The Fish Question.
THE CANADIAN VIEWS OF THE
SUBJECT.
Comments of the London Press on the
Awards.

New YORK, March 81. The Toronto Globes
London special If lines editorial on the fisher
les awards says 1t is unfortunate for the fame of
the states that at moment when the iinanc ia
policy OF Congress has awakened grave suspicious
and anXleties IN Europe, some American politl-
Clans of considerable importance and notonety,
display another phase Of the rcpudiating spirit 10
opposing the payment OF the award.
The reckless language OF Blaine and Butler is
not only throwing dlscredit on the country, but is
damaging the system Of settling international dis
I'utes by arbitration.
No country henceforward will he willing to re-
fer claims to arbitration if the decision of the AZ
hluators Is lshle to n challenge by the uIsuCcess
full party. This Is as plain rs that American cred
will he severely shaken if they refuse to abide
by the award.
1t wi be reasonably argued that government
which seek, to tvade the consequence Of n refer
ence to Il bunal chosen with with its full knowl-
edge and full consent, is not likely to be scrupu-
lous in maintaining obligations of inconve ME Mt
contracts with foreign creditors.
1t would be as unwlse, as undigniied for the
States to provoke the ind gnaton of England, and
all the civilized word by refusal to pay indis-
putable claim.
The questions considered by the commiss ion
are such Il at only those who mastered the whole
case, perhaps only those present throughout the
whole enquiry, have any claim to pronounce an
opinion.
The American cause put before the commission
ers, was most ably, completely and fully heard.
We take it for granted, therefore, that the amount
OF award is reasonable. If 1t seemed to Amer-
cans unusually large, self-respect and regard for
the principles Of arbitration ought to have
strained expressions OF Impotence.
Attempts al evasion and attacks upon the Impair
TALLY of Delfosse are of piece with the spirit of
chlcanery which has attempted to force an inter-
probation of unanimous award.
We hope and believe that Mr.. Blaine will not
be able to get Congress of his countrvmen to
him a ptusal a the award and
stamp the Anne rican policy with the double dis
credit OF meanness and trckines.

The fear of the silver bill has died away, but
the people now begin to dread what may follow,
and there is prevailing and widespread feeling
that if Americans are to try experiments on their
credit, they had much better do so with the debt
held at home than in Eugish hands. People sell
therefore, and more likely to continue while
so much that is dangerous seems to surround the
