WASHINGTON, March 2S.-Lord Sails
burys last communication TO the presi-
dent stating the grounds upon which
he would consent to renew the modus
vivendi as to Behring sea was land be-
fore the senate soon after it went into
executive session to-day.
In transmitting the paper to the SEN
ate the president added TO it letter
stating that Lord Salisbury's reply was
very satisfactory to this government,
and that it was preparing suitable re-
Spouse. The character of this response
was indicated briefly in the presidents
letter as being a substantial acceptance
Of Lord Salisbury's tender with a few
notifications that could doubtless be
arranged without difficulty.
One view put forth by Western SEN
ator has won many adherents to the
treaty. 1t was in substance that the
United States had everything to gain
and nothing to lose by the ratification
Of the treaty. Assuming the worst
possible outcome of the arbitration-a
decision against the United States on
each or all the points submitted, il was
argued that there still remained enough
Of value in the seventh article of the
treaty to warrant its ratification. That
article pledges Great Britain to coop
arate with the United States in the
protection of the seal fisheries under
regulations to be formulated by the ar
bitratOrs. So that even damages to a
considerable amount were assessed
against the United States would re-
ceive in return the assurance that the
value of the seal fisheries would be en-
HANGED 10 a much larger amount
through efficient international protec-
ton.

On account OF the prevalence OF

avoid exposure or subjecting themselves
10 sudden changes of temperature. ...
A great deal of trouble has been caused
among the citizens by the swapping and
bursting Of pipes that accompany such
cold snaps as we have just passed through.
The water works pipes are about the only

In the laying of them. .... Good coal and
wood are still the most reliable articles for
developing heat Natural gas is very fine

SENATOR SHERMAN returned to wash
ington Thursday to resume his duties in
the senate. He was congratulated on
every side over his recent victory. The
senior senator is probably the best known
to the people Of any public man in the
United States. He served through the
last days of slavery and witnessed in the
senate the terrible effort made TO gain an
extension Of territory In order to reign
supreme In this country. Time educated
the people up to the point, to see that 1t
was inhuman TO buy and sell human flesh
and the slave was set free. The next was
the civil war brought about as the result
of the existence of slavery, and after a
terrible struggle 1t ended, severing the
roots Of slavery from where it had been
planted. The next was the stormy scenes
of reconstruction during the administration
OF Andrew johnson, the money panic and
many other events Of equal Importance
that have taken place since March 4, 1855
Mr.. Sherman is in possession Of sufficient
