BEHRING SEA DISPUTE.

One of England's Commissioners
Speaks On the Subject.
LIVERPOOL, April 6.-At a meeting
here this evening Sir George Baden- Pow
ell said that he had aTough time of it in
America, although in Lord Salisbury he
had an intellect behind him superior to
that of any man in America. MIR. Blaine
was one OF the ablest men that America
had produced. Mr.. Blaine had acted
straight in all the Behring Sea negotia-
tons, and had agreed to submit to arbi-
tration, the only disposition that could
ever erase bad blood between America
and England. Sir George thought that
the adoption of this method for the adj
justment OF the difficulty would establish
precedent for the settlement of the fish
cry disputes with other nations.
