BEHRING SEA POA CHERS.
They Propose to Fly Some Other Flag than

WASHINGTON. April 27.-Further complica-
tons in the Behring Sea affair are looked for
ward to In official circles here from the fact,
which has come to the knowledge Of the Gov
arnmeDt. that the poachers who infest that sea
threaten to fly the flag Of some country other
than that Of the United States or Great Britain
The m0dus agreed upon between the United
States and Great Britain provides that vessels
OF either country which violate this modus
may be seized and tried in tho courts of the
country to which the vessel belongs for viola

their summer campaign of poaching.
This matter has been presented to the Pres

Unless the United States and Great Britain
combine to prevent foreign poachers from en-
