BEHRING SEA TROUBLE.
No Particular Change Notable In Situation
OF Affairs.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-The Behring
Sea controversy was the principal topic of
discussion at the Cabinet meeting. There
is no particular change in the situation
and none is looked for until Lord Sails
bury acts on the treaty of arbitration, a
draft of which, drawn on lines to be
equally acceptable TO both governments,
was submitted 90 him early this week.
In order to get the treaty before the
Senate as soon as possible, il was arranged
that Lord Salisbury should communicate
his action by cable. So far, however,
nothing has been heard from him on the
subject.
The policy OF this government with re-
gard to the coming sealing season will
depend largely on the action of the Brit
ish government on the question of arbi-
tration. There is scarcely doubt, how
ever, that an arrangement will be made
somewhat similar TO that of last years.
modus vivendi. While the proposed
treaty OF arbitration contemplates the
selection OF three arbitrators by the gov
ernents of France, Sweden and Italy,
those governments will not be officially
requested TO act in the matter until the
instrument shall have been ratified by
Great Britain and the United States.
Meanwhile the Behring Sea joint COM
mission continues its daily sessions at the
State department and is understood to be
making satisfactory progress towards an
agreement as TO the actual condition and
needs OF the seal fisheries.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20. An inquiry into
the immigration question was begun yes
terday by the Joint committees on immi-
grafton of the Senate and House with the
view of ascertaining facts to be used i'm
framing a more stringent immigration
law. III. j. Daley of New York, repre-
senting the American Defence Associa-
ton, with a membership OF 100000, advo-
Gated constitutional amendment pro-
viding that 30 state should grant the
right of franchise to any person not a cit
izen of the United States. He believed
that immigrants should be inspected by a
consul before they come TO this country,
and that police patrol should be estab-
lished on the Canadian border.
Lewis Schade OF this city, opposed any
considerable change in the present immi-
grafton laws on the ground that there
was already all the law needed or il were
only executed to keep out undesirable
immigration.
