TO PROTECT THE SEALS.
A Naval Force Will Sail in Good
Season
TO CONTROL NORTHERN WATERS
The Secretaries OF the Navy and the
Treasury Are Busy with the Necessary
Preparations - Diplomatic Trihing
Must Stop, for 1t Is Time for Action.
fnY LEASED WIRE TO THE SEwsl

WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 2i.-While
the instructions to the commanding Off
GERS of the naval and revenue vessels
which are to be assigned to the duty of
protecting the sealing grounds during the
coming season are not yet wholly com
plete, il is settled that they will differ
from those of last year in the most inn
portant particulars. Last year the opera
tions of these vessels were confined to
Behring Sea: 1t is now proposed however
TO extend them also 10 waters within the
three mile limit along the entire Alaska
coast.
The Secretaries Of the Navy and Treas
ury have betn directed TO take the neces-
sary steps to despatch a sufficient naval
force not only to police. but 10 control
these waters against all commerce. The
members of the Foreign Affairs Commit
tee are of the opinion that the decisive
stand taken by the President will have the
effect of letting the English Government
aud British subjects understand that this
diplomatic trifiing must stop, and that a
final solution of the controversy must be
had without further delay.

ESPECIAL CABLE TO THE NEWS,


LONDON, March A.-The Graphic says
this morning on the Behring Sea question,
"The dispatch of portion of the Pacific
squadron northward, shows that Lord
Salisbury is not disposed to receae from
his position. Happily there is plenty of
time for further negotiations. President
Harrison has apparently taken Lord
Salisbrry's compliances for irresolu-
tion, hence his staggering attitude
The Post says, 1T is impossible to be-
lieve that when the glamour of the elec-
tions is removed from the eyes OF Ameri-
can statesmen they can fail To recognize
the inherent fairness of Lord Salisbury s
proposition. So small matter cannot
produce serious friction between two such
great nations allied by blood.
The daily Nelcs says: If the statemen
and diplomas on both sides do not soon
find some modus virendi, the arbitration
will be no more than one of those good in
tentions certain place is paved with. As
appearances go, President Harrison will
not necessarily score at all points"
The Chronicle says: The Behring Sea
case looks like a dangerous deadlock"
The Telegraph says: 1--WE hesitate to
classify the news as alarming, but il is
certainly troublesome and disquieting."

goods to-day as the entire country did
thirty years ago. What brought this pros

tariff, under which this country prospers
as no other country under the sun does.

East, we will give you free wool TO the
wool growers of the West they say, we
will give you free woolens They say that
the deficit made by taken the duty off wool
will be made by the increased woolen i'm
portations. Gentlemen, IL would take
$4,000, 900 worth OF woolen goods in addi-
ton TO our present imports to make up
this deficit.
This means the taking of si5,000,0 900 to
$40 900 in wages from our woollen
operatives, a market for 256. 000, 900 ounds
of wool (the amount required TO make up

farmers, besides millions of dollars from
our manufacturers. This is the inevit-
