A BENEFICIAL MONOPOLY,
Mr.. Carter's Contention Before the Boring
Sea Tribunal at Paris.

Mr.. Carter's Contention Before the Boring
Sea Tribunal at Paris.
PARIS, April 21.-Mr. ]. c. Carter Of counsel
for the United States before the Boring sea
tribunal of arbitration continued his argument
today in behalf of American claims in Boring
sea. Mr.. Carter criticised the weak points
Of the case presented in behalf Of
Great Britain. He admitted that the United
States asked for monopoly Of the seals. but
monopoly, he argued, could only be injurious
when artificial prices were induced by 1t. On
the contrary. the monopoly asked for by the
United States would encourage production and
be beneficial to humanity in the same way as
the laws providing for patents and for copy
right.
Mr.. Carter proceeded to refute the British
argument that the seals devoured British fish
in the waters Of British Columbia. The fish
in those waters. Mr.. Carter said, were
the property Of the world. Mr.. Carter
quoted from the joint report Of the
commissioners Of Great Britain and the
United States appointed to investigate the con-
dition Of seal life in the North Pacific ocean to
sustain his contention that pelagic sealing was
wrong.
The United States, Mr.. Carter said. would
tolerate the immemorial rights of the Indians to
pursue the seals for their personal sustenance,
but not for commercial purposes.

Secretary Carlisle's Statement on the Gold
Situation.

Secretary Caflisle's Statement on the Gold
Situation.
NKw YoKK, April 21.-Secretary Carlisle's
statement on the gold situation was the general
topic Of conversation in Wall street this fore
noon. 1t was not favorably received. on the
ground that it was found to be indefinite
Most Of the bankers seen professsd them
selves unable to comprehend the Secretary
exact intention with reference to the treasury
notes.
Edward Simmons. president Of the Fourth
National Bank. said: Mr.. Carlisle has an
nounced no policy; his words mean nothing 60
far as any solution of the question is
concerned. If he should issue an
order to the subtreasurers to redeem
treasury notes only in silver when encroach-
ment is made on the one hundred million dol
lars reserve, holding the one hundred million
only for the redemption of greenbacks, the
government will suspend gold payments, which.
to nv mind, would be q most unfortunate pro-
ceeding.
The one hundred million dollars of gold
should be paid out IN redemption of all gov
eminent obligations and the well-estabhshed
policy of the government to redeem its obi
cations in gold should be maintained at all
hazards. When the one hundred million dollars
reserve has been reduced TO a point where the
Secretary of the Treasury would regard the
emergency sufficiently critical TO war

bonds for gold and ir this way pre-
serve the credit Of the government until
the meeting of the national legislature, at which
time the matter could be taken mp and perma-
nently disposed OF. In the meantime the sit
uation would undoubtedly improve, because
the world would know that all our obligations
we're to be redeemed in gold
President J. II. Parker of the United
States National Bank was seen at his
Office, SO Wall street. today. He said
that SO far as he was concerned it was
impossible to see what the intentions
Of Secretary Carlisle really were. On some
Of the most important points he had left
everybody completely in the dark in his
statements. For instance. in reference to a
possible supply of gold from the west the Sec
Rotary gives no inkling Of what the amount
Of that possible supply is.
Until il could be known what arrangements
were in progress and how mich gold was avail
able IN the west it was impossible to draw any
conclusions whatever from the Secretary's state
ment. So far as he saw the statement could
have very little influence on the situation in
the direction of reassuring anybody.
President George S. Coe of the American
Exchange National Bank was seen in his Office.
He did not desire to speak on the situation.
President George F. Baker Of the First Ma
honal Bank refused to venture an opinion as
to Mr.. Carlisles statement and rather seemed
to indicate that the Secretary of the Treasury
had failed to supply anything upon which an
opinion could be had

Found Drowned in the Anacostia.

This afternoon about 1:30 O'Clock q
party OF young men while fish
ing in the Anacostia near Ben
ming bridge found the body of white m an
in the water. The body was floating
with the tide. The Young man
procured a rope and towed the body back to
the bridge. The flesh had all rotted away and
the face was eaten by the fish. Several
fish were found in the body when
it was brought ashore. The man wore
pair of blue overails and pair of high top
boots. 1t is supposed that he was
either farm hand employed somewhere
near the branch or that he was gun ner from
the city. A doctor who saw the body
said it had bee in the water three or four
weeks. 1t was brought to the morgue in the
dead wagon and the coroner notified.
