been fixed; that instructions have been
issued to preserve five times the numb Der
OF males actually needed for breeding
purposes, and that all killing is to be
done under the supervision of a trained
naturalist. as well as of the agent in
charge.
Referring to the decision to kill super
f1uous males, Mr.. Cable says it was ar
rived at after consideration of the advice
of the following experts: DR.. David
Starr Jordan, president Of Stanford Uni
versity, by many regarded as the great
est living naturalist; DIR. L. Stejneger.
curator Of herpetology in the United
States National Museum and resi-
dent for two years on the Com

tor Of the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and
Sciences; DR.. Barton Warren Ever

Chichester assistant fur seal agent for
twenty years, most of the time on the

The charge against Special Agent

less and extravagant on its face" adding
that it has been investigated and found
to be without any basis whatever in
fact"
