was for higher grade of education, and
when this is reached the American Medi-
cal Association should congratulate itself
upon having achieved one of its objects.
But though moral suasion, not coercion,
was the principal action, yet the time is
coming when legislative power should be
given this body, by which it might act
with authority for the whole profession
of the United States. Let us ask those
members who sulked away from us to
come back: that harmony and peace
should be the rule. Without exception
the result of the American Medical Col
lege Association ought in every way to be

that constitution ought TO have its mem
bers declared eligible to the American

THE SEAL QUESTION.
President Harrison Plays an Actfv,
Part in the Negotiations.

President Harrison Plays an Active
Part in the Negotiations.
New YORK, May 5.-The HeraJPs
Washington correspondent says: 81 am
informed that Secretary Blaine's proposal
for the total suppression of seal catching
within the Behring Sea will be formally
communicated to Minister Pauncefote to-
day, or by Wednesday at the least. Not
the least interesting circumstance con-
nected with this new departure ir our
Behring Sea policy is the direct and active
part played in it by President Harrison.
Notwithstanding his temporary absence
from Washington, am assured that it is
due to the Presidents decisive judgment
and instructions that the British Govern
ment is now to be invited to join with the
United States in stopping the further kill
ing of fur-seals in the waters and islands
of the Behring Sea upon terms equally
fair to both parties.
been anticipated that the lessees of the
Pribylov Islands have made all their ar
rangementS Tor a busy season of seal
slaughter. Their vessels have been sup
piled and working force was all ready
to start from San Francisco. The Treas
ury agent who was to supervise and tally
their catch of sealskins had been desiG-
Eastern station to San Francisco, to take
passage for the islands.
THE fact that President Harrison is
determined to face all that loss and ac-
companying disappointment and incon-
venience indicates the serious view he
takes of the consequences of an unsettled
policy and the unrestricted pursuit of
seals in the Behring Sea this year. The
losses and disappointments to owners,
OutfitterS and crews of Sailin0 vessels af
British Columbia will also be severe, if
Lord Salisbury should decide to meet the
President halfway, by the temporary
prohibition of seal-fshing in Behring Sea,
1t is not expected here that the Govern
ment of Canada will acquiesce without at
least mild protest on behalf of its Pa
citic Coast citizens in this sudden and
much-delayed measure by the Washing
ton authorities. Notwithstanding this
and other formidable obstacles to the
Presidents new project, the utmost con-
fidence is expressed by the members of
the Administration here that the project
will be realized and that an entire season
of recuperation will be secured to the
seals, so lately menaced by the approach
ing slaughter of probably 100000 of their
number within the next three months"
TUPPER MAKES A STATEMENT.
OTTAWA (Ontario), May 5.-Minister Of
Marine Tupper has denied that he made
the statement that the United States
Government has intimated that there
would be no interference on the part of
American cruisers with British Columbia
sealers in Behring Sea this season. He
also stated that the Dominion Govern
ment has given no assurance to owners
of the sealing fleet that their vessels
would not be molested, as no such assur-
ance has been asked for.

MEDICAL ASSOCIATION.
Physicians Should Recognize No &c
orraphicaI boundary limos

Physicians Should Recognize No Geo
graphical boundary Lines.
WASHINGTON, May 5.-The American
Medical Association was called to order
this morning by DR.. Patterson of Wash
ington, the Chairman of the Committee
of Local Arrangements. President DIR.
Briggs of Nashville, Tenn, delivered the
address.
In substance he said: physicians
should recognize no geographical bound
airy lines. The good of the human race
was the object of all physicians of the
American Medical Association. Beyond
uniting the physicians of the country. the
association helped to spread the knowl-
edge throughout all the world. 1t gave
the medical world esprit de corps in its
code of ethics, which is the golden rule of
medicine. Two great objects were con-
tinuously before the association-to en-
courage instruction in medicine and to
elevate the standard of medical education
and medical men. The great cry now
