Behriilg Sea has been for several days the subject of many rumors, pro bably because ; of the fact that the sealing season will be open in a few days.

But little is known positively of the prcsent status of the matter, Hence ; the rumors. the special agents of the Treasury deprrt- ment nave recommended that all seal ing be stopped I'or one or more seasons, io prevent extinction or the seals, and sir Julian rauitceiote, the tintish mm isier,-has intimated that Jiis -srovern ment would agtjee to thatxit the United States would ee that "its citizens c-aughUno seals.

Secreiary Faster has sent A. StnnW "Brown, once tire private secretary of i resutent uraheld, to examine and re port to him the. condition of the seals.
