Mr.. COUDERT COMPLIMENTED.

Baron DeUOuceI Thanks Him for Enliven-
ing the Debate-The Argument Fin
ished.
PAnIs, May 1o.-Mr. F. r. Coudert,
counsel for the United States, contin-
ued his argument to-day before the
Bering Sea Tribunal Of Arbitration.
MIR. Coudert related the history OF pela-
gic sealing, and showed that since the
adoption of the modus vivendi the pela-
gic sealers had increased their demands.
In concluding his speech Mr.. Coudert
further demonstrated the necessity Of
putting a stop on peiagic sealing. In
support Of his argument as to seal HE,
and the danger of It's complete eXtinc-
tion Mr.. Coudert quoted from Prof.
Huxley and other naturalists aud scien-
fists.
He contended that the modus vivendi
entered into by the United States and
Great Britain was temporary abdica-
tion of the American rights which the
United States confidently left the triou-
nal of arbitration to uphold. In deal
ing with the question OF damages, ad-
vanced by Great Britain, Mr. Coudert
said that the British claims with re-
ssect OF prospective catch were I'M
tenabe. When Mr.. Coudert had tiA-
ished his speech, Baron DeCoucel, the
President OF the tribunal said to him:
"You have captivated our attention
by a remarkable display of talent. We
have to thank you for the great ability,
liveness and humor with which you
have carried US over what would
otherwise have been rather dreary
field OF questions of fact. Allow me to
add that as a Frenchman | have been
happy to see shine out in your manner
some Of the best characteristics OF the
French nation"

Probably Pay Out IN Full.
CHICAGO, May o.-As anticipated from
the fact that a governments bank exami.
ner had practically assumed control and
that an appeal for assistance had been
refused by the Clearing House Associa-
ton, the Chemical National Bank dld
not open for business to-day. The
Chemical has the banking concessions
at the Worlds Fair grounds and has an
office in the Administration building,
Jackson Park.
The Worlds Fair branch was also
close this morning and a crowd OF anx'
ious depositors stood before the doors.
The banks capital was 81, 900, 600. It's
officers are j.. c. Curry, President; +. Z.
Veazey and A. Il. Ewing. Vice Presl-
dents.
Poor judgment In making loans and
the stringency OF the money market are
given as causes Of the failure.
The deposits amount to a trifie over
5000, 900. 1t is said that the depositors
will be paid In full. The Chemical was
not member Of the Clearing House AS

ANOTHER CONFERENCE
Held Between Minister Blount and Sec
retary Gresham.
The Former Reviews His Reports STORY Of
Bis Resignation Said to BE
Premature.

Minister Blount had another conference
with Secretary Gresham at the State De-
partment this morning in regard to Hawai-
ian affairs. 1t lasted about three hours and
was devoted almost exclusively to a review
OF the points made by Mr.. Blount in his re-
ports to the State Department. These re-
ports are very voluminous and exhaustive
and leave very little for the minister to say
to the department in addition, except In the
way OF elucidaton.
one thing that is known to have been de-
clded at the conference between the two
officials is that nothing whatever shall be
said Tor publication in regard to the result
BILE bearing on the policy Of this adminIs-
tration on the subject on the future gov
eTnment Of the Hawailn Islands. 1t was
also settled that there is no necessity for
Mr. Blount to go to Buzzard's Bay for the
purpose OF seeing the President.
MI Blount concluded his business with
the state department at todays visit and
Will leave here tomorrow morning for his
nome In Georgia. 1t is understood that his
private interests require his immediate
attention and that their condition is the
principal cause OF his returning to this
country before the conclusion of the nego-
uitions now pending with the provisional
government of Hawaii.
Report Of Resignation Premnture
1t is learned today that the report that
Minister Blount had resigned was prena-
ture. The only letter on file at the State
Department that might bear that construc-
ton Is one written by him while at Homo
lulu, saying that his private affairs in
Georgia required his immediate attention
and announcing his purpose OF returning
nome to look after them. Mr.. Blount will
probably return to Washington almost si-
multaneously with the President, about the
nrst or September, and the future course of
the government on the Hawaiian question
Will then be finally considered
The result of the negotiations for n new
treaty with Hawaii will not be known
ofncially until the President communicates
IL to the Senate In the form of a special
message. From present indications in is
not at all certain that this will be done
before the beginning Of the regular session
will be made. however to close IIp this
matter during the present session of Con-
gress If possible
