OF Great Britain has uniformly Illus
trcted these precepts by example, or
whether she has not established az least
one notable precedent, which would
justify ms in making greater demands
upon Her Majesty's government touch
! ing the Behring Sea than either our
necessities or our desires have ever sug-
geSted.
II am directed by the President TO
say that on behalf OF the United States
he is willing TO adopt the text used in
the act of Parliament to exclude ships
| from lowering nearer 70 the Island of
st. Helena than eight marine leagues,
or he will take the example cited by Sir
George Baden-Powell, whereby per-
mission of Her Majesty's government
CONTROL over part of the ocean, 600
miles wide, is to-day authorized by
Australian law. The President will
ask the government Of Great Britain to
agree TO the distance of twenty marine
leagues, within which no ship shall
hover around the Islands of st. Paul and
st. George from the 18Th day of May TO
the 18th of October of each year.
''Great Britain has been informed,
advised, warned-over and over again
Of the evil effects that would flow from
her course OF action; but against testi-
mony WHICH amounts to demonstration.
she has preferred TO abide by personal
representations from Ottawa, by reports
of commissioners who examined nothing
and heard nothing, except the testimony
of those engaged in the business, against
which the United States has protested.
She will probably be convinced of the
damage If she will send an intelligent
Commissioner 10 the Pribyloff Islands"
Respecting the British proposition
looking TO arbitration, the Secretary
says: 'In the Judgment of the
President, nothing of impor-
tance would be settled by
proving that Great Britain conceded no
jurisdiction to Russia over the seal fish
cries OF the Behring Sea. II might as
well be proved that Russia conceded no
jurisdiction to Engtand over the river
Thames. by doing nothing in each case
everything is conceded. In neither case
is anything asked of the other. "Con-
cession." as used here means simply
dcQtieSccncC in the rightfulneSS OF the
title, and that is the only form OF con-
ceSsion which Russia asked Of Great
Britain, ar which Great Britain gave to
Russia"
Secretary Blaine, in conclusion, de-
MES that the United States ever claimed
Behring Sea TO be closed sea.

MRS. MAVERICK DOOMED.

Her suit to Recover Asr Husbands Life
Insurance Money Decided Against Her
The Court OF tho Opinion That Murder
Wss Committed - The Woman's Laat
Nope Of Freedom L. Gone and She Must
Die In Prison.
LONDON, July 20. - Judgment has
been given on the action brought in the
case of Mrs May brick against an insur-
ance company to recover the sum of si0.-
900 insurance upon her husbands life.
The court decided that Mrs May brick
had murdered her husband and conse-
quently she could not recover the
amount for which his life was insured,
as his death was caused by the person
for who-e benefit the policy was taken.
Mrs Mayhrick. il will be recalled, is
the American woman who a few years
ago was arrested on the charge of pois-
oning her husband, who was q we'll
known Liverpool cotton merchant The
trial developed many sensational
features and resulted in the conviction
of the accused. Mrs Maybrick was
sentenced to be hanged. but the mat
ter was laid before the home
Liberation, recommended the queen
TO commute her sentence to i'm
prisonment for life. This suit was
brought in the hope of proving that the
arsenic found in the deceased MIR.
May ybrick's stomach at the autopsy
was the result Of doses taken vol
UNFAIRLY BY himself Proof of this
would have done away with the muir
der theory and would in all probability
have resulted in the woman's release.
The decision of the court, however,
makes IL certain that she must
continue in prison for the rest
of her natural life. The uAwilliRgness
of Home Secretary Matthews to
counsel the queen to commute the
death sentence in the first place makes
IL foregone conclusion that he will
never advocate further display Of
clemency, in spite OF the popular opin-
ion that Mrs. May brick is innocent Of
the crime of murder.
