CuAMBERLAIN ON SEALS.
lie is Disputed by Hermann Licbcs, who
Knows Whereof He spcaks.

London, Oct. 31.-Hermann Liebes of
the North American Commercial COM
pany, and one of the lessees Of the
Pribyloff islands has made statement
in refutatlon of the case put forward
by Mr., Chamberlain, secretary of state
for the colonies, In his recent dispatch
to Secretary Sherman. Mr.. Liebes
says in part:
There can be no doubt whatever
that the Pribyloff islands are leglti-
mately owned by the United States.
and the United States has an un-
doubted right to grant a lehse to the.
seal fisheries up the islands to the
highest bidder, viz, my company and
there can be no further doubt that the
United States government has an abb
solute right to permit the lessees of
the islands TO kill every seal frequent
ing the rookerles. If America were to
exercise its right to kill off all the
seals upon Pribyloff islands, the whole
seal herd would be exterminated in less
than week, and pelagic sealing In the
Boring sea would be brought to sum
mary end.
1.-THE object of America. however, is
TO preserve and not to exterminate the
driven, in self defense. to kill OFF
seal, as. under present conditions,
sealing IL not profitable. What is de-
sired by America and the lessees of
Pribylon islands Is that all parties in
terested, both in land and ocean seal
ing, without moments loss of time,
confer together, with the view of see
ing whether or not some arrangement
can he made by which by fair and
equitable terms, by both parties, the
herd can he protected. | do not myself
believe that any solution can be found
which does not include as one of Its
terms the absolute prohibition OF all
pclagic sealing This ought not to be
II difficult matter to arrange, having
regard to what / assert as an un-
doubted fact, viz, that pelagic sealing
Is not and cannot be under political
conditions profitable.
"a great deal has been said about
Russia and Japan. 1t is suggested
that, as they were not parties to the
Paris treaty and are not hound by any
regulations. and are said to be Con-
cerned only In the seal fisheries of the
western and not the eastern coast OF
the Northern Pacific, their presence AZ
any conference would be out of place
and would be only desired by Ameri-
en- to secure from these countries n
majority vote against British interests.
1.-THE whole objection to Russia and
Japan being represented at any con-
ference Is, venture to think. most
unreasonable. There is no question of
voting in the matter; the conference Is
merely held with the view of arriving.
II possible. at some solution by which
the herd shall be saved from eXtermina-
ton, but so many difficulties and de-
lays arise that / very much fear that
by the time the conference has been
held there will be no seals to confer
about"
