Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Alaskan Boundary Tribunal, 1904, Vol. 4 The United States, pursuant to the provisions of Article II of the treaty of January 24, 1903, herewith submits to the Tribunal created thereunder, its printed Counter Case and additional documents, correspondence and evidence, in reply to the printed Case, documents, correspondence and evidence presented to the Tribunal on behalf of Great Britain. The United States, considering that the scope of the printed Cases was to set forth the positions of the respective governments as to the matters in controversy without reference to the attitude heretofore taken by the other, did not in its printed Case anticipate the claim which it was presumed would be advanced by the British Government, or adduce evidence to controvert the same. Furthermore, had such a course, in the opinion of the United States, been in accord with the intent of the treaty of January 24, 1903, that government would have been embarrassed in pursuing it by reason of the varied and conflicting claims, which have been from time to time in recent years advanced by public men and writers in Canada, as to the delineation of the boundary line now under consideration. As a further reason for avoidance of such a course by the United States, the Government of Great Britain had never officially indicated which, if any, of the several lines heretofore proposed by Canadian statesmen, writers and cartographers would receive its official approval and support. Under these circumstances the United States deems that it would have been inappropriate on its part to have followed a method of treatment based solely upon conjecture as to the attitude which would be assumed by His Majesty´s Government. Moreover, since the attitude of Great Britain was uncertain, the concessions which might be made on her part were equally so.
