234 THE FUR SEALS OF THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS. 
As to the third of the said five points, as to so much thereof as requires us to 
decide whether the body of water now known as Bering Sea was included in-the 
phrase “Pacific Ocean,” as used in the treaty of 1825 between Great Britain and 
Russia, we, the said arbitrators, do unanimously decide and determine that the body 
of water now known as Bering Sea was included in the phrase “ Pacific Ocean” as 
used in the said treaty. 
And as to so much of the said third point as requires us to decide what rights, if 
any, in Bering Sea were held and exclusively exercised by Russia after the said treaty 
of 1825, we, the said Baron de Courcel, Mr. Justice Harlan, Lord Hannen, Sir John 
Phiempson, Marquis Visconti Venosta, and Mr. Gregers Gram, being a majority of the 
said arbitrators, do decide and determine that no exclusive eas of jurisdiction in 
Bering Sea and no exclusive rights as to the seal fisheries therein were held or 
exercised by Russia outside of ordinary territorial waters after the treaty of 1825. 
As to the fourth of the said five points, we, the said arbitrators, do unanimously 
decide and determine that all the rights of Russia as to jurisdiction and as to the seal 
fisheries in Bering Sea east of the water boundary, in the treaty between the United 
States and Russia of the 30th March, 1867, did pass unimpaired to the United States 
under the said treaty. 
As to the fifth of the said five points, we, the said Baron de Courcel, Lord Hannen, 
Sir John Thompson, Marquis Visconti Venosta, and Mr. Gregers Gram, ein g a majority 
of the said arbitrators, do decide and determine that the United States has not any 
right of protection or property in the fur seals frequenting the islands of the United 
States in Bering Sea when such seals are found outside the ordinary 3-mile limit. 
And whereas the aforesaid determination of the foregoing questions as to the 
exclusive jurisdiction of the United States, mentioned in Article VI, leaves the subject. 
in such a position that the concurrence of Great Britain is necessary to the establish- 
ment of regulations for the proper protection and preservation of the fur seals in or 
habitually resorting to Bering Sea, the tribunal having decided by a majority as to 
each article of the following regulations, we, the said Baron de Courcel, Lord Hannen, 
Marquis Visconti Venosta, and Mr. Gregers Gram, assenting to the whole of the nine 
articles of the following regulations, and being a majority of the said arbitrators, do 
decide and determine in the mode provided by the treaty that the following concurrent 
regulations outside the jurisdictional limits of the respective Governments are 
necessary, and that they should extend over the waters hereinatter mentioned; that 
is to say: 
REGULATIONS 
ARTICLE 1, 
The Governments of the United States and of Great Britain shall forbid their 
citizens and subjects, respectively, to kill, capture, or pursue at any time and in any 
manner whatever the animals commonly called fur seals within a zone of 60 miles 
around the Pribilof Islands, inclusive of the territorial waters. 
The miles mentioned in the preceding paragraph are geographical miles, of 60 to 
a degree of latitude. 
ARTICLE 2. 
The two Governments shall forbid their citizens and subjects, respectively, to kill, 
capture, or pursue, in any manner whatever, during the season extending each year
