FROM THE SEALING GROUNDS
Revenue Cutter Grant Returns and Re-
ports the Summers Operations

Revenue Cutter Grant Returns and Re-
ports the Summers Operations.
Seattle, Wash, Sept. 30.-The United
States revenue cutter Grant has arriv-
ed here, nine days out from Ounalaska.
She is the first of the Bering sea fleet
to come from the north this season, and
reports all we'll. The revenue cutters
cruising in the North Pacific ocean and
Berfng sea were the WoIcott, Grant,
Perry, Corwin, Rush and Bear, and up
to the date of the disbanding of the
feet they have cruised 70 900 minles and
boarded sealing schooners 1872 times.
The cruisers, Satellite, Icarus and
Pheasant, Of the British navy, acted in
conjunction with the American fleet.
Seven schooners Were seized during
the summer for violating the regula-
tons of the Paris award. The James O.
Swan, Port Townsend; Jane Gray, San
Francisco; Alnoka and Viva, Victoria,
and Beatrice, Vancouver, were seized
for being in the closed area Of go miles
fromthe Pribloff islands. The Sitka of
Juneau, was seized for sealing In the
North Pacific without a license, and the
Aurora OF Victoria, for shooting seals
within Boring sea. There We're fifty
hve schoonerS engaged in sealing in
Boring sea after August 1, three quart
ers of them being British vessels. The
weather has been favorable for sealing,
but seals have been scarce and the aver
age catch has been little more than
half that of the season of 1895.
The Bear reached Point Barrow, clos
ed the relief station there and brought
away the keeper. She also brought to
Ounalaska Rev. Sheldon Jackson, and
Bishop Rowe of the Protestant Episco-
pal church, and the mate and eleven
seamen of the wrecked whaler Hidalgo,
those last named being given free trans
portation on the other cutter to Puget
Sound and San Francisco.

WASHINGTON, Feb S.-The house COM

agree Saturday upon resolution censur-
ing Ambassador Bayard for his two
speeches and adjourned after two hours
debate. The Republican members en-.
deavorcd 20 prevail upon the Democrats %
agree 20 mild expression of disapproval
but the latter maintained their position
that the matter was one which the house
has nothing to do
The committee met again in tAe after
noon and adopted by a party vote rcso-
luton censuring Ambassador Biyard for
his two speechesat Edinburg and Boston.
The resolution quotes the passages OF
these two speeches which are condemned
in its preamble, and then expresses the
sense of the house that the utterances
were improper and that Mr. Bayard is de-
serving of ccnsure therefor. IL con.
tinucs that it is improper for
our representatives abroad to con.
denim any political party or policy in
America, that such actions tend to de,
stroy their influence and impair the CON
fdence which they should always com,
mand at homo. and abroad
