THE SEAL SLAUGHTER. \ BtertMns UlsrlMarM froai th# Saal.BriaA tec EHehty IVr l>nl. of th* QMeh F.ut.lfj, Whit* Sucklosr r»»>* hjt th* Toottikiul kN Loft to Ul* or Stew Starvation— t‘a»v K ffotl* by the I'althi Statt* to Mat th* Slaughter. Wasui3»ios, Nor. SA—The revenue eutter ‘’Bear"*—the last government rossel to leave Behring sea this fall— brought some startling evidence of the effect of pelagic sealing upon the Alaskan seal herd which frequent the fVibvloff or seal Islands. In accordance with the fia lings of he Baris arbitration, schooners are now permitted to hunt seals in Behring sea with spears in a aone sixty tulles around the islands after the 1st of August. This gives them about fire weeks of good sealing. It was thought that eo’nSning seal* ing schooners to spears and reducing the season to practically fire or six weeks would put a stop to the slaughter in Behring sea. and allow the herds to'recuperate. This year not less than sixty Schooners began hunting in Behring sea August 1 and captured j nearly 40.000 pelts, about 80 per cent. I of which were from females. This, however, does not show the } full extent of the injury ’done. The ] seal pups are dependent on their j mothers’ tuilk for the tirsV-four or five j mouths of existence, and" without it, | the little creatures must suffer the lingering death of starvation. Acting under instructions of their respective supervisors, both resident treasury officials and agents of the j North American Commercial C»v made ! a careful count of the dead pup&fouud I at the close of the season, when seal* j ing schooners had left the sea. The j census, which was just completed !

tv hen the ‘Bear” left, reached 27.000. It did not include those iu the last stages of starvation. The same conditions prevailed last year, but the count was made with less exactness cn account of suovvv The actual pecuniary loss to the United States atvd the commercial world by this needless waste of aui* mal life will reach hundreds of thou- : sands of dollars. The United States, which has never 1 allowed the molestation of seals on j breeding grounds, or the killing of I female seals on laud, made a puny of- ! fort last year to stay the slaughter go- i ing on by limiting the land, killing to ] 15.000 mature males, but as this situ- ; ply gave the hunters so much addt- ; tional prey it is questionable if in the . light of existing conditions and the ! report of treasury officials further re- j straint will be exercised, especially as j a request made last January by the United States to Great Britain for i greater protection to the seals, has | been practically ignored. LIGHT SENTENCES for a Mott Diabolical and DUgrarefal Crime Against Humanity. London. Nov. 25.—The trial of the officers of the British vessel Why Not for deserting the ship while on fire, leaving the passengers to their fate, resulted in the conviction of Capt. William Wilkinson and Mate Arthur Wilkinson. The captain was sentenced to six months* and the mate to two months’ imprisonment at hard labor at Guernsey. The judge who presided at the trial, in pronouncing sentence, declared that the conduct of the officers aud crew of the vessel was a disgrace to the nation. While the vessel was on her way to the Island of Jersey in June last, a fire was discovered in her hold. While the ! sailors were attempting to put out t he ; fire a bueket was accidentally dropped overboard. A boat was lowered *o re- ! cover it, whereupon the captain jumped . into the boat ami was followed by the crew. One of the passengers jumped ; overboard and swam to the boat, into j which he was taken. The passengers ; remaining on board handled tire ves- j sel as best they could, and managed to j beach her at Frony, where the cap- ; tain and boat's crew also landed. A CRISIS AT HAND.

St. Louis, Nov. 25.—Information from British Guiana is to the effect that the. administration, acting upon in- I structions from the imperial govern- ! ment, has made a declaration to the British Guiana legislature which clear- j ly indicates that unless Venezuela j withdraws her claims to the greater j part of the territory iu dispute the imperial government is prepared to assert the rights of British Guiana by force of arms, and the colonial legislature has voted to the governor, in executive council, an open check for war expenses.
