BEHRING SEA CONTROVERSY.
The Question Discussed in Cabinet
Meeting.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-The Behring
Sea controversy was the principal topic
OF discussion at to-day's Cabinet meeting.
There is no change in the situation and
none looked for until Salisbury acts on
the treaty of arbitration, draft of which,
drawn on lines understood to be equally
acceptable to both Governments, was
submitted to him this week. In order to
get the treaty before the Senate as soon as
possible, it was arranged that Lord Sails
bury should communicate his action by
cable. So tar nothing has been heard
from him. The policy of this Govern
ment with regard TO the coming sealing
season viii depend largely on the action
OF the Brush Government on the ques-
ton OF arbitration. There is scarcely
doubt, however, that an arrangement
will be made similar to last years modus
UiUendi. The President has issued proc
lamation against poaching in Behring
Sea. 1t is almost identical with the one
issued last year.
