LETTER TO JOHN BULL.
Mr. blaine writes Concerning tho
Behrfng Sea.

Behring Sea.
Blaine has dispa ched nnoth commu-
nication to Lord Salisbury IN regard to
the Behring SEA matter, in which he
says:
"The notifications which Lord Sails
bury suggests in the questions for arbl-
tration do not wholly meet the views
OF the President. but the President
changes the text OF the third and fifth
III such manner, it Is hoped. as will re-
suit in agreement between the two
governments. While Lord Salisbury
suggests u different mode OF procedure
from that embodied IN the sixth ques-
ton the President does not understand
him actually TO object 10 the question.
and lie therefore assumes that II is
agreed.
The six questions as now proposed
by the President are as follows:
/. What exclusive jurisdiction in the
sea now known as the Behring sea.
and What exclusive rights in the seal
fisheries therein, did Russia assert and
exercise prior and up to the time Of
the cession OF Alaska to the United
States:
-. How far were these claims Of
jurisdiction as TO the seal fisheries
Britain?
80. Was the body OF water known as
the Behring sea included in the phrase
Pacific ocean as used in the treaty OF
1925 between Great Brtain and Rus
sia, and what rights. il any, in the
Behring sea. were held and exclusively
exercised oy Russia after SAID treaty!
"a. Did not all the rights of Russia
as to jurisdiction and as TO the seal
fisheries in BehrIng sea east Of the
water boundaries described in the
treaty between the United States and
Russia OF March 30. 1867, pass unim-
paired 10 the United States after that
treaty?
70. Has the United States any right,
and, If so, what right OF pr. rejection or
property in the fur seals frequenting
the islands OF the United States in Ber-
ing sea when such seals are found out
side the ordinary tlrce-mile limit.
IS. IL the determination OF the fore
going questions shall leave the subject
in such position that the concurrence
of Great Britain is necessary in pre-
scribing regulations for the killing Of
the fur seal in any part Of the waters
OF Behrng sea. then it shall beifurther
determined ~ how far, if ut all, out
side the ordinary territorial limits it is
necessary that the United States should
exercise an exclusive jurisdiction
in order to protect the seal for
the time living upon the islands
OF the United States and feeding
therefrom? CO Whether II closed season,
during which the killing OF seals in the
waters of Behrng sea outside the ordi-
nary territorial limits shall be prohibit
ed, is necessary TO save the seal-lishing
industry, so valuable and important TO
mankini, from deterioration or
destruction? and. if so ,3), what months
or parts OF months should be included
in such season and over what waters
should il extend

He came 10 New York ut once to loo k

precaution TO watch him rather closely.

A GREAT SOCIAL FURRY.

The HERALD's Letter BagJcwould in
dicate that there is an unusual interest
in the Fleming case. In pursuance OF
our uniform policy of giving all parties
a hearing on questions of this kind, we
print number of comments on the es-
pecially peculiar features of this episode.
Our own opinion we keep to ourselves.
We would just remind ''all the world
and the rest of mankind, however, that
the word of neither man nor woman is
to be implicitly accepted In matters OF
such delicacy, the details of which can
only be known to two people, in most
cases. The inspired word acquaints us
with one instance, namely, the story
of Potiphar's wife and Joseph, which
would lead most people to distrust a
woman's uncorroborated tale. In that
case, whose authenticity is as undoubted
as the story of Jonah and the whale,
more or less, in the elastic phraseology
of the law, Potiphar's wife lavished the
wealth of her yearning affections on old
Jacobs pet boy; and, finding they were
not requited, she forthwith proceeded to
prove that hell hath no fury like wo-
man scorned; and, instanter, she lied
about Joe, proving to him that if he had
entertained any dreams of comfort in
this work-a-day world it was mot for
Joseph, oh no! nop' The only thing
that rehabilitated the hero of the coat
OF many colors was the special inter
position of Providence, which, we
are inclined to think, will not hap
pen in the case of Fleming, who,
in addition to being clergyman, ap-
pears also to have been newspaper
man in his time. There is malign
occultation aboutsthese two professions
that has the force of dynamite and
melinite combined, with dash of
illuminate OF mercury thrown in, to give
energy to the explosive effects. We pity
Fleming, but we are afraid his goose is
cooked. 1t pains us to be obliged to
chronicle the fact that, since the trial,
there has been a quite general discharge
of servant girls in Los Angeles, to the
inferential benefit of the heather Chinee.
The husbands of the Angelic City, to
some extent, have concluded that dis
cretion is the better part of valor.

THE failure of the keystone National
bank OF Philadelphia threatens to have
far-reaching consequences. In the city
of Brotherly Love there is widespread
opinion that the officers of the national
government, and particularly the bank
examiner, were used to enable wealthy
persons to get clear of any loss from that
defunct institution. 1t looks as If those
officials knew that the bank was rotten
two months before 1t was so declared to
be-. Rumor even connects Postmaster
General Wanamaker with this peculiar
transaction. That he has had large
dealings with the bank is admitted on
all hands. Even the suspicion OF such
collusion on the part of member OF the
cabinet would wreck any ministry in
France or England.

TUESDAY. JUNE 8, 1891.
THE poMINroN,s LOSS.

The death OF Sir John Mac Oonald mas
happened at juncture whe the affairs
of the Dominion are most in need of the
clear counsel and the resolute direction
of that great statesman. There is no
public man in Canada who can fill his
place. While Sir John was the most de-
voted loyalist, and believed implicitly
in the subsection of the colony to the
British crown, yet he was the only man
who could marshal the diverse and an
tagonistic forces of the Dominion into
anything like harmony. By his great
personal magnetism and his wonderful
powers of persuasion, he adjusted and
reconciled differences between elements
the most opposed to each other. No
one but he could have snatched victory
out of the portents of defeat that
ushered in the last general cleo
ton. The Liberals had the argu-
ment and the damaging facts against
his party and his administration, but
by his energy and ability and his per-
sonal prestige, he overcame the opposi-
ton and returned conservative major
ity to the Dominion parliament. This
is a. victory that none but Sir John
could have achieved.
Whoever succeeds this very able man
will be confronted with a growing deter
mination on the part of the people OF
Canada to lay the approaches that will
lead to a political union with the
United States. This is the inevitable
tendency of public opinion, based upon
the fact that Canadian interests can
only be promoted by such union. The
people of the Dominion know that the
United States could concede no reciproc-
ity that would be of any value to them
that would not be detrimental to our
own interests. Canada has nothing to
give us in exchange for free commercial
intercourse; and without that inter-
course the trade and industries of our
neighbor must languish.
Besides the consideration of self-in-
terest, Canada has not acted towards
us in the past in manner to make us
feel like being liberal in our concessions
to her. She has played very paltry
part against us in the matter of the
fisheries, and she has shown active hos
tility to us in the negotiations between
the United States and Great Britain in
the seal question. Indeed, she has at
all times exhibited 80 set an animosity
towards us that we doubt very much
whether we want any political union
with her. If the political union so much
spoken of means annexation, we should
certainly hesitate long about accept
ing it.
Let us see what annexation would
mean. 1t would mean the incorpora-
tion into our system of two warning and
antagonistic acknowledgements not
only divided politically, but fanatically
v,1a'i in religion and in race. 1t would
as i to our advantage to have the
}rang riots and the traditional Anglo.
ais the French "habitans" occur

ga part of our union. There are
