ment that the seal herd was being wiped
cut by pelagic sealing. After spending six
weeks on the Commander islands and
visiting Robin island, Mr.. Hamilton
joined Professor Thompson on the Pribi-
lofs. There the commission remained un-
til the end of October. The Canadian
and United States commissioners, Messrs.
Mckeown and Clark, were also on the
Pribilofs at the time. Mr.. Hamilton says
they received most friendly treatment
from the Americans, who behaved in
very fair way. Owing to the exceptional
powers given to the Americans by their
government, they were able to do more
than has been previously accomplished.
Among other things a census of every
seal island was taken. This shows that
there were 10000 seals on the Pribilofs
and proved that the American estimates
Of previous years were much below this
mark. An important piece of work was
the counting of dead pups The Ameri-
cans claimed that owing to the killing at
sea of a number of breeding females a
vast number of pups were left to starve.
They said that as high as 10000 were
killed in this way. 1t was, therefore, val
liable to know how many dead pups there.
were. There were large number of
dead-about II ,000-that it was proved
had been killed by overcrowding before
and about 10000 had died later in the
season.
The results of the Investigations on the
spot have tended to prove to the minds
of the commissioners that although it
had been said that the seal industry
would collapse in two years, there is no
fear of such an early extinction of the
fur seal. No doubt is entertained, now
that the question has been approached
in such an amicable way, some meas
ures for the protection of the seal will be
adopted. The large decrease in this
years catch of seals is no doubt due in
part to the bad weather prevailing in the
early part of August. 1t does not neces-
sarily indicate a decrease in the number
of seals On this point opinion is divid-
ed the Canadians saying that the deals
on the Pribilofs have increased in num-
bers, while the Americans say they have
decreased The commissioners are now
preparing their reports and will have
them in the hands of the foreign office by
spring. No doubt fresh commission
will be appointed this year in order to
report any change as compared with last
years condition.

THIS WEEK.
FOR IN INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
Senator Chandler Will Introduce the Bill
Today-Hawaiian Gable Bill May
Bop Up-Forecast for the House
for the Coming Week.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE friends of
the Nicaraguan canal bill expect it to be
taken up early in the week, and that it
will retain its place ut the head of the
calendar until disposed of. The bill will
lead to considerable debate, before being
voted upon, but its advocates are hopeful
of its passage. Senator Morgan will
have charge of the measure in the senate
and will try to reach vote before the
end of the week. His success in that
undertaking will depend upon this Many
senators desire to speak on the bill, so
far as indicated.
Senator Perkins will make an effort if
opportunity offers, to get up bill for n
non-partisan labor commission, and in this
he is likely to be antagonized by Senator
Frye with the Hawaiian cable bill.
Senator Chandler will introduce the
caucus committees bill for an interna-
tional monetary conference on Monday
and will ask to have it voted ON on next
; Tuesday without going to q committee.
SO far Senator Pettigrew is the only
member or the senate VINO mas announced
an intention to oppose the bill by q vote,
while it is anticipated that Others while
giving it no effective opposition, will ex-
press the opinion that nothing can be ac'

Mr.. Pettigrew will make speech
against the bill, taking the position that
to seek an international agreement places

. London, Jan. 1.-THE mission of Sen
atOr Wolcott of Colorado to Europe
is the all-absorbing topic in financial cir
cles. Thus far the senator has been
content to sound English feeling rather
than expound his views, and the dinner
which Mr.. Henry White, formerly secre
tary of the United States legation here,
gave on January IL to u number of dis
tinguished people in, order to enable
them to meet Senator Wolcott, was an
excellent opportunity for him to do so.

Balfour, first lord of the treasury end
government leader of the house of com
mons; the Marquis of Landsdowne, sec
rotary of state for war; Mr. William
Court Gully, speaker of the house of
commons; Lord de Rothschild and Mr..
Henry Asquith, formerly secretary of
state for home affairs. The dinner was
Il striking example of Mr.. Whites posi-
ton in England, as there are few men
who are able to collect such gathering
at short notice.
A representative of the Associated
Press had brief talk with Mr.. Balfour,
who at first was reluctant to say any
thing on the subject for publication on
account Of his official position. But he
remarked: you can be sure that this
is from no lack of interest in the cause
However, you may say that l have had

suits to the cause of bimetallism in. this

Lord Rothschild was of the opinion
that whatever benefit would be derived
from the senator's mission would be en-
the continent rather than in England,
adding:
1T depends on whatever action the
powers that be in France and Germany
will take. Senator Wolcott will UNI
doubtedly confer with Emperor William
and M. Melline (he French premier)."
Lord Rothschild also said that he re-
garded Senator Wolcott as an able man.

FIRST WOMAN CITIZEN
Rer Sturdy Lads and Clever Lasses Become
Prominent Citizens What Some Of
them Accomplished.
From the Negs, indianapolis, Ind.

Hundreds Of thousands Of men of foreign
birth have taken out papers declaring their
citizenship IN Indiana since that State was
admitted into the Union in 1916 without
creating remark or comment. 1t was a diff
ferent matter, however, when along in the
torties the first woman of foreign birth ap-
piled for and received papers of citizenship.
This " first woman citizen" was an Irish
widow who settled in southern Indiana with
her progeny of sturdy lads and clever laSses
upon a farm which she had bought.
"The Widow Ryan" az she was known
In Davies County, Indiana, was a great
woman with clever business head and left
behind her those who grew to be worthy
men and worthy women, and who have lett
their impress upon the State.
One of these sons James r. Ryan became
treasurer of the State of Indiana, and SON
in-law, NJ. L. Brett, also held that high and
honorable position. Another son was the
late Lieut.. Col. Richard j. Ryan who was
probably the most brilliant and gifted orator
that Indiana ever produced, and who during
the war for the Union served his country in
the Thirty fifth Indiana Volunteer Infantry
better known as the Irish Regiment"
Another son is Thomas +. Ryan who is
now SO years old, and with few intervals of
absence has been resident of indianapolis
for forty-two years
In the early fifties smitten by the gold
fever he went by way of the Isthmus of
Panama to California. He has been all over
the far west engaged in mining and trade
operations in Oregon, Arizona and Montana
From May, 1885 until August, 1887 he was
the government agent at the Seal Islands off
the Alaska coast, highly responsible posi-
ton.
