termined TO report some final settlement on

madam experts as 10 the basis for their APP
praisa.s of the value OF the Canadian seal
Ing fleet The line of examination has
shown that one of the vital differences be-
tween the two SIDES IL as TO what vessels
ere rightfuily included within the sealing
fleet The Canadians contend these vessels
include not only the thirty which engaged
in sealing last year. but also a large num-
her which are Ia that business but did not
actually engage in II. because Of restric-
tions Placed upon the industry by the
American government. on the other hand.
the American contention is that only such
as actually engaged in the sealing business
are 70 he considered. and that any other
construction practically opens to the ship
ping Of the whole Pacific ocean the right

In a general way It was stated after tho
