THINKS IT WAS CITT AND DRIED
John Bull Has His Opinion of the New
Sealing Treaty

London, Nov. 6.-The British officials
regard the prompt agreement arrived at
between the United States, Russia and
Japan, providing for a temporary sus-
pension Of pelagic sealing, as a vindica-
ton Of their refusal TO enter into con-
ference and as demonstration of their
contention that an understanding existed
between the three countries. 1t is not
likely that Great Britain Will consent to
stop sealing. Her maiesty's government
confidently expects a settlement of the
question by the United States purchas-
Ing the Canadian interests.
