WASHINGTON, Special Telegram. July 81
The seizure of a British sealer in BehriDg
sea settles all doubts as to the secret iustr uc-
tions under which the revenue marine gun
boats were sent out. The public orders to
the vessels have always been the same-to
enforce the law and prevent the catching of
seal out of season and out of the limits
Many people believe that Mr. Bayard's pacific
and waiting policy woHld be continued by
this administration, and that the patrolling
of Behring sea would be a mere matter of
form. This belief encouraged large num-
Der of piratical gealers to cruise in the SEA,
and il the policy indicated by the seizure Of
the Black Diamond is followed up. there will
probably be a large number of seizures
before the summer is over 1t ia
not unlikely that this policy has been
determined upon in order to force Great
Britain to consiIer the proposition for an in
ternatiOnal agreement Should a claim for
damages be made for the seizure OF the Ca
madam sealer the resulting negotiations may
bring up discussion of the merits of the
case and open way for the desired under
standing. The state department officials do
not anticipate any trouble over the seizure
of the Black Diamond.

Wilcox declines to go into the matter, can
not. However, could do SO, you would see

CHICAGO, July 31.-The Transcontinental
association to-day finally succeeded in stav-
ing off the disaster that has threatened it,
and securing an EXTENSION of existence for q
period of three months at least The dispute
between the Southern Pacific and the Cana
dian Pacific was settled by compromise.
The latter, though still refusing to abrogate
its differentials entirely, agreed to reduce
them to the extent of 25 to
35 per cent, which is greater
concession than was offered last week. The
Southern Pacific accepted the proposition
on trial for ninety days, agreeing to suspend
action on its notice of withdrawal during
that time This restores harmony for the
time being, and it is not believed that the
quarrel will again be revived. The Northern
Pacific, which had also given notice of with
drawal on account of its controversy with
the Union Pacific, will hold its notice in
allegiance pending the NEGOTIATIONS now in
progress between the officials of the roads in
