A resolution heretofore offered by Mr. Spooner, calling on the Secretary of War for a statement of war claims on which there has been adverse action by the Department was taken up, discussed and adopted. - ‘MR, MORGAN CONTINUES HIS REMARKS ON THE FISHEKIES TREATY. ‘ThejSenate then, at 11:40, went into open exe- cutive session on the fisheries treaty, and Mr. Mor- gan resumed his argument in favor of ratification. He said he had not heretofore undertaken a con- secutive discussion of what he concelved to be the Teal yalueot the treaty; but had followea other Senators along, from tine to time, in irrelevant and Unnecessary debate, ‘The Msbing industry had Rever depended solely on the legislation of the United States, nor solely on the conditions of its treaty relations with Great Britain and Canada, Dut had been controlled in a large degree by the fluctuations incident to the fish themselves—fuc- tuations not to be accounted for on any well- established theories, but generally referred by sclenusis to the temperature of the water in dif~ ferent seasons, Much the langest tonnage engaged 4n the fisheries appeared by the statistics to have een during the years ot the civil war—from 1801 UNCERTAIN STATISTICR, Mr. Frye remarked that no statistics in regard to the fishing business were at all reliable. One cir- cumstance that would account for some of the falling off in the tonnage engaged in fisheries, after 1865, was the repeal of the bounty laws in 1566; aud’ another circumstance was a cl in ihe ineasurement of vessels, Arguments derived froin such statistics were very uncertain, to say the least Mr. Morgan felt himself, nevertheless, authorized tolnfer that, Inusinueh “hs under the democratic method up td 1861, the fisheries tonnage had pro- gressively increased, While from 1861 to 1883 It has progressively decreased, the constant reduction of the tarlif in the first period accounted for the 1n- crease, While the republican method, under Une ‘arf Of 1871 and 1883, accounts for the decrease, MK.
