CHARGED With INSINCERITY
Sir JGhn Thompson CFitiGizeS BlainG'S Re-
ply 10 Lord Salisbury.

OTTAWA (Ont.), Jan. 7-C0nsiderabe In
tereSt is manifested here in the latest phase
of the Behring Sea discussion, caused 10y
the publication of Baine's reply TO Lord
Salisbury. Blaine seems to have lit upon
one or two new points, and with view 10
ascertaining their relative strength, Sir John
Thompson, Minister of Justice, was asked
for his opinion upon them. Sir John said
that in the case of the Ceylon pearl fisher
les jurisdiction was exercised by England
simply to prohibit the injurious operation oil
those fisheries by British subjects, and there
has been no attempt to exclude foreigners
from the pearl fisheries or to restrain their
operations.
'What do you think of Blaine's conten-
tion regarding St Helena?"
That" answered Sir John, "seems to be
new point raised, and takes us back to
1916 Napoleon was then confined on 81.
Helena, and Great Britan's action In eX-
Guiding vessels from waters within eight
miles OF st. Helena was measure of war,
taken in concert with the great allied pow
ers, which alone would be Interested in re-
sisting the cession of dominion, and at that
time the assertion of sovereignty by every
maritime power in seas surrounding her
possessions was vastly more common than 1t
is today 1t will be for Blaine to enforce
this contention in the face of the TACT
that Dwight Foster. who conducted the
case for the United States, before the Hall
fax Commission, made it strong point
that the pretensiOns of all maritime coun-
tries at that time could not be cited at
the present day as defining bounds of in
ternatiOnal law as regards marine juriS-
diction. Great Britain has been for years
asserting sovereignty over all the seas sur
rounding the British Islands. and she had
claimed, with acquiescence of both France
and Spain. all the bank fisheries within
sixty miles of the coast of Newfoundland
and the whole Gulf of st. Lawrence, so
that even If The question of ST. Helena were
not entirely exceptional and the result Of
compact it belonged to a period which can
not be cited as precedent in modern inter-
national law"
What do you think of the questions
which Blaine desires to submit to arbltra-
tion ?"
They are all involved in tie reference
which Lord Salisbury proposed-What were
the rights exercised by Russia in Behring
Sea? How far were they conceded by Great
Britain? Was Behring Sea included in the
Pacific Ocean? and SO on. Blaine obviously
is not sincere in his contention, because he
could have raised any of these questions on
general reference"

NEW YORK, Jan. THE Herald this
morning says: For more than twelve years
Sergius Shevltch, Russian of gentle birth
and arlstocratic education, was one Of the
most interesting figures in the Socalistic
camp Of New York. He was the editor of
the Volks Zeitung, the organ of the Social
Democracy. He was the only Socialist in
the city who could stem the rage of Herr
Most, and on several occasions talked him
to 'standstil." Shevitch was welded
to Die Rothe Grapin," the celebrated
Countess Rakowitza, with whom Ferdinand
LaSalle was in love and over whom he
fought his fatal duel, being killed by Yanj
RakOwiiZa, who afterward became her hus-
band. Some six months ago Sheyitch re-
signed his editorial emoluments ana
returned to Russia. 1t was generally
understood he had been left fortune Of
10000 ruDles, and as soon as he could con-
vert this into cash he would return to New
Y York and turn it all over to the treasury of

WASHINGTON, Jan. I'm the Senate this
morning the Idaho Senators drew ballots
for their terms of service, with the result
that Shoup secured the long term and Nc
Connell the short term.
Teller introduced numerous petitions
from colored societies urging that Lower
California be purchased as a colony for
colored Americans.
The conference report on the Public Print
ing Deficiency Bill was agreed TO.
The Financial Bill was taken up and Dam
lei spoke in favor of free coinage.
Plumb followed. He credited the Silver
Act of last session with having had the ef-
fect OF preventing q universal financial
panic. Whatever may be said about its
shortcomings, its effect on the immediate
sluauon had been OF a munl6cent char
aeter. He did not share the fears OF the
Senator from Ohio (Sherman) as to what
would happen from the free coinage of sill
yer. Perhaps he was not as sensitive ON
that point as he might have been if he had
not heard so often similar forebodings from
the same quarter that had not been realized
he plumb was not able to give his sup
port TO the bill reported by the Finance
Committee. He was opposed to the first

our trade and of honest money that the

hold that the free coinage of silver was a
panacea for all evils, but he did contend that
it was a long, wise and mueh-needed step in
the right direction.
Hiscock spoke against free coinage. The
people he represented never believed the
free coinage of silver would place that metal
on a parity with gold.
Sawyer moved an executive session.
"Oh." said EdmundS, "let US take a vote
on this bill now"
Stewart expressed the desire that an early
day be fixed for vote, say Saturday.
EdmundS, i'll a tone of bitter sarcasm,
said: The session is drawing to the END,
and this most important and immaculate bill
ought TO be got into the form of law at the
earliest possible moment. The country, of
course, is suffering for it. Disaster and
bankruptcy are said to be impending, and
therefore we ought TO leave no stone un-

AN IMPORTANT MATTER.
Request for an Appropriation for Fog Horn
on Seal Rock

WASHINGTON. Jan. Acting Secret tary
of the Treasury Nettleton to-day sent the
following communication to Congress: II
have the honor, at the instance of the Light
house Board, to ask that the following item
be inserted in the proper Appropriation Bill:
that the Lighthouse Board be authorized to
expend $1,000, or so much as necessary of
moneys already appropriated for the pur-
chase and installation of fog signal at the
lighthouse on Northwest Seal Rock, Point
st. George, California" This has become
necessary by reason of the decision of the
Commissioner of Customs, which Is, in ef-
feet, that fog signal cannot be established
without special legislative enactment. Major
Heuer's letter, dated December 18th, calling
this matter to the attention of the Light
house Board, is transmitted with Nettlet0n's
letter to Congress. Heuer says: 1.-The
funds are available for purchasing the fog
signal apparatus and no additional appro-
priatiop is necessary all that is required is
the authority of Congress to use what may
be necessary OF $1,000. the estimated cost of
the fog horn"

SCOTCH RAILWAY STRIKE.
Three Thousand Dock Laborers at Dundee
Threaten to Go Out.


GLASGOW, Jan. THE hopes of the
strikers were considerably raised to-day by
a dispatch from Dundee, that about 5000
dock laborers had agreed to go on strike if
such action on their part was found neces-
sary in order to bring about a settlement of
the railroad disputes.
John Burns, the labor agitator, addressed
a public meeting at Perth to-day. He ac-
cused leading Scotch paper of misleading
the public in regard TO the railroad strike.
He said that despite the glowing accounts
published the railway companies were in a
bad way, and if the men would remain firm
they would soon have the shareholders, as
well as the public, on their side. He also
said he intended to bring about such dead
lock of traffic on the railways that he would
compel the companies to surrender.
