the House of Commons Sir Charles
Upper yesterday said no conven-
ton, agreement, understanding, or
modus vivendi had been arrived at
with the United States with refer
ence to the use or navigation of the
waters or harbors of Behring Sea
during the season of 1888, by Cana
dian vessels for the purpose of fish
ing, trading, sealing or shelter.
Ottawa, Mar. 7-Canada's propo-
sal for the settlement of the fish
cries dispute on trade basis and
the American answer thereto was
laid before Parliament to-day, by
consent of the negotiators. The
proposition from the British pleni-
potentiary was TO the effect that the
fishermen of both countries should
have all the privileges enjoyed dur
ing the existence Of the fishery arti-
cles of the treaty of Washington, in
consideration of mutual arrange
mcnt for freedom of commercial
intercourse. The American nego-
tators declined the proposal, be-
cause the great freedom so proposed
would necessitate the adjustment of
the tariff by Congressional action,
which adjustment they consider i'm
practicable through the medium of q
treaty under the present circum-
stances. Nor could the Ameri
cans admit that such an arrange
ment could be accepted as consti-
tuting a suitable basis for negotia-
| tons.

Sth says: Not deferred by the
disasters which overlook Riels
Northwest rebellion in 1885, the
half-breeds are again agitating q
similar movement to redress their
grievances, which are said to be
great. Several big meetings have
been held recently, at which letters
have been read from the old rebel,
Gabriel Dumont, advising another
rising. The Liberal Government
will probably give some aid to the
suffering half-breeds, although their
movement is not much feared.
MEXICO.
Nogales, March 1.-The invasion
of Mexico by Guatemala troops has
caused Il good deal of excitement
here, it being all the talk among the
Mexican citizens. A good many
leading men express surprise, but
looked forward to something of that
kind for a long time. They believe
the step taken is political revolu-
ton in Mexico for the purpose OF
preventing the reelection of Presi
dent Diaz, or, at least, to furtheI
extend what dissatisfaction ther,
may be with Diaz's Administration
A certain class of people in Mexico
are always ready to join a revolution
therefore it would be no surprise il
a number of small revolutions were
started before the Presidential cleo.
