UNHAPPY BRITISH 11sHERMES.
They Say the French Have the Best or th,
Modus VIvendi

Yesterdays dispatches from Newfoundland
told Of the closing Of Mr.. Baird's lobster fnc-
tories at Fishels Brook, Bay st. George. by
authority OF Sir Baldwin Walker. CAPTAIN OF
the British war ship Emerald. This explAna-
tlon OF the closing OF British subjects fac
tory by a British Captain Is given by Z. H.
outerbrdge OF the Produce Exchange:
The British CAPTAINS action was taken in
view OF a claim set up by the French and for
the time at least admitted by England In the
modus vivendi, which in effect prohibits the
English from setting up any permanent build
ing on the west coast OF tho island. The
colonists at St. Pierre at first did their fishing
in big craft Of from 800 to 1000 tons, and It
took long time with the best OF luck
to load them on the Banks This
made It necessary for the Frenchmen to put
their fish In the hold as fast as they were
taken. There the fish became what is known
as pickle cured as distinguished from sun
cured. Such fish are not as salabe as sun
cured hsh. The Observation-Disclosures put out in
little boats 70 to 100 tons, and. getting a cargo
speedily. put back TO shore. whore they SUN
dried the hsh, and 80 obtained a more valuable

ones ecr Them 6g going back to ST. Pierre and

forth as one OF their grievances that the French
got some intimetion Of what the modus vivendi
was to be before they had right to the infor-

involves serious hardship for them. The clos

WASHINGTON. June 27.-Mr. valente. the
B aziian Minister. said to- night that there
was no foundation whatever for the story
which has gained circulation that there was
likely to be trouble soon between Chill and
Brazil and that the latter country had entered
into an alliance with Peru and the Argentine
Republic against Chill. The relations between
Brazil and Chill were so friendly. he said. as
to mako the report absurd. 1t was also
not the policy OF the Provisional Gov
eminent OF Brazil to enter into any
offensive or defensive alliances. Brazil bearing
good will to all other South American repub-
lies and hostility to none Of them. Moreover,
the Government had Just acIuiesced heartily.
and in good faith in the recommendation OF
the Pan-American Conference that disputes
between the American republics should be set

vent her entering into alliances to wage war
