countries aro roadv to follow in tho wake

Tho Department of Stato has been no
tified of the appointment by the British
government of Sir George Baden I'owoll
and Mr. Dawson as agents to visit Alaska
and collect information respecting the
seal fisheries. Tho statement coming
from London that these men had been
appointed arbiters is erroneous. Tho
negotiations looking to tho arbitration of
the claims mado by tho United States
havo not yet progressed to a point that
would permit tho appointment of arbi-
ters, and in fact the nature of
tlio arbi
tration tteeii lias not neon agreed upon.
It mav bo that Powell and Dawson will
hereafter servo as representatives of tho
British government upon the expert
commission, which tho two nations aio
bound to send to Alaska, but it in alto
gether improbable that they will be ap
pointed arbiters, as their previous duties
might be supposed to unfit tlmm to act
judicially in the matter where they for
merly acted as partisan exports.
