BEHRING SEA CLAIMS
Commissioners Appointed by this Gov
ernment and Great Britain


Washington. July PA further step
was taken by Great Britain and the
United States several days ago in the
matter Of a consideration Of the Brit
ish claims against this country for
seizures in previous years In Behring
Sea. The announcement was first
made in dispatches year ago that a
treaty providing for the appointment
of joint commission of two to adjust
these claims was then in process Of
construction between Secretary Olney
and the British ambassador, Sir Julian
Pauncefote.
This treaty was subsequently rati-
fed by the senate. 1t provides. in ad-
dition to one representative on the
part of each government. for a third
commissioner in the event that the
two original commissioners fail to
agree. The British government has
selected Mr.. George E. King. one Of
the justices of the supreme court Of
Canada, while the United States COM
missioner is Judge William L. Put
nam. Of the First United States Judi
cial Circuit The commissioners win
meet at Victoria. B. c., which washse-
lected because of its proximity to the
scene Of the seizures, but probably not
until next autumn.
