toolr into account the fact that the offense
was committed before any warning had
been issued to American fishermen, or be-
fore any cruisers but the Lansdowne had been
commissioned. and released the Steele Satur-
day morning without fine and with a
warning not to repeat the offense. Late Sat
urday night another American schooner, the
Moro Castle, was seized at Port Mulgrave,
in the Strait of Canso, charged with SNUG
Cling and other violations of the customs
laws. No details have been given, but the
seizure is no doubt similar to the many 9TH
ers that have been made in the attempt TO
harass our fishermen by rigid interpreta-
ton of customs laws. The treaty of 1918 does
not seem to be involved in any way.
Meanwhile the seizure of the British yes
sells which were caught violating American
law by killing seals in Behring's Sea has oc-
casioned considerable of stir in govern
ment circles in Canada. 1t has even been
stated grayely during the last week that the
government at Ottawa had sent to Washing
ton peremptory demand for the release OF
the vessels, But this can be hardly true, Tor
the Dominion government, though 1t may
now claim to be maritime power, would
hardly venture to enter upon diplomatic cor
respondence except through the British gov
eminent 1t is said that the Canadians are
dwelling with considerable emphasis upon
the fact that one of the vessels was seized
sixty-two miles, and the other one hundred
and iifty-six miles from land. Whether the
United States has jurisdiction over waters
so far from land depends entirely upon the
validity of its title to Behring' Sea- This title
was obtained from Russia There is no
doubt that Russia had right to sell Alaska
and the Aleutian Islands; whether she could
sell the sovereignty Of the imm, nse sea,
which is very nearly landlocked by Alaska,
| the chain of Aleutian Islands, and the coast
| of Asia, may be questioned by Canada and
| Great Britain. The sea In question is larger
| than the Mediterranean, and three or foul
times as large as the Gulf of Mexico. Al
| present the United States holds title t.
| nearly the whole of it. If England makes {
test case of the seizure of the schooners
she will endeavor to overthrow that title
| 1t is certainly to be hoped that the attempt
will not he made until another than Mr.
Bayard is at the head our State Depart

The merit of perfecting plan for the cap
ture of the sea serpent must be allowed to
some Connecticut Yankees who dwell by a
tide-water river called Menunkatuck. Not
far from the mouth Of this river there is a
large basin which becomes a lake at high
tide and bare fiat at low water. Its en-
trance happens to be guarded by gate
which may be opened and shut at pleasure
This gateway once passed the reptile will
find himself imprisoned, and finally stranded
at low tide. just how the serpent is to be
toled into the basin is not told; but probably
the fats will be baited with wooden nutmegs.
When the capture has been effected the cap
tors plan to send to Yale College, twenty
miles distant, for corps Of scientists to view
the "critter." Later the leviathan may be
taken to Barnum at Bridgeport This is the
most subtle plot ever made against the sea
serpent, and If it don't succeed it will be be
cause the old snake is too vice to go near
the Yankees of MA~unKatuck.
