BEING SECURED
IN WILDERNESS
For a Distance of 600 Miles in
Far North between This
Country and Canada.
nv AnnoclArrn pnrnn,


SITKA, Alaska, May 6.-Scarring
broad line across 500 miles of wilder
ness in the far North, in order that
the possessions OF the United States
and Canada may have distinct sep
aration at every point, will be COM
pleted during the coming open season,
The work has been in progress since
1907 under the direction OF Thomas
Riggs, Jr., civil engineer, representing
the United States Alaskan Boundary
Commission, and T. D. Craig, repre-
senting a similar commission of Can
ada.
Although the United States and
Canada have been neighbors in the
far North for over half century, the
exact dividing line between their pos
sessions, especially, as to the north
ern portion, was, previous to this sur
vey, indefinite and conflicting. Many
disputes arising, the two governments
decided, finally, through their com
missions, that an absolute survey
CLEARLY established and marked for
all time, should be made along the
one hundred and forty-first meridian,
from the Mt. st. Elias Alps, on the
Pacific, to the Arctic ocean, a distance
| of approximately 900 miles.
Hardy Men.
| The United States surveying party
consisted OF from sixty to eighty men
leach season since the work was under
taken. Chief Engineer Riggs, himself
a young college man, selected his aids
| from the hardest classes-cowboys
forest rangers, prospectors, timber
cruisers and frontiersmen, with a
liberal sprinkling of engineers. New
expeditions were organized each
spring, although many of the men
who started at the beginning have re-
NAMED in the service up to the pres
ent time. 1t was the custom, too, to
leave few men in the North each
winter to care for equipment and sup
plies.
The actual visible result OF the six or
seven years of efforts, is twenty
foot vista cut, like gigantic avenue,
or lane, through all timber and brush
districts, together with monuments
set at intervisible points, from three
to four miles apart
The monuments erected are OF two
types, depending upon the Importance
of the locality At prominent stream
crossings and main points of travel
the line-marker consists of five-foot
aluminum- bronze shaft, weighing 300
pounds, set in 1000 pounds OF con-
crete. At less important points the
monument is smaller, being designated
as cone, cast of same metal, and
requiring only 1900 pounds of con-
crete for the base. There are ap-
proXimately 200 OF these monuments
along the 600 miles of boundary. The
work OF conveying the heavy materials
for their construction. mostly on pack
animals, sometimes on the shoulders
OF the men themselves. was very slow
and laborious.
Straightest Of the World.
This survey is declared by engi-
neers to be the straightest of the world
for the length encompassed In speak.
ing OF it, one of the engineers said:
"The start was made from one of
the desolate peaks of the Mt. st.
Elias Alps, on the southern extremity.
There We laid our course straight
for the Northern Lights and thereafter
swerved not so much es hair
breadth-peaks, gulches, bottomless

the Arctic Circle. Following the rough
scaling Of the southern portion OF the
survey, the joint expeditions estab-
lished their base at Rampant House,
an ancient Hudson Bay station, on
the Porcupine, from whence several
dashes were made before the Arctic
ocean was finally reached.
Amazed Mt Horses.
When the steamers landed the to-
pographers and their Equipment at
Rampant House, the native Indians
were amazed at the drove Of what
they first took to be huge dogs, but
later decided must be variety of
homeless caribou. Inquiry developed
the fact that they. had never before
seen nor heard OF the horse.
Almost at the water-line Of the
Arctic Ocean one of the larger OF the
monuments stands today, marking the
international division. The final lap
required to place 1t there was over a
region fairly bristling with natural
difficulties. although only about 100

mountains, the Davidson ard British
ranges, thence down the long slope

mails raided the caches and menaced
the surveyors; ravenous mosquitoes
settled upon them in hordes, day and
night; phantom lakes, mountains and
cities lured and confused them, and

the Arctics, twenty-folr hours each
day.
The fartherest north monument was
placed in October, two years ago.
Since then thesline has been trayersed
several times for the purpose of clos
ing up the different divisions, and the
work is not yet 81 mplete. Each year
large force of men will ge employed,
during the open season, to brush out
the avenue and keep the monuments
in repair.

gagged to haul their supplies, all
knowledge Of their coming is dis
claimed at the Japanese embassy.

GERMANS ARE PREPARING
TOATTACK ONCE MORE
Belgian Senator Expects Them tc
Make Supreme Assault South
east of Ypres.

LONDON, November "a Belgian
socialist senator. who returned yester-
day from an official visit to King AL
bert. said that the allies were now
within ten miles of Ostend, but he did
not believe that the Germans were pre-
pairing for a general retreat through
Belgium. but rather for a final supreme
assault. which would be made at a
point southeast of Ypres
The senator estimates that the Ger
mans have 100000 men in the vicinity
mentioned, but he said that 1t was the
general impression of the allied STATS
that the German effort would be a
failure. because their troops not only
were very weary. but to great extent
were made up of youthful and aged
recruits.
When the German march down the
coast began. the senator declared,
scarcely any one on the ground ex-
pected that they would be kept out Of
Calais Now opinion was completely
changed and freely expressed that the
Germans never would reach their OBJ
jective.
