THE FISHERIES.

The recommendations contained in my
last annual message in relation to a mode of
settlement Of the fishery rights in the waters
OF British North America so long subject
OF anxious difference between the United
States and Great Britain, was met by an ad-
verse vote OF the senate April 13 last, and
thereupon negotiations were instituted Co
obtain an agreement with her Britannia
majestys government for the PRONUNCIATION
OF such Interpretation and definition of the
article of the convention OF 1918, relating
to the territorial waters and inshore fisher
les OF the British provinces, as should secure
the Canadian rights from encroachmcnt by
United States fishermea, and at the same
time ensure enjoyment by the latter Of the
privileges guaranteed to them by such con-
yention. The questions involved were of
long standing and grave consequences. and
from time TO time for nearly three-quarters
! OF century have given rise 20 earnest in
ternationa1 discussions, not unaccom-
panied by irritation. Temporary ar
engagements by treaties have served
to nllay friction, which, however, has re-
vived as each treaty was terminated The
last arrangement under the treaty OF 1871
was abrogated after due notice by the United
States on June 20, 1855, but was enabled
! to obtain for our fishermen for the remain
/ der OF that season enjoyment of the full
privileges accorded by the terminating
treaty The joint commission by whom the
treaty had been negotiated, although in
vested with pienary power to make a per-
manent settlement, were content with q

DIPLOMATIC AID COY ULAR.

consular appropriation act. approved July /
1856, the estimates submitted by the secretary
OF state for the maintenance OF the consuln
service have been recast on the basis OF sslarief
for all officers to whom such allowance is deemed
advisable. Advantage has been taken Of this TO
redistribute the salaries OF the officers now sp
propriated for in accordance with the work Per
formed, the importance Of the representative

Gov. Pleree's Resignation.

Washington Spec ial: When Gov. Pierce
OF Dakota WAS in Washington three weeks
ago he rendered his resignation to the presi-
dent, butat the request OF the latter with
drew it. The president wanted him to re-
main in office till the end OF his term, which
is two years hence, and Pierce consented to
give the matter more reflection. Buthe has
finally decided that il is better for the
president as well as for himself to retire
with a request that it be accepted and his
successor appointed before the meeting OF
the Dakota legislature in January.
The impression is that Louis X. Church,
who was member OF the New
York legislature while Cleveland
was governor, and won the latter's esteem
by the ability and energy he showed, will
be appointed the successor OF Gov. Pierce
in a few days. Church is now Judge OF
the supreme court of Dakota. As has
been stated, NJ. II. Day, the Dakota men,
Der OF the national Democratic com
mittee, is making vigorous fight
for the place. The president is being
buried under a shower of letters and
kilograms in his behalf, and influential
Democrats from other sections OF the
country are working for him. Even Judge
Church himself has written letter to the
president reeommendingDay, but neverthe-
pointed. Pierce's letter OF resignation Is
as follows:
Wizards Hotel, Washington, d. c., Nov.
10, 1SS6.-Mr. President: hereby tender
my resignation as governor OF the Terri
tory of Dakota. Offices Of this character
were made an exception to the rules gov

The United States Supreme Court
has rendered an important decision
in AN extraditicn case, the question
being. whether, under the extradition
treaty iii force between the United
States and Great Britain, a person
extradited for one offense can be
tried for another. The Supreme
Court holds in an opinion by Justice
Miller, that a person who has been
brought within the jurisdiction of the
court by virtue OF proceedings under
an extradition treaty can only be
tried for one of the offenses described
in the treaty, and for the offense with
which he is charged in the proceedings
for his extradition, until reasonable
time and opportunity have been given
him after his release or trial under
such charge to return to the country
from which he had been forcedly taken
under these proceedings.

In railroad building the United
States far outstrips all other nations.
Up to the close OF 1884 there were
throughout the whole world about
29l. 900 miles OF railway, OF which
nearly one-half was in the United
States. More perhaps than anything
else this accounts for the unprecedent-

NEEDED LEGISLATION
The report concludes by making the fol-
lowing suggestions as TO needed legislation:
First-We recommend that the law requiring

deem the transit ticket a. par.
Tbird-That the board of railroad commission
ers be authorized to bring suit In the name OF
the territory against any OF the public corpora
tions, or pubic elevators or warehouses. over
which they now have, or NAV hereafter be given

abuse by said corporation of its franchise. OF
owner or proprietor OF an elevator or storehouse,
Of his trust, or to recover for any damage done

the attorney general shall in writing give his
consent thereto.
Fourth--That the sttorney general be author
lied TO prosecute on behalf Of the territory, in
all cases thus begun.
Fifth-That all elevators, warehouses and
