WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 32.-
Minister Welch, in handing Lord
Salisbury the five and half mill
lions fishery award, handed also q
communication, in which, under
instructions from Washington, he
stated that the payment was made
because the United States desires
to maintain the value and good
faith of arbitration and treaties be,
tween nations aud, above all,
with Great Britain. With
this motive our Government
reserves the question of
obligation to pay the amount, al
though 1t does not withhold it. The
United States Government also
wishes it understood that the
amount awarded by the Halifax
Commission cannot be understood
as furnishing a precedent or fixing
the value of benefits accruing to
her fishermen on the banks of New
Foundland. Itprotests against the
actual payment being considered
by Her Majesty's government as
acquiescence in any such measure,
