argument:

If Great Britain may thus control an area of
2,70O square miles of ocean on the coast of
Scotland why may not the United States pre-
scribe the space around the Pribylof Islands
in which similar prohibitions may be en-
forced? 1t must not escape observation that
the area of water outside of the three-mile
line of Scotland, whose control is assumed by
Great Britain, is as large as would be found
inside the line drawn from Cape Cod to Port
land harbOr.

A RUINED RorHscHILD.
Attempted Suicide in Paris of ReIa-
tive of the Great Bankers.

Attempted Suicide in Paris of a ReIa-
tive of the Great Bankers.
PARIS, Jan. i0.-TSpecial. THE report of
the attempted suicide OF Gustave Roths-
child recently has been confirmed. He
had, it seems, made the most careful ar
rangements to end his life. His papers
were put in order with a careful inventory
of his property, and a schedule Of his be-
quests was made. His family were pro-
vided for and a letter was partly prepared
explaining why he no longer cared to face
the world.
He made it known that he had lost
&5, 000, 900 by specializing in London. and
in Colonel North's scheme. which had
produced the usual embarrassment. and
which also would probably bring upon
him the well known ostracism that the
Rothschilds melted out to any member of
the family whose acts tended TO lower
their credit or injure their socia! standing.
He wished TO avoid the humiliation of his
relatives IN Paris, no had been ''sat upon"
ever since he accidentally permitted a
note TO go TO protest IN Naples. The let
ter, II seems, was finished with the ex-
ception of signature. He told his servant
