sum OF 500. 900 20 pay for the Canadian
sealing vessels that were seized in Be
ring sea by the United States WIZ I'M
doubleday meet with decided opposition
when the attempt is made to pass a
bill to that effect.
Senator Morgan. who Is chairman OF
the senate committee on foreign rela-
tons TO which this recommendation
must go. is also a member OF the Boring
sea arbitration committee. II Is known
that the senator is indignant at the
large amount recommended. The whole
subject matter was carefully gone over
at the Bsring sea arbitration, and II
was demonstrated 60 the satisfaction Of
the United States representatives that
the seized vessels We're not worth, at a
liberal estimate. over 100000.
It is alleged that Mr.. Gresham derived
whatever knowledge he has on the SUBJ
Ject from Canadian officials and attor-
neys and agents OF the sealers. The
prediction Is freely made that congress
will appropriate no such Sum.
