HC Deb 24 October 1899 vol 77 c578
MR. HOGAN

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any agreement has yet been arrived at with the Government of the United States in connection with the Alaskan boundary.

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR,) (for Mr. BRODRICK) Manchester, E.

Yes. An agreement for a provisional boundary between Canada and Alaska in the neighbourhood of the Lynn Canal has been arrived at with the Government of the United States, and its text will be laid on the Table of the House, so soon as the terms of the notes recording it have been received from Washington.
