William L. Putnam argues the 1888 treaty with Great Britain and Canada curbs harbor dues, clarifies shelter and supply rights under the 1818 accord, limits penalties for illegal fishing, and secures provisions for vessels in distress while preserving maritime reciprocity. He warns against retaliation that could harm Portland and New England fishing interests.
