Agreement signed on fur seal treaty with Britain in Behring Sea
The United States and Great Britain signed a modus vivendi for the Behring Sea sealing season. It prohibits killing seals east of the demarcation line of 1867 with subsistence exceptions for Paul and St. George islands. Violations may be seized and tried by each country, and damages to Canadian sealers may be arbitrated. The renewal adds a clause for Canadian vessel claims and outlines US preparations for arbitration.
