CLAIMS OF THE sEALERs.

The final defeat of the appropriation TO
pay the British government 81, 900 on ac-
count of seizures and warnings OF vessels
engaged In the fur seal traffic, is de-
served rebuff TO the president and his
Mng@unap secretary of state. Without
any authority whatever, and in defiance
OF principles established against the Unit
ell States In the Geneva arbitration Mr..
Gresham offered Sir Julian Pauncefote.
the British minister at Washington,
lump sum IA settlement of damages
claimed by Canadian poachers.
The United States seized and warned
out OF Bering sea some eighteen vessels.
but contested the claim that they were
owned by aliens. In the convention of
1882 between Secretary Blaine and the
British minister the United States denied
following the precedent of the Geneva
arbitration-its liability for constructive
or speculative damages. In the modus
siyendi 9f that year between Sir Charles
Russell and Minister Phelps the question
OF speculative damages was expressly
waived. Out OF the $4,000 claimed by
the British ambassador $500 was shown
TO be solely of this character.
Mr.. John w. Foster, one of the repre-
Ing sea commission, claimed. moreover.
that out OF the eighteen vessels which
the United States admitted to have seized
and warned. and In whose behalf claims
for damages were filed, ten belonged
wholly or in part to American citizens
sailing under the British flag for the pur-
pose of getting damages IL interfered
with. According to Mr.. Foster, out of all
the claims made on behalf of the eighteen
seized vessels only ssl.sls were probably
we'll founded.
In discussing this matter I'm the house
OF representatives Mr.. Hit OF Illinois ex-
posed the basis OF the claim made on
behalf OF Thomas III. Cooper a British
subject OF San Francisco. to the amount
or $4,000. He said that Cooper was
man OF straw. put up by an American
citizen of San Francisco. who engaged In
a scheme to destroy the seals, violate the
laws Of the land and now to deplete the
treasury. Mr.. Hit averred that out of
the whole amount claimed by Sir Julian
Iauncefote only $4,000 had not been
shown TO be owned by American citizens
hiding behind Canadian and English dunn
mics. and that the whole amount OF their
claims substantially was for seals that
they did not catch.
The matter of compensation for dam
ages viii now be referred to arbitration.
which will be somewhat expensive. But.
as was argued both In the senate and
house. by those who opposed the appro-
priation. even IL the costs be greater than
the sum Offered by Gresham II had better
be expended in securing the exclusion of
claims fof consequential and speculative
damages from payment. than by paying
money into the British treasury TO be re-
paid as rewards TO American citizens for
Incorporating under an alien flag. In or
der TO safely violate the laws OF their
country.
