WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-The interrupted
diplomatic negotiations between the
United States and Great Britain, growing
out OF the Behring sea seal fisheries, are
about to be resumed. The last communi-
cation from Lord Salisbury to Sir Julian
Pauncefote concludes as follows:
IL have to request that you will commu-
nicate a copy of this dispatch to Mr..
Blaine You will state that her majesty's
government have no desire whatever to
refuse to the United States any jurisdic-
tion in Behring sea which WAS conceded by
Great Britain to Russia, and which prop
erly accrues TO the present possessors of
Alaska in virtue of treaties or the law of
nations, and that if the United States
government, after the examination of the
evidence and arguments which have pro-
duced, still differ from them as to the
legality of the recent captures in that sea,
they are ready to agree that the question,
with the issues that depend upon it, should
be referred to impartial arbitration. You
will in that case be authorized to consider,
in concert with Mr.. Blaine, the method Of
procedure to be followed"
Mr.. Blaine Is Cautious.
Mr.. Blaine expects on Thursday to meet
the British minister, Sir Julian Paunce-
forte, and will then notify him to hand In
definite proposals and projects for the at.
bitration. Mr.. Blaine considers that as
the proposition to refer the question TO ar
bitration has come from the British gov
ernment. he is entitled to see what view
that government takes OF the subsidiary
question as to how the proposed arbitra-
tion shall be conducted.

RECIPROCITY FAVORED.
Secretary Blaine's Idea Endorsed
by the Merchants.

President George c. Perkins presided
over n special meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce yesterday afternoon, called for
the purpose of discussing the question of
commercial reciprocity, as embodied in the
letter of the Hon. Secretary of State James
G., Blaine to Senator Frye of Maine.
President Perkins stated on calling the
meeting to order that the Board of Trustees
had been in correspondence with similar
commercial bodies of the East, which had
asked for an expression of the opinion of
the merchants of San Francisco. Messrs.
Chapman, Watt, Taylor, Rosenfeld and An
derson had been appointed to draft a suita-
BILE resolution expressive of the sentiments
of the chamber, and on being called upon
for their report presented the t0ll0win z:
WHEREAS, The Chamber of Commerce OF san
Franci desi es the adoption of policy calcu-
lated TO develop the trades and industries OF the
Pacific Coast, as well as of the entire republic
by securing Tor our products Inc control OF our
adjunct markets. Now, therefore, be IL
ResoiUed. In view OF tue consideration of this
question in connection with the Tariff Bill before
the Senate, that This chamber Is strongly in favor
Of commercial reciprocity as embodied IN a let
ter received on July 18th by Senator William Z.
Frye of Maine from Hon. j. e. Blaine, Secretary
of State, and requests the Pacific Coast delegates
In Congress TO give il their unanimous support.
: ResOtUed, That this resolution be telegraphed
TO our Senators and Representatives In Congress
as the unanimous opinion OF the chamber.
: Stewart Men2es and c. l.. Taylor both
spoke in favor of the resolution, the latter
referring particularly to the tactics adopted
by Brazil in levying an export duty on cof-
fee. when placed on the free list by the
United States. Reciprocity, ..he argued,
would have prevented this, and would pre-
vent similar action by foreign countries on
the sugar. question. =
ON being put to a vote the resolutions
were unanimously carried and the Secre-
tary was instructeG.to wire them to Wash.
iigton at once. :: :: -.

observed that the United States revenue
from distilled spirits has fallen off in
States which are under prohibitionist con-
troll, it is hardly likely that the country win
follow their lead.
r The increased consumption Of fermented
liquors is reflected in receipts of S26,000,o00
fromthe internal revenue tax on that COM
+ modify. This Implies an annual consump-
|. ton of"abont 920,0000C0 gallons of beer-a
pTodigious quantity to be drunk by 65,000.0O0
of people. The taste for beer is said to be
growing in this country at the expense OF
the taste for: spirits But the figures above
given would seem TO imply that whisky
drinking increases almost pari passu with
beer-drinking, and 1t would be nearer
the truth to, say that the increased con-
sumption of both means increased wealth.
among the working: people and increased
means to spend on luxuries.
The tax ON tobacco yielded last year in
round figures S34, 000O 600. From 1875 to 1888
that source of revenue yielded annually
from .S37, 100000 to S47,O0OO0O. In 1882
CongIess was offered the alternative of re-
ducing' the tax on tobacco or the duties on
imports, and it was decided to cut down
the >f0rmer. Accordingly the revenue from
tobacco ,fell.-off from S42. 100000 in 1888 to
$4,000, 600 in: 1884. Since the latter date it
has been steadiIy:c up: If the re-
%ductions: in: the. Tobacco tax contemplated
.by Tie pending revenue bill go into effect,

THE INTERNAL REVENUE.

