Policy of the Government in the Bohring Sea Controversy.

AN INTERESTING CORRESPONDENCE.

Secretary Illnlne Make* Public Ills Negotiations with Salisbury anil Other Jlrltlsh Diplomat* Relative to the Heal Fisheries.

THE IIKllniNO SKA DISPUTE. WASHINGTON, July 24.—The official

correspondence between the Secretary of State and tho British Government concerning the Bohrlng soa controversy was submitted to Congress Wednesday by tho President.

In his accompanying lotter of transmittal to the President, Socrotary Blalno, undor dato of liar Harbor, July 10, regrets tho delay in transmission which tho President directed on tho ,11th Inst, and says that tho corrospondoncu is still in progress. Tho correspondence includes thirty separate papers, beginning with a lottor from Mr. Edwards, first: secretary of legation and chargo d'affaires after Minister West's rocall, dated August 24, 1880, and closing with onefrom Socrotary Blalno to Sir Julian Paunoofoto, the British Minister, datod July 10, 1880.

Tho corrospondonco during 1889 Is mostly preliminary,'and tho doslro'U oxprossod on both sides for a settlement of tho question at tho earliest possible moment. Tho solzuro of tho sealers Black Diamond and Triumph by the rovonuo cuttor Hush is mentioned and characterized by tho British foreign office as unwarranted by international law.

Tho corrospondonco between Secny tary Blalno and tho now British Minister bogan January 22 of this year with along lottor from- tho Secretary to Sir Julian Pauncofoto. This lotter may bo fairly taken as setting forth tho position of tho United States in tho controversy.

In this letter tho Secretary defends tho acts complained of by tho British Government on tho following grounds:

Tkat the Canadian vessels arretted and do Valued In llehring sen were engaged la a pursuit contra bonos mores, which of necessity Involves a serious- and permanent injury to the Govornmcnt nnd people of tho United Statos. That tho fisheries hod been In tho undl* turlted possession of KuBSi* from their discovery until tho cession of Alaska to tho Unitod Stutos in 1807, and from this date until 1K81 In tho undisturbed possession of the United SmtCR Government. That it is a fact now hold bcyond-denlal or doubt that the taking of seals in the open sea rapidly louds to the extinction of the species. Ho declnres that while the United Stutes will not withhold from any nation the privileges which they demanded for themselves, whon Alaska was., part of the Russian empire, they arc not dig.'* posod to oxcrcise in the possession any less power or authority thun they were willing to oauccdc to thn imperial Government oT Russia whon Its sovereignty extendod over -them.

He

claims froni friendly nations a recognition of tho same rights and privileges which the same friendly nations always conceded to Russia.

On February 10 Sir Jult&n Pauncofoto

to Sccretury Blalno to inform him that tho British Government was willing to invito the participation of Russia to ronewed negotiations for tho settlement of tho controversy. A lettor from the Marquis of Salisbury Is also included. In this the Mnrquls, replying to the Secretary's argument thut tho seizures of tho Canadian vessels woro justified by tho fact that they were engaged In a pursuit that Is in itself contra bonos mores, inquires:

First, whether the pursuit and killing

fur

seals in eertuin parts of tho open sea is, from tho point of vlew\)f international morality, an offense contra bonos mores,and secondly, whether, If such bo the case, tho fact Justifies tho seizure on tho high seas and subsequent confiscation la time of pcuco of the private vessels of a friendly nation. It is an axiom of international maritime law that such action Is only admissible In the caso of piraey or in pursuance of spoclal international agreement. Tho pursuit of seals in tho open soa, under whntevor circumstances, has never hitherto been considered as piracy by any civilized state. In the case of thn slave trndc, a practice which the civilized world has agreed to look upon with abhorrence, the right of arresting the vessels of another country is oxcrclsod only by special International agreement, nnd no Government has boon allowed that general control of mortals In this respect which Mr. Illnlne claims on behalf of the United States in regard to seal hunting. Her Majesty's Government would derply "»t that tho pursuit of fur seals on tl _.gh soas by British vossels should involve evon tho slightest injury to tho people of tho Unitod Suites. If the cose bo proved they will bo ready to consider what measures can be properly taken for tho remedy of such injury, but they would bo unable on that ground to dopart from a principal on which free commerce on tho high seas depends.

