FISHERIES CONFERENCE.
Today's conference began at II
o'clock with full representation of
the British, Canadian and American
officials. For the first time the sta
tisties of the catch OF the seals in the
present ycar was available. These
We're compiled by the American of!ci-
ais, and they brought out prominent
ly two features regarded az most i'm
portant in supporting the American
contention, namely: that the catch
hud fallen OF about one half during
the present season, showing conclu-
siVely, In the opinion of the American
representatives, that the senl herds
were being rapidly wiped out and Sec
ond. that the catch of seals from the
American islands In Berlng sea was
about 10 TO ] as between the Canadian
sealers under the british flag and
American seulers. no same proper
ton was shown to exist throughout
the waters of the North Pacific.
In detail the figures for this sea-
sons catch, now made available for
the first time are as follows:
Catch of seals in the Northern Pa
cihc for the present season 3s. 700
against $4,000 last year. The total
catch this year is divided as follows;
Taken by British vessels, $4,000: by
American vessels, 400; by Japanese.
vessels, $500. The catch In Bering
sea, which Is the portion OF the North
Pacific in which the United States is
Interested Is $3.50 for the present sea-
son, agains 29.5O0 last season, u re-
duction OF about one-half. OF the
catch I'm Boring sea British vessels
took 1850, American vessels 1900. The
figures make no distinction between
British and Canadian vessels, as prac-
tically all the sealing Is done by Ca
madam vessels which, however, are
nominally classed as British.
The falling OFF of about one-half in
the total catch, both In Boring sea
and the North Pacific. is said to be
most significant under the circum-
stances. The present season is Il bet
ter one, the experts say, for taking
seals than last season. The same reeu-
lations apply this season as last I'm
der these circumstances. 1t is said that
the conclusion to be drawn from this
years figures is that the seal here has
been greatly reduced by ndscriminate
slaughter at the alarming rate of
about one-half in the last year.
