AN ENGLISH VIEW.

One Of Great Hritain's Bering Sea Com
missioners Interviewed.
NEW YORK, March 9.-Sir George
Baden-P Powell, of England, member Of
the Bering sea commission, in an inter-
view said he could not see the faintest
speck of war on the international hori-
zon. The commission in, Washington
was secret in nature and could not be
discussed. Certainly Lord Salisbury
refuses to renew the modus vivendi of
last year, because the same conditions
do not exist. Modus vivendi in this
ease is mere phrase and means moth
ing. 1t is totally out of place in the
present instance and is used to make a
point. do not mind saying that the
work Of the commission is progressing
favorably.
The commissioner emphasized the
fact that the published reports Of what
had been done in the seal question were
totally at variance with the truth and
calculated to mislead the public. He
said that the ministry had practically
approved the plan to submit the ques-
ton to arbitration. He did not think
the seals were diminishing in number
as fast as many imagined.

President Kindelan of the Tariff Re-
form club of this town is out for fusion
in letter to the Sioux Falls Gazette. in
which he gives his views as follows:
There seems to be great many large
sized takers, who of late are continu-
ally advocating fusion of Democrats
and Independents as means of knock
ing out the Republican party. But as
near as can find out the strongest ad-
vocates of fusion are Alliance men who
gathered in so much profit two years
ago and gave nothing in return to the
Democrats who helped them. i \
1 favor fusion with the political party
who will rip up their tickets and give
us place on it for the greatest number
of good Democrats. l don't care
whether they be Independents or Re-
publicans so long as our Democratic
minority elects good share of the off
GERS or at least ashare proportionate to
our numbers.
Now that is good, honest, square -toed
Democratic doctrine. Anything to get
there. David Bennett Hill could not
have mapped out a more taking platform.

SENT TO. THE SENATE.
The President Transmits the Arbitra.
tion Treaty with Great
Britain.
No Recommendations Accompany the
Document "A Cabinet
Meeting,
At Which the Behring Sea Question Is
Discussed, But NO Action
Taken. -

WASHINGTON, March "a message
from the president transmitting the re-
Gently negotiated treaty Of arbitration
relative to the Behring sea. fisheries has
been laid before the senate. 1t is un-
accompanied by any recommendation.
There was also laid before the senate
message relating to the indemnity
claims of the Venezuelan Steamship
company.
The meeting of the cabinet was de-
voted almost entirely to the considera-,
ton Of. the Behring sea question with
view Of deciding on plan of action in
case Great Britain adheres to its refusal
to renew for the present season, pend
ing arbitration, the modus vivendi of
last year. There was smaller attend.
ance than usual, owing to the illness of
Secretary Blaine and the absence from
the city of Secretaries Foster and Noble.
While the matter was thoroughly dis
eussed it is understood tnat no definite
plan of action was determined upon. It
is said that action was postponed until
the next meeting in the hope that the
cabinet would then have the benefit of
Mr.. Blxine's counsel.

request Of Mary Nevins that he mako

that he should have adopted this course,
and must have imagined that when he
opened his mouth the enemy would
take fright and hunt for convenient

violations of the law are. more general

Large shippers are favored against the
small ones al all commercial centers,

that the law is not only = dead letter

situation is not so bad as it is painted.
AS rule, of course, the officials Of rail

legalize pooling, and yet every one OF

STRANGE FREAKS OF CAPITALISTS.
New York is the only city in the world
where capitalists annually spend thousands
OF dollars in efforts to obtain legislation and
franchises that will enable them to invest
millions in enterprises that won't pay.
The great Brooklyn bridge has never
been a paying investment to the two cities
except in an indirect way. The tolls, In
fact, do not pay expenses, yet bills are now
pending in the state Legislature to allow the
construction of three more bridges across
the East river, two across the Hudson
river, and one tunnel under the East river.
A tunuel under Hudson river is now near
ing completion.
The companies proposing TO build these
bridges have already incurred large
amount Of expense in the preli nlnary work
Of organization, and IL the structures are
ever completed it would probably be
twenty-five years before any Of them would

Death Of George Sctley.

George Setley died at the homo of his
son S. J. Setley, in Tionesta Borough, at
o'clock Tuesday morning, January 10,
1892, aged SO years and months.
The deceased was born in Oakland
Township, Venango County, Pa, October,
1903. He was a son of Jacob and Christine
Setley. His father was a farmer and on
the farm he was reared until he attained
his majority. He received as good an ed
ucation as the common schools of his
boyhood days afforded. In 1854 he came
TO Tionesta Township Chen in Venango
County, and settled on what has since
been known as the Setley Farm, on Hun
ter Run. There he resided until 1866.
when he removed to West Middlesex, in
Mercer County. He lived there until

home in Forest County with his sons, S.
j., and w. S. Setley. Four children sur
vive him. s. j., and w. S. Setley of Tio-
nesta Borough, Mrs. r. A. Mcintyre of
Franklin, Pa, and Mrs. John Godfrey of
Middlesex, Pa. The deceased, until not
many months before his death, had good
use of all his bodily faculties. lie was
well preserved for man of his years. He
had been ill about week previous to his
death. He was converted in the NJ. f..
Church when Is years of age, and from
that time until his death, was a firm be-
lever in the doctrines of that body. I'm
til he went from Forest County to Middle
sex he was a member of the NJ. E. Church.
After going there he united with the Pres
byterian Church for reasons of a local
character. Seventy years of the ss he
lived he spent on the shores of time pre-
pairing for the world to come, and those
that remain, while they sorrow, yet know
that through the everlasting gates he has
passed into the eternal home to go out no
more forever.
At o'clock this afternoon funeral SER
vices ill be held at the house. Then the
