Sealing 1« Unprofitable.
S ax F rancisco .—The Alexander, well
known as a sealer, is shipping a crew
for a two-year whaling cruise in the Arc
tic. A. P. Lorentzen is her owner, and
his determination to fit the vessel out
for a whaling cruise was brought about
by the low prices of seal skins. It is
claimed that it costs the vessel $8 for
each skin taken, and as skins are quoted
at such low figures in the Ixmdon mar
ket, the profit is not large enough to
take the risk of running counter to the
new regulations to govern the operations
of the sealers in Northern waters.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.

K yle introduced in the Senate a hill
for the establishment of a national uni

mittee.
The Senate resolution requesting the
President to suspend action in the con
solidation of the land offices until after
the passage of the next sundry civil ap
propriation hill, offered by Teller, was
agreed to.
The House Committee on Judiciary
lias decided to make a favorable report
on the hilt giving Clerks of the Circuit
Courts of California and Nevada twice

tain fees to the amount of $7,000.
A cablegram received by Secretary
Herbert from Admiral Benham at Rio
states that lie had transferred his tlag

His purpose was to allow the San Fran

air. The ships are taking turns at the
duty of staying in the harbor, and it is

The Interstate Commerce Committee
of the Senate the other morning heard
arguments on liehalf of the proposed
amendment to the interstate commerce
law to allow railroad pooling, reasonable
rates to he fixed by the Interstate Com
merce Commission, with the right of
appeal to the Federal Court for final ad
judication. J. K . Counseltnau of Chi
cago, a large grain shipper, made the
argument. George B. Blanchard, Com
missioner of the Central Traffic Associa
tion. ami J. K. Cowen, counsel of the
Baltimore and Ohio, were also heard.
Hawley introduced a resolution in the
Senate that the Secretary of the Interior
send to the Senate the most advanced
copy of the census office returns relative
to manufactures. He explained that
the report was far advanced toward com
pletion during the incumbency of Super
intendent Porter and Secretary Noble,
but had been withheld: hut lie thought
the information should he in possession
of the Senate during the tariff discus
sion. On t He suggestion of Cockrell he
amended the resolution hv directing the
Secretary to state the reasons for the
deiav and directing him to submit the
latest information in his possession. The
resolution as amended was agreed to.
Bryan of Nebraska introduce 1 in the
House a bill to amend the Revised Stat
utes so as to permit in civil cases a ver
dict of three-fourths of the jury and
such verdict have the same force and ef
fect as a unanimous verdict. He said :
“ I have favored this change for several
years, and my attention was called to it
iinew by a suggestion made by Judge
Brewer at the Chicago Union League
Club banquet last Thursday. In civil
cases there is no reason why litigants
should tie compelled to fight until one
can secure a unanimous verdict. Disa
greements are usually caused by one or
two members of the jury, and a three-
fourths verdict would settle most cases,
making a great saving of costs.”

At Astoria Edward Braekhus, “ the

opinions of the people concerning him
are of a decidedly mixed nature. Many
pronounce him a " fa k ir” pure and sim

of anger at tlie failure to expose what
they unhesitatingly pronounce a fraud

At Portland Judge Bellinger has ren

of the Kodiak PackiiigCom pany against
tlie Haytian Republic. On January 17
this steamer was released from the libel
of the United States, and United States
Marshal Grady on the decree of the court
directing him to deliver the vessel to J.
L. Hartman, receiver of the Northwest
Trust and Izian Company, did so, and
simultaneously arrested her on a writ of
the Kodiak Packing Company. The at
torney* for Receiver Hartman claimed
that the vessel, being in the hands of a
receiver in a State court, was without
the jurisdiction of the United States
court, and on this ground excepted to the
libel of the Kodiak Company. The court
dix'ided that the action of the Marshal
in turning the vessel over to the loan
company and then rearresting her docs
not in any way affect the rights of the
parties in the matter, and denied the
exception to the libel.

B e r l i n . — In the Reichstag debate on
the Russo German commercial treaty
was opened. Yon Mirhacii on behalf of
tlie Conservatives gave an explanation
of the reasons which had decided the
party not to eup]iort tlie government,
contending the treaty would prove an
injury to German husbandry greater
than tlie advantages which could possi
bly follow its passage. Von Bibiestein
declared German manufacturers and
merchants secured under the treaty an
estimable \x>on.
Husbandry profited
nothing by tlie present customs tariff,
and agrarians should direct their efforts
toward influencing federal governments
in favor of practical solicitude for Ger
man husbandry. Tlie government could
not surrender at discretion to the de
mands of the agrarians
Count von
Moltke opposed the treaty in the name
of the Imperialists. Rickart urged the
adoption of the treaty, saying the en
trance of Russia into the F.uropean com
mercial community would have impor
tant consequences.

while Mr. M orley’s promise to release

Continuing, the placards say: “ Fiance
