Tle Behring Sea Question Win Be

Lord SaIisbury's Answer Deemed SufH-
GENTLY Amicable to Avert the Trouble
Senators Are Ready to Rat
ify the Treaty.
THE FEELING AT WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, March 20 The Behr-
ing sea war clouds have rolled by and
the outlook is once more peaceful
Salisbury's concliatory note has done
il. The president sent TO the senate
Monday afternoon the reply received
from the British premier and also his
answer to it.
The presidents answer expressed
the qualification the administration
felt that Great Britain was willing,
after the ratification Of the treaty, to
agree TO an arrangement similar tn
that of last year. lie was not able to
concur entirely as to the condi-
tional or consequential damages laid
down by Lord Salisbury, but he had no
doubt that the points OF difference on
this point could be settled satisfactor-
lily. The intimation was clear that the
executive felt that the senate could
now safely ratify the treaty indepen-
dent Of any proviso regarding the modus
vivendi. If it desires to pass a declara-
tory resolution showing the sentiment
of the senate regarding the measures
for preserving the seals pending arbi-
tration that may be done independent
ly of the treaty
The senate spent three hours in ex-
ecutive session talking ON the subject,
but did not come to direct
vote on ratification This, however,
wds because so many senators
wanted to discuss the matter
and not from any opposition to
the treaty There is little doubt
that vote will be reached and the
treaty ratified to-day The senate dis
cussion went pretty deeply into the
whole question of damages. sherman,
Morgan, George Bate and other south
ern senator's did most Of the talking
The prevailing opinion among the
senators was that Lord Salisbury's re
ply is satisfactory. 1t shows great
advance over his former communica-
tious. Some of the features of the re-
ply are still thoIght too indefinite, yet
in its main propositions itcones nearer
to conceding the demands of the
United States than any thing that has
heretofore come from the British for
eign Office
