TO SAVE THE SEALS
Ex-Minister Phelps SpeaKs for the
United States.
A NUMBER OF VISITORS PRESENT
The British Counsel Did Not Approach
the Question in a Straight
, forward Way.
Hon. E. J. Phelps, of counsel for the
United States, opened his argument in
behalf of the contention of the United
States, and his ad
dress was a brilli
ant one. America
headed the claims
thatthe indiscrimi
nate destruction of
the seals, including
the slaughter of the
gravid animals pro
ceeding toward the
Pribyloff islands,
herding grounds,
and of the mothers seeking food at sea,
is inhuman, barbarous and a violation
of the laws of all eivilized nations for
the protection of wild animals in their
breeding season. Such slaughter, he
contended, mast eventually result in
extinguishing a valuable industry, es
tablished for nearly a century by Rus
sia, and maintained by the United
States in the. session of Alaska to the
United States by the Russian govern
ment. The British claimed the right to
exterminate the species for the sake of a
small temporary profit. They do not
meet the question as to whether the
right existed, but exhaust the resources
of the ablest advocacy to evade it. The
British counsel approached the question
in every direction except a straightfor
ward one. They pretended to inquire if
the United States were justified in seiz
ing British vessels engaged in seal hunt
ing. Mr. Phelps declared there was no
such question before the tribunal.
In his argument before the arbitra
tors in the Behring sea case Mr. Cou
dert, of counsel for the United States,
gave an interesting account of the
habits of the Alaskan seal, over the
proprietorship of which the whole con
test is being waged. The peculiar
thing about these seals is that, al
though in their journey from the south
to their stamping grounds in the "
Behring they pass islands innumera
ble, they invariably select two groups,
and only two, as .their summer home.
One of these is on the coast of Asia
and is known as Comma nderofE. The
other is- the Pribyloff islands, two in
number St. Paul and St. George off
the Alaskan shore. These islands are
but specks in the surrounding waters.
St. Paul contains but thirty-two square
miles and St. George twenty-seven
square miles. Why these two groups
should be selected is what no natural
lis has as yet been able satisfactorily
to explain. Nevertheless the fact re
mains that it is to them and to them
alone that the seals annually resort
while in northern waters.
About this season of the year the
Pacific ocean north of the fortieth de
gree of north latitude is liberally
"sprinkled with seals on their way from
southern waters to their northern sum
mer resort. The males appear to be
more rapid swimmers than the females.
At all events they arrive at the islands
a week or two ahead of the females.
On reaching them they immediately
proceed to select quarters on them for
their summer abode, and these quar
ters are always at some point near the
sea, from which it is easily accessible.
When they arrive they are rolling in
fat and weigh somewhere in the neigh
borhood of five hundred pounds each.
About the beginning of Jun.ejfche fe
males beg-in to arrive and a few hours
MB. COUDBRT, COUNSEL FOB U. S. BEHill.VG
SEA COMMISSION". ,
after reaching the shore they give
birth to their young. The males then
begin choosing their mates, the num
ber of their wives being- limited only
by their capacity of offense and de
fense, tierce conflicts frequently oc
cur over these selections and the
stronger always come out on the top.
While on the islands the male seals
eat nest to nothing.
They appear to live on the superflu
ous fat they have accumulated during
the winter season, and when they start
out again on their southern trip they
are living skeletons. The southern
trip is begun early in August and as a
rule the islands are clear of seals by
the end of that month. A few strag
glers may remain till November, after
which none are seen till the foUowing
May. The male seal is six years of age
before he begins to mate and it is from
the school of bachelors that the lessees
of the islands select the one hundred
thousand they are allowed to kill each
season. These are taken from those
between three and four years of age,
the skins being most valuable at that
time. Of course it is impossible to dis
criminate as to p.e or sex when th.
seals are in the open sea, and there
fore the necessity of preventing the
Canadian poachers from carrying on
their depredations. They kill all they
meet without respect to age or sex.
ELECTRIC FLASHES.
Secretary Carlisle has directed the
July interest on the 4 per cent bonds to
be paid Monday.
A suicide epidemic has broken out in
Buda Pesth and other Hungarian towns.
Sevelf cases of suicide were reported at
Buda Peath yesterday. Cases of insan
ity are increasing. The lunatic asylums
are full.
It has been decided that, owing to the
large number of people who will attend
the funeral of Senator Stanford the ser
vices will be held at the quadrangle of
the university. The funeral oration will
be delivered by Dr. Stebbins.
