Graf, Bennett & Co., Assign-Estmated Liabilities
$1,000, 600 to 81 400. 900.
PrTsBURG, February 21.-Graff, Ben
nett & Co., iron manufacturers of this
city, filed a deed of assignment to P. H.
Miller, of PIttsburg, to-day. The failure
was great surprise, as nothing of the
kind was looked for. In 1899 the firm
failed for S120, 900 and We're granted an
extension. Since then they have paid
about two-thirds of their Indebtedness,
and We're supposed to be doing well. The
cause of the failure was the investment
of all their profits in the extension of
their plant. No statement has yet been
made, but it is understood that the Sc
cured liabilities are about 5000, 900, and
the unsecured liabilities from 100000
to $500, 900. The latter consists of nc ses
for ore and other materials. Among the
liabilities is mortgage for Si50, 900 held
by the New York Life insurance Com
pany, which is not yet due. The assets
are believed to be about $500, ,00C. Judg-
ments aggregating $4,000 We're entered
against the firm this morning.

PROTOCOL.
The treaty having been signed bv the
British plenipotentiaries, they desire to
state that they have been considering
the position which will be created by the
immediate commencement of the fishing
season before the treaty can possibly be
ratified by the Senate of the United
States, by the Parliament of Canada
and the Legislature of Newfoundland
In the absence of such ratification, the
old conditions, which have given rise to
so much friction and irritation might be
revived, and might interfere with the
unTrejudiced consideration of the treaty
by the legislative bodies concerned.
Under these circumstances, and with
the further object of affording evidence
of their anxious desire to promote good
feeling and to remove all possible sub
jects of controversy, the British plenipo-
tentiaries are ready to make the follow
ing temporary arrangement for period
not exceeding two years in order to af
ford Bodus Uirendi pending the ratifi-
cation of the treaty:
l. For period not exceeding two
years from the present date, the privi-
lege of entering the bays and harbors of
the Atlantic coast of Canada and New
fonndland shall be granted to United
States fishing vessels by annual licenses
at fee of one dollar and half per ton
for the following purposes: Purchase of
bait, ice, seines, lines and all other sup
plies and outfits. Transhipment of catch
and shipping of crews.
2. If during the continuance of this
arrangement the United States should re-
move the duties on fish. fish oil, whale
and seal oil, and their coverings, pack
ages, etc, said licenses shall be issued
free of charge.
3. United States fishing vessels enter
ing the bays and harbors of the Atlantic
coast of Canada or of Newfoundland for
any of the purposes mentioned inArticle
l of the convention of October 20, 1918,
and not remaining therein more than
twenty-four hours, shall not be required
to enter or clear at the custom house:
providing, that they do not communi-
cate with the shore.
4. Forfeiture to be exacted only for
offenses of fishing or preparing to fish in
territorial waters.
D. This arrangement to take effect as
soon as the necessary measures can be
completed by the colonial authorities.
