1120 NORTH ATLANTIC COAST FISHERIES ARBITRATION. 



P. 308 of the Appendix to the Case, the last sentence in the last para- 

 graph of Mr. Rush's letter : 



" I mention this, perceiving, from the newspapers, that there had 

 been fresh captures of our fishing vessels during the last season, fol- 

 lowed by sentences of condemnation." 



You might give us the circumstances under which these captures 

 had been made, on Monday. I have not been able to find anything 

 with regard to them. 



MR. WARREN: Without delaying the Tribunal now, I will answer 

 that question Monday. 



SIR CHARLES FITZPATRICK: Yes. 



THE PRESIDENT: The Court is adjourned until Monday at 10 

 o'clock. 



[Thereupon, at 4.6 o'clock p. m., the Tribunal adjourned until Mon- 

 day, the llth July, 1910, at 10 o'clock a. m.] 



TWENTY-SECOND DAY: MONDAY, JULY 11, 1910. 



The Tribunal met at 10 a. m. 



THE PRESIDENT : Will you continue, Mr. Warren, please ? 



MR. WARREN : Before proceeding with the line or argument which 

 I was presenting just before the last adjournment, I have now the 

 books necessary for use in answering the question which the President 

 put to me regarding the contention of the United States before the 

 Behring Sea or Fur Seal Arbitration Tribunal in 1893. 



The question appears at the middle of p. 662 of the report of these 

 proceedings and reads: 



" THE PRESIDENT : If you please, sir : As you recur several times to 

 the Behring Sea Arbitration, may I repeat a question which I 

 675 asked this morning, and the answer to which you deferred: 

 What was the position that the United States took in the Beh- 

 ring Sea Arbitration concerning its rights as to the successor of 

 Kussia, in consequence of the treaties of 1824 and 1825?" 



Undoubtedly, Mr. President, you intended to confine the question 

 to the treaty of 1825? 



THE PRESIDENT: Yes. 



MR. WARREN : I will proceed to that question, and after answering 

 that question, I will take up the question which Sir Charles Fitz- 

 pa' trick put to me just before the adjournment on Friday. 



Counsel on behalf of Great Britain in this submission did not dis- 

 cuss in oral argument the position taken by the United States in the 

 Fur Seal Arbitration in 1893, but two extracts from the printed Argu- 

 ment of the United States in that arbitration are set forth in the 

 Printed Argument suohiitted by Great Britain to this Tribunal,