The internal revenue receipts Tor the
fiscal year 18S9-9O reflect period of tran
quill prosperity and growing comfort among
the people at large. They amounted in
round numbers to SIP 5000 the largest
sum collected by the internal revenue col
lectors since 1888, when tue act of 1882, re-
ducin5 the duty on tobacco and abOlishing
other taxes, went into effect. At the pres
ent time the only articles which are subject
to direct taxation are distilled aud fer
mented liquors, tobacco and oleomargarine :;
but a tax on these four articles, which is
not felt by the public, produces revenue
larger than the total revenues OF the Gov
eminent from all sources before tile year
1868.
Over one-half of the total revenue from
internal taxes is collected from distilled
spirits-whisky. That article contributed
last year ISL 10000 for the support of the
GoVernmeDt-a larger sum than was ever
before collected from that source. Whisky
may be said to defray one-third the whole
cost Of the Government. A portion of our
citizens would have us throw away this
revenue for the sake of promoting the
cause Of temperance, but as it has not been

Has it ever. occurred. to Mir. .Crittenden
that sectional. action by a minority section

majority section into closer unity. The peo-
pie of the United States are. not fit far. the
.forni-of; government they have adopted IN
less they have the moral sense 10 be just to
minorities. The election bill on its face is
bill to provide for fair elections of Con
gressmen in all parts of the country. Why
does the South become SO excited over this
measure? Is it because considerable por-
ton of its representation in Congress is the
result Of intimidation and fraudulent count
ing? II not why not let the measure 60
into operation that its iniquities may be
demonstrated? The power that Will pass it
can repeal il. If it does not produce good
results, the party that supports it will de-
mand its repeal. Some so-called Southern
statesmen are somewhat too ready with
their counsel. They have infamed the
Southern mind with the idea that a meas
ure which applies to the entire Union is de-
signed to do tie South a mortal injury. 1t
is safe to say that there is no desire in the
North to do the South harm. There is not
one Republican in ten that would harm the
South unnecessarily to secure partisan ad-
vantage. 1t is just to the people of all the
States who are affected by the laws of Con-
gress to provide that members elected rep
resent the people of their several districts.

The most imDnlsive demOcracies. tits just
abb ut ten years ago since the thrift of the
Jews in Continental Europe revived the old
popular prejudice against them. Germany.
then took the lead; the feeling took the.
name Of the Juden bette, and parties were
formed which demanded the bodily expul-
sion of the Hebrews from Prussia, Austria
Hungary and other countries in which the
rural population was in debt TO the Jews.
Bismarck was willing to pander 90 the feel
ing; but the then Crown Prince, who after
ward became the Emperor Frederick, OPP
posed il so vigorously that the persecution
was defeated, so far as Germany was con-
cerned. BismaTk had to content himself
with exiting numbers of Poles on the
ground that they were Catholics. But the
En-, error OF. Russia had no press or Parlla-
meat to keep him in check He sanctioned
decree by which no Jew was allowed to
hold or lease real estate, or to exercise a
learned profession, or to reside except in
certain specified towns.
The decree was no sooner proclaimed than
a protest arose from the whole civilized
world. Wealthy Europeans, horror-stricken
at the prospect of booming four million
human beings to starvation, attempted to
organize wholesale migration of Russian
jews to this country. This led TO vigorous
protests from the Government at Wash
iugton, and tile language used by the
American, English and French Ministers at
ST. Petersburg was so menacing that the
Gar suspended the action OF TIE decree
Now, eight years afterWard, he proposes to
carry it into effect.
This is transplanting into the last quarter
Of the nineteenth century the barbarous
tenets OF the fifteenth. II the Jews cannot
laIm, or practice a calling, or even live
where they can sell their labor, they are in
a sad condition.
II Is not for a moment to be supposed
that the Christian world will submit to the
execution OF this decree. No country is
willing to admit four million foreign
paupers, speaking a foreign tongue and
-HHacQuainted with the ways of countries
other than their own; for the simple reason
thatthe great bulk of them would necessarily
become dependent upon the nation under
whose flag they sought shelter. The Amer
lean people are the mildest and most gener-
Gus people on earth. But il Russia at
tempted, directly or Indirectly, to dump
four millions Of people into this country,
Mr.. Harrison would protest in language
which could not be misunderstood. 1t is the
business of every nation TO care for such
among its population as are so unfortunate
as to invite the hatred of their fellow
cOuntrymen. Ne country can eyade that
duty by enactihg laws which compel the
exile Of large bodies OF its people.
