Canadian Minister 81 Justice. and those who VIII
accompany him To Washington will probably not
arrive until the middle of next month The pur-
pose OF their visit. a. has been announced. is that

Sir Julian Pauncefoe, in the preparation OF treaty
looking to the forma ion Of commission to con-
alder the claims Of the Canadian seaers against the
United states under the findings OF the paris Trl-
bunal The Canadians viii take no partfn drawing
up the treaty. but IN view OF the direct interest
which Canada has In The matter IL was Thought
well by the English Government that they should
be consulted TO the phraseoogy and spirit Of the
treaty. This result could be moro cxpeditIously
gained by Sir Charles Tuppcr being In Washing
ton than II the conclusions reached were subjected
To core pondence between himself and Sir Julian.
The Canadians will remain about one week. at the
end Of which time IL IL thought the treaty will
have been agreed upon by Secretary Gresham and
the British Ambassador.
The British Government, Is still hopeful that when
Congress meets again the Appropriation OF %&J,W0
will be speedily voted TO compensate the Canadian
sealers for the losses sustained by them n not.
then the treaty viii be the Senate for rstl-
ncaton. The British Government argues that these
claims not for prospective profits and ought not
TO be so considered. The vessels. they contend,
%r seized or an o OF h S sS
for which they were adapted the result was dis
tnct loss to their owners. II Is known that the
claims originally aggregated 100000. but that agree
ably 10 an understanding between Secretary Gresh-
am and Sir Julian Il compromise on $4,000 was
reached
Some doubt is expressed here as to the correct
ness OF the report that Lord Rosebery has prom
ised that the British Government will advance this
amount TO Its Canadian subjects and look to the
United States for reimbursement. No such nfor-
nation has reached this city although II II regard
ed as not unlikely that the British Ministry may do
so. believing that when Congress meets again A
bill viii be passed making the appropriation.
