ALASKAN BOUNDARY SURVEY ; Tho' surveys 'of f' the boundary btween Alaska and British Columbia ha\lng been completed by the international commIssion appoInted for that purpose , the mater Is now , . and the ! one for diplomatic negotiation , claims ot time two parties to the controversy are so radicaly at , variance that ther Is n , prospect that another outbreak of excitement ! will ensue similar to the famous Incident during which the cry of the people of the United States was : "Fifty-four , forty or fight. " England appears to be at , time old game ot trying to secure the strategic points for command ot the sea and of time means of Ingress and egress to Alaska , .whose only means at communicaton with the outside world Is the water. The merit of time controversy - versy and Its vital Importance to the United States and especially to the Pugot' Sound country were clearly stated In an Interview which 0 reporter on thin Seattle Post-Intel- ligoncor had with V. Wison , who bas just returned from a tour of Alaska , and who has thoroughly famIliarized himself wIth the subject. Mr. Wilson said : "The Drltsh game Is to gab whatever ter- , ritory I takes n fancy to. They did not care for Alaska or the boundary very much unt It was known that the banks and bars of the hnndred ot tributaries to the Yukon river contained gold. Just as soon as thIs was known , however , Great Britain started a dispute about the boundary with the United Slates and Is now trying to claim a great deal of territory which she Is net entitled to. "The old grant from Russia to time United Stats said time east bourttiar , was ten , , marine ! leagues from boundary sl where- ever ther Is no definite mountaIn rnnge. Time Uiiled States claims the coast iueans time shores of all bays and Inlets. The British claim Is' that tine ten marino leagues , only run from time ocean shore and that It doa not follow th'e meanderings of the bays and Inlets. I this view Is established I will give them access to , and egress from wi ' ( Ito rich Yukon region , and then they would control most of the trade which ' now comes principally to Seattie. "Vilhiamn Oglvlo , the surVeyor for the Canadian goverminmeimt , last summer crossed Iynn canal at nuser's hay. I this survey imrcvails It whIt give gngland n splendid harbor - bar at the head ot the bay which would be an excellent dltrlbutng point Jar a big sec- lion or the rich Yukon r glon. The result ton of this would be to bring Victoria Into com- petton with Seattle for Ito trade of that section. The reason given b ) Oglvo ! for swltchhg : hU survey at this point Is that tbee Is mme definite range of mountains In that viciniy and that tine pint where ho rnns his line across the cnnal Is ten Jnarlno leagues from th main sbor . "Several years ago Ogivie lade the s ate- mont that the Canadian gverment would give time United States all of the northwest territory west of the Yukon and down to where time forty-firt IIrdlan crOIIU , that " - Erelm , provided the United Stntes" would give Canada the coast country from Port- land canal to the Lynl canal , a distance of 400 or GOO mlcs _ Tithe was before the great rchness : of the Yukon basIn was fully Imown. lIe must have' been' authorized to say this. Since then the British , han changed their views and have set up their absurd claim to the head of the channel In order 10 secure the trade of the mining coun- try and to get In and out of their back coun- try. try."I "I think that there should be no bzckdown In this matter. The country Is our because we bought I of Russia , . pall for I , and we should not allow time liritislm Ihouhl alow Irllsh or any other country to como In and take It away from us. Miions of dollars will be taken out of the Yukon placers In the future , and It would be hdiotlc of us to let the shore line be taken from us. "England Is at her old game of tryIng to secure the ports through which the cmmerce of the \orhl must b9 done , so that all per- eons who do buslnels with or In Alaska must pay tel to British merchants , British ships and Britsh cu tom houses.

FOIL AND AGAINST CAHUSLE'S PLAN "In Inancln circles unusual Interest Is felt In the pending legislation relating to tIme currency question . So tar as respects Sec- rotary Cnm'hishe'it bill , thcl'o Is more or Jess ot a comicurrenee In its I concurrnce Is proposals to retire time legal tender cIrculation ( If done retre conservative way ) , to ChUge [ the basis I bank note Suarantec , to permit Issns of notes to the extent of 75 per cent of capital ! , to make more effective provIsIon for the current redemptons ot notes and to admit the state banIs to th ! privilege of Issuing notes upon safe cimdltion. 'he zmieasurb , ( Qndlton ! although In I crude form , Is regarded as affording time basis for 1 reconstruction of reconslructon our currency system . anti If there ' OUI cnrenc ! were any expectation of the bill being enacted with the nccessary needed mnterlal nmondments It would be welcomed aa an aId toward the restoration of business Bunt the bill con- tnlns certain Ilrovlslons and lack others which , It Is thought , wilt defeat its cnnct- uncut or , If It beomes 1 law , would vu.stl ) ' counleract its possible good I'esults. Among the clauses deemed objectionable Is the re quirement thnt the banks oC Issue shnl deposit - posit legal tender nt the treasury to the amount of 30 per cent of their circulation . circulaton. which would largely restrict the net earn- lags from thC notes and so far lessen the Inducement for the banks to avail them- selves ot their privilege of Issuing , besides which It might keel ' a very Inrge amount of legal tender In exIstence after the remainder - der had been retired-an Incident which would be Inconsistent with tim secretary's puose to extinguish , nil time legal tender nots. To those familiar with the principles and operations of banking the safety fund clause of the bill , requiring I deposit of lawful mommy amounting to 6 pr cent of the outstanding clrlculaUat Is regarded as highly objectionable on the groum that I Involve 1 mutual guarantee us bqtween all banks , In opposition to nil sound prlncl- Ille of banking , besIdes which this fund would be wholly superfluous regarded 1' a sour ot guarantee. With respect t the pro \ repealing the reserve laws of the national banks , although not n little may be said In its favor , yet strictly conservative financiers arc dispsed to regard It ns nn unsafe innovation. - STATE BANKS FAVORED. "Outside the national banking Interest the proposal to permit the state banks to Issue note must be modified to provide strong 6ateguards to meet with al'roval , the terms ot Issue must necessarily be the same In the case of both the national and state In- stttons , but time secretary's bill makes marked discrIminations In favor of the state hnnks , which Is universally viewed a unjust and invidious. The great and universal objection - jection . however , Is that Mr Carlisle fails to make any udequnte provision for carryIng - Ing out time main feature of his planl the re- timement ot mnn $ O.OO of legal tender notes. He asks for authority to use for that purpose any money In the treasury not otherwise appropriated , but does not men- tlon authorization to borrow money for thesis vast liquIdations.
