Fears OF Collisions Between Our Cutters
and British War Vessels.

Fears OF Collisions Between Our Cutters
and British War Vessels.
WASHINGTON, May 1s.-Apprehension is ex-
pressed by high officials over the Bchring Sea
situation his year. and fear Of open collision be-
tween United States revenue cutters and British
sealing vessels and men-of-war are entertained.
Under article of the Paris Tribunal sealing by
vessels within zone Of sixty miles around the
Pribylov Islands was prohibited. This article
was very generally observed last year. Article
9 of the same agreement provides that no sealing
should take place between May l and July 81
north of the 35th degree of latitude and east
ward Of the 1s0th degree of longitude. This
article. 1t is said, was repeatedly violated. and
several seizures were made In consequence.
Another regulation or article In force last year
provided that vessels destined for a sealing voy-
age in Japanese waters should have their seal
ing equipment under decks and sealed while
passing through that part of Behring Sea de-
scribed in article g. This was to prevent pelagc
sealing en- route to Japan. As already stated In
these dispatches. this regulation will not be en-
forced this year by the British Government
the S425, 900 promised to Canadian vessels as
indemnity for Illegal seizures was not appropri-
ated by the United States Congress.
The fleet of United States revenue marine
vessels, under command of Capt Hooper, 1t Ia
understood, have been instructed that the
United States regards the regulation AS to yes
sells passing through the gap as described by
and they are ordered to seize all vessels which
violate II. 1t 10 here whore the COLLISION be-
tween the two countries may occur unless Great
Britain rccedes from the position 1t has taken.
