BEHRING SEA.
The Agreement for Closed Season and
the Prospects of Arbitra alton.

The Agreement for a Closed Season and
the Prospects of Arbitration.
In view of the reports which have been re-
ceived RS to the diminution OF the seal herds in
the Behring sea, deemed 1t wise to propose to
her majesty IS government, in February last, that
all agreement for a closed season should be
made, pending the negotiations for arbitration,
which then seemed to be approaching a favora-
bic conclusion. After much correspondence and
delays for which this government was not re-
sponsible, an agreement was reached and signed
on the 18th OF June, by which Great Britain un-
dertook from that date and until May l. 1892,
to prohibit the killing by her subjects OF seals in
the Behring sea- and the government OF the
United States, during the same period, to en-
force its existing prohibition against pelagic
sealing and to limit the catch by the
skins. If this agreement could have been reached
earlier, i'll response to the strenuous endeavors
OF this government it would have been more
effective; but, coming even as late as ~ did, 1t
unquestionabiy resulted in greatly diminishing
the destruction OF seals by the leading sealers.
In my last annual message l stated that the
basis Of arbitration proposed by her majesty's
pending controversy as to the seal fisheries was
not acceptable am glad to be able to an
nounce that terms satisfactory to this govern
ment have been agreed upon and that all agree
ment as to the arbitrators is all that Is neces-
sary to the completion OF the convention In
view OF the advanced petition which this gov
eminent has taken upon International arbitra-
to this method for the settlement OF disputes
such as have arisen III the Behring sea will, I
doubt not, meet with the concurrence OF con-
gress.

M1NNEwAuKAN, Dec 12.-[Special. j.
Samuel Smith, whose home is near
Whitby, Wells county, forty miles from
Minnewaukan, was found frozen to
death near his home. From his
daughter. Mrs. Jessie Parker, the wife
of railroad man whose home is in
Devils Lake, these particulars were
learned: my father came to Grand
Forks sixteen years ago, and moved to
Whitby seven years ago. He is one of
the Oldest settlers in that country. On
Nov. 26 he started for load of wood,
and on the way home he was caught in
drift of snow, six miles from home on
his own meadow, twenty rods from his
own hay stacks. He unhitohed his
horses and started ahead, but was over
come with cold and sank down in q
stupor about half way between the shed
and the stacks. The horses, which he
had raised from colts, stayed with him
three days, and in their hunger they
had chewcd the harness almost to
pieces. He was discovered on the
twenty.ninth. He leaves four sons and
five daughters. Two of the daughters
are married, one being Mrs. Parker and
the other residing in Wisconsin.

A Friendly Kick to the Gear Against His

This government has found occasion to ex-

concern because Of the harsh measures now be-
ing offered against the Hebrews in Russia. By
the revival of anti-Semitic laws long in abey-

bility OF finding subsistence within the pale to

North Dako,a's Banking Law.

JAMESTOWN, N. D., Dec. 1O.-North
Dakota's state banking law has been in
operation about one year, and the re-.
suit as obtained from Public Examiner
Wallace shows the act to be one of value
and benefit to the state. Fears that
banking capital would be driven from
the state have not been fulfilled; in fact,
the reverse is true, and there has been
an increase in the number of small
banks operating under the law, while a
number of larger private banks have be.
come national banks with an increase
of capital stock. The law has added
about 81, 600 900 to the taxable property
of the state. On Oct. 81 there were
sixty-one state banks in operation with
capital of $9Os, 1873; deposits, 3d.
269, 22220. The average capital of the
state bank is $13, 248.1 10 and the average
deposits 1897, 10000. All the statements
show that the deposits have been greatly
increased.

OUTBREAKS IN CHINA.

A Demand for tho Protection Of Citi-
zens of the United States.
The late outbreak against foreigners invarious
parts OF the Chinese empire has been cause OF
deep pain in view OF the numerous establish
ments OF our citizens in the interior Of that
country. This government can do no less than
insist upon a continuance Of the protective and
pnnitory measures which the Chinese govern
ment has heretofore applied. No effort will be
omitted to protect our citizens peaceably So
journing in China, but recent unofficial iniorma-
ton indicates that what was at first regarded
as an outbreak of mob violence against for
eign ers has assumed the larger form OF an insur-
recti on against public order.
The Chinese government has declined TO re-
ceive Mr. Blair as the minister OF the United
States on the ground that, RS q participant,
while senator, in the enactment OF the existing
legislation against the introduction OF Chinese
laborers, he has become unfriendly and objec-
tionabe to China. I have felt constrained to
point out to the Chinese government the unten-
ableness Of this position. which seems to rest as
much on the unacceptability OF our legislation
as on that OF the person chosen, and which, If
admitted. would practically debar the selection
OF any representative 30 long as the existing
laws remain in force.
You will be called upon to consider the ex-
the temporary admission of some Chinese
artisans and laborers in connection with the ex-
hibit of Chinese industries at the approaching
Columbian exposition. regard it as desirable
that tie Chinese exhibit be facilitated In every

WASHINGTON. Dec. 9.-Following is the

message, which was sent to congress to-day:
To the Senate and House Of Representatives:
The reports Of the heads OF the severalexecutive
departments, required by law to be submitted
to me, which are herewith transmitted, and the
reports of the secretary OF the treasury and the
attorney general made directly to congress, fur
nish q comprehensive view of the administrative
work Of the last fiscal year relating to internal
affairs. 1t would be Of great advantage II these
reports could have an attentive perusal by
every member Of congress and by all who take
an interest in public affairs. Such a perusal
could not fail to excite a higher appreciation OF
the vast labor and conscientious efforts which
81 given to the conduct of our civil administra-
ton. l5=s
The reports will, I believe, show that every
question has been approached, considered and
decided from the standpoint Of public duty and
upon considerations affecting the public interest
alone. Again invite to every branch OF the
service the attention and scrutiny OF congress.

Several Countries Have Removed the
Embargo Upon Pork Products.
The law OF the last congress providing a sys-
tenn of inspection of our meats intended for ex-
port and clothing the president with power to
exclude foreign products from our market in
case the country sending them should perpetu-
ate unjust determinations against any product
OF the United States, placed this government in
a position to effectively urge the removal Of
such determinations against our meats.
1t is gratifying to be able to state that Ger
many, Denmark, Italy, Austria and France. in
the order named, have opened their ports to in.
Bpected American pork products. The removal
OF these restrictions in every instance was asked
for and given solely upon the ground that we
had now provided meat inspection that
should be accepted adequate to the complete
removal of the dangers, real or fancied, which
had been previously urged. The state depart
ment. our ministers abroad, and the secretary
OF agriculture have co-operated with unfaggng
and intelligent zeal for the accomplishment Of
this great result.

Advice Of the Government offered in
Hopes of Maintaining Peace.
The recent political disturbancesin the repub-
lie of Brazil have excited regret and solicitude.
The information We possessed was too meager
to enable us to form satisfactory judgment OF
the causes leading to the temporary assump-
ton OF supreme power by President Fonseca;
but this government did not fail to express to
him its anxious solicltude for the peace of Bra
I'll and for the maintenance OF the free political
institutions which had recently been established
there, nor to offer our advice that great m oder
alton should be observed in the clash Of parties
and the contest for leadership. These counsels
were received in the most friendly spirit, and
the latest Information is that constitutional
government has been re-established without
bloodshed.
