THE BERING SEA CONTROVERSY.
Indications That the Modus vivendi Will
BE Renewed.

AHaI the Nltenui w
BE Renewed.
SAN Francisco, March 1.-THE United
States cruiser Charleston came down from
Mare island today and put to sea at once
without stopping. Her destination is not
known positively, but it is belived she has
gone to San Diego to await orders for Ber-
ing sea.
WASHINGTON CRY, March 14.-The edi-
torial in the London Times of March . on
the Bering sea question has created con-
siderable excitement at the state depart
ment. The article is based on the news
published in London of the decision of
the supreme court in the Sayward case
and the signature of the Bering sea arbi-
tration treaty. In the editorial the
following language Is used: sit is
understood that as the award can
not be given before the opening of the
next sealing season. it will be necessary
to renew the modus vivendi another year"
This declaration was made one day after
Lord Salisbury had, through the British
minister in this city, notified Secretary
Blaine that the modus vivendi would not
be renewed. but before that fact was made
public.
The Senate in executive session today
spent an hour in discussion of the Bering
sea question. The matter came before the
Senate in the shape of message from the
president in reply to a resolution request
ing further information as TO the effect of
pelagic sealing. The president sent ex-
tracts from the official reports
of the Bering sea commissioners,
showing that, contrary to Lord
Salisbury's statement, the British
commissioners had conceded that tie seals
had diminished in number by the hand of
man, which of course meant largely
through the acts of poachers in killing
seals at sea. The message was laid before
the Senate, and Sherman moved its refer
ence to the committee on foreign rela-
tions, but the senators wished to hear
the extracts inclosed by the president,
and defeated the motion. The message
was read in full, and then followed de-
bate very similar in character to those
which occurred last week. A point of
difference was to be seen in the strength
shown by the sentiment favorable to- pro-
lection of the claimed rights of the United
States in Bering sea by all the resources of
the government, pending arbitration. Short
speeches were made by Sherman, Butler
and Morgan, of the committee on foreign
relations, and by Platt, White and others.
The papers were referred to the committee
on foreign relations.
The United States steamer Thetis, which
has been surveying off the coast of Lower
California, has arrived at San Diego and
will be ordered to San Francisco, to be
fitted out for service in Bering sea.

Charges Against the Finance Minister
by Hon. Beavep, Who Ketracts.-

VICTORIA, b. c., March 14.-In the pro-
vincial legislature on Friday evening dur
ing the course of the debate on the bud
get, Hon. Robert Beaven, leader of OPP
position, charged that some of the pro-
ceeds of the loan of 10000 sterling
floated in England last summer had gone
into the pockets of the finance minister,
Hon. j. II. Turner or his partners. A hot
debate ensued. which the speaker closed
by declaring it out of order.
When the House met this afternoon Mr..
Turner Immediately brought the matter
up as a question of privilege, declaring
that if such statements were allowed to go
abroad uncontradicted, not only his own
reputation would be injared, but the credit
of the province at home and abroad would
be seriously impaired.
After an exceedingly bitter and acri-
monious debate lasting tour hours, Hon.
Beaven apologized and said that if he had
used the language attributed to him he
was sorry for it and regretted exceedingly
that any language of his should impugn
the wellknown integrity and honor of the
finance minister.

ready to take it up and pass it. / conside. this
proceeding childish. l consent that the motion
ior reconsideration be carried and the bill re-

Senator Allen retorted:
am very much surprised that the senator
from Oregon secs fit upon the floor of the Sem
ate to say that this action is childish and if this
proceeding, in the opinion OF the senator from
oregon, is childish, must object to any such
treatment as coming from the senators of other
states. We have equal rights upon the floor,
and object to having our conduct branded as
childish.
When Allen completed his remarks the
motion 10 reconsider and recommit the
bill to the commerce committee was
adopted.

How to Beat the sfonopoiists at rheI,

How to Beat the nfonopoiists at Their
Own Game.
Here Is q new way for Americans to
circumvent the Mckinley bill, so that
they may participate in the blessings
(relatiye) that this measure showers
upon foreigners. II is well known that
hundreds of American made goods, such
as agricultural implements, sewing ma
chimes, table cutlery, saws, typewriters.
cartridges, etc, arc sold cheaper to for
eigners than to Americans. The manu-
facturers here form n trust or have a
monopoly, and they ix prices to make as
much profit as possible by taking advan-
tage of tariffs which prevent foreign
competitions. Now when, as often hap
pens, they can afford to sell in the nm
protected markets of the world they
lower their prices for export to this
point and rely upon the tariff laws to
prevent Americans from getting the
benefit of these lower prices by reim-
porting the goods. Up to date the man
ufacturers have had uniform success.
but their scheme has recently received
q severe shock, and unless they change
their methods somewhat Americans may
in some cases be cursed by prices as low
as those which disgrace Europe.
An American lady of moderate means
was visiting relatives in Europe this sum-
mer. She had heard that American sew
ing machines We're sold cheaper there
than here. and she concluded TO bring
one back with her If she could escape the
duty on it and save enough, after paying
freight, to pay her for the trouble of
carrying it. She saw the foreign agent
of the machine she wished, and found
that she could save about 20 per cent.
by purchasing there and that she could
escape the duty by calling herself a
seamstress. She was arranging with
the agent when he suggested that as
she was going to New York, where he
got the machines, It would save trouble
and expense all around If she would ac-
cept his order on the New York hou-e
for machine-which she could have at
export prices, though she need not ex-
port it or take any false oaths in regard
to it. The plan worked successfully,
and is likely to be repeated and extend
ed to typewriters and other articles if
the manufacturers do not put a stop to
these anti-McKinlcy demonstration of
their foreign agents.

By all means keep Mckinley on the

few theoretical reasonerB who think the
thing can't be done and some super
critical moralizers who think that IL Il
could be done It would be unjust. They
should all be put to fight, and McKin-
ley is the boy that can shoe them with
his invincible oratory. His speeches
come high this year, but II the Repub-
hcans can't afford to keep him in the
field the Democrats ought to give assist
ance-they could find no better invest
ment. Mckinley draws great crowds
and always leaves them intensely inter-
ested IN protection, SO much SO that
there is great demand for tariff reform
speakers wherever he has presented the
details Of his process OF bleeding the
foreigner. He made the students at
Ann Arbor, Mich. SO 'stired" that they
could only get relief by listening TO 4

now the farmers and voters around
