xation OF supreme iol-e with grand
lodges by states.

CALLED DICK DOWN.
SIR Richard Webster sharply Rsbuked
mt Paris.

hstc"ofu suNPty heuuhcu
at Paris.
PARIs, June O.-Upon resumpiion of
the sitting OF the Behring sea tribunal II
arbitration to-day. Sir Richard Wooster,
counsel for Great Britain. continued his
argument in support of the British case.
The proceedings were temporarily en-.
livened by the intervention of Baron de
Courcei, president of the tribunal. who
took exception to q statement by Sir
Richard and who took opportunity to in
struct Sir Richard that tho tribunal knew
its duties and powers. and could not al
low him TO mako statements leading To
the inference that Great Britain would
perhaps not abide by the decision of the
tribunal.
Sir Richard devoted a part of his
speech to a reinlictment of tho
management or mismanagcment of
the PribyloR islands both by the local
United States authorities AMI by the
agents of tho Alaska Commercial COM
pany. prior to 1881. These persons had,
for obvious reasons. Sir Richard declared,
concealed the real state Of affairs from
the a,nhoritics at Washington. In tho
course of his remarks Sir Richard mann
tanned that both Great Britain and the
United States werc under moral obliga.
| tions to sanction by legislation whatever
regulations as to tho seal fisheries the
tribunal might adopt but. ho added, this
obligation is not legally binding.
When Sir Richard made this state.
ment, Baron dc Courccl interrupted
him before he could proceed further aud,
in a sharp tone, said to him, IL canno, al.
low you 10 say that before us. We arc
conducting serious business. Neither
country, party tu this arbitration. can
break it's word and reject the award made
by this tribunal"
Sir Richard was a little taken aback by
the sharpness of the presidents tone. and
hastcncd TO explain that moral obliga,
ton is as binding as legal one.
In concluding, Sir Richard said that il
must be left to each party TO the arbitra.
tion TO take measures TO enforce the regll.
lations enacted by the tribunal.
Hon. c. II. Upper, Canadian minisie,
of marine. and the British agent. fol
lowed Sir Richard Webster. He read q
| statement Of the facts regarding the selz
ure by the United States of sealing yes
sells on which both Great Britain aud the
United States had agreed that it wa,
needless for the arbitraiors 10 render an,
decision.

JOSEPH BLOCH,
Corner Of Main and Bellevue Streets

The consensus of opinion in Washing
ton is that Mr.. Cleveland will call aneS-
ira session of Congress soon after his in
auguration. The demand for an extra
session has been growing, owing to the
fact that the leaders of tho Democratic
party are beginning to hear from the
people who want speedy relief from the
taxes which the Republicans have i'm
posed on them in the interest of the pro-
tected manufacturers. The people de-
clared against the protective tariff in
1890 and again in 1892, and Mr. Cleve-
land no don bt fully appreciates the fact
that their wishes must be obeyed.-N.
