MIR. ]. IL. Leibes, the expert on
sealing OF the American Commercial
company has sent the Hon. J. w.
Foster, the United States sealing
report made to the British COVER ment
by Prof. Thompson. Mr.. Leibes says:
"Prof. Thompson 10 doing every
thing 10 his power to assist In the de-
slructlon of the few seals still remain
Ing on the seal isla de. Had he been
the paid attorney for the Canadian
sealers he could do no more than he
did In shading all the material facts.
His entire report IL written In favor OF
the few firms which are now so largely
engaged In the pelagic sealing busi-
ness. He quotes from the American
reports whenever It cults his purpose
and calls them correct, but oontrauicts
all former American statements, W hen
not favorable TO his ews."
Referring to Professor Thompson's
statements that the 10000 male ssals
taken this year could have been taken
as easily ~ 100000 could have been
taken twenty years ago, ne points out
that the entire male catch on both seal
Islands for the lsst seven years
amounted to only ITO, 432, while the
total humber OF seals taken was $780,
600.
Mr.. Leibes se,erts that he can give
satisfactory proof that So per cent OF the
aeals taken are females.
He declares that President Thomp.
son secured from Z. M. Simpson &
company figures which were 30
strongly In support Of the American
contention that he suppressed them.
Most OF the natives testified that the
dead iups found In such large nu M
hers died because their mothers had
been killed by the traiers, but this
subject he avers the report touched on
very lightly, although admitting that
nall OF them tieu from that cause.
The statement that many pups are
killed by bullets, drowned In the surf
or smoihered In the sand he CONTRA
diets and he epuvrsee tho contention
OF Prof. Jordan who made the investi-
gallon for the American government,