The ae.-ond argument advanced by Mr. Blaine is iut lln 'fur seal fisheries of BehrIng's sea had been exclusively controlled by tho Government of Russia from the original discovery until tho cession of Alaska to the United States in ISO"."

Resi ecting Mr. Blaine's statement of the exclusive monopoly enjoyed by Russia, tho Marqyis quotes from Mr. John Quincy Adams' letter to the United States Minister in Russia (which nation in itai prohibited all foreign vossels from approaching within 100 miles from the coast of Behrlng straits to tho 61st degree uorth lutilude) to the oflcct that the United States could admit no part ot these claims. He ala citos the caso of tho Unitod States brig Larlot to show that the right

of

fishing thus asserted included the right

of

killing fur-bearing animals. Tho brig was forced by an armed Russian naval vessel

to

leave tho waters, lie also argues from the speoch of Mr. Rumncr, when Introducing tho question of tho purchase nf Alaska to Congress, in which ho said: "No sea is now mare eiausum all of these may be pursued by a ship under any flag, except directly on the coast or within the territorial limit." Bays the Marquis in conclusion: "Tho negotiations now being carried on at Washington prove tho readiness of her Majesty's Govcrmunont to consider whether any special International agreement is necessary for the protection of tho fur-seal Industry. In its absence thoy are unable to admit that tho case put forward on behalf of the United States affords any sufficient Justification for the forcible action already taken by them against peaceable subjects of her Majesty onguged in lawful operations on the high seas."

A number ot letters exchanged during May and Juno of tills year embody suggestions by Secretary Blalno to tho Marquis of Salisbury that the lattor forbid British ships covering Behrlng sea during tho present beason, so that time may bo had to settle the question. Tho British Prime Minister replies that ho has no power to lssuo or enforcc such an order.

On Juno 14 Sir Julian Pauncofoto, having failod to secure an assurance from Buuretary' Blaine that British sealing vossels would not

be interfered with auring tho negotiations, proseated a formal protest in tho usual diplomatic form.

Then followed a scries of propositions and counter-propositions looking to arbitration, in which tr.e questions at lsuuo are gone over again, apparently without result, neither side being willing to concudu certain indispensable points.

correspondence, which would. If printed entire, fill over- twenty newspaper, columns, wos addressed by Mr. Blaine to Sir Julian Pauncefota from bar Harbor last Saturday. In it the Se» retarysaya: "I am Instructed by the President to say that the United States is willing to consider all tha proceedings of April 16,1888, as canceled, so far as American rights may bo concerned. This Government will ask Great Britain to adhere

nto

IN CONGRESS.

The House Continues Its Debate of the Bankruptcy Bill. While the Senate Dlseuasra Indian Appropriations.

WASHINGTON 'July 34.—Tho. House having resttinecl (discussion of the bankruptcy bill Wednesday, Mr. Abbott (Tex.) said ho w6uld approve of a bankruptcy bill which would do Justice to tho honest debtor and protect the hop.estoreditor against the dishonost debtor, but this was a measure in tho lnterest of tho creditor class. Mr. Frank (Ma) said tho bill' was the product :of experienced minds which had operated to bring to this body what ho conceived to be the best p*e0o of legislation that had over been presented to tho House. Mr. McCord (Wis.) said lt'^as a bill In tho Interest of wholesale dealers, United States marshals, attorneys and oourt Officers, professional rocolvers and lawyers, who would bo enriched by the operations of the law. Mr. Perkins (Kan.) thought that tho main features of tho bill wero' right and equitable. Mr. Kolley (Kan.) regarded tbe provision requiring that the reterece should be members of the legal profession as a 'gratuitous insult!to the members of other hrofesslons. Mir. Peel (Ark.) thought the effect of tbe law would bo to increase speculation. Mr. Adams (111.), Mr. Kerr (la.) and Mr. McAdoo (N. J.) supported the measure. Mr. Breckinridge (Ky.) and Mr. Buchanan (N. J.)opposod the bill. Mr. Boatner (La.) contended that the involuntary bankruptcy clause shotild apply only to merchants, traders and manufacturers. E. B,. Taylor (O.) dosed tho debate with "a brief Bpeech In advocacy of tho measure, which then went over.

The Tndia« appropriation. bill was takon up again, by, the Senate Wednesday and discussed at- length.
