British government, Is not 9 claim for the
resteredon Of tsof7any other partsof the
Halifax aSard'upon the ground of non:
ful6liment of conditions. The present claim
is for such grievances and is to be consider,
ed without reference 70 the amount Of the
Halifax award with which it has nothing to
do. Welsh was instructed to base the claim
fol $lC3,0 900 upon the actual loss and dam
age sustained by American fishermen in
consequence Of. the violent invasion of their
treaty rights at Fortune bay, and to obtain
some security against a recurrence of simi.
lar offenses in the future. Advices received
BY the state department from the North
American coast represent that although nc
actual violence has occurred this year, our
fishermen are deferred by. approximations Of
violence from approaching the shore or car
(fying sou their business with the freedom
guaranteed; to them by the treaty, and that
we are therefore deriving no benefit from
our agreement with the British government
and getting no return for our money. The
state Of feeling which prevails between our
north coast fishermen and British American
fishermen who conslder Themselves justified
in using force to carry out the local prohib-
itory laws is regarded by our government ~
extremely dangerous, and liable at any mo-
mentsto lead tofbloodshed and serious mis-
understanding, and it is therefore very anx-
ious thst some steps shall be taken BY the
British, gpyenment to do away with The
local prphibitory, laws of the Canadian pro-
vinces which new practically override and
nullifyEthe treaty provisional of q higher ID:
