Coming summer.
tent uniformity Of the reports from
Washington and Ottawa respecting tho
ybasis Of settlement adopted in the Beh-
ring Sea question have begun 70 impress
people here With conviction that these
reiterated statements are substantially
true. Our citizens whose capital or in
dussry Is invested in the fur seal fishery
are naturally uneasy under the prospect
OF IN early curtailment Of their means
Of income or livelihood. The projected
close season for fur seals must ncces-
sarily cover the very period OF each
year during which tho fishery can most
proi'tably and naturally Be prosecuted.
and II the impending treaty is TO take
the form indicated in the public prints
OF Canada and the United States. II is
hard 70 foresee how any lawful fishery
OF scals in Behring sea is 70 be carried
on BY others than the lessee OF the
American and Russian seal islands after
the treaty shall have gone into opera
ton. This Is serious matter for the
small capitalists and hardy hunters. who
have heretofore shared with the rich
aessees in the profits OF seal catching.
With regard TO the approaching sea-
son they have not much anxiety. as they
do not expect II 10 b. found practicable
to put the contemplated preventive
measures in operation in time TO inter
fcre with this years catch. and they
look for an unusually good market for
their takings BY reason OF the reduction
OF the number OF seals to be killed this
year At the Pribylov Islands to so. 900.
which will leave deficiency OF 10000
skins in the customary supply. and so
create lively demand for s'poachod"
skins at an enhanced price.
This demand our seal-h-n:ors pro-
pose to meet. 50 far as they can. in part
compensation for their anticipated FRI
walton II is therefore likely that there
will be lively times in Behring Sea next
summer. and Secretary Windows rev.
enue cutters will have to be ubiquitous
~ they are going 10 interfere seriously \
with the grand final act Of spoliation OF
the seal. There are some who question
whether the Government OF the United
States will presume TO enforce further
assumptions OF exclusive proprietorship
IN Behring Sea when II is about to re-
nounce its pretensions in that direction.
Certain II is that our sealing owners
and hunters will have some very un-
pleasant things to say aloud OF the Cab
met At Ottawa and the British Legation
q Washington II they do not take care
that the detestei revenue cutters are
hauled of while the new international
arrangement Is being set on its feet.
Il seems reasonable TO presume that all
these matters OF detail will receive dus
and timely attention and be settled be-
tween Secretary Blaine and Sir Julian
