Reply of tho British Premier to Assistant
Secretary Wharton's Note of March 22.
LONDON, March 28.-Lord Salisbury,
under date of March 26, has replied as
follows t. Sir Julian Pauncefote in
response to Mr.. Wharton's letter of
March %:
inst. notice has been given to owners
Of ships sailing for Behring sea that
both agreements at present under dis
cussion between Great Britain and the
United States-that as to arbitration and that
as to an intermediate arrangement-may affect
the liberty of sealing in Behring sea. They
have ALL therefore, notice Of their liability to
possible interruption and will sail subject to
that notice. The question of time Is not there
fore, urgent.
Inform the president that we concur In
thinking that when the treaty has been ratified
there will arise new state Of things Until
it is ratified our conduct is governed by the
language Of your note on the 18th OF June
1890. But when 1t is ratified each party
must admit that contingent rights have become
vested in the other, which both desire to pro-
tect. We think that the prohibition OF sealing,
il it stands alone will be unjust to British seal
ers if the decision of the arbitrators should be
adverse to the United States.
1--WE are, however, willing, when the treaty has
been ratified to agree to an arrangement sim.
liar to that OF last year II the United States
will consent that the arbitrators should in
the event OF a decision adverse to the United
States, assess the damages which the prohibi-
tion OF sealing shall have inflicted on British
sealers during the tendency of the arbitration
and in the event Of decision adverse to Great
Britain, should assess the damages which the
limitation of slaughter shall, during the
pendancy OF arbitration, have inflicted on the
United States or its leases.
LAS an alternative course are also vii.
ling after the ratification Of the treaty to pro-
hibit sealing in the disp puted waters, If YES
sells be excepted from prohibition which pro-
duce certificate that they have given security
for such damages as the arbitrators NAV
assess in case Of decision adverse
to Great Britain, the arbitrators to
receive the necessary authority on that behalf
In this case restriction of slaughter on the
islands will not in point of equality be neces-
sary. Her majesty's government is unable to
see any other than one Of the two methods of
restricting seal hunting in the disputed waters
during the arbitration which will be equitable
to both parties"

furnished by Oman that Detective
Coughlin was convicted. Coughlin the
night of May 4, 1889, hired the white
horse and buggy for ''friend." This
friend called for DR.. Cronin and told
the doctor that one of P. O'Sullivan's
