seal fi.-herics in Behring sea. In
an accompanying letter trans
mitted to tn.- president, Secretary
Bl -ine, under date of Bar Harbor,
luly 19, regrets the delay in trans
mission, whi'-h the president di
rected on the llth install), and
says that correspondence is still in
progress.
Tne corresjiondence includes 30
separate papers, beainninir wiih a
letter from Edwards, litst secretary
of legation a id charge d'aflair
after Minister West's recall, dated.
Vi'sriist 24, 18S!. and closing with
one from Secretary Blaine to Sir
lulia'i Pauncefcte, British minis
:er. dated July 1!, ISthl.
Blaine says it is the opinion of
the president that the Canadian
ve-s-ls arres'e-l and detained in
the Behring sea were engaged in a
pursuit of itself contra bones
mores.a pursuit which of necessity
involves a serious and permanent
injury to the rights of the govern
ment and the euple oi the nited
States.
The secretary then speaks of the
seal fisheries, which were con
trolled by Russia without inter
ference, till the session of Alaska
to the United States in 1SS7. This
undisturbed concession continued
to the United States iiil 1836. pass
ing whaling vessels abstaining

uniform measure of all attempts to
take lu" seals in those waters had
lcen a constant recogniiion of the
rittht held and exerci-ed. first by
itussia and subsequently by this
government. It htd also been a
recogniiion of the fact now held
of a broad denial or doubt that
die taking of seal in the oien sea
rapidly leads to distinction,
'ertain Canadian vessels in 18SG
tsserted their light to enter and
bv a rntbles course destroy the
ishries. The government of the
United -states at once .proceeded to
cnck this move.
The ground on which her
majesty's government justifies, or
.it least" defends, the course of the
Canadian vessels, rests on the fact
that they are committing their
icts ol destruction on the high
seas. It now awaits any proposi
tion for a reasonable adju-tment
vh'ch hr majesty'- g tverninen
may submit. The fore b'e resist
ance to winch this government is
constrained in the behnn sea is.
in the pr- si lent's judgment, de

for defending the traditi nal long
