Pelagic Sealing Bill Passes After 1
Wnrm Debate.


Warm Debate.
If the Senate coucurs in the vote taken by
the House yesterday there will be no more
pelagic sealingin the Behnng Sea andNort h
Pacific Ocean by American citizens. Mr.
Hitt chairman OF the Foreign Relat tims
Committee, called up his bill yesterda V
making it an offense with punishment
for an American citizen 0engagei in pela sic
sealing directly or indirectly, and after
vigorous opposition by Mr.. johnson of North
Dakota and some other members the bill
was passed.
Mr.. johnson talked for more than an hour
against the bill, declaring that he coId
not understand why Americans should lie
prevented from doing what British subjects
were permitted to do, and that if the bill
passed the British would lie given a prac-
tical monopoly Of the industry.
Mr.. Hit, during the debate, explained that
it was the hope of the committee that yhe
passage of The bill would be accepted by rhe
| British government as an act of good faith,
and that when that government learned Of
the action Of Congress he believed England
would adopt a similar course of pro-
cedure. He felt certain that it would
result in the protection of seals.
When the bill reaches the Senate 1t is
thought that it will meet strong opposition

Gallinger and Pritchard Seek to

Another attack on the civil service re-
form law was made in the Senate yes
terday, when set speeches in opposition
to thelaw were made by Senators GsllingeT
and Pritclard. Neither Senator advocated
outright repeal, but urged such a modifica =
tion as would open the doors TO many
places that have been put in the classified
list in the last eight years.
During the day Senator Deboe introduced
a bill TO repeal the law outright. His
bill substitutes examinations by the heads
OF departments 0f applicants for places
in their departments, and provides an
eligible list, from whicn the heads of the
departments can select names as they may
choose. The term OF office is fixed for
four years, during which an appointee can
be rent ved only for cause. At the end
of four years such applicants must 0e
reappointed. The law Iegislatcs out OF
office all those now ia at the expirati IN
OF one year fIom the passage of the act,
but provides that they may stand exami
