the findings of the com
missioners were to be subject to accept
ance by the two governments.
1t now appears that the commission
ers recently made their report, and
that an exchange of notes between the
United States and Great Britain has
effected the acceptance of the terms of
this report by both governments. By
the terms Of this agreement the Unit
ed States gains less than Canada gains,
but the findings of fact have turned
out just about as was expected by our
high joint commissioners at London.
Moreover, the territory in question is
valuelt ss, for it is almost inaccessi BILE.
The whole region is mountainous and
broken. and nearly all Of it is covered

kate'S Needle and DevirS Thumb.
Kate's Needle is a peak about seven
ty-fve miles due south from Skagway,
and DEVILS Thumb is more than a
hundred miles southerly from Hates
Needle. By the agreement now reached
between the two governments, it is
provided that the line shall follow
mountain peaks between the two OBJ.

peaks, the com missioners shall select
none that is more than $500 meters
from straight line joining the OBJ.
jective points. 1t is deemed best to
select mountains for the intermediate
marks, since the country is hard to
travel over and the erection of visible
artificial monuments is almost an i'm
possibility, and would serve no good
purpose.

Camp Lincoln. July 25.-(speciaI
correspondence. Last night was
rockies night in camp. They all had
to run the gauntlet. when others
would use their canteen straps with
great effect. McManus. while running
through was hit with buckle and sep
arated from part of his uniform. At
ter taps when the rockies had drowned
their pains in slumber they would
awake suddenly to find themselves
making flying trip into the company
street, with their bed ticks. Davis
was disturbed not less than four times
during the night. Ehrhorn was jerked
out and when told about it this morn
ing he wanted to bet his dress uniform
that he had not been moved Private
Chase, expecting something. had
strapped himself and bed tick TO the
tent pole He asked to get off this af-
ternoon to buy long chain, finding the
strap too weak.
Chasing Negroes.
Every negro that came across the
guard line today was chased by the
whole regiment. and some were Sc
verely strapped. The Sixth will not
have any negroes around the camp if
1t is possible to keep them out.
The third battalion, of which COM
pany A is a member, is to spend all
day down on the rife range This is
looked forward to by all of the mem
bers, because it will be the first
chance of the rockies to use a regu-
lar army rife. Chaplain Ferris was on
the range Monday and carried away
the hOnors in hitting the bulls eye. In
shooting from the 200yard mark he
made 40 points out of a possible so.
Lieut. Col. ChannOn also proved TO be
there with the gun. He had a score of
IL points.

Burlington. While Delano was with
the Burlington he and Rice were close

than his present position with the C.,

steel Ties.
Word comes from Pittsburg that the
Pittsburg, Besemer & Lake Erie rail-
way has placed an order with the Car
negie Steel company for steel ties for
10 miles of track, as an experiment 1t
is proposed to lay these ties $500 to
the mile. instead of 2,4OO, as with many
of the steel ties. The tie to be used
weighs 1914 pounds. and sells for
about $235 each. This makes the
cost nearly three times that of the or
binary wooden tie. but it is expected
that the difference will be made up in
the cheaper maintenance and greater
durability.
