The commissioners dined with the gold
smiths' company this evening.
The refusal of Messrs. Aylesworth and
Jette to coincide in Lord Alverstone s
view was only known to a few persons
here tonight, but at the foreign office
and in high government circles it has
created a painful impression. There is
no hope expressed that the Canadian

Apparent Conflict Explained.
Washington. October 19.—An apparent
conflict In the information from London
and the announcement made by a state
department official regaiding
the agreement reached fj the Alaskan
boundary commissioners is explained
here by the statement that the London
advices touching the victory of the
American case on all point- except as
to the Portland canal, are perfectly cor

Since the purchase of Alaska from I
F.ussia in 1867 by tho United States there !
was no question ra 'd about where any ;
part of ''be bourjdar. Dfl between oqr
frigid possession and the equally for- j
bidding waste of winter climate claimed
in general terms by Canada.
When, however, some adverturous .
American miners, taking hint from tho i
tales of the Chinooks, ventured up rhe
Yukon ami Into the Klondike and found
gold—big gold and lots of gold a bump
tious Canadian military commander, full
of the auriferous appetite ct tiie Briton, ;
set up the English ensign along Fr.es j
that included all the region suspected
of holding these gold deposits.
The Americans resisted the Canadian
hog-it-all policy and Insisted on setting ;
up the Stars and Strip ■ over their
squatter settlements and daring any
Britisher to lay hands upon the hal- '
yards.
For a time there was blood on the moon
in those parts and at almost any time
a foolish act by a hot-headed official
would have started a blaze of war, in
volving the United States not .alone with
Canada, but wit!-. England as her mother
defender.
Tiie authorities on ritlv . side were cool
enough to common: a truce and estab
lish a modus vlvendl between the people
In the affected region until tho boundary
line could be officially determined.
Old treaties- and maps were fished out
of the archives of Canada, Great Britain,
Russia and the United States, with the
result that Canada, bellevci she had :t
case on h r contention and wo worn ab
solutely «::re that the line we claimed
which, in p-.-rhaps a f---.v years, would be
V’-ry popul'.i'.is country.
Some minor matters affecting tho. varl
oils departments Were considered by the ,
e.ibinel. but no announeemeut waa made '
. ineerning action upon any of tn. '
Some • >nsidera.tion was given, it is un

Canada Jabbinsf Great Britain.
Montreal. October 23.—At a banquet
tendered in his honor by the military m n 1
of Montreal Sir Frederick Borden, minis
ter of militia, has made the following
statement regarding Canada’s contribiit- i
ing to the defense of the empire:
"We owe a duty to Great Britain and i
we hive been discharging that duty In
tiie past by being prepared to take earn of
our own territory. J insist o;t this aad I
have no hesitancy in saying it. that it l
lhe people of .this country should sei tit ■
to expend money for military purposes or
for purposes of defense, they shall li.iv.-
control of that money themselv's and
shall not hind t I - money over to an.- '
brxlj, whet’-.er it lie tho London war oliiee
or the first lord of tin admiralty, to
spend fir them That is the principle
which I lay down as a CantUian ami t
bell’v<> it a sound principle. If wo are j
.1 bl<-- to dofitnd our own cotmtry wo will
contribute better Ilian in any other way I
to t’m safety, maintenance and integrity
of the empire."
Under tin present system Canada’s
military fat . . - ::;e ttmler i’-. ■ 'vninr: :.d of
a British o fleer This statement is re
eardffl as most significant in view of t' ■'
Alaskan bo’.mdar.Y decision. Sir Frederic];
also said that the government would .
establish a training d -pot for 200 rmn in i
Montreal next year.
Boundary Decision Discussed. :
Ottawa, Ontario, »'-tuber 23. In tbe I
house of commons today Mr. Bourns.l
made a speech on the Alaska boundary |
wns the one that snoiosej what wo
bought from Russia
Sovaral attempts by oommtsslons have
been made to settle the question, but
without avail until now. The settlement
reached In London, even if It does not
give us all we asked, Is bo nearly all
that rather than contend further we can
offiT’l to generously accept It and have
peace.
