COMMERCE WITH
 PRIBILOF ISLANDS
Statement of the Products of These Little-Known Island for
 Past Year

Commerce Of the lonely Pribilot islands in Boring sea, a part of Alas ka, is being steadily but slowly de- yoloped.
 Preliminary figures for the 1918 census of fur seals on the Pribilof islands show that the approximate total number of tho Alaskan herd was 4g6.GOO In 1918. as compared Co 4GS.gG2 m 1917. Tho number Of pups born was 143.OO5 and tho num- bcr Of breeding cows was tho same The average horom based on a count of seven rookerics was 26.7G. This census did not include tho 33,- SSi seals taken during Che present year.
 The bureau of fisheries had ou- thorlzed a take of 35,OOO skins dur ing the regular killing season which ended on August 10, but only 33,- SS1 were taken. or this number, 7OOO were taken on st George isl- and and 2G.SS1 on SC. Paul island. A few seals will be killed from time Co time during the remainder of the year for Che purpose Of furnishing fresh meat for the natives
 By Che terms of che North Pacific Scaling convention of July 2, 1911, fifteen per cont of this years take of tho skins belongs to tho Canadian government and a like proportion Co Che Japanese government There win be no actual delivery of these skins but under a provision of the convention. Che market value of the skins win bo credited to the rcspec- tive governments as an offset to ccr- tain payments made by them to the United States.
 Nearly a thousand bags of un- ground and 32l bags Of ground bone from SC. George island, landed by the Roosevelt ut Seattle on July t were sold late in July Co Brady & Co.,, of that place. The gross weight aggregated SG,OlO pounds, while Che net weight of bones was SO,O92 pounds At S29 per ton. Che gross proceeds amounted Co S1,161.33. After deducung expenses, $7O.75 for weighing and rcsacking, the net proceeds amounted to $1,O9O.5S From this sum it Is expected that there will be deducted $4OO.4G, due to Che natives, who are paid at the rate of ouc-holf cent per pound for gathering the bone. The balance win then be turned into Che treas ury Of Che United States.

RUSS BLAMED FOR CONFLICT
Quotes Asquith About Britain Being
open to Receive Genuine Peace
Offer and Says "That, Too, Is
Our Policy"

Amsterdam, June 2T.-Reviewing
the military situation in the reiehstag
at Berlin DIR. Richard Won Kuehlmann,
foreign secretary, declared that vic
tories had given the Germans the ini-
tlative In France.
I'VE can hope that the summer and
autumn will bring to our arms new
and great success" he continued.
when one makes wide survey of
events one must ask whether the war,

or beyond the next year. There is a
common idea among the people that
the length of the war Is something abb
solutely new. as If tae authoritative
quarters had in orr time never reek-
oned on very long war. This idea
is Incorrect"
DIR. Won Kuehlmann quoted Won
Moltke, who in 1890 in the reichstag
said that If war broke out its duration
and end could not be calculated.
''The declarations of our enemies,
especially of English statesmen, allow
as yet no peaceful ray of light to fall
on the darkness of this war"
Germany cannot bind herself to any
pledges In regard TO Belgium, Doctor
Kuehlmann said. and that in view of
Germany's resources ''our enemies
must perceive that the idea of victory
for the entente Is dream"
ola afaf sod
that, considering the magnitude of the
war, its end can hardly be expected
through purely military decisions alone
and without recourse TO diplomatic ne.
gotiations.
I'VE wish for the German people
and our allies free, strong, independ-
ent existence within the boundaries
drawn for rs Sy history" DR.. Won
Kuehlmann said. ave desire overseas
possessions corresponding to our
greatness and wealth, the freedom of
the seas carrying our trade TO all
parts of the world"
Quoting from former Premier AS
quith's speech Of May is. in which the
British statesman said that the allies
would not turn deaf ear 10 II peace
proposal If 1t was not couched In am
biguous terms, DIR. Won Kuehlmann de-
clared:
"We likewise can make the same
declaration. knowing 1t to be also our
policy.
"At no moment of our later history
was there less occasion for us to start
or contribute to the starting of con-
fiagration than the moment in which
II occurred"
Chief blame for instigating the war
was laid at Russia's door by DIR. Won
Kuehlmann. France and England
were named as the next powers in or
der of culpability.
