ALASKAN BOUNDARY.
Arguments Heard Before Commiselon
In London.
London, Oct. 3.-Sir JDdward- Careon,
solicitor general, consumed. %he morn
Ing session of the Alaskan boundary
commission today in endeavoring to
refute the arguments of David T. Wat.
son and Hannis Taylor, of counsel for
the United States, especially protest
ing against Mr. Taylor's contention
that the term "trend of the coast"
could only apply to the political coast
line and not to the physical coast line.
He alsgo maintained that the principle
of acquieeonce was not applicable to
the present dispute and somewhat sur
prilsod the audience by declaring that
under the powers of the treaty of
1903 the commissioners had no author.
ity to define questions submitted to
them and that they could neither lay
down the bound-ary .nor decide what
constituted the coast. All the com
missionera could do was to answer
questions submitted to themi in the
trea,ty either negatively or affirmative.
ty.
If they gave certain answers they
might make matters more confuso-j
than over, ad open up a new series of
diplomatic tangles. The solicitor
general concluded with an eloquent
reference to Great Britain's unwilling.
ness to give up any of her subjects
into the control of other nations, lHe
dleclared -he thought the public might
think the conmmission was slow and
that counsed were wasting time; but
no time and no money would ever be
wasted if the long-standing dispute
between the two great and friendly na.
tions could be solved by the tribunal.
When Jacob M. iDekinson, of counsel
for the United States rose to conclude
tho arguments, the room was filling up
with sp~etators. He commenced by be.
littling the minute examinations of
mnaps and the bickerIng over words
and details, declaring that the ('ase
could only be0 settled by grasjping the
central idea concerning the original
negotiations.

of Georgia.
Atlanta, Oct. 2.-Thus far the fran
[hioo tax law has added $11,695,762.25
In property values upon which -reve
nuo is paid to the state of Georgia.
There are still four frauchises to
be arbitrated, the aggregate assess
ments of which amount to the sum of
$5,883,000, and make a possible total
of $17.078,762.25.
The franchises yet to be aTbitmatod
are:
The Savannah Street Railway com
pany, assessed at $1,430,000; the At
lanta and West Point railroad, assess
ed at $1,660,000; the Georgia Railway
and Electric company, assessed at
$2,200,000, and the Atlanta Belt Rail
road company, assessed at $93,000.
Of these the Savannah Street Rail
road company is to be taken up by
the arbitration board on Oct. 5 and the

In many instances the assessment o'

on anything like the real value of their
franchises. Howvever, the total amount
of property added td the ravenuo r-e
aources of the state is vast.