Lawyer Jennings has no theory which
he can sustain with proof as to who
did commit the Borden murder. Never
theless be says Miss Lizzie Borden and
her sister will leave no stone unturned
to discover, if possible, who the murder
ers are. The hunt is alreadv on aud
will continue.
A fearfully destructive cvclone passed
through Williamstown, Kan., and the
adjacent country half a mile wide and
six miles long, accompanied by a down
pour of rain and the darkness of mid
night. Ten dead bodies are already
discovered, and it is known that at least
five more were killed.
- To Relive the Tightness.
Washington, June 22. Secretary Car
lisle has directed Treasurer Morgan to
anticipate the payment of the July in
terest on 4 per cent United States bends
and on Pacific railroad bonds. Checks
in payment of the interest will be placed
in the mail Sunday afternoon, and all
the subtreasuries in the United States
will be instructed to cash them on pre
sentation. The total interest on both
sets of bonds aggregates $7,534,000, of
which $1,900,000 is for Pacific railroad
bonds, and 5,634,000 for 4 percent bonds.
The action of Secretary Carlisle is taken
to relieve the tightness in money
centers.
THE FROZEN NORTH.
The Daring Explorer Who Propose to
Find the Pole.
The Norwegian explorer, Dr. Fridtjtof
Nansen, will start during the present
month on another expedition in search
of the north pole.
He returned in 1889
from a remarkable
trip across Green
land. Nansen ex
pects to reach the
north pole or its
vicinity by means
of that stream which
he has always be
lieved flows from
Eastern Siberia to
Greenland. He will have. twelve com
panies, all picked men, who can endure
the severe and unusual exposure. Nan
sen expects to leave the coast ajt the ex
treme northern point of the Old World
and go north until the pack ice makes
further progress impossible, when his
men will be left to the mercies of fate.
Nansen is of the opinion that the boat
will not regain its power to navigate un
til it reaches the open sea on the other
side of the pole. He may be gone five
years.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
AUGUSTA. VICTORIA.
The Accomplished Woman Who
Beside Kaiser William.
Slt
Augusta Victoria, the empress of Ger
many, is an attractive and winning wo
man, it not a very
beautiful one. She
was born October 22,
1858, at Schloss
Dolzlg.. She is
three months older
than her husband,
but with her fair
complexion and lux
uriant hair she
looks, if anything,
younger than he
does. The home of
the emperor and empress is very happy.
The empress is a most devoted wife and
mother. She often spends the morning
helping the emperor with his business,
for, with all her housewifely qualities,
she posesses a clear brain and calm
judgment, which are often of great as
sistance to her husband.
KANSAS' LABOR EXCHANGE.
It Is Doing; a Banking Business In Vio
lation of the Law.
Topeka, Kan., June 22. The labor ex
change recently established in this state
by the populists, which issue scrip some
thing like the shin plaster in circulation
in war times, is likely to be disciplined
by Bank Commissioner Bredenthal,
who finds the deposit of money, the pay
ment of interest and the issue of a sub
stitute for money to be a banking busi
ness, and in violation of the state law.
He also finds that the ecrip of the ex
change is under the national law sub
ject to a tax of 10 per cent. The di
rectors of the exchange say that they
have merely issued "a medium of ex
change," and that neither the state nor
the national government has any right
to interfere with them. There has
already been a considerable amount of
of this wildcat money issued, secured by
personal and real property. It is circu
lated largely in the neighborhood as a
money medium, being accepted in all
transactions between members.
BJL.UK BACKS AND STEELHEADS.
Inferior Fish are Plentiful, but
Royal Chinook is Scarce.
the
Astoeia, June 22. The total pack of
salmon for the whole river, up to date,
is estimated at 113,706 cases, and As
toria's pack at 75,816 cases. Fish are
still running slack and no big run has
occurred si nee the season began . Today,
2,161 fish were brought into the local can
neries, many of them, however, being
bluebacks and steelbeads. For the last
five days, these varieties have been very
prevalent and the real salmon are scarce
as ever. Old fishermen declare that this
state of things always precede a big in
flux of the finest fish, but, however
much the business picks up, it is too
late in the season now for the canners to
equal last year's pack. During the last
three days no accidents to fishermen
have been reported.
La Grippe.
During the prevalence of the grippe
the past seasons it was a noticeable fact
that those who depended upon Dr.
King's New Discovery, not only had a
speedy recovery, but escaped all of the
troublesome after effects of the malady.
This remedy seems to have a peculiar
power in effecting rapid cures not only
in cases of la grippe, but in all diseases
of throat, chest and lungs, and has cured
cases of asthma and hay fever of long
standihg. Try it and be convinced. It
won't disappoint. Flee trial bottles at
