AN AGREEMENT SIGNED.
EIodus yiyondi in Relation to Behring
Sea Eisherins EanPWad.

Nodus yiyondi in Relation to Behring
Sea Fisheries Renewed.
WASHINGTON, April 18.-An agree
ment between the United States and
Great Britain for O modus vivendi in
relation to the fur seal fisheries in Behr-
ing sea for the present has been signed
by Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British
minister, representing his government,
and by James G.. Blaine, secretary Of
state, representing the United States.
This important agreement was signed
at II o'clock a. m. at the residence Of
Mr.. Blaine, who, on account of the in
clement weather, did not go to the de-
partment. He at once took it over to
the executive mansion and laid it before
the president who, in the afternoon,
transmitted it to the senate for its action.
Provisions of tho Agreement.
The modus viyendi is in the form of a
supplemental convention to the treaty
of arbitration recently negotiated and
ratified. It states that both govern
ments will prohibit during the scaling
season the killing Of seal in that part of
the Behring sea lying eastward of the
line of demarcation described in article
i of the treaty of 1867 between the
United States and Russia. The United
States is allowed to kill for the subsist-
ence of the natives on the islands of st.
Paul and St. George $500 seals-the
same restrictions as was in force last
year.
In general it may be said that the
document is renewal of the agreement
of 1891 with the addition Of clause
providing for the settlement of DAM
ages sustained by Canadian sealers
through the interruption of their bust
ness in case the arbitration is against
the United States. Under this clause
owners of Canadian sealing vessels have
already begun to file their claims with
a committee appointed to receive and
present them; but General Foster, the
agent Of the United States, who is pre-
pairing the case for this government,
and Hon. E. j. Phelps, counsel, are
leaving no point uncovered and will be
fully prepared to meet the claims on this
score in the event that they shall ever
be pressed for payment.

ALumberman's Rendezvous.

This term might be applied to Stevens
Point, located on the Wisconsin Central
Lines, at the gateway to the vast forest
region which extends north to Lake
Superior, distance of 200 miles without
break, on account of its vast lumber
interests. The Wisconsin River to
which the lumbermen have given the
familiar and somewhat affectionate title
of odd Wiscons," not alone acts rs q
lumber feeder to the city by furnishing
through its numerous tributaries an out
let for thousands of acres of pine in the
upper country, but it furnishes a water
that is second only to that of Neenah
and Menasha, which cities are also locat-
ed on the Central. Millions of feet of
lumber are cut every year, giving employ
ment to hundreds of men. In addition
to the lumber trade, it has numerous
other manufactures; 1t is where the large
car shops of the Wisconsin Central Lines
are located

ABERDEEN, Miss. April 49,. The

Late reports which have reached here
indicate that the loss By the flood will
be greater than at first estimated. From
the most reliable information to be OBJ
tanned from the flooded district it is
known that the number of lives lost
will reach $50, while all vestige Of
household property has been swept
away by the raging torrent. Relief
parties have been sent out and more
than $50 bodies have already been re.
covered. Thousands of people are rem
dered homeless and the suffering is in
tense. A relief party has rescued a
family of nine persons who had been

mouthful of food.

One of the party, a lad of ID years, had

woman and her infant was found float

without food for three days and the
babe is so emaciated that it will die.
Her family of eight children were all
drowned. The loss of property is so
great that it cannot be accurately es-
