The contention of the United States regarding the Portland canal was the weakest part of the Amer- ican case and the strongest point in the Canadian contention. It is but a minor detail of the controversy. The Canadi- ans contended that the Portland canal ran to the north of two small islands; the American contention was that the channel ran alongside of these islands. On this point there was ground for argu- ment. Pearse Island and the other small island are both of little or no importance and their acquisition gives Canada prac- tically no additional advantage. The de- cision of the Alaska bouhdary comimission will be a complete victory for the United States.” 2 State Department officlals naturally are profoundly gratified that an agreement has been reached favorable to the Ameri- can contention. As was pointed out to- night by a high official, the decision is a “complete justification of our claims, an evidence of the skill with which the American case has been presented and a tribute|to the fairness and broadminded- ness of the British member of the com- mission, Lord Chiet Justice Alverstong.” The effect of the decislon, it {s said here, is to leave the Alaskan boundary practic- ally where it is now. The main point of the Canadian contention involved the out- let from the Klondike gold field at the head of Lynn canal, including the ports of Skagway and Dyea, tbrough which the Klondike business is transacted. These ports remain American territory. The decision is taken to concede the American claim to a strip of territory ten leagues in width from tidewater and extending from the head of Portland canal to the 14lst meridian of west longi- tude. The Americans laid especlal stress upon their contention that this strip should be measured from the heads of es- tuaries or bays, while the Canadians ar- gued that the measurements should be from the main water of the ocean. control of the sites of Skagway and Dyea was involved in the controversy. e e CALLS BRITONS DEGENERATES. Sensational Speech in the Canadian House of Commons. OTTAWA, Ont., Oct. 17.—The Canadian Government has not vet recelved official notice of the decision in the boundary case. If the decision is as re- ported, namely, that Portland canal is to remain in Canadian territ feeling’ in offictal circles that the Dominion has not much to be thankful for. ada, in holding the Pertland canal, re- tains Prince of Wales and Pearse islands, which overlook Port Simpson, the pro- posed terminus of the Grand Trunk Pa- cifle. It would be inconvenient to have lost these islands, but as clearly marked on Vancouver's map as being in Canada it is difficult to see how this could have been done. As the Gov- ernment has no official information, none of the Ministers will speak on the subject for publication. North of Port Simpson Canada will | have no harbor and no outlet on the Pa- cific Coast from the Yukon gold fields. In the House of Commons to-day Gour- ley, member from Colchester, N. 8., whose speeches in the House have gained for him much notorlety, took occasion to refer to the decision Iin the Alaskan boundary case. He said: “If the news is correct that we hear in £DVERTISEMENTS.

We buy Sweaters direct from the miils, and in such quantities that we can undersell the majority of houses. We can give you better value for your money than you will find elsewhere. We have a line of sweaters at $1.50 which we are safe in saying cannot be bought in a great many stores for less than $175.

Gravel-Carrying Sand Running $6000 (o the Ton Located. Mr. Rifenburg announces that the only way to work this property is by a mod- #rp dredger. There is perhaps no more faius min- ing district in the world than Calaveras County, California. In the early ‘50's Cal- averitas was a thriving ming camp, ‘_._ HA LA, ple; money flowed like the water fn the creek by the same name that ran through the town. In these days men got rich separating the gold from the gravel of nding country with the L‘rudf" n in use, and mililons of dol-| rcckers thes | lars have been carried from this socuoni on pack mules to the then distant townm | of Sacramento, thence to the seaboard at| San Francisco. Now at this point there are but a few desgerted cabins, an oceasional ranch and the bed of the old stream, dry in sum- n the win- BED OF CALAVERITAS CREEK AT CALAVERITAS. The company owns two and a half miles of this creek at the point shown in the picture. The ground is free from logs or large bowlders, and can be successfully worked by a dredger of modern type. Such a dredger will be incorporated, and will handle 2000 cubic yards of gravel per day of twenty-four hours, with modern oncentrators for working the black sand. These dredgers are no experiment, as they are to-day working successfully In nearly every gravel mining camp on this conti- nent, as well as in South Africa. The profits from such a dredger at Calaveritas would be over $1000 a day net. Samples of the free gold and black sand heretofore mentioned ean be seen at the office of the company in San Franeisco. The incorporators of the company have subscribed a number of thousand dollars for the preliminary work of getting to- gether the necessary material for work- ing this proposition, and now they have concluded to place a limited amount of the treasury stock within the reach of small investors on monthly payments, if desired, on the following terms, the par value of the shares being 3100, and the company being incorporated for 10,000 shares. This small amount of stock will be sold at $25.00 per share, $5.00 per share being cash and the balance at the rate of $5.00 per month. The day the dredger is installed the company will have an In- come of $1000.00 a day, and as the company does not owe a dollar no more stock will be sold and the dividends will begin im- mediately. Not only will dividends be paid, but the stock will advance to par at once. This stock Is absolutely non-assessable and non-forfeitable. If any subscriber is unable to meet deferred payments it is arranged so that stock for every dollar he has pald will be issued him. mer but a tumbling torrent i ter, while for forty-five years not a pick Calaveritas is situated on the mother lede about midway between San ‘\nd?eu; and Angels Camp, and it was here that | W. G. Rifenburg, E. M., a miner and pros | pector of years of experlence, uncovered | a deposit of gold a few months ago that | proved so rich as to dazzle the imagina- tion of even the most experienced and ac- customed ayers. At a depth of twenty feet in the bed of this creek he found a black sand, the assayer's recovery from Mr. Rifenburg hastened to San Fran- clsco, and after co-operating with a few gentlemen formed a company, to be known as The Calaveras Dredging and Mining Company, to whom he had the property deeded and made the following report: To the Calaveras Dredging and Mining Company, San Franciséo—Gentlemen: I have finished the examination of your property, situated at Calaveritas. I find by careful free tests that the gravel will pay 50 cents per cublc yard in free goid, this principally from surface work; that it contains seven pounds of black sand; that a portion of it is the richest I have ever one ($41.00) dollars per ton; the highest was six thousand (36000.00) dollars in gold, the richest sand known to me on the| globe. It is a great mystery to me that this has not been worked before. How- ever, I obtained the values and am pre- pared to do so again. The richest sand I ever tested before was from the Porcupine district, In Alas- ka, it running two thousand three hun- dred (3$2300.00) dollars per ton. I frequent- Iy find values as high as two hundred and fifty (320.00) dollars to three hundred (3300.00) dollars per ton. I believe your re- coveries will not be less than three mil- lion (33,000,000.00) dollars from this deposit.
