othetu he
These conferences will bo Independent of
the Bering Sea seal fisheries conference
which was tho Immediate occasion for tho
Canadian premiers present visit to AVash

Among tho causes of friction between
tho two countries Is tho question of tho
rights of citizens of either to pursue busi-
ness callings In tho territory of tho other
nnd tho fttirlft question The ronferenco
this afternoon was brought about by a
noto from Secretary Sherman this morning

tho new congressional library
Todays conferenco began at 11 oclock
with n full representation of tho llrltish
Canadian and American wftlilnls For the
first tlmo tho statistics ot the catch of seals
of Ihn year Just clewing were available
Thcso wero compiled by tho American offi-
cials and brought out prominently two
features which wero regarded as most Im-
portant In supporting tho American coti
tontionR namely that the witch had fallen
ff about onehalt during tho present sea
son showing conclusively In tho opinion
of tho American expert that tho seal herd
woi being rapidly wiped out and second
that tho catch of seals from the American
Islands In Bering sea was about IB to t
as between tho Canadian scales under the
llritlsh flag and AmcrKwn seulers Thu
smno proportion1 ns shown to exist
tlnaughout tho waters of tho North Inclflc
In detail Hit figures for this seasons
catch are as follows Total ratch of seals
In tho Ncrth Pacific for tho ptesent ea
non 3S700 against 73000 last > eir The
ltal catch this year Is divided as follows
Taken by British vessels SOfcoo by Amerl
cau vessels 4100 by Japanese vesscli 3S00
The catch In Bering sen which la Unit
portion of tho North Pacltlc In which tho
United States Is Interested Is 10050 for
tho present seiuon against 23500 last sea-
son u rrduetlon of about onehalf Of thu
catch In Bering ma llritlsh vessels took
15600 American vessels 1050 Tho figures
make no distinction boLwccn British nnd
Canadian vessels an practically till the
sailing Is dene by Canadian vessels which
however are ttnmlualiy classrd a Drltlfh
The falling off of tvhout onohaU of I ho
total catch both In H eilng sea and the
North Pacific In said to ho mest significant
In view ot tho circumstances Tho pres-
ent season Is better one tho exports say
for tho taking cf seals than last season
Under thrao clreumvlanrc It is said that
the conclusion to bo drawn from this years
figures Is that tho seal herd has been greatly
reduced by tho Indiscrinlnatn slaughter at
the alarming ralo of about onohalt in thu
last ytur
At todays Bering sea ernferenco the re
port ot Profcwor Lucns upon the habits of
tho seal was read as wero also the reiwrts
